Anybody else listening to Bush stutter in the Rose Garden right now?

[KyndCulture]

http://www.npr.org

has audio...

he's slurring and spitting it sounds like.

[Turbineguy]

1. He gets briefed every day

and it's sobering.

I think Jane Fonda put it well last night. If he weren't born into his family he couldn't get a job filling up cars.

[Bluerthanblue]

40. it was sobering in August of 2001 but he didn't give a shit-

Now it's sobering because of our OWN actions.

His guardians shouldn't let him speak without a script. He was born with a silver foot in his mouth- and a desire to watch those at his mercy suffer.

[hashibabba]

2. Isn't that how he always talks? LOL

I'm watching, but it makes me sick. The real evildoer in this world.

[Not Me]

[Mortos]

7. took him about 30 seconds to mention 9/11

the first time. Be afraid, we have saved American time and time again. How can this guy who has been in custody for 3 years give intel that is helpful today?

What a liar our president is.

[Mortos]

13. Has he ever answered a reporters question...ever?

First question - Non-answer - re-iterate for 5 minutes what he already said
Can I follow up?

No you can't!

[Mortos]

26. Did he just blow off Helen Thomas at her last press conference

Lordy is he fucked in the head.

[graywarrior]

12. We're safer, but not safe yet. Ass fucking hole

[Greyhound]

14. At some point in the future, you are going to want this bit of your life

back. Giving this waste of space any attention just encourages him. :D :hi:

[WA98296]

15. He's back to the "flawed logic" talking point

[KyndCulture]

16. He's really fucking pissy.

He's spitting and yelling.

[KyndCulture]

18. The geneva conventions are VAGUE?

WTF????


He's gonna have a breakdown

[americanstranger]

42. That's a HUGE (or hugh) GOP talking point...

Snow Job used it yesterday.

But the thing is (and I can't remember where I read it, maybe TPM) is that Article 3 was written vaguely on purpose, to prevent unscrupulous regimes from trying to find 'exceptions' in order to end-run the article on torture.

You know - like this unscrupulous regime is trying to do now. 'Clarifying' Article 3 will kill it - which is exactly what they want to do.

- as

[bigtree]

19. Has no idea what 'outrages on human dignity' means

we know

[graywarrior]

20. Can you just smell the desperation?

[KyndCulture]

22. Completely DESPERATE.

Damn he's angry

[graywarrior]

23. Oooooouuuuuuu, he's such a commanding leader.

[snappyturtle]

25. Wants vague language to be clarified in Article III of the Geneva

conventions. God is he mad! Question people? Questioning: never better a problem for sixty years until now! Clarity. "Decent citizens who don't want to break the law"....Notice he's not answering questions....blathering instead. He knows his program is illegal!! I see more arm twisting (or worse) coming!

[KyndCulture]

27. CLARITY in the law..

there IS clarity.

follow the fucking law.

[Tess49]

29. Throwing a temper tantrum. Not becoming to a 60 year old.

Not that he was becoming at any age. Oh, and drop the smirk, junior. It's really annoying.

[KyndCulture]

31. he is totally throwing a tantrum.

[graywarrior]

33. It astounds me that he is the president.

Watching him is sooooooo fucking painful.

[Bluerthanblue]

34. his DICKtatorial obsession is showing big time, we're going to

protect 'civillization', and other countries even if they don't want it-

that is what he said in so many words- He is king of the world-

I can't wait until he implodes.

[graywarrior]

35. He really thinks he's in charge.

[Bluerthanblue]

46. lets just hope the sheep are seeing how naked he is-

and the fangs that are hiding under his fleece are sharp and evil.

[KyndCulture]
