Raw video compiled by pupetgov.com.

It boggles the mind that this kind of thing goes unquestioned and unpunished. When it comes to war, the first ones to cheer lead are the ones with nothing to loose and profits to gain.

Thanks to puppetgovcom for clip compilation.

How ever you spin it, this is not funny.

2. of all the things this administration has done
this one always blew my mind. How could you have such bad taste? How could you be so callous? It's completely unbelievable. And yet, it explains everything.

3. Sorry but that if very deceptive editing
Yes when W told those jokes with the video of him looking under the couches and tables in the Oval Office the press (the audience) did inexplicable laugh but the images here are not the context of W's horrible jokes.

5. The editing is not intended to imply what you say. It is intended as juxtaposition.
The maker of the video isn't trying to deceive anyone. He or she is making the point that an elite group of people sitting around in their tuxedoes allowed the President of the United States to make light of his misbegotten rationale for going to war. As if all he did was bumble a little the way Gerald Ford used to trip on the stairs. The assembled journalists and Washington worthies just thought the President making a joke about the origin of the invasion was just so goshdarned CUTE.

Thank you DemItAllAnyway. I couldn't have explained it better. Would it matter if he looked in a bread box or the refrigerator? Imagine, if you can, Bill Clinton in place of Bush.

13. Yes, I think that pissed me off more than anything
The Boy King is an ass, but the press getting a laugh out of this was way beyond the pale.
