3. I thought Bush went to the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.
He wasn't as drunk then though.

4. This is the first time a president traveled to a foreign olympics
I figure as long at the camera seeks out Bush at every event he attends he'll continue to extend the visit.

He was initially only going just for the opening ceremony and now doesn't seem to be an in hurry to go home.

6. Hell, why should he? He can get drunk there and keep the pretense up when he gets back home.

7. it is too bad he wants his face every where - this is about the athletes not him
reminds me of an insecure person who is unable to allow others their moment of glory - plus the people who are forced to talk to him and be gracious but Bob costas is a rw tool anyway - so tomorrow they are having laura - what the hell do they have to do with the olympics - nothing - they are a disgrace and I dislike they are their at all - who paid for them all to go their - they live off our tax dollars while cutting everything to us - I do not like them at all
