5. "worst guest ever"
from mykeru.com:

"Still, no matter what's deluding George lately, Britain is going to be an absolute turd in the punch bowl for Bush. When this trip was planned in the "Mission Accomplished" stage of the Iraq War, no doubt Bush saw this trip as the political equivalent of spiking the ball in the end zone and wiggling his ass. It doesn't seem to be turning out that way for him. The situation in Iraq not as peachy as he would have had it when he was posing for photos on the USS Abraham Lincoln. Now he is faced with the prospect of having to publicly pat himself on the back while Americans and British soldiers die in his war, which may explain why Bush did the unheard of "I care" moment on the South Lawn.

The British may not be as dutiful in making sure protesters are as far away from the fortunate son as they would be in America. And that seems to scare the big pseudo Texan shit out of the man.

Already Bush has shown what a ballsy, straight-shootin' Gary Cooper kind of guy he is by cancelling his address to the British parliament for fear of being heckled. Now Bush will only address a hand-picked "invited audience" while in the UK.

What a contemptuous coward: He sends people's sons and daughters off to die for an ill-defined mission based on lies and corruption, he plays the tough guy and boasts "bring 'em on" and defies death using other people lives when he says "We're going to stay tough" and then he simply lacks the guts to face critics in any form?"
