The Guy that is a citizen of Israel and the US at the same time. It's a lead pipe cinch, he's not loyal to the people dying in New Orleans. Chartoff = Jerkoff

7. He hasn't had a vacation for days now

12. do you have any idea how many bike rides and golf games he has missed?
"This disaster stuff is hard work.

"Plus, they just keep rattling off numbers like it was history class or something. Can't they just give me my "C" and let me get back to the kegger?

"When am I gonna get to ride the helicopter and go hug a coupla cute little darkies again? I like helicopter rides!"

14. This photo MUST be from Hurricane planning BEFORE hurricane, right?
I mean, the only reason to have this type of photo come out at THIS point, well after the disaster has hit, would be for a photo op.

15. I think it is a product placement for the drink they all have
The picture is too small for me to identify it, but the bottles look artfully positioned.

...then they managed to predict the path of the storm exactly right, even though no one could have imagined it, right?

16. Is that in the WH? I thought he makes everyone wear a suit coat.
Remember he sent Daschle out of the office when he didn't have a jacket?

argh...It's even hard to see them sit in comfortable chairs at a time like this. I know the country values the traditional trappings but, keerist, when $10 billion could have diverted much of the disaster, when a *fraction* of that could have organized a fair public evac, it just looks ugly.

25. he's probably looking around for the donuts!
Here is a sample of how * behaves at serious high-level meetings.

"Ten days before his inauguration, Dubya, Dick Cheney, Donald 'Rummy' Rumsfeld, Condoleezza Rice and Colin Powell went to the Pentagon to meet with outgoing Defense Secretary William Cohen. Afterward, Dubya and company headed "downstairs to the Tank, the secure domain and meeting room for the Joint Chiefs of Staff.... Bush asked some practical questions about how things worked, but he did not offer or hint at his desires. The Joint Chiefs' staff had placed a peppermint at each place. Bush unwrapped his and popped it into his mouth. Later he eyed Cohen's mint and flashed a pantomime query, Do you want that? Cohen signaled no, so Bush reached over and took it. Near the end of the hour-and-a-quarter briefing, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Army Gen. Henry H. Shelton, noticed Bush eyeing his mint, so he passed it over."

27. He never pays attention
he just sort of sits there and nods, and looks around, and looks at his shoes, and his hands, and over his shoulder, and nods, and closes his eyes.

Can't he at least pretend to pay attention.

29. 'How do they get those little erasers on the end of the pencil?' he thinks
Bush seems fascinated with the pencil jar.

Edited on Tue Sep-06-05 04:24 PM by chicagiana
He looks like EVERY SLACKER KID who comes to class without his book, paper and something to write with.

Now that slacker kid has been in put in charge of the nation. Imagine the results.
