You are what you read; Bush shows he been into some nasty stuffs.
No evidense of any positive works in his reading history. No Steven Covey, no Bass and Stogges, nor John K. Galbrith. Not even Huey Louie and Dewy of the Manga comic realm.

Given his body language and his recent statements, how do we guess at his reading list??

Is it leaning towards GORE(whadda pun)? You know, the blood and guts stuff?

Or EMPIRES??

Or is this MOOT? He don like to read

Gimme your hits

1. He doesn't like to read newspapers
I would imagine that just about every president since George Washington has read newspapers every day, so Bush stands out from the crowd. If he dosen't read them, I doubt if he reads anything else!

12. America picked a guy who doesnt read NEWSPAERS???
To be its President?

We are indeed a compassionate society, we even give "Challenged guys" a shot at the helm.

Do we do this for navy aircraft carriers too?

Or 747 airline pilots? Let "challenged " People be in control for years at a time?? If not, then explain Bush at the most important job on the planet.

With Bush in place, we are running against stacked odds for a friggen DISASTER on a HUGE MEGA LEVEL>

BILLIONS OF LIVES AT RISK with this guy in office. His screw up level is way over the top on too many topics/categories.

14. America also picked a guy
who can barely pick his own nose (and only then if Karl points him in the right direction).

20. A suspicion held by many all across the Planet
Bush is IAS kid. He is challenged in more ways than one. "Watch my drive."

16. I think he DOES.
I think Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Perle, and men of that ilk do NOT; but I think men of the Bush and Ashcroft stripe genuinely DO.

3. Bush? Read?
Edited on Sun Dec-28-03 12:49 AM by Cat Atomic
He can't even sit still long enough to read a newspaper, let alone a novel.

I think there's a chapter in The Bush Dyslexicon that addresses Bush's reading habits. Apparently he doesn't read for enjoyment at all.

It's been said that he may be dyslexic, too. In response to an interviewer who offered that diagnosis in her write-up, Bush said, "that woman who knew I had dyslexia: I never interviewed her". In other words, his answer was even sort of dyslexic.

7. No excuse there, apparently a number of taped books exist
and he better not be using that damn excuse of being dyslexic and not under control???

THERE ARE Buttons to be pressed??? If the Dyslexia is not under control, what do we do if the WRONG FRIGGEN BUTTON IS PRESSED? The one that sends the NUKES?

"We have a Challenged Prez???" Comes to find out... we got ourselves Supreme Irony. """Our Prez gives the ADA new meaning""". Now I would like to see on a bumper sticker.

guess that he'd like Tom Clancy.

The beer does cover a multitude of sins, however. Many thanks :) :beer:

26. One can only hope. If the aura of fear
that the BFEE seems to wield so effectively ever comes crashing down and they are exposed to public ridicule, the amount of filth that gets washed from those Augean Stables is going to make the Clinton scandals look like an 8-year old's diary.

27. Dirty Secrets sooner or later get washed out in PUBLIC
History is a mean task master.

They should get ready to do the honorable thing. Confine themselves to the Pig Farm in Crawford and read of THE GOOD SOCIETY, JKGalbraith

23. Now that you mention it, there musta been a huge fight over who the
Hell was in charge of Bush at that time frame and why did they let him go on reading a frigging story about the frigging GOAT.

The Staff was blindsided, Brain Freeze, Lock Jaw, Numb, shitting in their pants, bewildered, and praying.

Our numb Prez just stammered on
prolly thinking "If its important the boys will get me outta this friggen class".

but the real books/mags he reads, if he does read.
