1. On Wednesday he wasn't even up to a live performance
he must be on a major bender.

2. I keep hearing that and it's evident from the video
But do we have any documentation on that? I'd love to see a link for that. What possible reason could they give for having him appear pre-taped rather than live? It's bizarre.

11. When the speech was first broadcast
all they had was audio, there was no live picture. I think some one did admit that it had been pretaped.

3. I just don't understand the man.
What would he have to loose by making a public statement of support? Is he ill or something and can't be seen for some reason?

14. he has major difficulty with human emotion....
give 'em a war, and let him Rip (well, not really, he doesn't rip at Anything, he just fumbles less when talking about destruction instead of helping).

Babs and Poppy must have been Great Parents. :P

15. Could it be he is burdened by the weight and pomp of an inauguration
that possibly will be tantamount to the first coronation in an English-speaking country since QEII's inauguration more than fifty years ago? Man, what a heavy load to carry.

5. He is incapable of dealing with stress.
Has the word "compassion" popped out of his lying mouth even once? Has he invoked that it's the "Christian" thing to do to take care of the less fortunate?

"Whatsoever you do unto the least of these, you do unto me."

Well, Jesus, let me inform you that George W. Bush has effectively told you to GFY.

6. At one time the president of the United States
was considered to be the leader of the free world. Those days are over. What does it matter.

7. Shrub came out of his hole
and saw his shadow which means there will be four more years of corporate whores leading this country. Let's jump right to 2009 because I can't stand to hear or see that prick for another four years.

8. Haha... the Sunday one is particularly bad.
Yeah, I don't mind if he just hides until 2008. But my guess is that he won't.

Anyway, I actually paused for a moment when I learned that we're now giving $350 million to tsunami relief (wow, Bush did something Clintonesque!)

Haha. Anyway, happy New Years!

9. There's not much he can do to look better
in the eyes of the world, so why not just enjoy
his off-camera time?

Personally, any day I don't have to see his lying
ass on TV is fine by me.

12. Say it with me sir......
Tsunami

Tsu na mi

Good now one more time like you care about brown skinned people

Very good.

Put the bottle down sir, Jesus is not talking to you, that is just the ear piece we have to install for the press conference.
