Bush Blows Gasket Over Colbert routine! HA HA HA!

Well, it looks like Stephen Colbert really got under the president's skin this weekend. From US News:

Comedy Central star Stephen Colbert's biting routine at the White House Correspondents Association dinner won a rare silent protest from Bush aides and supporters Saturday when several independently left before he finished.

"Colbert crossed the line," said one top Bush aide, who rushed out of the hotel as soon as Colbert finished. Another said that the president was visibly angered by the sharp lines that kept coming.

"I've been there before, and I can see that he is (angry)," said a former top aide. "He's got that look that he's ready to blow."

As Wolcott says, MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! My sincerest congratulations to Colbert for using his time mere feet away from The Man himself to launch a surprise comedic attack that get's the president's (pet) goat.

Maybe the pressures of being a lying murderer are getting to the worthless bastard. Go have a big strong drink george. Several of them.

I'd love to see Dave really come over to our side. I think he's almost there... (I'll bet he laughed at Colbert on Saturday night...)

well, at least they were guests who I assumed were press people.

just heard that bush had words for Gregory this AM.

Go snort some white stuff up your nose and give Jim Beam a call and before you know it you'll have forgotten all about it...poor thing! :+

I thought she was even madder than G'ie. You get no argument from me that they were hot.

Colbert put the reality of his lies in front of his face.:sarcasm:

Did I mention that I adore Stephen Colbert?

...she understood it better.

must have gotten a little too hot in the kitchen, kind of like Coretta Scott King's funeral, but with more jokes

1. You are not liked. By Americans, by Europeans, by anyone except your cronies.

2. You are a liar. And everyone, everyone knows it.

3. You are not a Christian. You do nothing that is Christian. In fact, everything you do is very un-Christian.

4. You are generally viewed as an idiot.

5. We all know about your drinking and drug problems.

6. You are most interested in helping your rich buddies instead of doing anything good - much less worthwhile - for the American people.

7. The whole world knows there was no reason for the war in Iraq.

8. There are a lot more people who know about Jeff Gannon than you'd be comfortable with.

So, Little Lord Pissypants, go get angry. The anger you feel will never equal the anger the world feels toward you.

Okay so he's not liked. And "generally" being viewed as an idiot. Is that really that bad? And he says he doesn't have a drinking problem. "He" had a reason to go to war in Iraq. And what's wrong with a little jeff gannon action in the oval office?

Andy, you go stand in the corner and think about that attitude of yours.

:rofl:

The American Public does not care about the truth. Its part of the intricate gop plan for success.

Sadly, so many Americans don't care about the truth, they call themselves "conservatives."

dumbya is easily the MOST HATED AND REVILED PERSON ON THE PLANET. Come November 2006 his days are numbered. Impeach. Indict. Imprison.

from the '30s and '40s, but given that the world is more populated and better connected, I would contend that more people hate Chimpy McWarhardon than any other primate in the entire history of the world

I think Bush is one of those guys that has been watching Colbert all this time and not getting it. To him Colbert just talks like a republican and gets cheers and laughs from the audience, and Bush laughs along too, not getting it.

having destroyed thousands upon thousands of lives for his personal vision of hell.

it was the press that colbert was shitting on

loosing their lives and limbs....families destroyed....

He didn't have his mommy and daddy protecting him...from....gasp....SATIRE...

I guess Georgie is going to pass a law against "Satire" since it is considered a national security threat!!!!

:boring:

Essentially the only way to deal with the dellusional assholes that support the "Little Adolf".

Babs (Birther of the Beast) Bush.

In all truthiness, I made up the word "birther".

the only anger I saw was on the little monkeys face. Now there's a character that's ready to blow if I ever I saw one. What is it, swiftboat Steven now?

and have him at the top of the list for my fantasy dinner party. His crack about Bumiller was wonderful, a great visual, and well within probability.

I think he's right about the smut, but what can you say about Stupid but that he's utterly sexless? Even Colbert was unequal to that job.

The whole comparison with Imus was perfect!

"See, that was Colbert's mistake. He didn't slip in any smutty lines. Had he done so, his standup would have been impossible to ignore as the Fox News hotheads would have gone into full outrage mode to defend the honor of Laura Bush and her virgin ears. "

Colbert really got under his skin :D

:rofl:

eat it! :evilgrin:

that a large part of Colbert's skewering was aimed at our very own MSM's conduct, it was not all about Bush, what gives?:shrug:

But knew what hypocrites they were by morning !

Amazing, insanity at the WH...offended by words, they launch a furious bombing raid in
some unspecified part of the world because it was the bosses idea. That's about it.

Give me a break WH. You are the very worst leaders any country has ever had, the worst.

Your minions at the dinner heard the truth. Get used to it. It will only get "truthier."

If I were him I wouldn't open any mail for awhile.
