1. I'm sure someone thought of it...

And then chickened out...

For whatever reason...

2. That was just a Celebrity Press Conference

Chuck Todd. Sue-ZAHN Malveaux. Nora. They were all there. No real journalists, only the fake ones who've spent the last eight years of their lives sucking Bush's choad. The people who've ever asked Bush a real question didn't get called upon (Helen).

3. Because he is a petty, small minded man who knows history will not be kind to him.

And he had to take it out on somebody.

4. It's just not a big issue.

And as someone who's been by there a million times, what's this crap with it having 100+ rooms???

How'd THAT happen? It's a townhouse by the Renwick Gallery.

8. It's still a small space for that many rooms unless they're very small.

The Renwick, the NEOB, etc. border it.

9. I know, I've been there a couple of times and it didn't impress me.

The rooms were very small and looked kind of like my grandmother's old townhouse with layers of paint and uneven walls. I just assumed they revamped it since 1996.

Come to think of it, they were working on it when I was there.

5. Not enough rooms? (119 when last counted) . Helen would have asked it.

He should have called on her, for old times sake.

6. Man that chaps my hide.

It's the unbelievable pettiness, childishness and plain meanness of that pathetic little man that amazes me the most. Unlike Bush, Obama actually WON an election, even with an attempt by the GOP to steal votes. There is no doubt that Bush is truly the leader of his party, which is full of asshats just like him.

Rachel is right. It's insulting and it makes Bush look even worse than he already does, if that is even possible. I need to let it go like Obama did, but it makes me furious.
