Bush to host 'United 93' screening

President Bush invited relatives of some of the 40 passengers and crew members who are portrayed in "United 93" to join him for a screening of the film at the White House Tuesday night.

Bush and his wife, Laura, planned to watch the film about the attacks in the family theater. The film focuses on the tragic drama aboard United Flight 93, the plane that crashed in rural Pennsylvania after passengers fought back against their hijackers.

"The president has always said that those who were on the flight, that the passengers and crew members of the flight, were heroes," said White House spokeswoman Dana Perino.

1. But he won't see Gore's film!
He should be strapped in to see "An Inconvenient Truth" with his eyes taped open, like the guy in "A Clockwork Orange".

9. He would not understand....
Gore's movie. It's way above his intellect.

13. That just sums these guys up, doesn't it?
Promote yourself by piggybacking onto a national tragedy, ignore the inconvenient facts.

2. He can't get enough of that good old 9/11...
The chimp's finest moment.

His legacy.

4. Can you imagine
That little chimp sitting there pretending to watch the film? Totally oblivious...yawning and distracted. You know he's too stupid and self-centered to give a shit. And Pickles next to him with her Xanax smile frozen to her face.

I'm so fucking sick of the both of them.

5. I heard Bush is going to re-enact 9/11 for them.
First he's going to sit in front of the screen for seven minutes and do nothing.

Then he's going to run out of the room and hide for three days...

10. I saw the film yesterday
and I was SOOO pissed when the closing captions mentioned that United 93 (the last of the planes to be known as a hijack) crashed at 10:06 and the president gave permission to Norad to scramble fighters at 10:18.

_My Pet Goat_ was just too good to put down! :eyes:

6. He wants to re-live the worst security failure in our nation?
The one that happened on his watch?
The one that he ignored until it was too late (and then he hid under a corn field)?
The one that he and his administration has repeatedly lied about?
The one that he and the other warmongers used to get us into Iraq?

He really is an idiot.

8. Somehow I think director Paul Greengrass is quietly slitting his wrists
right now.

15. Perverted
Doesn't this strike everyone (but of course the radical Republican 'kool-aid' drinkers) as kind of sick and perverted?

I mean this is the guy that ignored the briefing "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in US". This is the guy who was frozen in that classroom while the United 93 folks were being killed.

And he is inviting United 93 relatives to the White House to watch a movie about how their loved ones were killed?

This borders on the bizarre.

Right?

18. Macabre
In addition to his fixation and the reaction it gets from his Kool Aide drinkers, it looks like he has a morbid curiosity about violent death while lacking curiosity about anything else in life.

19. wow yet another way 2 cash in on
9/11 AND use their surviving families as well...it's a 2fer. Since raisin brain is an emotionless roach (apologies 2 roaches everywhere), I guess having no shame is easy.

20. The movie tanked at the box office
Reagan managed to turn an obscure Hunt for Red October into a bestselling novel. Let's see if El Chimpo has the kind of mojo Ronnie had... *snort*
