With the nation on high alert--Why is Bush heading back to the "ranch"?
Edited on Fri Aug-11-06 11:12 AM by WI_DEM
after his fund-raisers? shouldn't he be in Washington--monitoring the situation? Oh, yeah I forgot-"we have telephones and faxes in Texas too."

2. There's nobody in a vegetative state...
that needs to be kept artificially alive, so no need to rush back at this point.

3. Uncle Dick told him he could --and besides there is brush to clear!
The "vacation president" is much less dangerous in Texas than in Washington, D.C.

I read he had the White House Press Corp running with him for hours in 100 degree heat. What does that tell you about Bush and the WHPC?

Neither has done their job, and they deserve each other.

15. Why not?
He knows it's all phony anyway and besides what could a dumb-fuck like him do about an attack anyway? He already proved his mettle on that score.

17. I don't watch MSM any more, but one of the things that made
me quit watching was hearing them go on and on about "White House West." That's what they call the Bush cave down there. :puke:
