Is there any possible way Bush read 91 books in two years?

I can't see how. First of all, no way would he even attempt to do that, especially the books he's supposedly read. This has been a lying pattern with Bush for awhile. When he ran in 2000 he supposedly was reading a biography on Dean Acheson and he was asked about it during a debate and was embarrassed first by not knowing anything about Dean Acheson and second by John McCain who actually knew something about the topic. Then Bush supposedly read the bible every single day, until he was asked one day which passage he read that morning and he couldn't come up with an answer.

But other than that, if the guy has read that many books in the last few years, he was neglecting his job as president. That means he wouldn't have been reading certain reports, or any newspapers or classified briefings and on and on and on. A president shouldn't have time to read that many books. Sure some books yeah, but that many? It's almost not possible, not with his schedule. And definitely impossible when you consider he doesn't like to read and has next to zero intellectual curiousity.

It's easy to call bullshit on this one because it's laughable, but it's just another deceitful instance in a long long line of them from this administration. It's to the point if Bush/Cheney or one of their cronies said the sky was blue you'd have to automatically believe they are lying and it's actually some other color. Nothing that these people say should ever be taken seriously. Nothing ever. It should have always been that way, it certainly would have saved this country and the world plenty of grief.

*MAYBE*

not even close, I imagine.

in all honesty.

:)

So I doubt it.

He should have been spending that time working on the problems of this country. Pure and simple.

I don't think the man's read 91 WORDS in two years.

On edit: great minds think alike, madokie (simul-post)...

He may actually think so, given his apparent reading comprehension, which is shit.

Look what thinks it says in the Constitution.

Oh, wait, he too obviously didn't read that either.

I don't think he's even read 91 book titles in two years. Perhaps he simply read, 'My Pet Goat' 91 times. Christ they will lie about anything, won't they?

I can't see how somebody could seriously report this as a fact. How gullible would a reporter have to be to take this at Karl Rove and the WH's word? Now if they said something like 20 books, that's at least plausible.

all of them from Jenna's wedding.



So he did a bit of cramming the last couple of months....give the guy a break...

I think I read somewhere that he was into speed reading, which means that he may have read them, but I bet he doesn't remember a damn thing about them.

:rofl:

PLUS

"Curious George Learns How to Count from 1 to 100"?


(with that deficit spending of his, he never read that one... :( )

it should have read 1 and it was a comic.

What he meant to say was "If I live to be 91, I may have read 2 books".

You didn't know? Cheney was acting Prez all those years. Bush was just a front.

The man can't even get through a speech.

:)

:shrug:

could *bush have picked up 91 books and "read" them. maybe.

reading is only useful if you can read, comprehend, process,(and ideally) absorb some of what you are reading.

by glancing over the pictures.
