To some, the most disturbing part of this video is Bush killing time while waiting for John McCain by doing a stupid little dance. But we know Bush is a nincompoop. What I find most disturbing- what I’ve always found most disturbing about his press appearances- is the seeming giddy laughter whenever he makes an insipid little “joke.” These are supposed to be professional journalists. Do they really find him funny? Or are they so shallow and simple-minded that proximity to a “president” makes them fawn, babble, and drool? I guess we’ll find out, next year. And I’m not sure which is worse.

If a Dem wins the WH, they’ll be aggressive and hard hitting.
It’s unbelievably creepy to me, too, when I see the press corps giggling like schoolchildren.
peeing all over themselves
see title of essay just below yours::: change FISA to MSM and there you go:::
MSM: Go F%#k Yourselves
or change put Dems in place of MSM…. they’d be doing the same thing. laughing at this little man’s stupid little jokes
it’s all one big mess. the wrong people at the wrong time in the wrong fucking place.
being a journalist ain’t all that. Mr. President…. Mr. President… are you wearing wool or wool blend socks. Chuckle. Chuckle.
I know they aren’t all morons but you don’t invite the smart ones to any press conferences or even pre-packaged PR scrums.
who was vilely insulted and did vilely insult if anyone was late to a meeting with him or made him wait. And he wouldn’t allow people into his office that is oval shaped if they weren’t in suit and tie. And he was deeply insulted if legally blind people had to wear prescription glasses around him or seersucker if he deemed it out of style…….and then he became the most despised lame duck president in history and he looks and acts like one too 😉
there are going to be a lot of bush-is-gone parties next January. I’m planning one.
You just know Karl dropped a few happy pills in George’s OJ to make sure Dubya didn’t get his hackles up during the Press conference at the thought of having to hand over the reins.
Either that or he just got done watching this video:
Singing in the Rain.
Kinda fits, no?
fawned, giggled, bowed and scraped for this impostor, cheerleader, bad seed. They love/fear power, if it was just Bush without the Bush crime family behind him they would be as weirded out as most of us. I agree that the treatment he gets is almost as scary as the man himself.
Inappropriate reactions to such a psycho with power, like a nasty bunch of school yard kids laughing at the bully. Helen Thomas is the only one who seems to have the brains and integrity to react properly. I also find the fact that the general public for the most part goes along, chilling. Although I found this heartening and yet confusing. It appears that Democrats are more gullible, perhaps idealistic?
Over Half of Americans Say They Tend Not to Trust the Press

is that the WH staff work was really sloppy. They messed up on arrival times, bad communications, so that Junya was left standing out there looking stupdier than usual, waiting for Straight-talkin’ John McSyncophant to arrive.
I suspect that the flies on the wall heard some really bad language later on.
on all sides.
But I think its not just the press that does this. I think we have an epidemic of folks who think that the only way to have power is to swoon over and around those who they perceive to have power.
Does it not make you absolutely SICK to see how people fawn all over Donald Trump?
I had to spend some time up at our state legislature this year. One of the things that made it so hard for me to do is that everyone trips all over themselves trying to get close to those elected officials. I’ve met some of them…and while there are some good ones, there are many who aren’t the “brightest lights” among them. But they all get treated like some kind of mini-gods. I want to say “bleh…”
who deep down inside knows he is unqualified for his position. It’s the action of someone with an inferiority complex. It is over compensation, the same as being a bully is usually over compensation for knowing, subconsciously, of one’s lack of ability to resolve problems by any other way other than violence, of having to push people around to feel enpowered.
By the way, my brother knows a lady that went to high school with the bush brothers in Oddesa (maybe Midlands) Texas, and she said they were all bullies, the kind that would push people around just for the fun of it. All the bushies probably have that little “heh-heh”.
is our president is a boy. He can’t be left to his own devices for a minute without looking and acting like a fool. The world must be impressed by our choice.
I remember my uncle getting up and doing an inappropriate little dance too at a family gathering.
Somebody get the Hook!
