Burns says president's skull is "solid granite"


A Republican senator says President Bush is stubborn and has a skull of -- quote -- "solid granite."

Those are the words of Montana Senator Conrad Burns, in criticizing Bush's continued support for placing some U-S port operations under a company based in Dubai.

Burns made the remark at the Hill County Republican Party's annual Lincoln Day Dinner in Havre. His spokesman -- Matt Mackowiak -- says the reference to granite was not meant as an insult. Mackowiak says Burns uses the same phrase in talking about his son, and that it's -- quote -- "a little joke he likes to use."

[Janice325]

21. Hey, please don't insult Curly like that.

At least he was good at what he did, IMO, making people laugh. He did it deliberately, too! :)

10. Burns has a big mouth

Sometimes he says things that are embarassing to Republicans and funny to Democrats (like this). Most of the time, he says horribly sexist and/or racist things which are also embarassing to Republicans, but (hopefully) funny to nobody. I think Conrad is going to have a rude awakening come November when an organic farmer with a flat-top kicks his electoral butt.
