Something is wrong with someone that would "enjoy" talking to a Commission
...investigating whether or not he was in anyway responsible for the deaths of 3000 Americans. "I enjoyed it", he said. ??? Perhaps he confuses relief with enjoyment? He was no doubt relieved that he escaped any scrutiny and the Commission was so toothless, it agreed with Bush that they would question him in his Oval Office, that he and Cheney would appear together, that they could agree to not answer questions if they so wished, that they would not be under oath, that there would be no tape recordings, that there would be no written record, etc. Yeah, he probably did "enjoy" it....

1. I know. Why would you enjoy talking about the death of 3,000
US citizens on your watch. George Bush is psycho.

2. Remember he originally said he would be "visiting with them?"
This simpleton is incapable of grasping the gravity of what this is all about!

3. How would he know? He wasn't there.
He wasn't in NY and he wasn't in DC. He wasn't anywhere near anything deadly or dangerous. He was SAFE.

May he never sleep.

9. "May he never sleep."
not f'n likely. remember, he and pickles "slept great!" the night of 9/11... can anyone here say the same?

i could still smell the smoke that night, i sure didn't.

but, the insipid chimps loves death. i sure he enjoyed thinking about some nostalgic domestic carnage since his iraqi disaster is not going so well lately...

4. "Glad I took the time"
After he resisted, for more than a year, the appointment of a 9/11 commission.

After he sought to appoint Henry Kissinger as chair.

After he underfunded the commission, imposed a deadline and inhibited commissioners examining evidence by footdragging their security clearance.

After he "stonewalled" the inquiry, in the words of commissioner Max Cleland.

After he appointed Cleland to another board, removing his harshest critic from the commission.

After he took the "unprecedented" measure of giving unsworn testimony in the White House, and only in the company of the Vice President, without recordings and transcripts.

He "enjoyed" himself.

No shit he did. He's gotten away with it.

So far.

5. Jon Stewart's handling of his comments was priceless last night
he just showed the clip of that moron coming out to speak to the press...and it was pathetic.

6. Don't you think that his handlers might have talked him into meeting
with the Commission by presenting it as a visit? Don't you think they often lie to the Evangelist?

Did you hear Drudge 'whining and bitching' about Kerrey and Hamilton on Washington Journal. One caller finally called and said that the meeting was supposed to last for two hours and that they had informed the WH that they had meetings to go to following the WH meeting and may have to leave.

But bitchy Drudge still calls it a walk=out.

For all he knows, perhaps Bush spent the last hour talking about Crawford and that's why he thinks it was such an enjoyable meeting.

7. youre also talking about the guy
that made jokes about not finding the WMDs, never says anything about the American war dead and was as excited as a six year old after he got to "fly" a jet...I'd be willing to bet that dicky did most of the talking and george just sat there with a vacant expression on his face

8. What a sham. This idiot can't open his mouth without lying.
They held the press conference to create the illusion that * was the one answering all the questions and he didn't need Unka Dick there to hold his hand.
