Nope, sorry. The "Haunted Mansion" speech ain't bouncing.

[Bouncy Ball]

No bounce. It was weird, disconnected, spooky and it pissed off his base, and not just freepers. My husband just talked to his boss, a bushie from the word go. He said, and I quote, "WHAT was THAT shit about? Now he's some kinda COMMIE, just GIVING away money to people???" Husband just laughed. Wondered how this guy didn't notice he's been giving away money to people for a long time, they're just called Halliburton and the incredibly wealthy et al.

Yep. That's a guy who gave plenty o'money to the chimpy campaign in 2000 and 2004. And oh, he's madder than a wet cat. He went on to say they better "put up someone better than this" in 2008 or he doesn't know what the hell he'll do.

Um. Vote Green?

:rofl:

1. Nice! The "Haunted Mansion" speech!

PERFECT!!!!!!

[TahitiNut]

20. He looked like Tinker Bush in front of the Magic Kinkdom to me.

:shrug:

[proud2BlibKansan]

23. Yes he did

[TahitiNut]

25. Like this ... (PhotoShoppers invited!)

[TahitiNut]

27. Here's what he modeled this speech after ...

[TankLV]

28. Night of the Living Dead - Dawn of the Dead.

The Haunted Mansion speech.

This is great!

He just gets worse and worse.

They have finally "lost it".

Too bad this didn't happen about 10 months ago (apologies to Katrina Victums everywhere).

[sundog]

34. ...

:spray:

[Stephanie]

2. Haunted Mansion!!!

Yes! It was so freaking eerie and so Disneyesque! They tip their hand too much.

[Lithos]

He already voted Green

Green Backs that is... Doesn't care about the people, just his wallet.

L-

[Bouncy Ball]

5. Oh he definitely doesn't.

I just think it's funny how MUCH it pissed him off. I could hear him yelling on the phone from across the room. Husband was holding the phone away from his ear.

[Lithos]

9. LOL

I was being facetious... Green backs is another name for money. His type never votes for anything sustainable or which cannot be immediately tied back to his wallet. (Never mind progressive politics are usually great economic sense in the long term).

L-

[Bouncy Ball]

11. I know.

[nonconformist]

3. "haunted mansion speech" - *snicker* nt

[Bouncy Ball]

4. I swear it's now known in my house as the "Haunted Mansion" speech.

Gallows laughter in between vomiting.

[GainesT1958]

15. That one may well catch on...

The "Haunted Mansion Speech"...wow, I LIKE it!:D

B-)

[Bouncy Ball]

17. Someone else on DU first said it, not me.

But immediately I knew....that's the name. It fits it so well.

[applegrove]

6. All that sad blue lighting... meant to make us feel sad. But what was

up with the lips that couldn't follow the script?

[Bouncy Ball]

8. What was up with him MATCHING the lighting?

It made the whole thing look creepy. If that was supposed to be uplifting, shit, I don't even WANT to see what they do for a depressing speech.

[applegrove]

19. Sad is the stage after outrage. They wanted sad - then they could

uplift.

[Lisa]

32. the Blue Meanie!

Like the villains in "Yellow Submarine"!

[txindy]

7. That guy and Junior's base can stay home in 2006 AND 2008

Fine by me.

As for the term 'The Haunted Mansion speech'...

[Bouncy Ball]

10. My father in law stayed home in 2004.

He voted for bushie in 2000, but just couldn't make himself do it in 2004. So he just stayed home. First time EVER.

[KyndCulture]

12. Haunted Mansion!! that's it!! nt

[Patsy Stone]

13. It looked like Tara in the photos.

But I like Haunted Mansion too. LOL. Freepers are unhappy. Too much $.

[wanpete]

14. yeah, haunted with the ghosts of all those who died waiting on *'s

sorry butt to help them and bring them something as simple as food and water!

may they rattle chains around his bedside at 10:00 p.m. every night for the rest of his life!:mad:

[Bouncy Ball]

16. Hmm, that's a good curse, I like that one.

I used to say may he have a horribly itchy genital rash every day of his life and may he live to be 103, but we can add in your curse too, it's a good one.

[Melsky]

18. Did he really use a backdrop of N.O. with lightning on it?

I didn't see the speech. That seems really tasteless after a giant storm.

[Bouncy Ball]

21. Yep.

There are other threads with better pictures, too.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

22. Good to know his shorts are in a bunch!

As for the backdrop, it was spooky. Who the hell did they hire choose that, Wes Craven? :scared:

[confludemocrat]

24. 2006 and 2008 could be big third party years. many not happy w/ 2 parties

They steal so much from each other when they smell trouble or political opportunity and as with the Iraq war, go into fraudulent partnership, when (what would you call it?-post 9/11) there is a strong seeming push for a "muscular response" to something.

However, the Democrats should clean up in 2006 because historically they have honestly and forthrightly stood for social justice even at a price.

Republicans are good for nothing and that's not hyperbole from me.

[Bluebear]

26. Oh cripes!!! We saw it the same way!!!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x4789060

:hi:

[jayctravis]

29. When hinges creak in doorless chambers

And candlelights flicker when the air is deathly still
Is this haunted room ACTUALLY STRETCHING?????

[Marr]

30. He'll vote Republican again- count on it.

I mean after all- they only need to "put up someone better" than Bush next time. That shouldn't be too hard at all. These people make the same mistake over and over.

[fleabert]

31. so true, so true!

dh and I just sat and laughed at the R pundits chatting afterwards...they couldn't believe it was a conservative saying it... 'smaller government' my ass! That shithead LOVES big government, and loves to hand out cash- IF YOU ARE ALREADY RICH! and the gov is larger than it ever has been- unfortunately, the depts that didn't need any increasing are the ones that did, and vice versa!

finally a wake up call!

NO MORE YEARS! RESIGN SHITHEAD!

[bluedog]

33. know what

was thinking about this rebuilding thing

with all our hurricanes we have had many insurance companies just up and leave....we had to look high and low to find one to cover my House.and the state has a program that covers people who can't get insurance anywhere else.....now OUR own insurance companies have to charge us 7% more for home owners insurance to help pay for other People who are with the state program(citizens insurance)....I figure I am paying alot more now than a year ago.

anyways.....I think this is going to backfire on bush.because...how are people going to rebuild......if they CANNOT get homeowners insurance in that area?........and if by chance they do .....it's going to be so expensive....no minimum wage job can handle that payment...think bush knows this?

[Avalon Sparks]

35. Kick for "Haunted Mansion" description

That is hilarious!
