Bush is out of control... Seriously. From this morning's NAACP speech:
Here's the thread on it from GD:

U.S. President George W. Bush playfully slaps U.S. Congressman Al Green (D-TX) as he greets delegates following his remarks at the annual convention at the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in Washington July 20, 2006. REUTERS/Jason Reed (UNITED STATES)

UNBELIEVEABLE!

33. Bush received 12% of black vote in 04 - He's not stupid, he needs all he
can get to vote Republicon come November. And the reason he only received 12 5 of the black vote was because they didn't trust him or his fucking administration because of what happened in Florida in 2000 -- Bush is merely acting out Rove's plans to keep control of the house & senate -- otherwise Rove will be out of work after November elections...

10. He's regressing. He's lost the ability to keep hands to himself.
Kindergarten headed for pre-school.

Bets that he's got alzheimers? I'm putting up cookies.

12. Why can't the Asshat keep his hands off people?
Does he have some sort of disability (besides his coke-addled brain) that stops his ability to respect another person's "space?"

Or does he think his war powers allow him to touch any one any where? (Need to ask Alberto about that.)

And remember how they used to complain about Clinton "groping" women? This guy gropes every body! LOL

32. I remember that! Watched him come from behind and literally
pushed Clinton aside and edged in ahead of him. That was one of the rudest things he's ever done. I was horrified when he did it. Too bad Clinton didn't grab him by his coat tails and yank him back behind him and politely say, "Excuse me?"

23. Junior has always had two...
...methods of coping with all of his problems, failures and fuck-ups. The first was having Poppy bail his sorry ass--out of DUI's; petty criminality (breaking into a suburban house to steal X-mess oranments as a Yalie undergrad); the draft (and being AWOL from the TANG); from his serial business failures; from losing the election in Florida...and i'm sure there's lots of other incidents that have been successfully covered up over the years.

Now that Junior's our court-appointed usurper (and Cheney, presumably, is his court-appointed guardian), he gets to act out his life-long, Texas-sized Oepedal conflict with dear old dad, by refusing to accept his help (however desparately needed) as the means of asserting his independence of Bush Sr. (the slightly less stupid and obnoxious one). As long as he's riding high in the polls (his measure of the public's "love" for him), everything's okay. But once the slide in popularity begins, the old doubts/demons return, and he's forced back to coping the old-fashioned way: denial, of which drinking and drugging and (if reports can be credited) homoerotic sex (why do i suspect he's the submissive one?) are the most classic symptons. The unbecoming-a-president behavior Junior's been exhibiting in public of late (possibly dating from the last WH Press Corps dinner?) is undeniably juvenile, and increasing infantile, in nature. In a word, reality is crashing through the hardened bunker of Junior's fantasy world, and his always-shaky personality is deteriorating under the pressure.
