[sabra]

2. it's starting

[EFerrari]

3. See that map? They put it there just in case he doesn't know

where he is. :eyes:

[liveoaktx]

4. "Hit the Road, Jack" song running through my mind

[Connie_Corleone]

5. Bloodshot eyes??!!

WTF??

[sabra]

7. such a sensitive soul

must get it from his mamma

[liveoaktx]

8. Just a master of making people feel at home-heh

that's what I always tell my family -I remind them constantly of how often their eyes are bloodshot and when

[EFerrari]

6. Who are all those people applauding this @sshole?

Or, is that a tape?

[sabra]

9. it's his entourage :-)

[Connie_Corleone]

10. He's laying on that fake accent kind of thick, isn't he?

[sabra]

11. big time

[liveoaktx]

12. Trying to outdo Haley.... there goes that coke jaw

[liveoaktx]

13. Bet that baby crying annoyed him

[sabra]

14. how many times can he say, "thanks for hosting us" ?

[liveoaktx]

15. Who's yelling back there? Is he getting protested?

[sabra]

17. hmm, yeah what is that?

[liveoaktx]

20. Heh. I love it, they're keeping it up....

Hope it rattles his ass

[liveoaktx]

24. Oh, yeah, that's not someone in the audience

[rodeodance]

34. thank god the new Pat. act is not in effect yet.

[rodeodance]

37. oh gawd--here we go again with the ownership society.

[rodeodance]

39. someone tell Jr that the piggy bank is broke!

[rodeodance]

40. Congress has appropriated VERY little of those PROMISED billions!

[rodeodance]

42. my gawd--he is really demeaning by the way he is talking to them.

[liveoaktx]

45. I'd like to know who THIS audience is.... yesterday it was Bush sycophants

[EFerrari]

18. I read that there was a group of people who were going to

protest but I think that was in NO.

[sabra]

25. seems to be getting distracted by it

[liveoaktx]

26. Let's see if he gets louder and angrier-there's also a baby out there

[sabra]

28. mommy make the bad man stop

[liveoaktx]

30. Totally cracks me up - mom won't take that kid out

[EFerrari]

33. Maybe she's pinching the baby. Babies are perfect cover.

:)

[liveoaktx]

38. heh-I'll remember that and take somebody's baby if I ever

manage to get into a Bush "campaign style" bullshit session.

[EFerrari]

16. He doesn't know the difference between a million

and a billion. No wonder China owns us.

[sabra]

19. there he goes, lying again :-)

[sabra]

21. Karl Rove?

[sabra]

22. thought that's who he put in charge of the project :-)

[liveoaktx]

23. Don Powell

[hedgehog]

27. Why is there always the suggestion that

people from the South are so different that people not from the South can't understand them or their needs? (Bush has to appoint a guy from Texas to run things) I don't mean this as a slam at the South. I'm pointing out that Bush is slamming the Federal government.

[liveoaktx]

29. What I object to is how he gets MORE southern, MORE simplistic

and speaks simplistically to these people in Mississippi.

[hedgehog]

How can he stand there and simultaneously

slam the US government and boast about all the money the government is handing out? CBG Grants? How about a Pell Grant for my kids tuition? I'm not saying instead of, I'm saying I need one just as much as they do.

[rodeodance]

31. NO one told Jr that things are tough down there!

[rodeodance]

32. He comes across as though The fed gov/HIMSELF is a SAVIOR. ugh!

[liveoaktx]

35. Yeah, just *unintentionally* someone griped to him about insurance

[sabra]

36. lots of hard werk going to happen here

[EFerrari]

41. The reception in his earpiece must be bad again

because his speech is uneven and disjointed.

[rodeodance]

44. His friend Don Powell is in charge. I do not know that name.

[liveoaktx]

46. Wonder if ht's this guy- Amarillo Banker Don Powell, FDIC regulator

[hedgehog]

43. Rebuild federal facilities in Mississippi...

with money taken out of Northeastern states. I'm not making that up. We get less than a doller back for every tax doller we pay.

[liveoaktx]

47. Gotta say, this beats CNN/MSNBC/Fox all to hell to actually SEE

the entire thing without a bunch of bullshit, or breaks for commercials or someone talking over.

[rodeodance]

48. cnn has been carry him live . jr is talking about piles of debris laying

aroung. He is at the top of it.

[liveoaktx]

49. I remember him talking about debris the first time around

[rodeodance]

50. several times he has said 'we got a slow start'--yup

people at the conv.center, on top of the roofs, on the freeway. etc etc.

[rodeodance]

51. and he goes back to his comfortable bed at the WH after this hard work.

[liveoaktx]

52. Tired of the phrase "Lessons learned"

Just admit you screwed up, fool.

[hedgehog]

53. Did the local governments learn not to let local business

interests build on the flood plains?
