At the G-8 summit, President Bush grabs German Chancellor Angela Merkel from behind and gives her a quick massage before rushing off. Chancellor Merkel is not amused.













:puke::puke::puke:

[blonndee]

1. HOLY shit!!

I'm speechless.

[truthpusher]

183. Wow...he is completely fucking hammered...that boy is drunk...big time!!

[Harper_is_Bush]

234. Come on. No way he's drinking at the G8 and walking around.

His people aren't that dumb.

[Frank Cannon]

341. But HE's the decider... and the drinker

They may tell him what to say, but there's no way his people can tell this imperious little shit that he can't drink. I'm pretty sure they let him have a few "for medicinal purposes", with those constant trips to Crawford to allow him to get really hammered.

There is no way that boy isn't liquored up in those photos. He's acted shitfaced the entire time he's been there.

[Harper_is_Bush]

369. Not a chance. He's acted no differently than he ever does.

Not a chance he's drinking at that thing.

[geardaddy]

431. Look at his expression, though!

He looks lit. He may not be drunk, but he's on something.

[Frank Cannon]

466. You're right, geardaddy; the expression really gives it away

This is a man who's been entirely divorced from his inhibitions and any sense of impropriety whatsoever. He wanted to put his hands on that woman and he did it, automatically, like some sort of robot. Anyone who has any experience with an alcoholic knows the behavior and that robotic look on the face. His behavior has been so inappropriate over the last few days that it can only be explained by drink/drugs. NO SOBER PERSON ACTS THE WAY HE DOES, regardless of their level of intelligence, unless they've been seriously head-injured. And whether his behavior is due to a head injury or substance abuse, he is clearly unfit to lead.

I honestly think that his handlers don't care how drunk or drugged-up he gets, except that they give him constant escapes to Crawford to get so completely trashed that he passes out entirely. His handlers know that they have the national news media to ignore/dismiss/explain away his actions.

[elehhhhna]

488. He's goinking the booze ay G-8 becasue

he KNOWS now, without a doubt, that he's depised by everyone--particuliarly his"peers".

Probably going to invade Germany now. Octoberfest surprise.

[truthpusher]

523. I am recovered alcoholic...have kind of a sixth sense about this...

...he looks shitfaced!

[elehhhhna]

487. "He's acted no differently than he ever does." Has it crossed your mind

that he's ALWAYS drunk or gopped up on prescription meds?

[Harper_is_Bush]

506. No, it hasn't.

[elehhhhna]

520. it should

[elehhhhna]

485. FIne. He's on crack, then..

[Harper_is_Bush]

507. Good grief. Can't you just critisize him for being an idiot?

Is it necessary to attribute constant substance abuse to him? Sort of alienates you from 99% of American who think that accusation is silly.

[leveymg]

368. Here's a photo of Bush with a beer in front of him taken 2 days ago.

Putin seems to be gesturing to Dubya to move to another place at the table. Note there are more brewskies being chilled by the wall behind Bush. Anyone recognize the brand? Do the Russians even make non-alcoholic beer? Photo and more at: http://karenas.typepad.com/my_weblog/2006/07/is_that_bushs_b.html

[reichstag911]

419. It appears to be Miller Lite.

I'm seeing the distinctive coloring and the "L" in "Lite":

[Sequoia]

429. That photo tells it all. Look at how Putin is giving Chimp

a guarded look. As if Putin's thinking: Get this kook away from me.

[Syncronaut Seven]

435. Putin is crafty

I actually like the little shit, just because he's smarter than the chimp, way smarter.

Hey *! Check for your wallet! :rofl:

[Sequoia]

438. Me too, but don't tell anyone.

He has some class at least.

[SlavesandBulldozers]

479. you like him because he's smarter than the chimp.

which means you have a healthy admiration for all of God's creatures. I like that.

[Sequoia]

536. He looks likeable, not angry.

[Kurovski]

509. I think Putin is just directing George to the kiddie table.

So there was already a plan to keep Chimpy out of the grown-ups' hair.

[kitty1]

512. LMAO!!

[wordpix2]

524. Bush is definitely looking shitfaced in this photo

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

474. OMG he looks snookered!

wow, great picture!

[elehhhhna]

489. Pooties pointing out the place where GW peed on the carpet.

Hello? Remember? Condi's not there to give him the nod for the men's room.

[Kurovski]

511. Did he smack him with a copy of Pravda?

[elehhhhna]

519. YES, while shouting "GLASNOST!" Are you psychic or what?

[Kurovski]

534. Well, no wonder George keeps having accidents,

Putin is supposed to say "bad doggy!"

[DistressedAmerican]

395. I Am NOW Convinced. I've hedged in past. No more. (quick Flash sequence)

I have always hedged my thinking on that. But, this G8 think is TOTALLY BIZZARE

I threw together a quick flash sequence of the shots to see it semi-animated

http://merkelmassage.cf.huffingtonpost.com/

and it creeps me out even more!

DRUNK!

[katty]

496. Yea, yuck!! CREEPY--Bushferatu in for the strangle

[wordpix2]

525. his facial expressions are certainly blank but that's not different from

the usual. However, he could have been drunk, I agree.

[Julius Civitatus]

231. He has a history of patting bald men without permission... now this too!

Bush has this frat-boy sense of humor with a power trip twist to it. Every time he sees a bald person, he can't help himself: he has to humiliate that person in public, pat and rub their bald heads, do his stupid-ass pantomimes for the cameras. Check out this collection of photos of this bizarre behavior:

http://juliusblog.blogspot.com/2004_04_01_juliusblog_archive.html#108300556134138351





It's a power trip, because he knows if he wasn't top-monkey he couldn't get away with it.

Now he offers unrequited massages to female foreign leaders, out of the blue, just cause he can.

This is creepy.

[drm604]

306. Have you seen this one?

:wtf:

[Buns_of_Fire]

313. Ummmmm..... Brains.....

Isn't anyone ever going to start selling "Presidents Gone Wild" videos?

[wordpix2]

526. that is truly weird---sucking bald head!

[PurpleChez]

320. I linked to your collection bush idiocy. One was particularly offensive --

Two, actually -- those of President Trainable rubbing the little Black boy's head. My mother tells the story of when she was in college (in early 60's PA); she had a roommate from the South who -- without warning, permission, etc. -- would rub Black students' heads for luck. Why is it so easy to imagine this fucktard catching a glimpse of a Black boy with a buzz cut and thinking "Ahm a-gonna get me some good luck a-rubbin' this li'l pickaninny's hee-id! Ain't no one's a-gonna stop me! Cuz I'se th' Preznint!" Please, Lord, give him the avian flu.

[The Wizard]

334. Some say

he tried changing his luck with a certain Cabinet member.

[scarface2004]

475. bush is lubed up and extremely horny!!!

he'll fuck anything that moves at this point!

[pinto]

2. Oh geez.

[babylonsister]

3. Merkel's face and body language speak volumes. She

looks as disgusted as I'd be.

[Tinksrival]

213. Maybe it has something to do with this.......

Georgie giving Angela a little shake down? Wonder what he wants?
This is from the transcript of the Bush and Blair show....

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/07/17/AR2006071700402_pf.html

Blair, standing over Bush as the president eats, tries to engage on the stalled global trade negotiations.

Blair : On this trade thing . . .

Some of the ensuing conversation is inaudible. Blair evidently wants Bush to make a statement on the talks.

Bush : If you want me to. I just want some movement. Yesterday, I didn't see much movement. The desire's to move.

Blair : No, no there's not. It may be that it's impossible.

Bush : I'll be glad to say it. Who's introducing me?

Blair : Angela.

Bush : Tell her to call on me. Tell her to put me on the spot.

Bush then changes the subject, presumably to a gift Blair must have given him for his recent 60th birthday.

Bush : Thanks for the sweater. Awfully thoughtful of you. I know you picked it out yourself.



So what the hell is that suppose to mean? :shrug:

[elehhhhna]

490. Here's hopng that 'sweater' is really a straightjacket.

[mtnester]

325. If she could have smacked him, she would have

her body language is SCREAMING "Don't touch me you asshole, WTF are you DOING?!?!?!"

Not only did it scream that, she was completely offended and repulsed...I have used the exact same body language myself, and seen it a thousand times in my long work career.

He is completely condescending toward women..my GOD this was basically Germany's PRESIDENT..he would not have done this if she was a man...not even thought to do it...he put her right in her place in his own mind....

What a complete utter idiotic asshole of a jerk. Beyond.

[elehhhhna]

491. Some people say he also goosed Pootie in the shorts.

I COULD happen lmao

[Arkansas Granny]

364. If he had done that in an office environment, it would be deemed

sexual harassment. No sense, no manners, no sense of decorum. It is a great embarrassment to me to think that he represents our country on the international scene.

[elehhhhna]

492. ARKGran, it's even MORE of an offense in Germany, where

they enforce labor laws and other quaint traditions.

[JuniperLea]

403. I would have jumped up and kicked him in the nuts n/t

[Catch22Dem]

4. Eat THAT, Clinton haters!!!

HAHAHAHA. Freeptards should be repulsed, but they won't be.

[LiberalFighter]

131. Clinton never did that to any delegation from another country!!

[Rude Horner]

5. Can we declare him legally insane yet?

What IS it with this guy that just tells him to do anything and everything wrong?

[ClintonTyree]

312. It's his sense of entitlement.......

the same sense of entitlement that caused him to "quit" the TANG, beat drug raps, get away with being a drunk asshole, have his Daddy's pals bail him out of each and every failed business venture and steal the presidency.......twice. The little rich boy who was never told, "NO"!

He IS a textbook psychopath and yes, he SHOULD be declared non compos mentis and sent to get treatment, not be allowed to run roughshod over the entire world like it's his personal plaything. Our LOOOOOONG national nightmare continues! :cry:

[Atman]

6. AAARRRGGGHH! This maroon is killing America!

"Hell, it's okay to grab a world leader like that. I mean, she's only a chick! Besides, she totally wants me!" - Dubya

[villager]

7. even weirder is the look on the Manchurian President's face

...while he's doing it. Like an automaton...

[davekriss]

102. I just noted that on another thread

He looks like a walkin' zombie lost to some inner demonic turmoil, only marginally conscious of what he's doing. And this man, folks, has his finger on the nuclear trigger (or "nukular", as they say down home where Bush is from).

[villager]

139. I think the blankness on his face is scarier than the massage

aspect, though what that tells you about his lack of boundaries and sense is frightening enough...

[smoogatz]

150. He's drunk.

I know 'em when I see 'em, speaking as a former bartender and long-time drinker. He's completely hammered, so his impulse control is shot, and his facial muscles are relaxed. Don't it make you proud?

[davekriss]

167. That sounds very plausible

So this man has reverted to out-and-out drunkenness, retreated to the world of denial, diminished judgment, and brakeless emotive impulse. Nice. There is a clause in the Constitution that would allow for Bush's immediate removal of power if the claim is made that he's become incompetent, subject to congressional review after 60 days. Only thing is, it can only be invoked by the Vice President seconded by two Cabinet members (or something like that). It couldn't be worse, with Cheney at the helm (since he's the power behind figurehead Bush), but it certainly doesn't make anything better.

[Old and In the Way]

182. I agree....he's loaded.

That stunt is so over the top, he had to have been drunk. Total impulse, on autopilot. Maybe his meds are reacting with the alcohol, but this trip has been long bizarrefest. The world is going to hell and Bush seems to think this is one big parrrrrty.

[leveymg]

339. Time for a long vacation at the ranch to reevaluate those meds.

A "That's it!" moment. This has to be some kind of a wakeup call. Even the true believers have to see it. Quick, remove this guy from public sight.

This sort of thing has been going on for years. Wonder why we're being shown it now?

[Totally Committed]

316. I'm sad to say I agree with you...

He looks drunk to me, too. Our President -- the man who represents our country to the rest of the world -- is drunk at a G8 Meeting and running around creating mayhem. To paraphrase one of my favorite bumper-stickers, if you don't feel ashamed, you're not paying attention.

What a disgrace.

TC

[wordpix2]

527. I'm convinced--pRes Asshat is drunk

[davekriss]

165. I absolutely agree -- a walking zombie (eom)

[Supersedeas]

480. like the realization that I am touching someone whom I do not really know

[eviltwin2525]

185. like red ties

i've noticed that ALL BushCheney Administration f-tards are now pronouncing it "noo-you-lar," so as to make the boss look less stupid.

[silverojo]

275. Remember when Carter was vilified for saying "noo-kyoo-lar" by the Pubs?

Time for us to remind them that Bush is talking like the peanut man....

[M155Y_A1CH]

400. No, I don't remember that

Did that really happen or are you just yanking my chain?

[tavalon]

482. Yes, I remeber it too

I've reflected on that every time the moron says it the same way. I never liked it when Carter said it (I love Carter, though) and I hate it when the moron says it.

[elehhhhna]

494. WElcome Missy! Yes it happened and gort CONSTANT snide

"coverage".

[ChickMagic]

422. I don't think he does have his finger on the trigger

I was taken aback when Cheney went to Afghanistan some time back
and the MSM actually said that he had a person with him carrying
the nuclear football. Cheney will do the button pushing. Remember
that it was Cheney who ordered planes to be shot down on 9-11? That's
the president's call.

[DemonFighterLives]

355. That's what I thought

He looked to be in a trance.
I wonder who is behind the curtain?
:freak:

[Generic Brad]

8. New Rule

Don't massage the chancellor!

He thinks he can do anything. ANYTHING.

458. Clueless baffoon in the White House - congrats 51%ers

[panader0]

10. Between these pics and the transcript of his talk w/ Blair, Putin

I think I'm going to barf too!

[knowbody0]

11. oh pickles!

what his hands must feel like.

[FighttheFuture]

360. Oh! Pickles will have to go back to her pickle! The little monkey has...

traded up to a Mercedes!

[Botany]

12. Has to be a photoshop

No way can this be real

[gristy]

17. hmmm, you might be right

[TexasChick]

21. Can't be Photoshopped. Here is a link to the actual video:

[Botany]

28. Jesus H Christ in a Canoe

Please tell me it is a fake .....

An ADD president w/ no social graces or international I.Q. @ this
time in history?

I need to know it is a fake.

[TexasChick]

34. Unfortunately, it's not dear. It's real. And, yes, I am just as

embarrassed as you are.

[Botany]

76. DID BABS TEACH HIM ANY MANNERS?

Among all cultures of the world this crosses so many lines it is not funny.

A person has their own space and you or anybody has to respect that space ....
and now to the leader of Germany, he does this?

I want to wake up a find out that this is a fake.

[TexasChick]

114. Okay, Botany. I think you just answered your own question.

You're asking about Babs (the crass c*nt)! This is the woman who said she doesn't want to waste her beautiful mind on body bags.

I'm sorry, no matter how many times you "ceck out" for a few and check back in, it's still going to be real! :)

[Botany]

156. please tell me it is a fake

The man needs to be sent to the funny farm ASAP .... that is the move of a mentally ill
person.

When he grabs the President of China you think he has hit the bottom but no.
When he steals elections, money and lies to the American people but then talks
about "freedom & democracy" in other countries your gag reflex goes into action.
When he talks "shit" @ a G 8 summit you think he might have never go lower.
When he talks about the American dream of free voting and stops 60,000 Africans
Americans from voting in Florida and 375,000 from voting in Ohio the taste of spit up
is in your mouth.
But this? To a freely elected multi-lingual leader of Germany ..... But Christ
in a canoe ..... what a bag of crap ..... "any women would love my magic touch."

[TexasChick]

170. LOL! I love the pic! Oh, come now, you don't think it's finished, do

you? Oh, I think we are in for some more surprises and disgusting displays from the Smirk. Count on it. And, Botany, didn't you know that Chimpy McFlightsuit said that the GOP will keep the majority of the house in the next coming election? He's sure of it! I laugh to keep from crying, it's such a nightmare! :cry:

[Botany]

181. I am from Ohio .... i know egg zac lee what that means

fixed elections on a scale never seen before.

http://www.thousandreasons.org/get_article.php?article_id=13

a little of what I saw & heard in 04 in Ohio

[TexasChick]

195. Well, you can guess where I am from. I have to hear from my

own family, much less others from Texas, how great the Smirk is! I'm the only Dem in my family by the way. My twin is an Independent, and the rest, well, just effin', stupid Repuketards! I love them, but put up with their stupidity.

I think you guys got rigged in Ohio. Chimp needed your state badly, and guess who said he would deliver it to the Smirk, well Diebold's owner, of course. How convenient! (20th paragraph down) http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/07/28/sunday/main632436.shtml

[kineneb]

135. personal space in Germany

is bigger than US personal space. They don't give hugs, but instead shake your hand. Merkel must have felt like she had been slimed. Incidently, Bild is a cross between the old Life magazine and a tabloid. But it often has lots of interesting stuff.

Gad, is that man a total embarassment.

[silverojo]

276. Yes, Germans in particular don't like groping chimps

Seriously, keeping a respectful distance and issues of personal privacy are a big thing in German culture. What a fucking idiot that man is, drunk or otherwise!

[wake.up.america]

287. Shows the total lack of respect for other cultures. Don't get too close in

such cases.

People whom I have known for years still use the Sie form with me.

I have almost daily contacts with business partners and it is a handshake and Sie, not an attack from the back while sitting.

[Pacifist Patriot]

440. I don't understand it, but for some reason Germany seems to have...

a "relaxed" reputation to most Americans I know when the reverse is true. The culture is actually quite formal and reserved. I lived there for almost four years and wouldn't have dreamed of walking up behind some of my friends and giving an unsolicited backrub. To a foreign leader?!

I'm appalled as a woman, an American and a human being. *sigh*

[wake.up.america]

516. I agree. It's called respect. He can do that to his "buddies" at a Texas .

styled BBQ, but not at a G-8 meeting.

[LiberalFighter]

136. Babs has to have manners to be able to teach manners

[Lindacooks]

162. Nope. She didn't teach him to chew with his mouth closed either.

Or to not talk with your mouth full. Oh, and she also forgot to teach him to respect other people, follow the Golden Rule, walk like a human being, etc. etc.

[WinkyDink]

298. Why, yes; Mama taught him never to bother his beautiful mind

about others' deaths, starting with his sister.

[PurpleChez]

Babs is a pig. Whddaya expect?

[wordpix2]

528. Babs was too busy on her yacht, er, cruise ship, to teach King GW

[elehhhhna]

495. VIdeo doesn't look like massage as much as an attempt to

go "boo" and tickle her by pinching her shoulders. Not TOO hostile.

[tridim]

32. OMG, the video is incredible

Her reaction was like, "Get the hell off of me you freak!"

KO will have a field day with this clip.

[DoYouEverWonder]

49. It looks like he's attacking her

At first he's just walking by behind her, they with no warning he turns and grabs her shoulders. I love her reaction.

Very creepy and inappropriate for any man to do that to another woman, especially one who is not his wife.

[malaise]

323. It is a zillion times worse

to do this to the leader of a country at at international summit. I cannot fuckign beleive what I'm seeing.

[DemonFighterLives]

365. Especially she appeared to be having a conversation

Children should learn not to interrupt while adults are speaking. It is very rude.

[Carni]

476. I was also amazed by the speed of his attack in the video!

It was like a dash to grope and then a quick escape...WTF?

It reminded me of Napolean Dynamite when he threw the "vote for Summer" button at Don and then ran...

So nice to see we have such a dumb ass supposedly leading the so called free world.

[mom cat]

94. Howling, sides splitting, chocking on belly laughs!

What part of "Get the fuck away from me!" was unclear?
She stood up to him while sitting down.
Thanks so much for the clip! :spray:

[man4allcats]

207. Her reaction was truly great.

There's only one other thing she could have done that would have left me rolling on the floor in helpless, hysterical laughter. I wish she would have just turned around and slugged him! :rofl:

[malaise]

321. Looks like she came real close

I cannot fugging believe this.

[ourbluenation]

99. Can't wait for The Daily Show!!!!!

Mwahahahha Mwahaha Mwhahaaaaaaaaaaa~

[garthranzz]

169. Oh, please, someone post the clip from the Daily Show - and KO! n/t

[Kolesar]

333. W.W.C.D.--What Would Colbert Do?

Colbert already did the "soft hands, and I could only imagine what his lips feel like" joke on Old Joe-mentum. What would be the great gag on this sequence?

[uppityperson]

171. video is worse than the still shots by far

still shots it looks like it might actually be a neck massage, video he grabs her as he walks by her. Wtf?

[zippy890]

315. yes, the video is frightening

he swoops in without warning. WTF is right!

[populistdriven]

233. I'm Mr Body Massage!

[Greyskye]

433. Video is worse than the stills!

It was only about 1.5 seconds until she shrugged off his slimy hands with an unmistakable "Get the hell off of me!" gesture. :puke:

175. LA Times reported it (sort of):

Russia's Time to Shine on World Stage
Huge mansions and ceremonious greetings at a palace add sparkle to the G-8 summit.
By James Gerstenzang, Times Staff Writer
July 17, 2006

... It's safe to say the former chancellor never got the treatment Merkel received from the president.

Entering the meeting room, as relayed by a Russian television camera, Bush headed directly behind the chancellor, reached out and, placing both hands on the collar of her gold jacket, gave her a short massage just below the neck.

She smiled ...

http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/asection/la-fg-preen17jul17,1,2442410.story?coll=la-news-a_section&ctrack=1&cset=true

[silverojo]

277. "She smiled" ?

She reacted as if someone had shoved a cattle prod up her butt!

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

351. OK now. That's some imagery I could have done without. Ew. -nt

[coalition_unwilling]

471. I cancelled my subscription to the LA Times for just such

bullshit. They've got a new RW publisher brought in by the goombahs of the Tirbune Corporation to preside over their continuing decline in paid circulation (now below 900,000 in last audited cycle).

[eviltwin2525]

206. I toyed with that thought, too, but....

who could even imagine something this bizarre and despicable? No, I've decided this is too strange to be fiction. Sadly.

[autorank]

502. It's as real as stolen election 2004;)

...next time some ass hat gives me a hard time about that (and you know who you are), I'm just going to link to these photos...wow!

[gristy]

13. what an complete, absolute fucking idiot

That just takes the cake. This so-called "leader of the free world" is completely insane.

[originalpckelly]

14. NO JOKE: I put up a poll question asking if they were an item last week...

trouble in paradise.

[Rabrrrrrr]

15. Too bad she didn't break her bottle and go after him with it

[PWRinNY]

16. Well I hope she learned her lesson

Never, and I mean NEVER, give that pig a pig.

[Rabrrrrrr]

18. And never turn your back to him, either.

[rateyes]

87. That's funny. ROFLMAO. nt

[Viva_La_Revolution]

19. Just when you think there are no more etiquette rules he can break

he finds a big one.

[Kurovski]

293. "Pull my finger" can't be far behind.

[wakeme2008]

20. Unbelievable but then

I keep saying that and Bush tops himself again...

[Neecy]

23. Omigod....

I'd tell him to keep his fucking monkey hands to himself!

This jerk has ZERO respect for ANYONE, male or female. Every day you think you've seen/heard the worst and he just goes a step further. Deranged.

[Drum]

35. His take on the Presidency (and America)

has all to do with rights, and nothing abou resposibilities. Being a rich spoiled asshole, he thinks he has the right to do whatever the hell he wants to. It's commonplace anymore, and even poor stupid assholes are emulating him.

What a disaster...he and his are setting civilization back by at least a century.

[tridim]

24. What's he up to now? 5 fuckups in about 5 days?

Gawd that's repulsive.

[Lost-in-FL]

25. How embarrasing!

This is HUGE!!!111!! What a moran!!111!!!

[stepnw1f]

26. OMG How Idiotic

hey troll? You voted for this guy? You ok?

[Benhurst]

27. What a total asshole! Recommended.

Don't know whether to :rofl: or :cry:.

[populistdriven]

29. Bush is the most pathetic waste of human protoplasm to ever wear a suit

[Avalux]

30. Ick! Ick! Ick! Why the hell did he do that?

Did he think because she roasted a pig for him, he could grab her by the shoulders like that? Disgusting piece of shit.

[AlCzervik]

31. he reminds of this idiot i used to work with that for one did no work

and he called everybody "Chief" and "Big guy".

[berni_mccoy]

33. O.M.G!!!! He thought Merkel was Condi with a blonde wig on!

[peekaloo]

36. He looks wasted. That's exactly what a drunkard friend of mine does

when he thinks you're pissed at him, sneaks up and massages your shoulders. I hope The Daily Show has this one.

He gave her the heebee jeebeez.

[marions ghost]

93. yeah

my sleezy stepfather used to like to do that unwanted neck massaging thing too when he had too much to drink and was commandeered by his primitive brain. It was a condescending pawing gesture, an irritation. I felt my skin crawl just like the chancellor's obviously did, when viewing these pix.

[w4rma]

37. Creepy. This one belongs at #1 for the next Conservative Idiots. (nt)

[Heywood J]

69. Seconded. What a barbarian!

What, is she now "his woman" or something? What else could have occurred in his mind to allow him to do that?

[Auntie Bush]

153. He's so used to doing that to Condi he did it out of habit.

[City Lights]

38. Sexist pig!

:puke: I'd react the same way if he touched me. :puke:

[senseandsensibility]

39. He thinks he's charming.

He has totally lost touch with reality. This is scary.

[The Wizard]

346. You assume

he had been in touch with reality. Simply put: He's off the fucking wall.

[uppityperson]

40. still thinking about that pig, eh?

[berni_mccoy]

41. "Error: You've already recommended that thread."

THIS NEEDS TO BE ON THE FRONT PAGE!

Send it to the Daily Show!
Send it to Olberman!!!

[gimama]

73. [e-mail] ..

and the youtube!

[KingFlorez]

42. That pervert

I guess Condi isn't enough extracurricular activity, he wants to add some German studies to that.

[emulatorloo]

43. kick n/t

[flordehinojos]

44. might she be stretching after that massage because it might have felt

relaxing in the middle of what must have been anxiety drenched days?

I don't get her need to stretch after the bushitboy rubbed (or massaged) her shoulders.

[senseandsensibility]

46. Look at her face

She's not relaxed.

[fishwax]

141. and his face too

in the last two frames he looks like he's realizing he just screwed up and wondering what to do next (so, naturally, he slinks off) ...

[RevolutionStartsNow]

54. You gotta watch the video

She throws up her arms like "Eeeek! Get yer hands off me!"

In fact, most people would have that reaction if accosted from behind by someone like that. I'm sure they are tense in those meetings, and to have someone just grab her from behind must have freaked her out.

As someone said upthread, what do you think would've happened if someone did that to Bush?

[flordehinojos]

knock-down drag-out war if anyone had done that to bush.

:)

[eppur_se_muova]

531. "what ... if someone did that to Bush?" THEY'D GET THEIR ASS KICKED !!

Tackled by Secret Service, knocked to floor, crushed, pummelled, and dragged to "secure" car. Not seen again for days, assuming they were someone important enough to be seen again at all.

Where were Merkel's bodyguards? Oh, yeah, they were assuming she didn't need protection from OTHER LEADERS.

Well, NOW THEY KNOW BETTER. A SECOND INCIDENT WOULD NOT BE TOLERATED.

[Bluebear]

58. See the video and judge for yourself

http://www.bild.t-online.de/BTO/news/aktuell/2006/07/18/merkel-bush-liebes-attacke/merkel-bush-liebes-attacke.html

[RaleighNCDUer]

230. That headline "Liebes-attacke auf Merkle"

Does that translate correctly as "sexual assault on Merkle"?

[silverojo]

278. It's literally "Love attack on Merkle"

In German, "sexual harassment" is written as "Sexuelle Belästigung":

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexuelle_Belästigung

What he did was still pretty effin' revolting.

[mtnester]

326. That was NOT a stretch...

trust me...it was throwing off and a protective motion completely

[Crankie Avalon]

338. What "stretch"? She raises her arms to get him off her and then shudders.

[Marie26]

392. No, she's throwing

back her shoulders to say "get away!" She looks totally creeped out the whole time.

[Patchuli]

442. I don't think he 'relaxed' her

Her body language (as I read it as a fellow woman) says: "EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWUUUU!!" Get your frikking hands off me you warmonger!! I would have done the same. The stretching motion is to throw off the feeling of his paws on her!

[tanyev]

45. Astonishing. Simply astonishing.

[leeroysphitz]

47. Jesus. What a maniac. Is he losing it?

How could such behavior seem even remotely appropriate?

[roamer65]

48. Raisinbrain is like an uninvited party "guest"

I can only think most of the leaders were wishing he'd just leave. Except Blair, who wanted to do for Bush what Monica did for Bill ;)

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

50. Schwarzenegger felt he could come up to any woman and touch her

without an invitation. Must be something about these right-wing nutjobs.

[me b zola]

51. It looks like one of chimp's minders has waved him off of Merkel

The second to the last pic looks as if someone has gotten the attention of the idiot in an attempt to stop further molestation of Merkel.

Geez, there are not enough adjectives....

[Mr_Spock]

52. Who is that creepy doofus who snuck into the G8 & attacked a head of state

???

What a buffoon he is - unbelievable...

[Mabus]

53. She was afraid he'd do a Putin next

I think this the adult equivalent of how that baby felt the other day.

[Sugarcoated]

122. Or God forbid a Berlusconi air-hump

He's quite the boundries-crasher. He's so many things.

[Mabus]

149. rofl

:spray:

[Stardust]

252. Did anyone else think the Putin thing was cute besides me?

Ok, I'm officially sicko now. Must leave DU and get sleep.

[druidity33]

332. i wasn't offended...

Though i think it would've been more comprehensible had he rasperried that belly. Who hasn't done that? But he loooked so darn serious... my question is, was Putin born in the countryside or in the city? Seems like your average "uncle Mikhail" type behavior, a wacky yet affable family member you see at holidays... on the farm. anyway... you're not sicko... but i didn't think it looked cute, kinda sad. Like he missed his kid, or was remembering being a kid, or something...

whatever... certainly not a big deal IMHO.

[Stardust]

515. Agreed.

I just have nobody to bounce things off of and it got such a huge amount of attention. Just wondered if anyone else wasn't shocked or disgusted. But on the other hand, if Chimpy had done it I'd probably feel otherwise.

[TheLastMohican]

393. Yes, you are officially sicko

Russian culture is very different, men openly kiss each other and nobody in the right mind would call them homosexuals. They are much closer together as a society and brotherhood. America was built on individuals, Russian Empire was built on collective work and the feeling of the shoulder of the guy next to you.
So kissing a child is completely a norm in Russia, Russian newspapers don't make a fuss about it, only American, where pedophile problems have completely ran out of hand.

[Stardust]

514. I lived in Russia for 2 yrs. Maybe that's why I wasn't offended.

[WinkyDink]

302. 3-year-old boy, not a baby. Kid was just standing there. EWWWW!!!

The WORLD is run by WHACK jobs!!

[TexasChick]

55. K&R...sorry, ariesgem. I checked to see if there were any other

threads about this and I didn't find yours before I started mine. I like your layout better. It's easier to see the embarrassing and gross display of the Chimp's behavior.

[ProgressiveEconomist]

268. Kick

[chiffon]

56. Uhmmmm.. That looks like predatory behavior, NO???

[me b zola]

57. NO MEANS NO YOU PUTRID FRAT BOY

:puke:

[Dr Fate]

59. His fake Southern Charm is neither Southern nor charming.

That crap may work during cocktail hour at the Conneticut Country club, but keep your hands to yourself otherwise.

[MaryRN]

533. Sorry...it doesn't work here in CT either.

[Dr Fate]

535. No- I should apologize- point taken! n/t

n/t

[spindrifter]

60. He has no boundaries!

I probably would be looking into whether he could be charged with assault! Heh! Heh! We would then have the misdemeanors part of the equation for sure.

[IndyOp]

61. This is more and more like Hitler in the bunker at Wolf's Lair -

Insanity during his final days.

Please, former President G.H.W. Bush -- now would be the time to step in...

So, this is what he must do to Condi during cabinet meetings - rub her shoulders? Foreplay for the evening?

What Chancellor Merkel is feeling - that is exactly what I feel when I see him.

[leftofthedial]

62. look at that moron

what a cretinous, drooling idiot frat boy

[TexasChick]

63. Can someone send this to Keith Olbermann?

Wonder if David Letterman will have something to say about it as well since he loves to diss the Chimp!

[Neecy]

64. Germans won't be amused

Europeans don't tend to paw at people in professional settings or grope, massage, or otherwise backslap. I worked in Germany and they certainly didn't engage in this hillbilly behavior.

I think Germans will be even more offended that he pulled this crude Texas stunt on their Chancellor. Does he have to play Ugly American every single time he goes overseas?

[theHandpuppet]

106. I'm a hillbilly -- GWB is NOT

He's a privileged, Connecticut-born son of Hitler-loving lineage whose family transplanted themselves to Texas thinking they could set themselves up as the Texas royal family.

Hillbillies know better.

[GrpCaptMandrake]

193. Hear, Hear!

from another Hillbilly.

Are Mommas woulda had a fee-it if'n we'd'a tried sech as that-there.

An' Daddy woulda tooken us t' th' woodshed!

[Mira]

166. My mother, a German living there, called me and was very upset about this.

She did not see the whole thing, and her upset was with her Chancellor for letting GWB touch her.
She said she was so happy she had not voted for her :)

I enlightened her about the Merkel reaction, and she felt better.
YIKES.
I would so freak out, too, if he touched me.

[Thoreau-Ly]

426. The Inappropriateness is Stunning

Even this kind of suprised me. It's like, "Don't...OH, NO! NO!"

[Betsy Ross]

65. He wasn't massaging her shoulders.

He was squeezing her trapezius (sp?) muscles. It's an old frat boy way to hurt/annoy someone.

[senseandsensibility]

75. Well, that's worse.

And I think you're right. It went by too fast to be a massage.

[Gregorian]

66. Bush, chancellor is not Condi!

Well, it appears Merkel is not in with the in crowd. Good for her.

Bush-bot gets stimulus. Moves in different direction. Why Merkel bad? Condi good. Cheney good. Merkel bad...

[marions ghost]

67. I wish she had

shoved her chair back a little harder. What women leaders have to put up with...

Gosh, he's just a gaffe a minute over there.

Put him out to pasture in Crawford.

[geardaddy]

450. Better yet....

Send him to the glue factory!

[DirtyDawg]

68. If it had been a guy...

...it would have been 'NOOGIES'...unless, of course, he had had a towel.

[shanti]

236. nah, he rubs men on their heads

:eyes: and especially loves it when they're bald heads.

[pa28]

70. Whether he's making out with the Emir. Ripping at Hu Jintao's clothing

or giving Angie Merkel a hot oil massage. He always seems to have that same look on his face. The "Who me? What?"

[madokie]

72. so much for the warm relationship with Germany

he'll need a wool suit and sweater the next visit, if ever there is one. what a dumbass

[Warren DeMontague]

74. Okay. He's drunk and/or has serious brain damage. I'm not shitting now.

He's like a child.

[Mojambo]

77. That is hilarious!

He is such a shrimpy, ineffectual man.

He just radiates Don Knotts in this particular moment.

[PurpleChez]

100. That's an affront to the legacy of Don Knotts!!!

¡Viva Don Knotts!

[yorkiemommie1]

200. Don Knotts is DUBYA !!!

http://dubyamovie.com/


As for *, he respects no one, least of all himself and this is reflected in all of his actions. Sorry excuse for a living (?) being.

[PurpleChez]

317. Good thing I didn't get my cereal yet,

cause I woulda snarfed!!!

[Sequoia]

437. No, Don would never do that. But since you brought it up......

here's some fun for ya:

http://dubyamovie.com/large.html

[Octafish]

78. He's a pig.

Smirko's showing the women folk he can give as good a shoulder rub as anybody his side of Jeff Gannon.

A SICK MIND

[Ken Burch]

90. If we only had video of Dubya giving a backrub to Jeff Gannon!

There's no way the Red Staters could let THAT one slide!

[Octafish]

116. Whoever has THAT film is probably in charge.

In the meantime, all we have is a head rub moment.



The grapevine, however, is filled with Bush stories involving W's college roomie, now Ambassador to Poland, Victor Ashe -- a fabulous man.

[Ken Burch]

463. That headrub shot makes me want to soak my cerebrum in bleach

Ye Gods!!!!!!!!!

[yurbud]

478. nope, gay experimentation would just be a youthful indiscretion

youth extending to just this side of 60 for retarded spoiled trust fund babies like Bush.

[berni_mccoy]

79. LA TIMES PROPAGANDA!!!!! ========>

From: http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/asection/la-fg-preen17jul17,1,2442410.story?coll=la-news-a_section

It was a lesson in body language.

On his way here, the president spent much of Thursday with Merkel in her Bundestag district in northeastern Germany, building on a friendship that began with her earlier visit to the White House, a welcome guest after her conservative coalition turned Gerhard Schroeder out of office last fall. Schroeder's opposition to the war in Iraq had made him a thorn in Bush's side.

It's safe to say the former chancellor never got the treatment Merkel received from the president.

Entering the meeting room, as relayed by a Russian television camera, Bush headed directly behind the chancellor, reached out and, placing both hands on the collar of her gold jacket, gave her a short massage just below the neck.

She smiled.

[TexasChick]

85. OMG! "She smiled"! Does that look like a smile to you? Looks

more like a face filled with terror! Sure thing, berni_mccoy, propoganda indeed!

[glitch]

272. Looks like a grimace to me. nt

[TexasChick]

493. Yeah, something like that...but definitely not a smile! eom

[Crazy Guggenheim]

86. IT's an embarrased smile.

[Lost-in-FL]

103. Smile?

That's more like a painful gesture, disgust.

:hurts: :hurts: :hurts: :hurts: :hurts: :hurts: :hurts:


Germans are not very fond of public displays of affection.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

132. I meant the last photo.

[bliss_eternal]

273. She looks like he's giving her the willies...

and the heebie-geebies. :rofl: That poor woman. Maybe we should all chip in to get her rabies shots. ;)

[Crazy Guggenheim]

279. I know, that's what they're trying to say when she smiled. Incredible.

[GOTV]

384. Is there a longer video?

As I watched the one video sample it did strike me that it looke like she started to smile over her shoulder at Bush as he walked away but the video ended too quick to know. It might have been a nervous smile or an embarrased smile or a "Don't take offense I just don't want to be massaged now" smile, but it looked like the start of a smile.

That might be the expression the LA Times is referring to and not the disturbed look she had at the moment W had his hands on her.

A longer video would answer that.

[Warren DeMontague]

96. Smiled? She acted like someone had poured hot coffee in her lap.

Feh. Next those shitheads will get Mike Ramirez to draw a cartoon of our great, friendly, witty, oh-so-personable masseuse in Chief.

[oasis]

260. Rove memo: Send a word of "thanks" to LA. Times writer, J. Gerstenzeng.

;-):puke:

[tanyev]

359. 1st draft: "She smiled and then quickly left the room for a cigarette."

[Lisa]

80. how NOT to act at a G-8 meeting!

Show up and paw the dignitaries (especially the host) -- yeah, that'll go down really well.

[Lisa]

505. oh, make that "insult the host" (Putin) ...

... and paw the one woman in the group, who hosted the "pig dinner" at the previous stop.

I'm sorry -- he's been foisting himself on so many people, I forget exactly whose generosity he's abusing at any given moment!

[bdamomma]

81. bush is just a frat boy

something is definitely wrong with him, Condi may like that shit, but keep your hands off other women from other countries, he definitely has a screw loose, not what you call a President at all, he embarrasses me, what an a$$hole he is.

[mtnsnake]

82. I think he lost it & started to strangle her!

Look at the look on his goddamn face. He's fucking nuts!!

[lumpy]

299. Seriously, he is 'nuts'.

The man can't string a sentence together, he exhibits weird facial contortions, his reasoning is disjointed, has very poor body control. It isn't about him pulling frat boy pranks, a matter of ignorance, or stupidity, or being a dry drunk or making off-the-wall comments. Bush is mentally out of control. No joke.

[PurpleChez]

83. WHAT? THE? FUCK?

I can't believe I'm looking at this. In the picture second from the bottom it looks like the chimp is dry-humping the chancellor's chair.

[mikelgb]

84. What a FREAK! n/t

[Poll_Blind]

88. Oh...Oh my god...What the eff? What the holy effing eff? n/t

PB

[madmark]

89. she didn't like that very much; you know if he wasn't a fuck up

for 99.999999% of all the other things he's involved in (say he was generally competent like Clinton or his father Bush I) i'd give him pass on this, but that's not the case is it.

[Gregorian]

91. But Condi loves it.

[klook]

92. Make sure you alienate the few world leaders who don't despise you yet

Almost got an elbow in the nuts in the process. Good one, fratboy!

A couple of decades ago I worked with a woman who, in the middle of the floor in a large room with a few co-workers around, was grabbed from behind by this extreme creep who was one of the head honchos of the company. He apparently thought his third lunchtime martini had transformed him from a slimy, dandruff-shouldered, middle-aged putz into an irresistible Lothario. He thought he could get away with it because there were a bunch of people around, and tried to pass it off as a playful gesture. Totally unintimidated, without missing a beat in her conversation, my colleague instinctively gave him a hard elbow jab to the ribs. He grabbed his stomach, said "Oof!" and everybody laughed at him.

She was one of the coolest and sharpest people working in that hellish establishment, and went on to a great career. The creep who grabbed her is almost certainly dead by now.

[politicasista]

95. He doesn't even know how to massage, yet alone hold babies

:grr: :puke:

[liontamer]

97. Oh my

I can't believe its come down to this

[TheCowsCameHome]

98. What a sick puppy. The leader of the free world acting like a fool.

But it isn't acting. He is a fool.

She should have kicked him squarely in the nuts. Twice.

[hootinholler]

101. Der Chancelor is nicht der fingerpoken unt musclelgraben!

From the video site: "mit einer Blitz-Massage"

Einer Blitz-massage?!?

Jawhol, Blitz-Massage!

So much for my pigen-German.

I really can't believe this asshole. Where was her security detail?

-Hoot

[sangfroid]

423. Where was her security detail?

Interesting question and I shudder to think what would have happened if they had gone for their guns. There might have been a real gunfight between the Secret Service and their German counterparts and wow! I shudder to think what would have happened afterward.

Gee, ain't in wonderful, though? A drunken, stumble-bum, ass-grabbing, flaming right-wing fratboy as President. Every time I see this kind of crap on the TV, it's a race between weeping and gagging...

[ellenfl]

104. i don't read german but, from the looks of that website,

they are not amused. can anyone translate 'Bush: Liebes-Attacke auf Merkel!'?

ellen fl

[blonndee]

111. Something like "Love attack on Merkel,"

I believe?

[alcibiades_mystery]

137. No, it's being jokey

Liebes-Attacke means literally "love attack," but with the nuance it means something like a sudden infatuation, something like getting hit by Cupid's arrow; I'm not sure we have a similar term in English, maybe moonstruck or something like that. But it's full of double-entendre. The point is that Bush is a kind of weirdo warmonger; that's why they use the somewhat weird term Liebes-Attacke, the term uberrascht, which has both military and social connotations, and, of course, "blitz."

[Tin Man]

210. Thanks for the translation, AM

...I was wondering too.

[SammyBlue]

105. He puts the ASS in class and the DIP in DIPLOMACY

OMFG!!!

:wow: :wow: :wow: :wow:

[Stardust]

246. Laughed right out loud, SB!//

[Retrograde]

107. Suppose the situation were reversed

Suppose Ms Merkel decided to wander over and assault (and yes, I think this sort of touching a person without their approval is an assault) Bush. How many seconds would it take for the Secret Service to have her on the ground?

[LibDemAlways]

202. Merkel must have a security detail. I'm shocked no

one immediately brought the chimp down when he suddenly and inexplicably grabbed her with such a demented expression on his face.

[shanti]

238. the chimp

doesn't take no for an answer.

[alcibiades_mystery]

108. "überrascht sie mit einer Blitz-Massage..."

:rofl:

The German description is hilarious, really portraying the "massage" as an assault in nice double entendre warfare terms (uberrascht means both "overrun" and "taken aback"...and it's a "blitz" massage...:rofl:)

[eviltwin2525]

218. I'm not so sure

they're trying to be humorous....a valid alternative translation would appear to be plain ol' garden-variety "RAPE." Packaged politely, of course.

[alcibiades_mystery]

311. I'm not sure they'd be humorous about rape

It's too jokey for that.

[mare]

469. They are totally humorous.

It's BILD. They love Bush and they believe the Bush/Merkel relationship is something of a big love story.

[RagingInMiami]

109. He is insane

Fucking insane. Look at blank expression on his face. He is not all there. We always knew that, but shit, he is worse than I thought he was.

Is he off his meds?

[texanwitch]

128. I was going to say the same thing, his face was so blank.

I guess his meds wore off, everyday he does something stupid.

I am wondering if his keepers even care anymore.

[RagingInMiami]

138. And to think we have more than two year of this shit

Everytime he leaves the country, he does something stupid and embarrassing. Remember when he walked into the locked door?

What's next, him walking around with his pants around his ankles and a long strip of toilet paper dragging from his ass?

[whistle]

110. This qualifies as sexual harassment in the workplace

[Buzz Clik]

404. Without question.

A normal joe could get canned for that unwanted contact.

[ScreamingWhisper]

112. Looks like she might like a good "Bush-luvin" LOL

Sorry, couldn't resist the pun... no matter the subject

[LibDemAlways]

113. Looks like he's trying to choke her. Take a close

look at his face. He isn't smiling as though he's joking or kidding around. He looks deranged. Maybe the pig didn't agree with him.

[raysr]

118. Chimpy is absolutely

not ready for "prime time"!

[Marie26]

398. That's the scariest part

The expression on his face is just... blank. No smile, or talking, or anything. He's just this mad, massage-giving robot. Bush is losing it.

[milkyway]

115. Bush didn't act this crazy a few years ago. He can't face the reality of

his presidency. He knows he will become an infamous historical character (maybe even the person judged most responsible for the fall of the American empire).

He's totally fucking nuts, with no sense of proper social interaction fitting his position. It's almost as if he's denying to himself that he's the President of the United States; he escapes into some fantasy world where he's just your average jerk.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

145. Maybe we've just never seen the private George Bush

with all of the secrecy in this administration and the way he's been sealed off from the public. Every now and then, the truth slips through. At the second debate against Kerry, Bush nearly attacked the moderator, if you recall. Then when Bush appeared on the David Letterman show, he kept using a woman's piece of clothing to wipe his glasses, as though her shawl was his tissue paper. And wasn't there some incident involving the Queen of England? I don't quite remember the details.

[chat_noir]

188. Letterman pic

[Stardust]

251. Who's he grabbin' here?

[Dora]

410. This was during Campaign 2000

During a commercial break, Bush decided to wipe his glasses clean on the producer's skirt.

Because working wimmins are useful, you know, like towels.

[RaleighNCDUer]

237. The Queen of England bit was from "Naked Gun"I think

though it might have been the Chimp.

This guy is beyond parody.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

261. The Bush faux pas with the Queen was written about in Salon.com

Apparently, several years ago when Bush was still a young man, the Queen came to visit his family. Mom and Dad forbade George to speak to the Queen because apparently they didn't know what might come out of his mouth. Bush came to the dinner table wearing cowboy boots with writing on them saying "God Save The Queen". He proudly showed his boots to the Queen at the dinner table and instead of taking offense, the Queen asked George if he was the black sheep in his family. He said that he was. Then he asked the Queen "who's the black sheep in your family?"

And there was a more recent incident, with President Bush visiting Buckingham Palace. He refused to use the Royal Family's Palace chefs but insisted on having his own cooks cook his own food. And the Bush entourage apparently destroyed an historic old garden on the Palace grounds with all of the directional signs they planted.

http://dir.salon.com/story/opinion/world_press/2003/11/25/bush_visit/index.html

498. He also probably took...

...a dump in the royal commode and then didn't flush. Or perhaps flushed and clogged the toilet and overflowed it and then snuck out, letting the next guy take the blame.:hurts:

270. ?? I don't remember him nearly attacking the

[JDPriestly]

125. SEXUAL HARASSMENT

Surely he would not have dared to do that to a man. Merkel thinks she is about to be strangled. Bush's attack on Merkel was a sexist gesture intended subconsciously if not consciously to remind Merkel of her place as a woman. Her smile at the end is one of relief that she is still alive. She looks at her neighbor as if to confide, "Oh, well. Just more proof that Bush is insane. Might as well laugh it off."

I fear that Bush is pushing Europeans especially Germany into the arms of Putin -- literally perhaps. Who else is strong enough to protect Merkel from Bush's unwanted "advances"?

What Bush did is, at the very least, a terrible insult. Bush has completely gone off the deep end. He no longer has any control over his behavior. He is no longer able to conform his conduct to the acceptable norms of his environment. We're in deep . . . ., oh, you know, that word that Bush used so appropriately.

[jean]

212. Bingo.

[calmblueocean]

226. 125 posts later, and finally someone says it!

It's just really odd to me that so many people look at this and laugh it off. Imagine your Mom was at work, and had a big presentation to make in front of your company's corporate officers, and another presenter for a different company came up behind her and put his hands on her and pulled the same stunt George just pulled in front of everyone -- in front of the freaking cameras, for god's sake -- would you expect your Mom to find it funny?

You'd recognize it then for what it was: a show of domination.

It's not sexual, but it's definitely sexist. The very idea that he would think he had the *right* to walk up behind another nation's world leader and put his hands on her in that way just appalls me. It's beyond embarrassing. It pisses me off that this guy thinks he can just grope anyone in the room, and half the fucking country will laugh and cheer this frat boy asshole on.

[silverojo]

282. I think everybody knows it's sexist

The reason they didn't comment so specifically is that everyone's just so god-damned shocked at his reprehensible behavior, that we're mostly at a loss for words.

[Nay]

318. Yep, I've been waiting for it, too. The recognition that this is a show

of dominance, not necessarily a sexual thing. It's sexual in that many asshole men like Bush think that any woman, no matter her position in life, exists simply for him to grope when he gets the urge. But it is also a way to tell that woman that she is always, always, subject to his physical power, no matter what.

Honestly, I feel like puking, because I am beyond embarrassed. I'm howling for this asshole's blood. Someone impeach this maniac!!!

[Lars39]

412. If he was a dog he would have pissed on her.

Definitely a show of dominance.
Judging from her fists,it's the closest he's come to paying the piper

[shanti]

all of his idiosyncracies are demeaning to others - the patting of heads, mean nicknames, etc., they're all so childish. and he thinks he's just a barrel of laughs - goddam fratboy :mad:

Personally, it is beyond inappropriate, but I'm not surprised. Bush seems to think there are no boundaries that apply to him.

Chancelor Angela Merkel is talking with Minister President Romano Prodi of Italy - here come George Bush into the hall...

...Merkel talks with her neighbor at the table, and does not notice, how Bush approaches from behind

No. 3

...suddenly the US President puts both hands on Merkels shoulders

No. 4

...starts his Texan One Second Massage

No. 5

surprised, the Chancelor reacts (zuckt zusammen is a reaction of fear), throws up her arms, does not know who grabbed her from behind

No. 6

...and with a demeanor of innocence, the President, after the joke, takes the course towards his seat at the conference table. Merkel takes the surprise love attack with humor and smiles

216. eek! Maybe he's pulling all these stunts to use in those oh-so-funny

White House videos. Remember seeing him crawling on the floor of the Oval Office looking under furniture for wmd's?

[Fleshdancer]

142. WHAT THE F*CK??!!?

Just because he was born with hands, doesn't mean he has the right to put them all over other people. We already know he has problems understanding personal space since he's constantly slobbering over every bald male head he comes across but come the hell on already!

Many women feel very uncomfortable receiving a random shoulder massage from colleagues. It's unprofessional, even more embarrassing when it happens in front of other colleagues and it's a violation of personal space. It's fucking creepy.

This settles it for me. He's a drunk asshole sociopath. It's the only thing that makes sense.

[Joe Bacon]

143. Is there NOTHING this ASS can't do without getting a PASS from the media?

Bush is deteriorating, mentally. And the pace is accelerating, IMO.

Look at his expression. He's not even there. It's like it's an impulsive gesture and then he just moves on like he's in a daze. I think he's suffering from some form of dementia.

[Bonobo]

159. I agree with you 100%. He is deranged.

If this was the Enterprise, McCoy would have made him go to sick bay...

Bush's Fab Five
The president's favorite foreign leaders.
by Fred Barnes

PRESIDENT BUSH, en route to last weekend's G8 summit in Russia, paused for a day in what used to be Communist East Germany, where he learned from German chancellor Angela Merkel the proper way to carve a roasted boar.

Earlier in the day she and Bush had sat in front of a fireplace in the town hall of Stralsund, Merkel's hometown, and chatted. "It's a little warm for a fire," Bush noted, though there was no fire going in the fireplace. They conferred privately past the scheduled time for their joint press conference. At the press event, the president referred to Merkel as "Angela." He said: "We found that there is a lot that we agree on."

Of course, there is. Bush knew this from her visit to Washington last January, shortly after she had become head of a new Christian Democrat-led government in Germany. Following talks at the White House, Merkel predicted their meeting "will open up, also, a new chapter, as I hope, in our relationship"--the one between Germany and the United States. And it did.

Merkel is one of Bush's favorite foreign leaders…

the off camera diplomacy ala texas bar room, now this bizarre massage?

What would the repukes have done if clinton did this at a G8?

[LibDemAlways]

201. If Clinton had pulled a stunt like this - ever - the

repukes wouldn't have bothered going through the impeachment process. They'd have arranged for the guys in the white coats to show up, put him in a straight jacket, and take him away. Then they would have loosened his restraints just enough for him to sign his name on a letter of resignation.

177. I don't believe it.

[Spazito]

187. It doesn't look like it, the LA Times has commented on it...

"Entering the meeting room, as relayed by a Russian television camera, Bush headed directly behind the chancellor, reached out and, placing both hands on the collar of her gold jacket, gave her a short massage just below the neck.

She smiled."

http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/asection/la-fg-preen17jul17,1,2442410.story?coll=la-news-a_section&ctrack=1&cset=true

They didn't seem to notice her balled up fists, I am sure it was just an "oversight".

[ejbr]

178. This make me thoroughly depressed

I have read all of the previous posts and could not agree more with each and every one of you. However, I imagine reaching such a status as a woman, only to have some ass wipe take all of my hard work and effort away with one condescending gesture. I am the leader of Germany and this no good prick is treating me like someone in the secretarial pool (not that denigrating secretaries is acceptable either). Depressing.

[renate]

285. I share your depression...

On the other hand--welcome to DU! It makes me happy that you're here!
:hi:

[ejbr]

432. Well, this makes ME happy!

[Thoreau-Ly]

428. Yes, If You Think About It

Aside from the fact that the observations of it are absolutely hillarious, this thing is so weird. Why, God? Why?

America, humiliated again in one tiny fell swoop.

Seriously, sometimes I wonder, I don't mean to be simplistic, but how can you also not feel sorry for Bush? IT'S JUST EMBARASSING.

[ejbr]

434. You're right

A tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny (did I say tiny?) part of me does feel sorry for Bush for being so obviously stupid. People like Hannity and Coulter can hide their stupidity behind convoluted logic, this poor slob is just out there in the open. Sigh...

[eviltwin2525]

179. OH MY F***ING GOD!

Is that for real? I'm just at a loss for words to describe how bad this is. The ice caps are melting, the Middle East is exploding, and Pig-Boy has nothing more pressing than copping a feel on the leader of another sovereign nation. Ick Ick Ick! Oh, jeez....I have to go bathe in tick-dip to cleanse myself from merely having seen that. EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

This man has no sense of boundaries, no sense of decency and what is proper etiquitte and he calls himself a leader? This is so beyond inappropriate! Remember, this is the workplace! She is the leader of one of the largest economies in Europe! Would he do this to any male? And even if he did, its completely inappropriate.

I am beyond words...there is nothing about this man that surprises or shocks me anymore...until something like this, and then for a second, I'm shocked and disgusted... :puke:

208. Alarming

If the Emperor is really drunk, as Smoorgatz suggested, I find the thought disturbing. The President of the United States, with his finger on The Button, responsible (in part) for international relations and lawmaking, drunk?

I think that Duh-bya is a disturbed man. Especially after reading Bush on the Couch. The sooner we can get him out of power, even if that means Cheney in charge, the better for America. I'm completely serious, and I don't care if some Freeper reads this and says "you're a traitor". He's gonna take this country down.

-Nervous tics (e.g. "Hula Jaw")
-Inappropriate comments ("I thought you were talking about the pig")
-Zero admission of faults
-Paranoid fear of the unknown (no "unscreened audiences")
-Extrememly averse to any criticism (loyalty oaths)

Forget the impeachment, call a psychiatrist and get this man committed.

Me, I love watching the retard flop. One, it's good for the ol' ticker to laugh. Two, the less we respect politicians, the less power they have over us. Three, it's good for the anti-imperialist cause that the empire is seen as being led by a complete fucking monkey with uncontrollable hands.

Keep feeling up those foreign leaders, Bushie Boy. And next time, do it from the front!

[Pacifist Patriot]

441. I'd find it hilarious.....

in a movie. The fact that this is real life gives me the heebies. He's our leader? Ouch! Really, there is nothing but revulsion in all of this for me. I wish I could find it funny. Maybe in a week?

[bling bling]

223. My guess is that she WAS amused.

After looking at pictures of the two of them holding hands together at the summit and her smiling at him with a genuine look of happiness on her face, my guess would be that she and he now consider themselves "buddies". I think his little jokey massage thing was Bush's way of trying to be endearing to her in a playful way (personally, I think it's a little bit flirty even).

I know if it were me, I would have felt disrespected if someone in my professional world assumed I would enjoy a surprise play-massage while I was talking to someone else. There's a psychological aspect to it, like a power/control aspect underneath the surface.

But maybe she didn't feel that way. God I hope not, how embarrassing if she did.

[WinkyDink]

309. "Flirty" with absolutely NO facial expression? No; he's dazed and

[Julius Civitatus]

228. Bush quote in last picture: "She's probably a lesbo!"

What a frat-boy, unprofessional, childish, impolite behavior. What an embarrassment!

Not only it looks like she got offended by the unrequited "massage", but it also scared the hell outta her. You don't expect that in such a high level meeting. She looks definitively started by the unexpected gesture.

What did he expect she would do? Does he think the entire planet is his own frat house?

On the positive side, at least he didn't grab her boobs or gave her a nipple twister. Who knows!

Howzit going on the mainland? Settled yet?

Sashimi, Wasabi, Sushi, Teriyaki, Chow Fun, Lobsters, Crabs, Tako, Poi, kalua Pig....?

re MD...never saw the flick but I see where ya coming from.....

I can only imagine what she said in German..............."DIRTY OLE MAN" "PERVERT" "UNCOUTH" "DRUNKARD" "RETARDED" "LOBOTOMY?"

[oasis]

286. I think this massage story has legs.

As for me, I'm doing okay in L.A., although no spam musubi to be had anywhere.:-(

[opihimoimoi]

289. Especially when she announces her G Sot is not in the shoulders

Spam Musubi nai? How sad....

What the Hell is Life w/o Spa, Musubi?

Damn....light one for me....LOL

[Hubert Flottz]

340. Sir Jethro rides again!

If Bill Clinton had done that he'd have been impeached on the spot!

EDIT...Bush thought he could get over on her, cause they had a beer together the other day!

[ComerPerro]

259. He must be drunk, there have been lots of gaffes

[IChing]

263. Violation of space and NO WARNING.....

I've dealt with these in my life, his mother, his father and those issues with children.
We have an individual, that has repeatable done violations of personal space that has been witnessed by the world.
Now he violates the space of the world. He is not normal,,,,,,,,,,,,,or healthy......get it?

Folks, this isn't nuclear science

[yurbud]

264. in fairness to Bush, he may have mistaken her for his mommy, Hatchet-Face

Barbara.

Though in fairness to Merkel, she is Claudia Schiffer compared to Babs.

[proReality]

265. Will someone please throw a net over that moran jackass!!! n/t

[JackDragna]

267. On behalf of all Americans..

..I am so, so sorry Germany. Incredibly, incredibly sorry.

[silverojo]

284. I think we should make a web site to that effect

And e-mail the URL to everyone in the German government. Pronto.

[gardenista]

271. She should have head-butted him.

[YOY]

288. Lovin' you is easy 'cause you're beautiful...

Doo-n-doo-doo-doo

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Thank GAWD there were no blow jobs involved!!!

I'm sure the freepers will comment on her frigidity and that she was egging him on...

[Eurobabe]

290. He's inappropriate, but she should have never said

that she 'felt closer to him after his visit.' Asshat doesn't know the meaning of NO!

[Ino]

291. I get so angry...

...when he kisses Congresswomen, Condi and other women with positions. I would be startled beyond words if one of my colleagues or customers greeted me with a kiss! I saw a clip of him when he first arrived at the conference. He strode off with Putin, leaving Chancellor Merkel to walk with his wife -- to trade recipes I guess. WTF? He's so condescending and has no respect for anyone.

The frat boy thinks he's still in college.

[jmowreader]

294. George is going to be a Trivial Pursuit question someday

"Who was the first world leader to have the shit beat out of him on worldwide television?"

Bush has been asking for an ass-kicking for YEARS, it's a surprise someone hasn't done it already.

[Sugarcoated]

448. No lie I almost lost consciousness I laughed so hard at that

and peed a little:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[wordpix2]

529. LOL here too!

:rofl:

[lumpy]

295. Well, he has completely lost it.

His face clearly shows he has gone over the edge. Really, someone better reel him in.

[WinkyDink]

297. I HATE massages! And one from THIS PSYCHOPATH?! I'd think he was out to

STRANGLE me!

[cornermouse]

300. Ain't nothing like having a total stranger come up and start touching

you to make you feel lousy. Bush may think he's being friendly. I'm sure Merkel views it as a lack of respect and in all probability wanted to haul off and hit him.

[Gman]

301. OMG!!! He did the neck rub thing

Blatant sexual harrassment.

This is major. IF the MSM doesn't pick this up there really and truly is no hope.

[malaise]

348. This is not merely sexual harassment

this is a violation of international protocol. This is a major fuck up.
No fugging rules apply to this global embarrassment. :puke: :puke:

[lumpy]

303. Take a good long look at Bush's face.

He is not smiling or laughing, his face is 'drawn', puffy under the eyes, blank look to his eyes and his mouth and lips are slack(drooping). He is not in control. No joke.

[WinkyDink]

304. EXACTLY! He is TOTALLY affectless! Dull-witted looking! ZOMBIE!!

AKA: Psychopath.

[zcflint09]

305. As if they're doing hard work.

Did Laura stop putting out for Dubya, or was it the fact that he had to start taking Viagra?

[HughBeaumont]

310. Loner with a boner.

January 2009 cannot come SOON ENOUGH.

I'll be in front of the Blight House with a PACK YOUR SHIT AND LEAVE! sign.

Never, EVER put another Bewsh in the White House.

[tedzbear]

314. Disturbing.

I wonder if his breath down her back smelled like vodka or whisky?

[malaise]

319. This is one sick frat boy

who does not have a clue about international affairs. I am embarrassed for the entire planet. Good fucking grief.:puke: :puke:

[frankly_fedup2]

322. I had a boss that did that to a lot of us at a particular office job

I had 15 years ago. I was young then (as we most were), and we thought he was just a touchy/feely person. Come to find out, as time went on, the hands would come around a little more (with some of us). I had another boss that when I was bending over my female boss's desk showing her some figures, he walked right up to me and pushed his pelvis up against my backside. I jumped because I thought who in the Hell was touching my backside. He and my female boss kind of chuckled and I asked him if I was crowding him. This went on all the time in the offices. Sexual harrassment? Probably, but who could afford to lose their jobs? Most of us just laughed it off and went on. It was rather humiliating as well.

[RebelOne]

336. Sounds exactly like a boss I had many, many years ago.

Maybe we worked for the same company.

[frankly_fedup2]

352. Well I no longer work there and haven't since the early 80's.

It was a clothing manufacturing company. I worked in Cost Accounting in the main offices of the company for the comptroller of the company. The distribution center was right behind the main offices for the whole company. Any of this sound familiar to you?

That should tell you how old I was when this was going on as we do not have any clothing manufacturers in the US anymore . . .do we?

[Kellanved]

324. A honest mistake: He was told to "send a clear message"

And that was the best he could do.

Alas, I doubt that Bush Fan #1 Angela Merkel minds.

[sendero]

328. OMG!

[democrank]

330. Perfect domination shot.

Bundaries, George, boundaries. Someone...anyone...get this man some help.

[Canuckistanian]

358. Exactly. Domination is what it's all about.

He's done that in so many photo ops. HE has to be the superior, the one in control, symbolically the "provider", the "protector".

[Ganja Ninja]

331. Oh no!

What a dork!

I guess Chancellor Merkel doesn't like being touched by a mass murderer. Who'd of thought?

[singe]

342. drug testing

perhaps all elected officials in the united states should be drug and alcohol tested every day before being allowed "on the job site" as it be...hell we are testing junior high football players and big box store workers so why not test the shakers and movers of the seats of gument? this would make getting quorums to pass regressive legislation much harder.

[Ganja Ninja]

344. I could see doing it 4 times a year for all congressmen & women,

senators, the president and all his administration and appointees. I don't see why we shouldn't monitor them like professional athletes.

[singe]

349. daily

i insist on daily and let them live in old army barracks and beans and greens. there is no reason for them to be an elite class...

[Dubiosus]

343. Don't get it wrong guys

This is no attack, just the level they stand. If she would have known who was approaching than she
would have been lucky to get a touch from her new master...

When Merkel first visited bush after her "election" it was clear to me that this woman is
as submissive to "mighty" men as condi is. She lived in a dictatorship in East Germany and was
loyal to Honecker as well.

She likes them to much and this is the gesture to the words bush have spoken after their
BBQ. He actually said: "Her heart is filled with humbleness!"

After reading that I was and am convinced that now we are right in trouble.

Merkel is a disaster for my country and she is NOT a victim of bushes attack. She already acts
as your neocons do. Give tax cuts to the rich and forget about the poor people, cutting the
social security, the educational sector also and rising betterment levy from 16 ot 19%.

She was in love with Kohl and he grew her up. Now a mightier dumb ass has entered her horizon,
and he plays hardball with the world and believe me.

SHE IS NOT WITH THE TERRORISTS :spank:

[oasis]

353. See post #350. (eom)

[FighttheFuture]

366. Thom Hartmann has been talking about how Germany is...

being suckered with right wing crap there. Germany will miss many of their luxuries, that any advanced society woudl consider standard (health care, vacation, workers rights, etc.), after these locusts are done with them!

[Dubiosus]

378. Thom Hartmann

don't worry about the NeoNazis, they are brown crap, most of them are dumb as the Nazis in the US. They only would come to power if police and army refuse to carry out their orders...and leave a
vacuum.

hope that never will happen.

[Crankie Avalon]

374. She knew it was him. If you look a second time at the video...

...you will notice she sees him approaching. She shudders at his touch knowing it was him.

However, I do not doubt the rest of your post.

[Dubiosus]

381. may be

cannot see the video at work..thanks for the hint.

:evilgrin:

my slaves are brighter

[darkmaestro019]

377. I'm sorry, but "mightier dumb ass"

has made me anoint my keyboard with tea.

thanks. I needed that. It was a nice break from the facepalming I've been doing since I first laid eyes on these embarrassing, embarrassing pictures.

[Jacobin]

345. What in the hell is wrong with that creature?

[JVS]

347. Das ist ubercreepy

[tocqueville]

350. Steve Bell wasn't completely wrong

http://www.guardian.co.uk/cartoons/stevebell/archive/0,,1284265,00.html

[LynzM]

354. Oh my fucking god.

Every time I think he can't do anything more absurd, more debasing to his and others' positions, more disrespectful, he does. I can't even imagine what would go through your head, to make you think it'd be ok to just give another country's leader a little shoulder massage, in public, no less!!! :wtf:

He is an utter disgrace to our country.

[fearthem]

356. Being a woman, having experienced this sort of thing, I know..

he's made her very uncomfortable with his touching her in such a personal way, which is not only disrespectful, it's certainly out of place for such a setting. Her body language says same, particularly when she raises her arms in effort to release him (it says get your claws off me). He has zilch tact; and, apparently, he thinks he can wrangle these people like cows (after all, he's a cowboy), a subliminal message which says "I'm in control here" -- his attempts to win friends at the summit, demonstrated by such odd behavior, tell me he's actually extremely uncomfortable, himself, feels out of place, doesn't know how to handle himself in stressful situations (for him, meeting with world leaders is stressful, something he avoided for a long time -- just look at his tense face and how, before he finishes with her, he's looking for his next victim). He has to always revert back to his comfort zone, that of "head cheerleader," a clown. His conduct reflects very poor judgment.

[FighttheFuture]

361. He's a cowboy?! I though Bushie was a pig farmer...

[fearthem]

461. His audacity to touch Germany's Chancellor in such a manner was a message..

to everyone who was viewing: I'm in charge, here, I can do whatever the hell I please!

[fearthem]

462. His audacity to touch Germany's Chancellor in such a manner was a message..

to everyone who was viewing: I'm in charge, here, I can do whatever the hell I please!

[sangfroid]

518. I think the Chimp was sending a message...

The whole way he's blown off this meeting with all the weird BS has the distinct aroma of passive-aggressive dominance. He treats everyone with that psychotic pseudo-cowboy bonhomie that says "Hey little buddy, we're friends, right? Cuz if we ain't friends, we're enemies, and I'd just hate to have to get mean; you wouldn't like that..."

He's a brain-dead fratboy, but his staff isn't, and I'm thinking some of the more "cunning" (I almost typed "smarter", but my computer won't let me use that word in relation to this White House) back-room folks are using the old Crazy Nixon Approach used during the Vietnam negotiations in Paris: "Give the POTUS whatever he wants; he's crazier than a shithouse rat and his finger is on the button."

Either that or the Chimp has gone flat-out bug insane, Cheney can't control him anymore and someone really needs to activiate the 25th Amendment.

[atreides1]

357. Unwanted touching

Doesn't this fit the description of sexual harassment under federal law?

[SunDrop23]

362. He's DRUNK.

If you ever had any doubts, look at those pics.

[DUHandle]

367. I hope he didn't

leave a stain on her dress.

[YDogg]

370. If this is genuine, it is sexual harrassment without a doubt.

[Dubiosus]

373. Isn't fascism allways kind of sexist?

remember the old days....:evilfrown:

[NNadir]

371. So much for restoring dignity. What an embarrassment

[DUBYASCREWEDUS]

372. pResident

ASSHAT!

[npincus]

375. if a co-worker did that to me, I'd slap his face!

[LibertyLover]

376. The ones I really pity are her security people

It's a classic definition of stress - the desire to bodily throw yourself at the person who is attacking your boss but you can't because he's the POTUS.

[michael_1166]

380. Ok I hope Angela has now learned her lesson

regarding Bush. No more inviting him over to Germany for having a barbecue costing 15 million Dollars tax money we Germans have to pay for.

I also think her husband won't be exactly amused about the Bushman's behaviour.
Here's a rare pic of Angela Merkel with her husband... he almost never appears in public.

[Mandate My Ass]

382. rich white trash with no sense of propriety

He's revolting.

[eppur_se_muova]

532. But can he throw a good punch? That would have been interesting.

Talk about your "international incident"!

[Lochloosa]

385. Wait till Condi sees these photos...

She is going to be PISSED!

[michael_1166]

391. Hey don't spoil my memories of sweet Emma Peel in leather

with a pic of the devil! ;-)


ahh that's better ...

[Lena inRI]

386. Come on world leaders, speak out. . .

proclaim the emperor has no clothes. . .

Say what we all know. . .give the naked truth gravitas by public declaration.

Chimperor is FINALLY unraveling before are very eyes. . .something that the Rovian playmakers didn't plan on this soon.

:smoke:

[Alpharetta]

387. Keys to not getting a sexual harrassment charge:

Be good-looking.

:)

Reminds me of when Costanza was waiting for the elevator with a nice looking woman and he felt the fabric of her sleeve.

[cain_7777]

388. She should sue Bush for sexual harrassment

After all the war crimes he has committed...

[Marie26]

389. Ew.

Is he drunk? It's rare that Bush actually shocks me anymore, but this does it. Honestly, I think he has a crush on her & it's embarrassing to see.

[ecstatic]

390. Can she file a sexual harassment lawsuit?

Seriously, he wouldn't do that to Blair, so why does she have to be subjected to unwanted touching while on the job, just because she is female?

[darkmaestro019]

411. Exactly. Unfortunately

I think it'd get her called a whiner--and plenty of Them would start in on how she obviously WANTED a shoulder-grope or she'd be wearing a turtleneck........

[NJ_Lib]

She needs the "Carlos Mencia" office chair...

Did anybody see Carlos when he did that skit about the unwanted back rub from the office creep?

As he came up behind the woman to rub her shoulders, she hit F9 on her keyboard and out from the back of her chair came a shin with a shoe on it and it kicked the dude right in the nuts, real hard... Any woman subjected to being around the Chimp should be given this new, special chair...

She probably didn't want the Chimp hands on her because she was afraid her blaser would be ruined by all the dripping blood...

[Marie26]

399. That's what

I thought of too! Maybe each G8 chair needs to come equipped to stop roaming attacks by US Presidents.

[AmericasReporter]

394. I almost fell over when I saw this

This is sooooooooooooooooooo DISGUSTING and uncalled for. I can't believe this happened.


I know that his day in court and jail are fast approaching!!!


START THE REVOLUTION
START THE IMPEACHMENT

[lectrobyte]

397. Get your paws off me, you damn dirty ape!

[truth2power]

401. Again...I think it's dementia... and it's progressing..

Combine this behavior (social improprieties) with his cognitive disabilities and that's what you have. He may be drunk, too, I don't know.

This is serious, and to have him in the position he's in, even tho' we know he's not the preznit, is just asking for more trouble on the world stage.

Bush needs a medical/psychological evaluation. Please!!

[alcibiades_mystery]

407. It's syphillis

Youthful indiscretion, you know?

[durrrty libby]

413. This thread is hilarious

Though, I can’t figure out why it got more than 400 responses.

To me, he looks drunk

His behavior always seems to be off, sorta like rancid oil.

[Thoreau-Ly]

416. Seriously, Some Sort of Dementia

Heard it a long time ago, though perhaps just a theory.

Rancid oil, too, is pretty useless, though we could use it for biodiesel, right?

I feel kind of sad by the embarassment. It must be the Liberal in me; I really feel sorry that Bush was put in the office. He is in so far above his head it might just destroy this country.

[Dubiosus]

530. check this link

it doesn't work with my computer but it's worth to try

But I think he is not that ill he is not human either, these are lizards with

no empathy nor human feelings just wanting to dominate and exploit this world and than looking

for a new one...

455. Not that the boy-king wouldn't have been considered at-risk

given his reportedly promiscuous behavior but I don't think anyone needs to progress to tertiary-stage syphilis these days. :shrug:

[npincus]

402. that's no way to treat a grown-up embryo!

[lonestarnot]

405. Bwwwwwwwwwwwaaaa! :ROFL: Shower alert shower alert shower alert

[CatWoman]

408. Merkel: get your hands off me, you damn dirty ape!!

[slor]

409. He is such a dolt....

I guess he believed those lies that he was HOT!

[WinkyDink]

414. MY NEW THEORY: It would explain the serious, non-flirty face,

the INTENSE determination, and the brevity.
Plus, it is something we've seen Bush perform before:

THE LAYING ON OF HANDS.

I'm being totally serious. I think Bush sees himself as a conduit from God, much like a divine Right King would.

[WinkyDink]

415. My NEW theory that would explain the brevity, the determination, and the

seriousness of purpose:

The LAYING ON OF HANDS.

I mean this. Bush views himself as a conduit of God, as befits a Divine Right King.
And we've seen him do this before.

[Bushladen]

418. How come

They don't arrest him for war crimes while he's there? Charge him with sexual harassment and war crimes

[Pacifist Patriot]

420. Drunken idiot and a disgrace! Can we impeach NOW?

Okay, I know it's not an impeachable offense but that doesn't seem to have stopped people in the past from starting the ball rolling.

[afrosia]

421. Please tell me that she can sue him for harrassment or something?

...damn they're in Russia. No rights. Oh well, never mind.

424. "Merkel Massage" for ya

http://www.local-massage.com/female/massages/Texas/Merkel/review.html

[DaDeacon]

425. OMG what the hell!

That was insane!

[Up2Late]

430. I'd like to see better pictures, but "The Decider" looks drunk in those

Totally inappropriate touching of a secretary, let alone the Female PM of a major industrialize country.

[Penndems]

439. Oh. My. God.

*shakes head in disbelief*

A shoulder massage.

On the Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany.

Un-frapping-believable. I'm absolutely dumbstruck and, as an American, thoroughly humiliated.

What can I say? Somewhere in Texas, a massage parlor is missing a masseur.

[geniph]

443. You know, some numbnuts did that to me at work once

I don't know what the hell he was THINKING - maybe he thought it was flirting, the moron. He came quietly up behind me and put his HANDS ON MY NECK. Unfortunately for him, I a) am the youngest of 13, b) am a paranoid shithead, and c) had just completed a self-defense class. One of the things they taught us in the class was how to break a chokehold applied from behind. He scared the bejesus out of me, so I reacted instinctively - I shot a stiff arm up between his arms, as I suddenly stood and turned.

I bloodied his nose.

He never came within ten feet of me again. I felt slightly sorry for the bloody nose, but WHAT the HELL was he thinking? You don't touch people like that at work!

And THIS fecking eejit...my dawg, I am still in shock. I saw this last night and my brain still cannot process this. The fucker looks three sheets to the wind, and looks confused and dumbfounded when she reacts with obvious horror (and someone offscreen obviously said something to him, from the look on his idiot mug). "You mean she didn't WANT me to give her a neck rub in front of the entire G-8 summit? But she's just a GIRL." I only wish Merkel had reacted the same way I did.

Can you even begin to imagine the freeper reaction if Clinton had done this?

Gawd help us. This is the fecking leader of the fecking free world. And he's a shitfaced clueless overaged frat boy.

:scared:

On edit - it wouldn't surprise me if his "buddy" Putin gave him the bottle of vodka that started the whole humiliating embarrassing debacle - then sat back quietly laughing.

[myrna minx]

444. This man is insane.

[Pacifist Patriot]

445. Two DU Predictions

1. Georgie Boy just bought himself the number one spot on next week's Top 10 Conservative Idiots. Though I suppose we do have plenty of time left for him to top himself.

and this one is more speculative....

2. Some spokesperson or pundit is going to make the Top 10 Conservative Idiots making an assinine comment to explain this away or somehow blame it on Germany.

[Shredr]

This man is supposed to represent America. What a joke.

454. Spam! nt

[MODemocrat]

456. Maybe Bush is missing Condi

I just wonder how drunk he was when these photos were taken? He has no shame. It was bad enough when he wiped his glasses on Dave Letterman's producer's jacket. What a lush. :+ :+ :silly: :dunce:
:hangover: :hangover: :hangover:

[WI_DEM]

460. Arnold has been giving Bush lessons

no seriously, women are very uncomfortable when a man tries that kind of thing. Who do they think they are to put thier hands on them and start massaging them?

[ZetaSheila]

464. Uh, that's not Laura

I think he forgot he's not at home. But this is some real funny shit! :rofl:

[Up2Late]

465. I'd like to see better pictures, but "The Decider" looks drunk in those

Totally inappropriate touching of a secretary, let alone the Female PM of a major industrialize country. :banghead: :puke:

[Vinca]

467. He looks completely nuts.

Seriously. I've always had an idea in my head for a novel about a president who goes completely bonkers, but it appears if it gets written it'll be nonfiction.

[Harry Monroe]

468. Can we begin impeachment hearings now...

...over this???!!! If it's sexual harrasment, then let the hearings begin!!
I want to know if she asked for a massage; was this a welcome advance? BTW, what does Laura think of this??

What a fucking idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CanonRay]

470. 2-1/2 MORE years...Arrrrrrrrrrgh n/t

[bajamary]

472. He's drinking again

What an adolescent he truly is. I bet he's been drinking again. After all, real men can handle drinking and all kinds of other s**t.

God help us.

[Pacifist Patriot]

484. I doubt he ever quit.

I've always had a problem with the accusations of "dry drunk." I don't think he's ever been dry.

[nadinbrzezinski]

473. Ain't our Presnit lovely? This would earn him a

sexcual harrasment lawsuit in the private sector. At the very least I want to see a complaint from the German gov'ment, a sharply written complaint

[mhatrw]

477. When he's done being President, he can take over for Steve Carrell

on The Office.

[SlavesandBulldozers]

481. sigh.

just sigh.

[lebkuchen]

486. Bush is culturally illiterate, too.

His recent behavior demonstrates why the US is having problems in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I wonder how Bush refers to her...Angie? Angel? Honey? Sweetheart? in a society that uses the titles "Herr" and "Frau" even in informal situations?

[autorank]

499. This is pornographic...the guy needs some serious help.

I'm stunned. Each time you think you've gaged "the horror" he comes back and ups the ante.

This is not one of the worst things he's done, I realize, but it is one of the most revealing.
He thinks he owns everything, it's all there for his strange and disgusting amusement. Can you
imagine, this creep comes up and does this to you. She's shocked, then she's had it (raises her
arms), then he looks the guilty part and flees, the German Chancellor looking to make sure he's
gone.

Personally, I can't stand guys who do this. I've seen it now and then and I immediately think, what
a creep that guy is. I never revise my opinion...and this is guys who do this to their wives (kidding).

Shame on Bush. He's been a bad boy, right to bed now, no treat.

[FooFootheSnoo]

501. How embaressing...

I hate Bush, but I hope this is fake or something. I am so painfully embarrassed for our country. What an idiot.

[2QT2BSTR8]

503. OMG!! You have GOT to be joking...

:wtf:

I had not seen this yet. You at least need to have a familiarity with a person to even allow something like that. Bush cant even pick his nose without a "road map"!!

Hmmmm..I wonder if he was confused and thought Merkel was his Laura, and Merkel was like GET THIS CHIMPANZEE OFF MY BACK!!!

521. You mean that ain't what world leaders do?

You know, just goofin' around and stuff after talkin' about the war over here and the war over there and all that serious stuff. Us world leaders is kinda like a family see. Angie here is like our new kid sister see. It's all just part of bein' a big world leader and a war prezident kinda guy. See, we're leadin' the world and everything but we kid around. We're all buddies and everything.
