CNN.com headline: "The cussing, spitting, open-mouth chewing Bush"
It's a Jeanne Moos video about Bush's swearing and eating with his mouth open.

(No link, but it's on CNN's home page www.cnn.com)

1. Bush is a 60 year old man
If he can not behave with dignity and respect for the Office of the Presidency, then he should step down immediately. He is a disgrace and an embarrassment.

2. That's quite a change from the 'candid' spin CNN was
pushing yesterday. Maybe all our emails made a difference?

8. I agree completely.
I think the torture, the lying to get us into the war, the spying, the denial of judicial process, the lack of accountability, the corruption, . . . any number of things are worse than the bad table manners.

But I don't condone bad table manners either, and if bad table manners are what finally gets through to the American people what an unfit President we have, well then, I'm glad that they can at least pick up on the bad table manners.

I say "get through to the American people" because let's face it, almost all of the rest of the world already knows.

4. I said it yesterday when I first saw it. I'm more ashamed of him
eating with hs mouth full than of him saying sh*t!

7. I'm more ashamed of him for massaging the Chancellor of Germany
I'm not too upset about him swearing, except for the hypocrisy. Huge FCC fines, family values and all. I thought it was sickening for Charlie Gibson to describe Bush's swearing as "uncharacteristic." Face it, Bush has a foul mouth.

6. Strangely enough
I bet his approval rating jump a percent or two for the cursing and bad manners. In some places -coughtexascough- that passes as leadership, proves your not a Northeastern liberal elite intellectual femme.

9. uncharacteristic?
Wanna bet? * probably utters cuss words every time the camera is away from his disgusting face. Gibson is a liar to cover up for this misfit we call our leader, who by the way never even won an election in his life. He has to cheat to even call himself prez.

11. He's a low class slob....
not an ounce of class or dignity or manners. He's an out of control, lying, blubbering mess who decided he would never grow up. He thinks the whole world is enamored of him. Therefore, when he rubs someone's shoulders or insults someone with a cute "joke" or makes an ass of himself by proclaiming some profound bit of "wisdom", he thinks people are honored by his attention. He has a complete and utter belief in his own self-importance; that he is better than anyone, that his opinions matter, that he can solve problems by waving his hand. These beliefs are then verified by the sycophants he surrounds himself with.
