[Swamp Rat]

[Swamp Rat]

5. That's when Bushler came to NOLA to do a photo-op in front of St Louis

Cathedral. The state police beat up every local resident they could find who lives near the church... every one who was not indoors at the time of Bushler's arrival got beaten to a bloody pulp, no matter whether they were black, white, repuke or Democrat.

[Cha]

21. Yeah, we know from

the uncut bush&blair that bush is fond of "shit"!

[Caoimhe]

[Virginia Dare]

20. He's still drunk I gather....n/t

[wryter2000]

30. You're scaring me

You have him down to a T! <shudder> :hide:

:rofl:

[Cleita]

6. I watched him on CNN for about 5 minutes with the sound off

(I can't stand to listen to him)and he looks maniacal. I don't know if it's drink or drugs to make him emote the way he is with his arms and hands. I wouldn't want to be in the same room with him. He looks like he could go postal any minute.

[snappyturtle]

9. Me too....he's still babbling in silence....tuned him out! nt

[Mira]

10. Condescention - Paternalism - Petulance

I'm placing my feet carefully to not step in it -
while barfing into my popcorn

[Pirate Smile]

22. The mute button is my favorite button since December 2000.

[helderheid]

7. Oh I hope someone has a clip!

[kpete]

12. nothing new except

He seems to be trying a new approach of

screaming and then whispering and then screaming again -
the screaming makes him stand taller - the whispering makes him croach down.

I do NOT get it....but then again...who does?

There comes the screaming again...

[eppur_se_muova]

31. OMG ... I have this horrible, horrible feeling that's his idea of ...

how a black minister preaches, and he's doing his best to pull off the same act ... only without the sincerity, the audience empathy, the genuineness, or the charisma. Or any substance in the speech, for that matter.

Bu**sh** probably watched about 15 seconds of MLKJ and said, "Easy, I can do that." He always misoverestimates his capacities.

[onecent]

8. Have THEY shown anyone in the audience yet? I haven't seen

any of them. But I would love to see who is listening.

[unpossibles]

14. both of them?

then again, maybe he has a large audience of people who came to point at the funny man.

[kentuck]

11. Would he just shut the hell up and get off the stage...

Everybody there knows his game. Talking bullshit and doing nothing. All that money for Katrina, and AIDS, and for education, etc....all bullshit!

[helderheid]

13. I hear major applause now. Did he just announce he was resigning?

[goclark]

16. Someone please tell me my people are clapping for

him to exit the building! :banghead:

[LibDemAlways]

17. Must have said, "I'll now conclude..."

[kpete]

18. No,

but the torture is finally over...

[helderheid]

15. I just rewound my TiVo - there is a heckler - some guy came on

stage to whom * said "Don't worry about it - don't worry about it - I'm almost done" and the other man said "I know you can handle it." with a smile. Anyone else catch that?

[Cha]

19. Understand this,

shithead! You fucking :+

[glarius]

23. The 10 people clapped (it didn't seem more than 10) at the end as they

had during his speech. What a pathetic effort. He spun around and looked like he wanted to run off the stage. Did you notice how quickly Daryn Kagan broke in....trying to cover up for the lack of response from the NAACP people?....LOL

[jasmeel]

24. I wanna see some heckler video!

[calico1]

26. Damn, I was hoping to see a bunch of

women beating him up with their purses!

[w8liftinglady]

25. not ONE shot of the audience during speech...

[Jacobin]

29. Guess he didn't have his usual paid cadre of happy smiley faces

in the audience for the cameras to pan to

[Ganja Ninja]

27. African Americans understand the GOP is the party of ...

racists whites and greedy rich assholes. They Understand which party purged voter rolls before each of the last 3 elections.

[no_hypocrisy]

28. Newsflash: He doesn't care . . . n/t

[blogslut]

32. C-Span's

got the whole speech online now.

I scanned through it. There's a lot of crossed arms and stone faces in that crowd. I didn't hear very much applause until the end where President Peddles pimped the Voting Rights Act.

The incident with the patriots speaking truth to power comes about 32 minutes into the speech. Ironically. it comes just when Peddle's speechifying was at it's dramatic arc. As the men are yelling, Dubya is blathering about "Wounds not fully healed".

Then he goes on to mention his black friend Condi and how it's all the founding father's fault...blah blah blah...Voter Rights Act...speech over.
