Who's Afraid of Brokeback Mountain? >>>

[Stephanie]

(APPLAUSE)

Is that a Washington Nationals hat?

QUESTION: Wisconsin, actually.

BUSH: OK, yes.

QUESTION: "W" is for Wisconsin.

You're a rancher. A lot of here in Kansas are ranchers. I was just wanting to get your opinion on "Brokeback Mountain" if you've seen it yet.

(LAUGHTER)

You would love it. You should check it out.

BUSH: I hadn't seen it. I'd be glad to talk about ranching, but I haven't seen the movie.

(LAUGHTER)

I've heard about it.

(LAUGHTER)

I hope you go, you know...

(LAUGHTER)

I hope you go back to the ranch and the farms is what I was about to say.

(LAUGHTER)

I hadn't seen it.

(LAUGHTER)

(APPLAUSE)

*edit* I found a better transcript ~S

[BushOut06]

1. And to think - this man is in charge of nuclear weapons

Kind of scary, ain't it?

[DrDebug]

2. I know. "What does this button do?"

The lunatics are running the asylum...

[SammyWinstonJack]

14. !

:scared: What does this button do?

[sui generis]

3. I wouldn't soil the viewing of that movie by Lord Pissypants

it's quite alright with me if he never sees it, and I would say that even if I thought it was a B movie.

You can't appeal to the human decency of a sociopath.

Rancher. What a laugh. I'll bet the only kind of cowpokin' old Georgie's ever done is the kind we can't discuss here.

18. It would be a waste of art.

He's not used to seeing art without colorful pop-ups. :-)

[Ian David]

4. Gay Cowboys are bad. Gay oil sheiks are good.

[Double T]

7. I guess the movie 'Broke Back Mountain' hits a little too close.......

to home for a homophobic closeted gay guy.

[SkipNewarkDE]

5. Stupid fucking insulting moron

So he is making gay jokes now? I hope you go see Brokeback Mountain.... I haven't seen the movie, but i hope you go back to the ranch and farm.

He's a fucking insulting morons. The gays should be up in arms on this one.

[Stephanie]

12. yes, he is making gay jokes

he is snickering about a gay-themed movie like an adolescent homophobe.

[BOSSHOG]

6. Closeted Males on free republic.

Conservatives who drive out of their way to avoid an Army recruiting office. Loud mouth bush supporters who have to convince themselves they are manly men. Young republicans on our college campuses. dick cheney who had to father a lesbian to get out of military service. So sad for him, so wonderful for her. Ken Mehlman. Jeff Christy. And on and on and on.

[WI_DEM]

8. Senator Feingold saw it last weekend in Madison with his daughter

and her boyfriend and was very positive about the film--unlike the mocking chimp.

[mattclearing]

9. I am. Nothing worse that period piece westerns.

:D

[eeyore]

10. Dumbfuck Mountain...

Someone sent me this one. This seems about the right time to bust it out.

[Botany]

11. When does this horseshit stop?

"I'd be glad to talk about ranching, ......" bush

WTF does he know about ranching? His cattle are rentals, he can't ride a horse, he can't pound a nail,
and his ranch was built in 1998 for photo ops.

[MADem]

13. He knows a shitload about environmentally irresponsible landscaping though

He loves to cut that there brush, and destroy the habitat of wild creatures on that wasteland he calls a ranch!

[NYC]

16. The horseshit stops when the horse's ass

is out of the White House.

[Stephanie]

17. that day is coming soon

it's all unraveling

[Stephanie]

15. Brian Williams just showed this clip

Bush blushes like a ten-year-old and plays it up for laughs.

[KoKo]

19. Let me throw a BOMB..."Stephanie." I don't have an interest in it......

because it's an "AGENDA MOVIE."

Now...so you know...I'm a LEFTY DU'er.

:shrug:

[Stephanie]

22. huh?

:shrug:

[Strathos]

20. What a perfect opportunity for him to say

All I know is if two people love each other as much as I love my wife, how can that be a bad thing?

Yes, I'm dreaming, but man, if he would have said something like that, I'd have been, after I got up from fainting, eternally and exhuberantly supportive, of at least some of his ideas.

We now continue with our regularly scheduled program, Bigotry In The White House.

[Stephanie]

21. did you read the rest of the transcript?

look at what he discusses right before this question:

BUSH: And that's how I view my advice from Laura.

Plus, she does -- I mean, you know, I said some things -- "Wanted dead or alive" -- and she said, "Well, you might be able to express yourself a little better than that...

(LAUGHTER)

... George W."

And so she's a -- we got a great relationship.

You know, when I married her, she really didn't like politics and didn't care particularly for politicians either, and here she is the first lady of the United States.

And she is -- she's good. Boy, I'll tell you, when she speaks she's very credible because she's a decent, credible person.

And I love her a lot.

(APPLAUSE)

Is that a Washington Nationals hat?

QUESTION: Wisconsin, actually.

BUSH: OK, yes.

QUESTION: "W" is for Wisconsin.

[Stephanie]

23. kick - just played on AAR

Homophobia is just so funny. Ha Ha George. Good one.
