FOX News Exclusive
Brit Hume previews his sit-down interview with President Bush

<paraphrase>

Hume has talked to friends of Bush who are worried about him, how Iraq has affected his presidency. Hume asked Bush about that, and Bush answered: "I am fine. I am sustained by the prayers of millions of people" Bush said this burden (presidency, Iraq?) is not heavy...

[warrens]

At night he kicks Barney all over the White House

You just know he does.

[devilgrrl]

1. Bush's dog is worried about him?

:crazy:

[mod mom]

12. I'm sure Barney is just another media prop. Laura still has to hide the firecrackers

to keep the dog alive.

[valerief]

17. LOL! Golden. nt

[npincus]

2. awwwww.....

at least he will always have Laura and Barney.

[MoonRiver]

3. I'll let a smilie do my talking...

:nopity:

[No DUplicitous DUpe]

4. Bush still has friends?

More like people who used to like Bush...

[stanwyck]

25. I wonder who his real friends are

not the political players who just want to ride along. But real friends who will tell him the truth. Does he have those friends? Does he have people close to him who can advise without personal interest? People who have known him a long time and who he trusts? People who trust him, as a person?
We haven't really seen that in six years. We've seen him surrounded by political operatives.
But friends?
Who are they? Where are they?

[Ilsa]

5. Yep. They are worried and hiding the keys to the liquor cabinet. nt

[Bobbie Jo]

6. Ok...who did he talk to?

Laura or Barney.....:shrug:

[central scrutinizer]

7. It would be heavy if you gave a shit

nfm

[etherealtruth]

13. That was my first thought

Only a sociopath would not be "burdened" by the hell that has been unleashed in Iraq

[katsy]

19. only a sociopath would start a war of aggresion. n/t

[etherealtruth]

22. Touche`

[sandnsea]

14. You have to have the emotional capacity first

I'm sure he sleeps like a baby every night and I don't think he even needs booze to do it.

[Julien Sorel]

23. I think he misses a lot of sleep.

But it's because he's worried about his legacy, not all the people who have died because of his stupidity, amorality, and hubris.

[nickyt]

8. Actually, they shouldn't be worried!

they should be t e r r i f i e d
(thanks, Sen. Leahy)

[fooj]

9. Oh wow. He HAS FRIENDS?

[whistle]

10. Oh Jesus, now BushCo is pulling the sympathy card

....they should have begun worrying about Bush in February 2001

[jedr]

36. May well be the case......

Can hear it now " Why would they want to impeach him and charge him with war crimes? He gave his all for this country and did god's will" I don't trust anything that Fox News says.:nopity:

[partylessinOhio]

11. HA! Worry on, worry on. I wouldn't waste my time.

[bluerum]

15. Is the squatter is so damn enamored of prayers and burdens he

should be a fucking monk. The burden of presidency is heavy. If it seem not to be - then you are not doing your fucking job you vacuous POS.

We need someone willing to deal with political reality running the country - not some spaced out work avoiding intellectually vacuous ex-substance addict.

Prayers of a million people indeed. Those prayers by the way - are for the acceleration of your complete and utter collapse Mr.Squatter in chief.

[Demeter]

16. BUSH Has FRIENDS????

I don't believe it. I want to see signed and notarized affidavits.

[stanwyck]

26. That may be part of the problem

He has political allies. He has political appointees and employees.
We haven't seen friendships outside the realm of political advantage.
Maybe they exist. Maybe he that capacity to forge real friendships -- mostly, we see political alliances.

[Lisa]

28. and even the appointees tend to be his father's friends

It's like he raided Bush Sr.'s Rolodex or something. You'd think that a guy who went to Andover, Yale, and Harvard would have an enormous network of contacts he could draw from (supposedly part of the advantage of going to such prestigious schools). Especially someone who is touted as a "people person" like Dubya.

Aside from Don Evans (whom he nearly killed while going for a joyride in a small plane), how many people are willing to claim him as a friend?

[WI_DEM]

18. If their worried he'll hit the bottle again--it's too late.

[liberalEd]

20. the rest of us are worried about what he's doing to our country. n/t

[lumberjack_jeff]

21. Bush is sustained DESPITE the prayers of millions of people. n/t

[Ilsa]

34. Oh I love that! I really shouldn't,

and I'll probably have some very ugly nightmares over it, but it is too good!

[GreenTea]

24. When you don't care about anyone else, only profits how can there be a burden?

[TheCowsCameHome]

27. .....And even more millions are praying he'll just go away.

[dysfunctional press]

29. OMG! that's SHOCKING!!!

Bush has friends????

[QuestionAll...]

30. I'm sure those prayers are all positive and supportive of the asscake...

more like, I pray to god this war criminal gets 142 life sentences.

[Old and In the Way]

31. I doubt he has real friends.

Friends would be people who would be honest and whom you'd treat as an equal. He has boatloads of sycophants, courtiers, yes-people, and general all-around suck-ups...but friends? doubtful

[Blue_In_AK]

32. Bush has friends? n/t

[Orsino]

33. Glad to know that he's fine.

His presidency has been worth something, then. Could someone get a message to him, though, and let him know that the rest of us are hurting?

[Cha]

35. I don't believe for a second

that this SOB has "friends"..more like Fiends.

"Rep Moran: "Not Only Did Bush Know Webb's Son Almost Killed-He Was Warned To Be Sensitive About It"

[judaspriestess]

37. the only friends this asshole has

are satan and fellow lizard people.

[fishnfla]

38. Send in the clowns. There has to be clowns eom

[David Zephyr]

39. Bush is a psychopath and is not effected by anything except those that challenge him.

The only thing that clicks in George W. Bush's brain is perceptions of a challenge to him. He can only pretend to know empathy as he sees it in others.

He is a psychopath.

[spanone]

40. Then Brit led a prayer service for his Commander and asked all fourteen of Faux viewers to join in.

[Sugar Smack]

41. Friends? Okie dokie.
