Bush Says Cheney Handled Issue 'Just Fine', is "SATISFIED"
Bush looked into Cheney's heart and proclaims him faultless. Well, that ends it. :eyes:
====

"I'm satisfied with the explanation he gave," Bush said tersely.

"I thought his explanation yesterday was a very strong and powerful explanation and I'm satisfied with the explanation he gave," the president said.



President Bush said Thursday he was satisfied with Vice President Dick Cheney's explanation about his shooting accident in Texas.

"I thought the vice president handled the issue just fine," the president said in his first public comments on Saturday's accident. "I thought his explanation yesterday was a powerful explanation."

Bush said it was "a deeply traumatic moment for him and obviously it was a tragic moment for Harry Whittington." He said that the shooting "profoundly affected the vice president."

Bush said Democrats are drawing "the wrong conclusion about a tragic accident" when they say it depicts the White House as overly secretive.

6. Not-So-Curious George.
If someone had some skills, we could get a nice Photoshop image of my favorite little monkey and his stupid human counterpart.

20. He just doesn't give a shit, he's too busy thinking up ways of screwing
over the working class, the poor, the elderly and infirmed to care about a 78 year old man getting SHOT IN THE FACE by his Boss. :evilgrin: He's more interested in what he can next take away from us and give too his wealthy campaign contributors. Bankrupting the Country is all he's interested in and he is doing a Heckofajob!

2. Not releasing the information until the next day and having...
it released by the ranch owner is overly secretive in my opinion.

4. He should be satisfied - Cheney tells him how to do everything anyway.
What else could he say? - he's a puppet for Cheney and the people with the real power.

11. Damn, he really must've done a lot of nose candy.
Asshat can't even string sentences together.

What kind of fool would say "explanation" three times in one sentence.

How is it possible that anyone could vote for this brain-damaged horse's ass?

:dunce: :argh:

12. Matalin & Rove told him to stress "explanation"
so he peppered his sentences with it over and over. :crazy:

14. Big, big damage control. The press people are wildly trying to plug holes
not that I feel any sympathy for them. They chose to work for this gang of crooks in the first place.

15. Yes, you can always tell what Bush's "word of the day" is
because he repeats it ad nauseam and with great emphasis, looking mightily pleased with himself in the process.

16. Yeah, probably some weird "strategery"
Swear to God, though, Bush and Cheney have always come across like total fools. No one I know, or chat with here, can figure out the attraction. Yet there are millions who applaud their own patriotism (read sycophancy), and evidently want to go have a beer with this couple of numbnuts!

Cheech and Chong make 'em look dumb as a box o' rocks. :smoke: :smoke:

off-rant.

He'd really have to be president. That's a lot of hard work.

22. I hear Norman Rose's "The Stripper" playing in the background...
Disagreement, they can shrug off. Hatred, they can take.

But ridicule drives these asshats up the wall.
