Do you think it took Bush so long to appear...

before the troops because they were handpicking who would be in the audience?

[valerief]

1. No. They could just shoot whoever they didn't want there. They have no souls. nt

[Donkeykick]

2. No.

He has people going ahead of him that are taking care of that.:smoke:

9. You know bush has to feel them out for himself..

go around the room and do some back slapping.

[TomInTib]

3. I was wondering same.

Everything these guys do is so tightly choreographed, the delay was quite puzzling.

[coco77]

8. I was waiting to see it ..

even though it was going to be torture just to watch him but it began to take longer than they said and I had to go. I have heard reports about how overjoyed the troops were to see him but,with all of the things that I have heard is going on with the troops, I find it hard to believe that everyone in that audience would be that overjoyed. Either they were handpicked or they were the ones who are in the green zone and don't go on patrol. What in the hell is there to be happy about?

10. Happy to be sitting behind a desk and clapping for the Idjit.

An event like that brings out the "sweat" in the Brass. Those soldiers do what they are told or else.

I am going to send you a PM regarding this type of thing.

4. Had to pry him out of the plane and clean him up..

"...but I don't want to go to Iraq..." You think that Mr. Chickenshit went willingly? Entirely different thing sending our children over there and him having to go, even for a few hours of photo opportunities.

5. Waiting for him to sober up?

I swear I heard something about alcohol being consumed on the plane.

[Marrak]

6. They are "self-chosen" by

Bush's "jhiadism":eyes:

[StClone]

7. He took longer to show up in Nam

The Iraq war was a mistake but selling it repeatedly is never questioned only amazement at how slippery Bush is at getting in an out of places. Bravo Mr. Bush you have the making of something special.

[CatWoman]

11. they were trying to settle the question of which prop would be more appropriate

a plastic turkey, or a plastic slab of spare ribs.

[TheCowsCameHome]

12. Hard to find a bottomless pit on short notice, eh?

[StClone]

13. They used the Turkey

Thy name was Bush.

[rurallib]

14. I think someone had to tell him where he was and what he was doing

I am betting this probably wasn't the holiday weekend he had planned. I think his was coking and joking.

[HuffleClaw]

15. they probably had to coax his cowardly ass off the plane?

'but ah thought we wuz just gonna fly over like ah did fer the hurricane?'
