Would you get a load of this rude, smarmy bastard whose salary we pay?

...."My job is a decision-making job. And as a result, I make a lot of decisions," the president said.

He elaborated on that point later.

"I delegate to good people. I always tell Condi Rice, `I want to remind you, Madam Secretary, who has the Ph.D. and who was the C student. And I want to remind you who the adviser is and who the president is.'

"I got a lot of Ph.D.-types and smart people around me who come into the Oval Office and say, `Mr. President, here's what's on my mind.' And I listen carefully to their advice. But having gathered the device (sic), I decide, you know, I say, `This is what we're going to do.' And it's `Yes, sir, Mr. President.' And then we get after it, implement policy."

Bush, known for his impatience when fellow leaders rattle on, acknowledged he was doing the same himself in his opening remarks.

"I'll be glad to answer some questions from you if you got any," he said. "If not, I can keep on blowing hot air until the time runs out."

Asked about global warming, he gave a lengthy account of alternative fuels.

"I'm not quite through," he said near the end. "And it's a long answer, I'm sorry. It's called filibustering." After one answer about American views of the Iraq war, Bush said sheepishly: "I think that was your question, wasn't it? The answer was so long I lost track."

He had some fun with a woman who seemed slow on the draw when Bush called on her.

"You want a little chance to collect the thoughts, you know? I mean we're talking national TV here, you know?" he said.

"I actually wrote it down so I wouldn't get flustered," the woman said.

"It didn't work," Bush said.

Bush gave an upbeat assessment of being president, despite polls showing the public overwhelmingly disapproves of the job he's doing.

"I told somebody behind stage, this has been a joyous experience being the president," Bush said. "My buddies in Texas just simply don't think I'm telling them the truth. But it is."

He forgot that he had promised a question to a woman. "When you're getting over 60, sometimes your mind slips," said Bush, who is 61.

Finally, he decided he had said enough.

"And I got to go, I hate to tell you. You're paying me too much money to be sitting here talking."

1. He's a creep.

No doubt about it. He's contemptuous of all us "little people" and that includes journalists who allegedly represent us. And congress, which also allegedly represents us.

The King is a Fink.

[flordehinojos]

5. ...but those ...

"journalists who allegedly represent us" ... well, they think they fraternize with him, or he with them.

4. Unfortunately, I've known a lot of PHd's, MDs etc who couldn't find their way out of a room!

Yes, he IS the decider...sadly. That doesn't mean he makes the right decisions!

He's an arrogant AH, who had handlers who managed to put him in a position of power. I honestly believe he will forever be known as America's worst President...surpassing Hoover! Good going George! I hope you suffer the consequences of your actions during your long and painsul retirement!

8. Corection, WE'LL be suffering the consequenses of his actions.

HE'LL be living the high life like his Dad, trotted out for a well compensated speech now and then to whoever will have him.

The man is a natural born asshole.

10. Well . . . there goes breakfast. nt

[City Lights]

11. Total freak.

I can't stand to hear his voice. I can't stand to see his face. And I'm getting to the point where I can't even stand to read his words. :puke:

Go fuck yourself, George!

[HughBeaumont]

12. Worst. Fucking. President. EVER.

A restaurant quality piece of SHIT.

If America EVER puts another Bewsh in the White House, I'm an expatriate. How can anyone LIKE this family and all the rotten things they've done to this country? How does history look kindly upon them at all?
