"Mr President, what about the high price of Hot Pockets?"
I firmly believe that the QUESTIONS asked to this walking abomination, should
be directly proportional to the intelligence he provides in his ANSWERS.

If Junior wants to clown around and act like a fumbling moron--that's fine. However,
watching a grown man answer questions about complex geo-political issues--while displaying
such a grand buffet of stupidity--is, well...painful.

His answers not only hurt my brain--they sprout mini cheese graters in my head that scourge
my synaptic gaps. My DNA is no longer in double-helix form and my mitochrondria are imploding.

We don't need to see this mental-sack-of-wet-mice--pontificate about the intricacies
of the American economy--while wildly gesticulating, snorting, squinting, smirking and
fidgeting like a weasel on acid.

It's excruciating.

Our country needs to stop showcasing this adultified child--attempting to answer big-boy questions.

Please. Just ask him about Hot Pockets. Only Hot Pockets. Do not stray from the topic of Hot Pockets.

Ever.

Does he prefers the Ham and Cheese variety over the Chicken and Broccoli?

How does he keep from scalding the roof of his mouth, when the Hot Pocket contents are like molten lava?

Hot Pockets has a healthy version called "Lean Pockets." Given the high sodium and fat content, is the
word "lean" a lie?

I'm begging. Only Hot Pocket questions.

1. Priceless
Consider stashing that one in your journal. Really.

And thank you for watching so I didn't have to. I don't have the synapses to spare.

6. Thing is, his definition of a hot pocket is probably much different than ours.
Using brain bleach now. :yoiks:

7. Ummm...you are overlooking the obvious.
George still hasn't mastered the heating of Hot Pockets. It's simply too difficult for his pickled brain to master. Therefore, some White House cook heats them up for him, cuts them into little pieces, then makes sure they are cooled off before serving them to him.

They used to put those little wood toothpick thingies in them for him, but he kept jabbing himself in the mouth with them, so they had to stop. Finger food is the best way to go for the idiot son. :rofl:

9. You must have missed the answer
Bridgett Sampson, AP White House corespondent;

"Mr President, what about the high price of Hot Pockets?"


President Bush;

"ah hey Bridgett how are ya lookin good hows your baby? Did you name it Georgia . . haha . . . not my baby. . .heh heh."

"Well of course 'Hot Pockets' 'Warm Pockets' I'll leave it to the 'guys who make up names of things' to give it the right name - maybe they should be called 'Wright Pockets' hehe."

"People, even some good people, are worried about 'Hot Pocket' availability and how much they cost. I know that you don't have to keep asking me that I like 'Hot Pockets' and have eaten several a day for years love em. And no all that 'mumbo jumbo' about super sodium diets effecting brain activity isn't worth a hill of beans, just look at me OK?"

"People are losing confidence in American 'Hot Pockets' and once people understand that having a 'Hot Pocket' is a universal value, not an American value then they will support eating 'Hot Pockets' made outside of the United States. People of Mexico send us 'Hot Pockets' and then they will start buying our Wall Street Journal. Its all win win - more 'Hot Pockets' and more Wall Street Journal. See do you see- I see I am the 'See-er-er'".

"And one more point once the Iraqis have access to 'Hot Pockets' then they will understand the UNIVERSAL value, not American value of 'Hot Pockets'. Right now through USAid through UNHCR we are providing millions of 'Hot Pockets' to the 2 million displaced persons in Iraq- that is why they are so expensive. I know that once they get used to 'Hot Pockets' those refugees are going to love their freedom to have 'Hot Pockets'."

"Anyway that's why 'Hot Pockets' are so expensive but we are giving tax incentives to companies that will build more factories in Guatamala so that we can import more 'Hot Pockets' and then get them to Iraq. See we really do know what we are doing here ah Bridget"

11. According to George... and McBush, for that matter... Hot Pockets
aren't highly priced.

Remember, they think wages have gone up and inflation has been kept at bay. x(

12. This needs to be framed.

13. My favorite part of king georgie's press conference today
was when he lambasted Congress for not doing anything to help the economic problems we are in. Problems Bush has been denying for near 2 years. I'm willing to bet that the media eats it up like the sick and addictive gruel it is.

15. Priceless
and perfect. Thanks, I needed that because I accidentally caught part of that press conference (I have not watched one on purpose for years) and it ruined my day. I feel better now, or at least as good as one can feel when their country is being run by an "adultified child--attempting to answer big-boy questions".

I am going to copy this if you do not mind so I can remind myself in the future how bad it was (it will get better won't it?).

17. The Lean Pockets are slightly healthier
But since I don't eat meat, it doesn't matter much to me. For awhile I bought the three-cheese-broccoli ones but then I realized something...

They taste like crap.
