cnn reporting bu$h* MAY give prime-time speech tonight to goad congress to sign bailout

[spanone]

it's the iraq war resolution ALL OVER AGAIN

[BraneMatter]

1. Takes a lot of balls

to even show his face.

Al Capone couldn't hold a candle to this scumbag crook!

[JeffR]

2. Mah fellow Murkins

Can ya spare $700 billion for a poor financial system down on its luck?

God bless Murka kthanksbye.

[Vickers]

3. If he is pushing it, it must be completely and totally fucked up.

I mean, more than normal even.

[madrchsod]

4. no one is going to buy it

just stay away george ,you`ll just make things worse

[Mike Daniels]

19. Even his own party doesn't want it and apparently they told Cheney where to stick it yesterday

Of course, it will be strictly the Dems holding it back (according to W) and someone better be ready to call him on that as soon as his conference is over.

[annabanana]

23. I would have given my last ailing nickle to have been a fly on that wall.

How delicious it would have been seeing him raked over the coals by the people he's been ordering around for the past 8 years...

[SammyWinstonJack]

5. And will he pump his fist in the air, proclaiming how good this feels?

:puke: I won't watch.

[ShortnFiery]

6. If anything can wake up DEMOCRATS, the more urgent BushBots make this "Bail Out"

the more our "illustrious" democratic leaders should resist passing it now.

Are you listening Dodd, Schumer and Franks?

[Alter Ego]

16. I'm sure Barney's listening--he's been the most steadfast.

And Dodd as well--but Schumer, Pelosi and Reid lack cojones.

[ShortnFiery]

32. I've lost faith in ALL OF THEM. He's NOT paying attention to us "little people" or he'd scratch

the entire SCAM of a bail out for the upper .1%.

[Ganja Ninja]

7. Goad away Mr Chimps.

They should run a video of him dancing with the audio of his speech.

[Tarc]

8. Damn, this better not pre-empt Criminal Minds

[lpbk2713]

9. No one takes that asshole seriously any more and he knows it.

He'll just be wasting network air time.

[AngryOldDem]

10. "Trust us."

C'mon, now...have we EVER steered you wrong?"

Actually, the less visible Bush is right now I think the better off we all are.

[aquart]

11. Primetime on premiere week?

Oh, I can feel the network love.

[Sydnie]

15. And the people's love as well - don't mess with their season openers!

There will be a lot of grumbling at the water cooler tomorrow if he does that and it won't be pretty.

[spanone]

12. will he mention a 'mushroom cloud' ?????

[Solly Mack]

13. Let him. The people see him beg for money...it's HIS bailout

He won't be able to calm fears...or to curb the anger.

So let him come begging.

I want that image in people's minds.

[RagAss]

14. Freedom is on the March !

[marmar]

17. Hey *: "Va te faire foutre!"; "Que te jodan!"; "F**k you!" ......

..... Who knows how to say it in other languages?

[rurallib]

18. Maybe he will offer to throw into the first $10?

[annabanana]

20. That should just about put the last nail in the coffin for it.

This is like privatizing SS.. The more people hear, the less they like it.

[donco6]

21. Sell Your Stock NOW!

If Bush is going to speak, the market's going to tank. He lacks any ability to be a calming influence on people.

[NV Whino]

22. What if...

Georgie gave a speech and nobody came.

[shadowknows69]

24. He'll threaten to stop paying federal employees or our troops or something horrible

They might even hold a puppy hostage right on live TV.

[Neecy]

25. well, that's a good reason to turn off the tv tonight

[radfringe]

26. it's a FMD - Failures of Massive Depression n/t

[PA Democrat]

27. The Extortionist in Chief (per Naomi Klein) once again will

tell the Murkin people that we'd better do what he tells us. It worked in 2003 when his approval ratings were over 50% and he jonesing for his shock and awe spectacular. He's at what 19% now?

Hopefully people don't want to buy any more of the poisonous crap he's selling.

[alcibiades_mystery]

28. Obama will gain another 3 points in nat'l polls

Bush and the bailout are both nearly universally hated.

[spinbaby]

29. He "may" give a speech?

Does that mean he'll give a speech if they manage to sober him up by prime time?

[City Lights]

30. Bush is going to break his own previously set record for crying wolf.

:boring:

[radfringe]

31. PIEHOLE EFFECT PIEHOLE EFFECT... bwaaaahaaahaaaa

Bush may talk bailout on prime time
The President might speak to the public about the proposed $700 billion bailout on TV as early as tonight to urge skeptical senators.

--snip---

"The administration also wants to see whether the markets are stable Wednesday, with the official noting that anything the White House says on the crisis "can truly impact the markets" for better or worse - so the White House wants to be careful in deciding whether the president should deliver such a high-profile speech"

:rofl: PIEHOLE EFFECT... :rofl: White House aware of PIEHOLE effect

[Javaman]

33. Thanks for the warning...

I think I have something better to do, like stare at the ceiling for that hour.

[Raksha]

34. A lame duck with a 19% approval rating...

just what kind of "political capital" does he think he has left anyway?

[MadrasT]

35. Maybe he's going to enact NSPD-51

:shrug: Talk about screwn. :nuke:
