First couple on American Idol
* and Pickles appeared last night on American Idol. It was the most disgusting kissup that they have pulled yet. Pickles called * "Darling," a term I'm certain she never uses to address the Chimp.

This clown needs to be thrown in the Hague for war crimes not cluttering up AI. He should be ashamed that AI had to beg for funds to help the poor in America that * has refused to help while spending trillions on his illegal and immoral war.


    Bush thanks 'American Idol' viewers
    Wed May 2, 7:54 AM ET

    LOS ANGELES -

    President Bush and his wife, Laura, thanked "American Idol" viewers for helping raise $70 million during last week's charity special, "Idol Gives Back."

    The money will help impoverished children living in the United States and Africa.

    "We thank 'American Idol' viewers who have shown the good heart of America," the president said, in a taped appearance. "We thank all the celebrities who participated, including Bono, and all the contestants who sang their hearts out for these children."

    He then turned to the first lady and asked: "Say Laura, you think I ought to sing something?"

    "I don't know darling, they've already seen you dance," she quipped. ...

2. So distasteful and inappropriate.
Would Jack and Jackie do such a thing?

They had class, and that's something money simply cannot buy.

What a disgrace and embarrassment George and Laura are to our country. I'm ashamed for them because they have no shame. :blush:

9. LOL
So true.

I admit I do watch that train wreck of a show. When I saw Chimpy's face, I yelled at my T.V., "GET OUT OF MY TV YOU MURDERER!"

Ugh. Must he ruin all my guilty pleasures?!

10. Yes, George W. Bush must take everything held sacred and dear
from the American people. It is his charge to keep.

14. Since they sat on their asses that first week of Katrina..they are the last
couple who should be there. But it fits with their agenda (charity for the poor not programs) so I'm not surprised they took the political opportunity. How they got on that show we'll never know. Yuk!

17. The entire thing made me sick!
AI whoring for $$

The entire thing was ridiculous! This is the first season I've watched. Never again. Leave the fund raising up to the professionals...damn FOX network WHORES!

18. Trying to take credit for something they had nothing to do
Since everyone in the country is disapproving of him, he's got to try and take credit for something he had no hand in.

20. So is this the part where george and pickles are suffering more than anyone else.
:shrug: There they go again with their "beautiful minds", pretending to care about homeless and hungry children. :eyes: Once again, the little pissant manages to make it all about him. :argh:
