Bush, stripped naked

[heath7]

Remember all the fun we had reading the voice of the white house when they reported to us that Bush was an angry, overbearing asshole? Well now its official. <br><br>Check this out (courtesy of <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Washington Post, Newsweek, Time</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->, etc.):<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/linkset/2005/04/11/LI2005041100879.html" target="top">Now They Tell Us</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Amid a slew of stories this weekend about the embattled presidency and the blundering government response to the drowning of New Orleans, some journalists who are long-time observers of the White House are suddenly sharing scathing observations about President Bush that may be new to many of their readers.<br><br>Is Bush the commanding, decisive, jovial president you've been hearing about for years in so much of the mainstream press?</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Maybe not so much.<br><br>Judging from the blistering analyses in Time, Newsweek, and elsewhere these past few days, it turns out that Bush is in fact fidgety, cold and snappish in private. He yells at those who dare give him bad news and is therefore not surprisingly surrounded by an echo chamber of terrified sycophants. He is slow to comprehend concepts that don't emerge from his gut. He is uncomprehending of the speeches that he is given to read. And oh yes, one of his most significant legacies -- the immense post-Sept. 11 reorganization of the federal government which created the Homeland Security Department -- has failed a big test.</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br>Here's one more choice quote:<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>A youngish aide who is a Bush favorite described the perils of correcting the boss. 'The first time I told him he was wrong, he started yelling at me,' the aide recalled about a session during the first term. 'Then I showed him where he was wrong, and he said, "All right. I understand. Good job." He patted me on the shoulder. I went and had dry heaves in the bathroom.'</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br>Bush is a freakin' lunatic! Its about time the press started recognizing this.<br><br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=heath7>heath7</A> at: 9/12/05 4:58 pm<br></i>

hahaha... good... I hope his blind followers read that and realise he's not a hero. <br>Although, I wonder how many people clicked on your thread hoping for naked photos <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :eek --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eek.gif ALT=":eek"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

<br> I, for one, was hoping NOT to see him naked and was prepared<br>to depart at once.<br><br> As for people coming clean: they've ALWAYS known if they're "coming clean" now. That's aiding and abetting, in my book.<br><br><br> <p></p><i></i>

Funny how none of the perps seems to be concerned about the penalties for aiding & abetting. They're covered, right? <p></p><i></i>

But only if he was going to be tarred and feathered. Heh.<br><br>I really hope this article is true. I'd love to see a press not cowed by the Shrubenfuehrer and his puppetmasters. <br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.mediainfo.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1001096477">here</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>NBC's Brian Williams says the lasting legacy of Hurricane Katrina for journalists may be the end of an unusual four-year period of deference to people in power.<br><br>There were so many angry, even incredulous, questions put to Bush administration officials about the response to Katrina that the Salon Web site compiled a "Reporters Gone Wild" video clip. Tim Russert, Anderson Cooper, Ted Koppel, and Shepard Smith were among the stars.<br><br>The mute button seemingly in place since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks has been turned off.<br><br>"By dint of the fact that our country was hit we've offered a preponderance of the benefit of the doubt over the past couple of years," the "Nightly News" anchorman said. "Perhaps we've taken something off our fastball and perhaps this is the story that brings a healthy amount of cynicism back to a news media known for it."<br><br><br> <p></p><i></i>
