Bush does it again

Bush tries to make a quick exit from a press conference in China and is unable to open the door. Someone should have told him to move his foot away from the door.

We don't even have to write political comedy anymore. Just film whatever is happening.

Watch the video:

I'd like to see a comedy sketch where they show the opposite side of the door and a couple of journalists are holding it shut.

What makes it even funnier is that it came right after Bush preached to China to 'open the door to freedom.'

.

 

what exactly did bush do again? Try and open a locked door?

 

He tried to run away from another press conference.

What we need is one of those big cages like they use for those big time wrestling matches so that people can't run away and hide.

.

 

We could always cripple him. And then need an unanimous vote by those in attendance to give him back his wheelchair.

 

dont all leaders? Why is this really news worthy?

Perhaps the story about the thai PM is better. He wont answer questions because astrologically speaking, the time isnt right for him.

 

Bush is just a goof. It's not worth getting all worked up about it.

I agree, though, that there's never anything newsworthy about a Bush press conference (when he has them, that is, which is about twice a year). The only good part is when something humorous happens.

.

 

nitpicking every single thing a person does in an attempt to villify a person alienates you(the general sense) from the mainstream.

No wonder americans hate politics.

 

They dislike it because they can't get honest answers from the politicians. The politicians get peeved at the first few questions and then run away. No one will respect them when they act like that, except perhaps die-hard party loyalists.

Bush wanted to be in the bigtime as President. He should be willing to accept the big responsibilties and have real press conferences regularly.

Listen to McClellan sometime. It's a joke. They might as well not have any press conferences.

.

 

There was an era when the press was on good terms with the White House, but that was pre-Nixon. Things have never been the same since.

.

 

totally agree with cha shaggie

 

Yeah, that was very Gerald Ford -like.

 

Chevy Chase used to do the Gerald Ford thing and always trip up. He was being coached by his press secretary for his press conference and was told "Now Mr. President, when you leave this room you'll be walking down a hall. The object is to walk down it without hitting the walls on either side."

.

 

It's funny, lighten the hell up...

Why do you come here?

They don't like you at freerepublic?

 

The problem is that there is no accountability. All we get from bush is the same old thing over and over again, without anything substantitive or explanatory behind it.

There is no debate... its, look this what we gotta do, or the terrorists win.

At least with cheney he uses a variety words to paint his picture of bullshit.

I'd love to see bush stand up in front of congress for a british style question time.

 

ALL politicians should have real press conferences. Politicians shouldn't be able to choose their audience, they should be open to the public.

Look, the story is funny that the door is locked when he tried to walk out of a press conference.

BUT, this whole thread tries to 1) make it sound like its something unique to bush and 2) as if he did something stupid "bush does it again." "Bush your foot is on the door." blah blah blah.

1. the first 4 years of laughing at bush were funny, but it gets old.

2. to have fun/waste time..You?

3. I dont know what freerepublic is.


P.S. People who laugh at bush for injuring himself..what kind of sick person are you? What kind of sick culture do we have that we laugh at someone elses misfortune? If bush laughed at someone falling over you guys would crucify the guy. Oh, and if you've never fallen off a bike, you probably dont ride a bike.

 

It's called slapstick. And the world has found it hilarious for centuries....

i would say that what you're doing is equivalent to the "America...love it or leave it" argument that skip bans people for, but i dont care to see you banned.

Nah, i waste enough time on the internet. I'll stay right here.

p.s. i'll save you the whole "we had slaves for centuries and women couldnt vote for centuries" spiel..cause well its lame. Point being, just because its done doesnt make it good.

 

You're resorting to thinly veiled threats?

Look, all i'm saying is lighten up.

 

Oh poor George. So misfortunate...He's had such a hard life. You know....why don't we give him another six week paid vacation, and a set of training wheels for his troubles.

Get a sense of humor, and while your at it stop doodling "I love George" on your notebook covers - people are starting to say things.
