Just when you were bored by Bush-isms the prez does an unscripted town hall meeting (in a heavily heavily republican district). Oh yeah. He talks about love, the longing for acceptance and... you know, chicken farmers.

Digg!

Oh my lord.. he didn't know what that guy was talking about for the sources of our military supplies???? No wonder he didn't bother to equip them well enough.

And how in the hell did ANYONE vote for this jackass???????? No, really. How could this man get elected to dog catcher being a stumbling bumbling boob like this???????

It's called the insanity defense.

"Really, we all just WERE that stupid. And the fact that we made any money at all on it, let alone the billions we did make, was just God's little miracle."

Won't be taking it with you, boys. And you've got quite a tab on the other side to worry about.

Ladies and gentlemen, it's official: The Emperor has no clothes, and damn well has been completely and utterly naked since 2000. Hope this will be a YouTube all time greatest hit for weeks.

A complete and utter breakdown in simple basic human intelligence. Uh, his intelligence. The military must have scrambled the cochlear implant transmission again, just for the hell of it. It really is something horrific to behold; must have even been more horrific for the Fox News Kool-Aid audience; just LOOK at the priceless looks on their faces.

And yet, completely adrift without his brain, the man gamely continues, like Pat Robertson and Reagan in full-blown senility, and Elvis half-asleep and wacked out of his mind on Placidyl.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have met the enemy, and he is US.

Ya see mah advice is, if you're short on a subject, get help on the sucker...even though i don't know where we spend your tax money...but i just really want to be loved, that's what all this global war bidness is about--my mommy and daddy never gave me enough attention....and in the end all that really matters about the whole mess is my personal legacy, which has been pretty obvious from the start. And God Bless America, or whatever you call it.

And we have to get this news from Iran when it's NOT being trumpeted from every MSM media outlet in Amerika when Murtha said it yesterday on "Meet The Press."

Yeah, sounds like Amerika.

Don't laugh; be horrified and angry. This fratboy decider has caused death, destruction, injury, and misery to hundreds of thousands of people who were absolutely no threat to the American homeland.

Flights of fancy into the unknown I think the correct term for this verbal garbage is disassociation.

He wants to sound careless, but comes across desperate.
I think he is suddenly realizing that he is not liked. I wonder what took so long.
His performance was really tragic in its lack of coherence.
Something is definitley wrong with this man's mind.

Sadly, I don't even think this guy is smart enough to know that many people don't believe he is even smart enough to be a chicken plucker...let alone President. Deliver us...and quickly.

Seriously...

Why is he comparing his position to someone who runs a nursery school, or a chicken factory? Is he trying to say we are children, or chickens? What's for dinner?

Can it be more obvious? This guy's some kind of loon. He needs to be a chicken plucker to learn what it means to be competent.
Impeach Bush and his v.p especially.

I'm hardly one to defend the president, but who can't be made to look like an idiot if the film is edited the way this is? It makes it look like these comments come apropos of nothing and emphasizes the most awkward parts. Let's look at the whole thing and in that context decide how silly he looks. I'm sure he'll still look pretty silly. This just seems mean spirited, and as angry as we all are about his being the one to decide things, we don't need to lower ourselves to that. Let's leave that to his fans.

Bush is such an Asshole!

It is unbelievable they let this asshole near a microphone anymore- even when he says he is going off page, and thinks he is going to be fresh and spontaneous- he shows yet even more stupidity. This embarrassing revelation stumbles about speaking incoherently sounding off the typical "Dumb Texan" routine as if anyone is still fool able- sadly there are probably people out there that will still fall for the dumb Texan approach.

Thankfully I do not know any of those idiots in my circle!

Randi Rhodes thinks Bush is on Meth. I am inclined to agree. Hitler was a big meth-head- but at least he could speak and finish a sentence!

Have none of you read "Fascist America, in 10 Easy Steps" By Naomi Wolf, Chelsea Green Publishing. Posted April 28, 2007 on Alternet?

This guy is not the clown/dummy he appears. This is another distraction to entertain us while the neocons steal our country out from under us.

Please go back and read the article. I promise it will be worth your time.

Then, return here and reread all of the comments.

Bush is clowning around, playing dumb. The people in the audience are the real horror show, enabling him to get away with this. The puppet masters are allowing Bush to do this mental masturbation because they are going to send him out to pasture soon. Now that the tide is turning somewhat, the money elites can make better use of the Democrats who will do better damage control and run better interference. Tenet and the six ex-CIA agents are another piece of their plan to prop up the rotten system with compliant or scared enablers. Just speculation but it has considerable evidence in support.
