<p>Add this to the massaging of the German diplomat, against her will…yeah makes one proud to have such class and refinement, along with a real clue</p>

<p>This guy is such a complete creep. If he did that at a Fortune 500 he’d be fired for sexual harassment. I can not believe how embarassed I feel when I see him “in action.”</p>

4

<p>Did you see him eating with his mouth wide open, interrupting, and yes, massaging another woman? He really is a boor.</p>

5

<p>I don’t have a problem with politicians, and people in general, cussing. Everyone does it, it’s way overblown in the media.</p>

6

<p>I love Merkel’s reaction. It was like, “Ugh. I love you in public but don’t… touch me.”</p>

7

<p>To paraphrase Bush, “See, the irony is what America needs to do is get the Sunnis and the Shi’ites in Iraq to stop doing this **** and it’s over.” </p>

<p>Likewise, people who lives in areas plagued with drought just need to get together with the people who live in flood plains, and take some of that extra water off their hands.</p>

<p>'Tis a gift to be simple, Mr. President.</p>

<p>If say the Putin went over and started massaging mrs. bush, either one,can you imagine</p>

<p>its not the cussing, please we are all growed up, its the manner, the casualness, the stupditity, the disdain, that dis respect, but lets say its all about the cussing</p>

<p>WAIT a second, isn’t that profanity, and shouldn’t he be fined like a gazzion dollars by the FCC I LOVE how the conservatives are saying, well, if Howard Stern utters a profanity, he must be fined up that wazoo, if Bush does it, gee, its just cussing, so are swear words bad or not!!! Come on…</p>

<p>hows that for irony</p>

<p>firewalker, this is the “leader” of the free world, and he has no couth, to touch another woman like that without her permission and not seeing she is uncomfortable is jsut beyond icky</p>

<p>Of course we all say )*$# or something once in awhile, its the rest of it, but ofcourse the Bush supporters say, oh, it was jsut one word, no big deal, it wasn’t just one word, it was “foriegn policy” being created in a mocking way, in the middle of a war, that gets people interested</p>

<p>Good one, xiggi!</p>

<p>CGM - you may be “all growed up” but I certainly am not!!</p>

<p>On the massage - It looks like Bush just did not think, but acted on impulse. No surprise there, but how very scary for a man of his power to be subject to his impulses…</p>

12

<p>I have my own theory about Bush’s actions, chewing like that, talking about the pig over and over, the massage, but will keep it to myself</p>

<p>My point was that the Bush supporters are trying to distract the story by saying, its just the one word, why is everyone so excited? And I am saying its not just the word, its the context, the actions, the rest of the conversation that are so “interesting”</p>

<p>If Blair had gone over and given Condi a back up…hmmmmm</p>

<p>Here’s video of the conversation…</p>

15

<p>Dean goes wooAHH one time and he is branded forever, Bush is liked stoned or something, and its well, ignored…</p>

16

<p>Yep, W has breeding! ; )</p>

17

<p>Bush is an embarassment. He is the one representing us…I just can’t get over that.</p>

<p>Congratulations to all on perhaps the most sophomoric thread I’ve yet read on CC. There is a reason that most Americans don’t trust your type to run the country, and your consistently uninformed venting only reinforces the image of preening shallowness that you present to the rest of us. Keep on, Kos-kids!</p>

<p>“Groper-in-Chief”</p>

<p>Dig, thanks for bringing us back to the late 90’s. Long live the nostalgia of happier times, cleaner vocabulary, and fewer sexual faux-pas from an administration known for its unabated respect of the United Nations.</p>

<p>We need to start a new thread, titled “New titles for the Prez…”</p>

<p>btw, even though I a am Bush-Basher, I am always miffed at the press for its handling of a lot of things. By handling, I mean reporting sound bites with no level of subtlety at all.</p>

<p>Worst example: Months ago, I was watching an interview with Bush where he said that the War on Terror cannot be won in the traditional sense of war (as in one side surrenders and everyone goes home). It was an honest moment and I thought his answers to the questions were very thoughtful and insightful. The next day, the headlines read “BUSH SAYS WAR ON TERROR CANNOT BE WON.” So much for thoughtfulness and honesty.</p>

<p>Example from yesterday: “ADMINISTRATION WANTS EVACUEES TO PAY” That law has been on the books for some time (and was yesterday waived by the Administration… oops, ignoring another law, Mr. Pres???). Seriously, there’s so much to put blame on the administration for, but the press wants to digest everything into a headline that will catch people’s attention.</p>

<p>Another example from yesterday: Of all that was said in the transcript above, what did we see on the evening news? The President’s use of the phrase “stop doing this ****” (I’m in agreement with firewalker on this)</p>
