NRO barely saying anything. I suspect they're drinking hard.

AGGIES! AGGIES IN THE PENTAGON!

Bob gates brings respect and managerial experience.

― Ed (dali), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:11 (nineteen years ago)

This is immensely more satisfying than a Grammy thread, if not as funny.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:12 (nineteen years ago)

This guy fuckin' snorted a line before getting in front of the podium.

!?!?!!?!

Okay, I'm slackjawed.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:12 (nineteen years ago)

i fired rumsfeld cause my dad n his friends are in charge now, so can i go?

― jhoshea megafauna (scoopsnoodle), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:12 (nineteen years ago)

he sounds totally defensive, his inflection is all exasperation. He's trying to concede defeat without conceding anything (a la troop drawdowns) and can't quite figure out how to do it.

The 'staying on' response -- W. T. F.

No, he'd be displaying some degree of confidence then.

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:13 (nineteen years ago)

Bush is "assessing all the time... by myself" HAHAHAHAHA

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:13 (nineteen years ago)

there's a lot of constant assessing and assessment going on

― Ed (dali), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:13 (nineteen years ago)

― jhoshea megafauna (scoopsnoodle), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:13 (nineteen years ago)

My God...won't someone think of The Daily Show?

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:13 (nineteen years ago)

"I thought we were going to do fine yesterday... shows what I know"

― dommy p is alright WHICH IS A LOT MORE THAN I CAN SAY ABOUT A LOT OF PEOPLE (Dom, Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:13 (nineteen years ago)

"I've never met Gates. He'll make a fine DoD."

FRESH EYES!!!

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:13 (nineteen years ago)

He doesn't appear to have a clue what to say. It's really embarrassing to watch.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:14 (nineteen years ago)

The Daily Show is fucked. From the reports you guys are giving, how can the Daily Show top this?

Jon Stewart should just run this in its full length, smirk and sign off.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:15 (nineteen years ago)

SO fucked.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:15 (nineteen years ago)

Has he just admitted the Republican party lost out because they're "unethical"?

― dommy p is alright WHICH IS A LOT MORE THAN I CAN SAY ABOUT A LOT OF PEOPLE (Dom, Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:16 (nineteen years ago)

"STAY THE COURSE!" Yay!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:16 (nineteen years ago)

"My attitude was stay the course. It means do the job – er, the tactics. Er, fuck it."

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:16 (nineteen years ago)

YAY, WE ARE 'STAY THE COURSE AGAIN'

― Ed (dali), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:16 (nineteen years ago)

"My point is that while we are adjusting we will continue to adjust... we are constantly adjusting." (nb: I do this with my balls!)

― jhoshea megafauna (scoopsnoodle), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:16 (nineteen years ago)

Has Dubya been watching The Office ?

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:16 (nineteen years ago)

"Stay the course" doesn't mean "stay the course" silly, listen when I talk!

― dommy p is alright WHICH IS A LOT MORE THAN I CAN SAY ABOUT A LOT OF PEOPLE (Dom, Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:16 (nineteen years ago)

oh Jon will just rub his nipples on camera for like 10 minutes.

Stephen will probably be hiding under his desk.

― kingfish prætor (kingfish 2.0), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:16 (nineteen years ago)

the more and more people refer to it, its looking like this Baker-Hamilton Commission thing is going to be used as cover for troop withdrawals ("declare victory and run" scenario)

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:17 (nineteen years ago)

"Somehow it seeped into their conscience that my attitude was 'stay the course.'"

― BrianB (BrianB), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:17 (nineteen years ago)

anybody watching on CBS? was there just a weird audio glich, or did somebody bleep Bush?

― rems (x Jeremy), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:17 (nineteen years ago)

He's "constantly adjusting" his ah-dee-oll-oh-gee!

Wonkette:

"I also congratulated Congresswoman Pelosi.”

He said it again! No “Speaker Pelosi” from Bush.

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:18 (nineteen years ago)

That sounded like a major cock up there haha

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:18 (nineteen years ago)

Wow, his explanation about the Rumsfeld deal is deeply...strange. He's on a tear!
