Has Bush always spoken this way?

when he's reading, yes.

Nixon could at least speak in sentences.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:30 (nineteen years ago)

He's trying to rearticulate...something.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:31 (nineteen years ago)

Grr, I wish I could watch this at work.

― Beth S. (Ex Leon), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:31 (nineteen years ago)

"I see differences"

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:31 (nineteen years ago)

So is this even worse than Nixon's resignation speech?

Well, he can't say "They'll never write a book about my mother" cuz they already did

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:31 (nineteen years ago)

Ah, Lopez:

I think I get what he was saying, but I wouldn't think a reporter insane for interpreting some of the president's remarks at this presser as I-sometimes-lie-to-reporters-during-campaigns.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:31 (nineteen years ago)

Reading contest with Mr. Rove?

WHOAAAAA!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:32 (nineteen years ago)

OOOH, ROVE BLEW IT joke

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:32 (nineteen years ago)

also CNN website has finally called MT for the flathead.

(Ironically, Montana has a Flathead County, which actually was one of the counties that strongly supported Burns.)

"I was working harder on the campaign than he was."

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:32 (nineteen years ago)

Biggest laugh of the day!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:32 (nineteen years ago)

this is crazy. I almost felt bad for him at the, "do you think I'm NUTS?" moment. such an unfamiliar sensation.

― horseshoe (horseshoe), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:32 (nineteen years ago)

now he's doing a weird conspiratorial eyebrow thing

― jhoshea megafauna (scoopsnoodle), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:33 (nineteen years ago)

No, wait, I meant Nixon's farewell speech, not his resignation speech. Lawd, he RAMBLED.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:33 (nineteen years ago)

actually yes I do think he's nuts. certifiably bonkers, with a massive oedipal/daddy complex.

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:33 (nineteen years ago)

BUSH SEZ: I AM PERFECTLY CONTENT, PERFECTLY

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

Is he going all Bud Dwyer now?

― gwynywdd dwnyt fyrwr byychydd gww (donut), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

No do-overs to do.

― Ed (dali), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

Oh I can't wait for the official transcript...no, wait, they'll clean that up.

"You don't get do-overs!"

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

THIS ISN'T MY FIRST RODEO!

― researching ur life (grady), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

oh my god, he keeps saying a version of "I don't know what you're talking about with that question." he's melting down.

― horseshoe (horseshoe), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

"No question Iraq had an impact."

NO SHIT.

HAHAHAAH

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:35 (nineteen years ago)

I love how resentful he is of the reporters for doing their job. "I haven't analyzed this election as much as YOU GUYS HAVE!"

― horseshoe (horseshoe), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:35 (nineteen years ago)

The press conference better have bulletproof vests... he is sounding scary fucked.

"As far as do-overs...talk to THEM."

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:36 (nineteen years ago)

― Ed (dali), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:37 (nineteen years ago)

maybe he should "play Texas secretary of state" for the next 26 months.

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:37 (nineteen years ago)

That shit about Sugarland was so condescending -- that's at least the second time in the last hour that he has accused the American people (who managed to wipe the drool off their hands to vote for him) of being STUPID.

Pot. Kettle. etc.

I really wish I took today off work so I could watch this and dance and get drunk.

he keeps grabbing the mic stand and causing weird noises.

― Ed (dali), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:38 (nineteen years ago)

"occupying the office" is what he's done, and all occupations fail (Tim Robbins, WOTW)

FreeRepublic will be SUCH fun...

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 18:38 (nineteen years ago)

"albeit a little early in the morning...(awkward pause)...my fault, since I initiated the call."

still calling her "Congresswoman" Pelosi, it almost seemed like he struggled manfully to call her "Speaker" and couldn't quite.
