Bush Press Conf. Open Thread

It's bad enough having to watch the guy anyway. But, if you're just waking up on the West Coast, Bush is the first thing you'll on your t.v. see today.

The White House is in full spin mode. They have no clue about Iraq, just campaign slogans. The President claims he is working on "the new way forward" for Iraq. Note to the Prez: There is no new way forward, only a way out. Should be fun to watch him squirm about his comment to the Wash. Post that we're not winning in Iraq.

As soon as you hear Bush say he wants to work in a bi-partisan manner, you'll know nothing else he says is true.

If you're watching -- and even if you're not -- comment away.

Okay, his best advice: Shop more. Wasn't that his advice after 9/11, too? He's pathetic. Beyond pathetic.

Bush is throwing everything in to this speech. He's flailing.

First question is about why did you drop your confident assertion about winning in Iraq? From the answer to this question...which is going on and on and on....He really has no clue about what to do in Iraq. The enemy "can't run us out of the Middle East." Wow. He's pathetic.

Ha...he won't answer whether he'll overrule the military about the "surge." Told the reporter that's a "dangerous hypothetical." Only problem is it's not a hypothetical.

Bush just spins and spins and spins. He appears blissfully unaware that everyone knows how bad the situation he's created is. He knows he's made the right decisions. How many times can he say "extremists" today? If he keeps saying it, maybe, just maybe, we'll all think he is working hard to get them.

Mary's going to be a "fine, loving mother."

He has "angst" about leaks...except that Valerie Plame leak. No angst there.

Bush was asked if he's reflective about how he got us in to this war. So, he's giving a little history lesson about all the existing problems in the country now. Only thing is that this was all known before the war started and Bush ignored it. The sectarian violence was not unknown. It was predicted.

Bush keeps saying he's had accomplishments. He hasn't. He also thinks it is going to take awhile for history to judge him. Wrong again. It won't take long to figure out he's the worst president EVER.
