Just list some odd facts about G.W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Condi, anyone that you think someone doesn't know.

NO BASHING!!!!!

Someone attempted to assasinate George W. Bush last year (2005).
Dick Cheney was president for a day when Bush was in the hospital back in 2002.

Link?

George Bush occasionally asks Laura to wear a niqab around the White House.

I remember those things.

The first was in Georgia, and the second was due to the imfamous pretzel.

*sighs*

Can't really say I blame them.

Condi used to be the lead dean of Rochester University. She was universally hated. Source : A friend who's now the head dean, and dean of everything other than Medical Ethics there.

Link?

Link? How could you NOT remember the pretzel? Or the assasination attempt?

No need for a link to the pretzel incident.

I remember the pretzel but strangly the assasination attempt never got much media attention over here

Where is "over here"? In the U.S?

Strangely, I don't remember the assasination attempt, even though it was last year. But, everyone rememebrs the pretzel :D

Just read State of Denial by Bob Woodward. You will learn new things about the Presidency every few pages.

Too bad I'm too poor to even afford a book that's not in the government-regulated schools :(

Fortunately your government provides libraries...

Libraries? The only local library supplies either kid books or books about history, no political books there for some reason.

Libraries? The only local library supplies either kid books or books about history, no political books there for some reason.HAve you tried asking?

I'm near-totally ignorant of how public libraries work in the US, but I'm gonna be very surprised if libraries aren't inter-connected. You should at least be able to order books from any library in your state locally.

Obviously tiny local libraries can't support several hundred thousand volumes. Such places usually stick to buying things that are popular locally.

Cheney actually thinks he's smiling when he does that creepy sneer thing with his mouth.
He also has an island full of genetically-enhanced baboons that are used as donors to replace his oft-worn out diseased organs.

How is this the first I've heard of someone trying to assasinate Bush? Strange indeed.

2 reasons.

1) Peopel don't like him, but peopel don't hate him enough to kill him.

2) Nobody's dumb enough to kill Bush because of the consequences (death penalty, total murderization by CIA, etc.).

How did I NOT know that?

Yes... the pretzel incident.

:eek:

2) Nobody's dumb enough to kill Bush because of the consequences (Cheney as president).

Fixed.

1) Peopel don't like him, but peopel don't hate him enough to kill him.
You don't have to be hated for people to try to kill you, simply having no connection whatsoever to an actress or turning someone down for an ambassadorship is enough in the US.

Fixed.

lol, that to :D

To: Fiddlebottoms

That, unfortunatly, is true in the U.S. :(

Evidently, GWB is antichrist. (www.bushisantichrist.com)

Link fixed

Those sites are kind of old.

But I'm too paranoid to click on that link.

I recommend that GWB to eat plenty pretzels! :)

I meant why is this the first time I heard about that specific assassination attempt.

But I'm too paranoid to click on that link.
It doesn't actually bring up a page (just "not found", etc), so I can only assume that it is part of a secret government plot to locate and extinguish dissent.
You'll know for sure if I should suddenly dissappear for an extended period of time.

Oops, I fixed the link

Strangely, I don't remember the assasination attempt, even though it was last year. But, everyone remembers the pretzel :D

Because Pretzel Boy, Pretzeldent, Pretzeldunce, are a group of three of at least 177 alt. names for Dershrubben Fuhrer, Il Dunce, Boy Blunder, Dimson, etc.

Whereas, none of the alt. names make any ref. to an attempted assasination
because that would be in bad taste.

I meant why is this the first time I heard about that specific assassination attempt.

Didn't really get any media attention. It was in June (I think). People don't pay attention in June.

2 reasons.

1) Peopel don't like him, but peopel don't hate him enough to kill him..).

Have to disagree there.


2) Nobody's dumb enough to kill Bush because of the consequences (death penalty, total murderization by CIA, etc.).

Well if you were a nut that wouldnt nessecarily occur to you. Plus if you were the religous type there'd be a special place in heaven for the one who took out the Dubya.....

Georgia, as in, the state?

I've never heard of it and I've lived here all my life.

Oh for Petes sake. No the Republic of Georgia. For those too lazy to actually click a link, someone tossed a granade onto the stage during a speech when Bush was traveling overseas. The granade did not explode and no-one was injured.

Didn't Laura accidentally kill her Boyfriend in a car accident when she was younger?

I have it on good authority that President Bush is in fact secretly Ernst Stavro Blofeld.

Rumsfeld was both the oldest and the youngest Secretary of Defense in US history, despite having no military background.

George W. Bush was a college cheerleader.

When the president was a child his sister died, and his parents never had a funeral for her.

He also has an island full of genetically-enhanced baboons that are used as donors to replace his oft-worn out diseased organs.

AHA!

I knew it!

Bush wears a pink thong to every press conference.

Didn't the OP ask for facts about these people and no bashing?

No one actually reads the first post do they.

Yes they do. It's just that asking this forum not to bash Bush is like asking the sun not to shine.


btw.....the pink thong comment doesnt qualify as bashing.

The first was in Georgia, and the second was due to the imfamous pretzel.

Georgia? Georgia? Home of the rednecks, solid Republican territory? The would-be Man-on-the-grassy knoll can't have been local.

Georgia is a country.

I always thought that the jibes about Americans not knowing anything about geography were jokes, seems you learn something every day.
