Bush Lampoons Self at Press Corp Dinner

Associated Press ^ | 4/30/2006 | Elizabeth White

[plain talk]

Colbert's bit dragged on and on and on ... He just wasn't very funny.

[patj]

OK, is the President the only one they poked fun at?

[nygoose]

Instead he's partying with them.

And with Joe Wilson and his wife, of all people.

[Joann37]

I just felt so embarassed for Colbert last night; NOTHING he said was funny, nor did it get many laughs from the audience. The video with Helen Thomas was funny at times, but because its premise was attacking the President about Iraq, it seemed hostile overall.

[Past Your Eyes]

I think so. Didn't they work together at least once?

[sirchtruth]

And with Joe Wilson and his wife, of all people.

I know, the DBM just invited these treacherous liars to rile us.

It just reaffirms who these scum are in the DBM.

[Quoting story] "Joining ABC were former Ambassador Joseph Wilson and his wife, Valerie Plame...."

They were at the table where grubs and worms were served, weren't they? That's what moles eat........

[Rome2000]

W should refuse to attend such an event, breaking this "tradition" once and for all.


This President has demonstrated that he is absoulutely clueless when it comes to dealing with his domestic enemies on the left, de facto enemy allies in that they are more effective at destroying our will to fight than some smelly one eyed subhuman towelhead camel jockey could ever hope to be.

Hard to believe that it has been less than 5 years since 9/11 and more than half of the population want us out of Iraq and Afghanistan and believe that there were no WMD.

The propaganda of the left has been unbelievably effective, they are running around with straight faces saying Iraq has nothing to do with the WOT, and people are buying into it.

The American left should be assailed by this President, its political leaders shamed and silenced and its propagandists in the press jailed .

Iran knows that the left is its biggest ally and is acting accordingly.

[lentulusgracchus]

The video with Helen Thomas was funny at times, ....

Didn't Helen Thomas come in for any ribbing for her slamming shots with a Mexican poolboy or whatever it was she was up to a few weeks ago?

[Rebelbase]

" Anna Kournikova"

Rules.......

[edpc]

OK, here.....take a quick look, then get to church.

;-)

[PAMadMax]

I didn't even get to see Ben Roethlisberger. Bummer. Die Hard Pittsburgh Steeler Fan Ping!

IT'S A 'BURGH THING!

[Bernard]

That whole list of celebrities sounded like the lineup on Hollywood Squares: "I'll take Joe Wilson to block, please."

[WorkingClassFilth]

He ought to be ordering half the SOB's in the room arrested and jailed for destroying our nations will to fight. Instead he's partying with them. Not too bright.

What you said.

Don't lend this nest of snakes an aura of friendliness and give credence to the myth of legitimate 'journalism' for these seditionist elites.

X42 dearly loved these affairs. Remember Drudge posting the lavish menus? After the final sorbet, all the ink worms wriggled up to the bent one's throne to lick and groom his carcass and clean public image. Certainly one of the more sickening displays of corruption in the last half century. Why play the charade of honoring those for whom honor has no meaning?

[BluH2o]

It was obviously ABC's plan to create news instead of reporting it by inviting Walnut Brain Wilson and Where is Waldo Plame ...

ABC is only following form, after all they hired half the Clintonistas ... Coumo, Georgia Stef, Clark, etc..

[maxter]

President Bush was the star all the way around. Class 100%. Most of the audience, as well as most of the stage personnas, reeked with self-importance. Big media inviting the likes of Joe Wilson and Valerie Plame, George Clooney, Ludicrus, etc. The media elites came but lost this battle BIGTIME. Our President comes out unscathed.

[saveliberty]

:-) I agree. He made the President look classy and brilliant, which clearly was the inverse of what he thought he was doing
