Fraking hilarious!
That’s OK. Barney still loves him. Of course, that may change if he ever learns to read a newspaper (the dog, not the President).
Instant classic!! đ
Guy on right:
“I just threw up a little bit in my mouth.”
Congratulations for the sarcastic headline of the year!
I’m surprised they could even drum up two people to stand there and look at Dumbya. They were probably the guys who put the caviar and lobster on Air Force One.
Does anybody even care about the Chimperor-in-Chief anymore? That guy is just a bad memory.
He’s lucky he wasn’t met by a screaming mob trying to hang him for treason!
Brilliant!
This is newsworthy??
Keith Olbermann and Bill O’Reilly are cut from the same cloth, just from different ends. I wish they would both go away.
#10: And the rest of us can’t wait for Bush to do the same.
mrhappy – Gee, let me explain it for you… it’s newsworthy because the POTUS arrives in a city and no one shows up to greet him. Rather monumental I would say. It just goes to show how popular Bush is.
#11 – hhopper
Bush’s approval ratings… It’s time to start another war… always seem to bump the numbers.
Voter’s Typical Reaction to Bush: Don’t let the door hit you in your a$$ on the way out, dip-sh*t !!!
This HAS to get remixed into a rap video somewheres.
Yup. Repear the twelfth second and listen to some Lupe Fiasco or something
It reminds me of another old question about a tree falling in the forest. If the President’s helicopter lands and there are no adoring throngs to greet him, did it make a sound?
And if he’s getting that little attention, can’t we just give the Secret Service agents the day off and save a few bucks?
I think #9, mrhappy is really Mr sad. Reminds me of that old question about âWhat if they had a war and nobody came?â
This is funny.
Word is the two in the background have since disappeared :/.
Ooh, cool! Another Bush-bash at Dvorak’s blog!
Can I play too!
Okay, a couple of facts:
Adult Population of Raleigh, NC: ~220,000
Popularity of Geo. Bush: ~25%
Soooo, there are at least 55,000 folks in Raleigh who actually would profess to liking the Prez.
Oh, and #6, I look forward to the day when someone dares to call Pres. Obama a ‘Chimpereor’ or some-such.
But, turnabout is fair-play, no?
Those two guys are my new heroes. Way cooler than doing something typical like giving him the finger, they just said so much more by doing nothing. Out of all the insults that have been hurled at this tool, this one might have actually gotten to him. Cheers !
The interesting part of this video is not the guys who did not wave but the President who was mocking them with the second attempt to wave back. These actions say a lot about his personality.
>>I look forward to the day when someone dares
>>to call Pres. Obama a âChimpereorâ
>>or some-such.
Highly unlikely. Obama neither looks like a smirking chimp, nor does he gibber like one. That term will be retired after the Chimperor-in-Chief goes away.
Even dumb Americans would never elect another dimwit like that into office again.

> Even dumb Americans would
> never elect another dimwit
> like that into office again.
You inaccurately stating the situation. The question is never whether you would vote for an idiot. The question is whether you would vote for someone that is less of an idiot than their opponent. If in the future, Americans are only given the choice of the lesser of two idiots (like the last four elections), then I guarantee that America will be elect another idiot.
“Even dumb Americans would never elect another dimwit like that into office again.”
Zachary Taylor
Franklin Pierce
James Buchanan
Ulysses S. Grant
Warren G. Harding
Calvin Coolidge
Herbert Hoover
Think again.
And Dubya is direct descendent of Pierce through his mother. So the genes didn’t improve.

comment fight over this…?
It’s funny, move on ffs.
#26
The saying goes that bad presidents are as American as apple pie. Of course apple pie is Dutch, but then most americans are clueless about history.
As for Hoover:
Believed that the Recession of 29-30 would be short-lived (like Dubya)
Signed Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act
Slow to react with legislation to assist homeowners
Carried on the Reparations on Germany (even though it was worsening their collasp)
Signed the 1932 Revenue Act
Like Dubya was a Tax and Spend republican
Like Dubya banked that consumer would pull them out
Did not assist farmers until too late
Did not insist on unemployment relief, even temporarily
Hoped cash-strapped charities would take up slack (sounds like Dubya there too)
Endorsed Reconstruction Finance Corporation which only helped corporation’s avarice
Nope Hoover, despite being the the Secretary of Commerce under Harding and gave unemployment relief after WWI, was a lackluster and short-sighted president. Just like Dubya.

With those big-assed ears? He looks just like Curious George. Take off those rose-colored glasses, MM.

This would only happen if Obama or McCain were elected.
The difference between Olbermann and O’Reilly
1) O’Reilly lies
2) Olbermann doesn’t.
Oh and O’Reilly is a sexual harasser, seems to know little about history and has told WTC moms, teenaged guests, and little girls to shut up on camera. Class act, Bill.
#30
You’re kidding, right?? Both are egomaniacs who jam their biased opinions towards anyone who will listen. All this under the guise of news. Both will spew just about anything on camera just to get the ratings, as long as it lines up with their personal politics.
Just give us the news and issues objectively. Not little snippets of videos from unpublicized presidential visits. Believe me, there’s plenty of relevant, negative material out there on Bush without resorting to this.
