The President Looking Like An Idiot at November 2008 Summit

[Median Democrat]

In order to fully appreciate Barack Obama, you need only consider our past President Bush at similar international summits. Isn't it amazing that Bush was actually our President for 8 years:

9. Notice Some RW Media Types Are Denouncing Obama's Rejection of Unilateralism

First, John Bolton and his ilk are complaining about Obama's surrender of U.S. sovereignty.

Second, the corporate media is spinning Obama's diplomacy as weakness, because he seemingly listend to and accomodated other nations. Look at CNN's Zakaria piece.

2. Remember this photo from Bush's Olympic appearance?

drunk and disorderly

10. It's the series of 3 photos that really does it. Facing the camera full-on * is shit-faced.

Dear gods I am so happy Bush is out of the White House.

3. Don't forget the "Yo, Blair" incident and Angela Merkel's neck rub.

4. Votes

Well the votes went his way. Maybe not so for 2000, but yes in 2004.

supporters?

7. I'm STATING A FACT

Bush should not have won in 2000 but America revoted for him in 2004.

8. Not so fast.

Are you aware that there were election officials who went to prison in Ohio for fixing the recount?

Did you know that many of the electronic voting machines used in Ohio 2004 were later de-certified and trashed because they were found to be too insecure/easily hacked/no paper trail?

Are you aware that it was Ohio who handed the presiduncy to Dim Son?

Were you asleep in 2004?

12. It was closer in 2000 than it was in 2004, but both times the Democrats won. IMO. nt

6. Thank God we got it right. The thought of mccain and palin is

really horrible.

11. 'Nobody would shake my hand' - George W. Bush

Funny I can't imagine why.

What a horrible person Bush is. I am sure his father did fuck him up though. That is one worked over family. Just think if George hadn't come from a wealthy family. Now that is scary to imagine how his life would have turned out.

15. his mother probably had a hand in his mental instability too.

13. I had never seen that last video of Bush at the G20.

That video is remarkable. Almost every single one of the leaders he walked past appeared to avoid making eye contact with Bush. They greeted other leaders but then seemed to pretend Bush wasn't even there.

14. That last video where no one would shake his hand is amazing

The Republicans who spoke on Sunday made it seem like Bush had this whole thing in hand prior to Obama star rising. Before I reviewed those videos, I would have thought they knew exactly what they were talking about (if I forgot everything which happened prior to this year).

Why does the MSM get away with being unprepared for interviews? What Jon Stewart did to Cramer is easily reproduced in all interviews, why is it so difficult for a reporter, journalist, anchor to do that? I think the answer is because they don't care about truth and falsity. They care about what the current spin is.

16. The MSM serves its owners, GE for example.
