3. Did you notice that he rubbed his nose


at the beginning of the video?

Was he trying to tell us something about other "habits" that Bush may have returned to?

4. That was great
I saw it on Craig's show but didn't see the clip online, until now.
I have saved it to send to Bush supporters next time I get one of *those* emails. :evilgrin:

5. Are we sure that's for real?

Does that clip exist anywhere else? Has anyone claimed to have seen the live incident? It doesn't look quite right to me - like it's dubbed or slowed down or something.

Does anyone know what show this particular clip is from? I don't recognize that announcer but it looks like a comedy show, so it's very possible that the clip was faked for comedic value. I think it needs to be taken with a VERY big grain of salt. If * was that obviously snookered his handlers would never have let him speak in public.

Not that I would be surprised if he has been drinking. It's just that this particular clip doesn't look right to me.

On Edit: Fixed Spelling.

17. I agree --- it's (almost) certainly "faked".
It's also pretty funny too. But I suspect that the audio had been stretched out timewise, without lowering the pitch. I see the opposite of that frequently, so I know it can be done.

I urge all who may pass that site around, to do so with "tongue in cheek" ... ie: as you'd do with an Onion article. Otherwise, you'll not only end up with egg on your face, but you'll give the Freepers endless opportunities to ridicule the anti-Bush people.

11. Fake
slowed down, but the words are his. He sounds like one of my friends who talks like that after 2 beers- literally!

13. It's from "Late Night with Craig Ferguson"
He's on CBS after Letterman.
It is a comedy clip that is fake but still funny as hell.

7. Has that video clip been altered?
He is definately slurring. Can't get close enough to smell his breath. May be pills.

9. Looks like the clip was slowed down
His voice is much lower in pitch than normal.

10. They just slowed down the feed a little.
Wow, it sure does make him look wasted.

14. I guess that people who have Macs
must not be progressives or liberals or Democrats, since we don't get to see this.

QuickTime format, anyone? It's not rocket science.
