Alcoholic blackout? Bush "doesn't remember" meeting Abramoff.
WASHINGTON - Although President Bush says he doesn't recall meeting convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff, the two have reportedly turned up in photos together.

Both Washingtonian and Time magazines have reported the existence of about a half-dozen photos showing the two together.

6. That *does* explain his vigorous defense of Schiavo.
He was just trying to save one of his own.

3. Not surprising
Bush doesn't remember Kenneth "Kenny Boy" Lay, or Michael "Brownie" Brown, or Scooter "Scooter" Libby either.

Get in trouble in the Bush regime and you go from a guest of honor behind Pickles to "Ahmad who?" in a matter of weeks. Just ask Mr. Chalabi. Or is back in this week? So difficult to keep track of it all.

4. It would be funny if
one day everyone just turned on him. Quit covering for him, quit wiping the shit off his shoes and people saw him for the criminal that he is. Could that happen?

5. Multiple snack related injuries? Bike falls?
Whatever the reason his circuits aren't connecting.

9. I'd say 5-10 minutes after he's left on his own
He finds it hard to walk without being propped up (Pickles, Condi, Karl or the press).

14. I think we can call it "Implausible Deniability"
Like when he said he didn't know "Kenny Boy" Lay.

15. Occam's Razor...
This simplest explanation of a phenomenon is usually correct...

Bush is lying.
