Bush loves "the Google"

President Bush loves "the Google"

CNBC recently did a interview with President Bush, where he was asked if he ever used Google. From his response, he seems to be a fan:


HOST: I’m curious, have you ever googled anybody? Do you use Google?

BUSH: Occasionally. One of the things I’ve used on the Google is to pull up maps. It’s very interesting to see — I’ve forgot the name of the program — but you get the satellite, and you can — like, I kinda like to look at the ranch. It remind me of where I wanna be sometimes.

You can watch the video over at ThinkProgress:

13. More likely Google Earth
you can pull up any coordinates on the planet, either by coordinate numbers or place names.

10. Read an article wrestling with the question of whether Bush was . . .
Stupid or evil.

Having read this response, I'm leaning toward stupid.

The author ultimately concluded that it didn't matter, as in "when the effects of stupidity and wickedness are indistinguishable, what's the difference?"

14. OK - on which of the tubes and internets is The Google located?
I may have to try them there maps on The Google sometime.

BTW, Al Gore was a driving force behind Google: he was on their board of directors when they first became a powerhouse.

Which of these men should be president?

The one who can't even say the name of the company or the one who's vision helped build it?

:grr:

He's getting all his information from satellite photos that are 2 YEARS OLD!

I would think that he'd have something a little more advanced to work with?

19. He's got to be spoofing
He knows damn well what the right names are, he is just doing that "I can be ignorant and still kick your ass," macho American male bullshite.

Jesus. Even five-year-olds know brand names, for crying out loud. You can't fool me, Andover boy.

But he's probably just planning which brush to cut next.
