On a day when Washington was abuzz with the news that former White House spokesperson Scott McClellan had published a tell-all memoir, President George W. Bush offered his personal reason for not reading it.

"I have no intention of reading Scott McClellan's book," Mr. Bush told reporters, "because it's a book."




jebus the man is certifiably stupid it almost sounds like it could be true :)

1. he wants his wife to read him the new James Bond book

For his part, Mr. Bush said that there was in fact a book published this week that had caught his eye: the new James Bond thrilled entitled "Devil May Care."

"Now, that book looks like it could be good," he said. "Maybe I'll have Laura read it to me."







If I were Laura, I would leave

[and-justice-for-all]

20. I think he was referring to Blues Clues...nt

[bdamomma]

31. catch the title of that James Bond thriller

"Devil May Care"

sounds appropriate for him to read that or Laura.

[Aristus]

2. Remember a few summers ago when the media were abuzz with the release of

his "summer reading list"? All of the open-mouthed surprise: "Oh, he actually DOES read!" Guess the charade is over... :eyes:

[Kutjara]

4. Yeah, and it was all Shakespeare, Proust, Sartre,...

Tennyson, Steinbeck and the rest of the intellectual A-list. Like Shrub can even spell their names.

[ColbertWatcher]

23. Camus as well. n/t

[Javaman]

38. He may read it but I doubt he understands it. nt

[angstlessk]

42. the prisoner, I am sure..he wanted to revel in the pain of a man

hung for nothing but emotions...like all the gitmo death row inmates! or was that kafka...??

[truth2power]

40. Bein' he's college educated,

he should already have read a lot of those authors.

what a load of BS... :rofl:

[ixion]

24. Yep, exactly. And I seem to remember a 'contest' he was supposedly having with turd boy

about who could read the most books. I didn't think it was true then, and assclown II just confirmed it for me.

[OnionPatch]

35. Lol! As if adults even have "summer reading lists"

I thought those were something they gave kids to keep them busy. Hmmm, if the shoe fits....

[tridim]

3. But it's a book about you!

You piece of shit.

Can you imagine not wanting to read a book about yourself?

[cynatnite]

9. There is a term, but I can't remember what it is...

A person will flip to the back to the index, find their name and just read those pages that apply to them and nothing else. Most people would at least do that.

bush...I'm not that surprised he wouldn't read it. Why read something that makes you look ignorant? He'd only read it if it was complimentary...probably gushing over him would be more like it.

[grasswire]

10. narcissist (eom)

[Nostradammit]

5. How does The Onion stay in business?

RIP satire.

[Nostradammit]

6. Oh wait - it is satire.

Long live satire!

[opihimoimoi]

7. Ya jus can't make this shit up...Bush hates to read cause of the big words

and a comprehension disorder.....he cannot unnerstan what the fuck he readin...

Its a joke??? But it could be true so much I sucked for it...LOL

[bhikkhu]

11. He hasn't read anything since he "read three Shakespeares"

Idiot.

[Flying Dream Blues]

32. Oh gawd. I remember that. He can't even lie convincingly. nt

[ccharles000]

12. Bush sucks

[struggle4progress]

13. Pickles splains th'comix t'im. Wamore ya wants?

[Wizard777]

14. Well we all saw what happened the last time Bush read a book.

So in a way I don't blame him.

[melody]

15. Andy Borowitz is a comedian. It's satire.

But the fact that for a second there we wondered, says volumes (none of which George will read).

[trusty elf]

16. Stupid and proud of it!

It never ceases to amaze me.

:wow:

[trusty elf]

17. "If I didn't read the Iraq Study Group's report,

I really don't think I'm about to read Scott McClellan's little book."

:dunce:

[BB1]

18. Me like palindromes

but not sure if that's the way to write it.

[trusty elf]

21. Me 2 !

[trusty elf]

19. Oh merde,

27. Maybe they can turn it into a puppet show for him

You know, bright colors, lots of movement...

[mmonk]

28. Yep, not as simple wording in it as My Pet Goat. Reading is hard work.

[SammyWinstonJack]

29. ROTFLMAO!

:rofl: :silly: :dunce: Funny enough to be true!

[bdamomma]

30. ignorant and arrogant POS he is

there are no more words to describe what he is. He needs his a$$ to be in a jail cell.

[Triana]

33. *resident Dumbya can't read. n/t

[spanone]

36. he didn't finish that sentence....'and i'm too fucking lazy to read a book'

[cascadiance]

37. Yea, he wants someone on his staff to make a DVD transcription of it, like they did for Katrina!

The bozo is illiterate!

[Prophet 451]

39. Well, at least he was honest this time n/t

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

41. "Them books is evil-doers" - "Look what happened last time I opened one o' them thar books"

"Right after my August, 2001 vacation, I think"

[undeterred]

43. He read "My Pet Goat"... he only reads books with pictures.

[AlCzervik]

44. Maybe they could turn it in to a cocktail and then he drink it. He sounds like

Colbert, "I don't like books!"

[uppityperson]

45. Thanks for the laugh. I love Borowitz, hard to tell if it is real sometimes, or satire.

Borowitz is satire, but barely.

[fascisthunter]

46. yuh because reading books is for sissies, right?

Maybe right wing idiots with sexual hang-ups will buy that shit, but anybody with a brain to read and comprehend what's written can tell you are a fucking phony liar trying to win support from the knuckledraggers in this country. There is nothing worse than watching a pampered wealthy party boy try to act manly and ignorant just to fool a small portion of Americans.
