Bush falls off bike; nation winces

[Deleted]

Another cliche bites the dust.

If it a bit of a double standard that GWB doesn't want to be a disruption at the graduation ceremonies of his daughters but doesn't feel the same way about being a disruption for all the schools at which he has been giving speeches at their graduation ceremonies?

I guess GWB just had to prove that Kerry isn't the only presidential candidate that can fall off of a bike.

Didn't he fell off his scooter too some time last year? Man, sure has a problem with balancing things. Drinks on his forehead, mirror in his palm, scooter, budget, and now a bike. I hope soon he'll try the tight rope next.

To be fair, Bush fell off the tricycle at mile 16 of 17. That's a lot of miles.

And he finished.

But there are those who would say he shouldn't have been popping wheelies. Not me. But some.

Even though I don't like Bush, let me point out that it's easy to fall off tricycles. It's like earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, hailstorms, famine, pestilence, swarm of locusts, etc. You're at the mercy of something greater and more powerful than yourself.

Once again Kerry proves himself to be low class. Read:

He sounds a lot like the rest of you morons making fun of someone else's pain. I remember when Clinton turned his knee walking down stairs at Greg Norman's house. The poor man had to have surgery. I felt bad for him. It sucks when you get hurt. Keep in mind that can't stand Clinton as a politician.

Morons?

No. I don't think so.

C'mon L.

Fess up!

You at least smirked at Clinton's gaff and didn't feel the guilt you finally express now until after you heard he was going to need surgery!

I hear there was some initial concern about brain damage.

Insert joke here.

Morons unite!

I guess I am excluded from being a moron, since I wasn't making fun of Bush's pain. I was being serious.

[Lwood]

My apologies to all who thought that my moron comment applied to them. I should not have called you a moron. That was wrong and mean spirited. I am sorry.

I should have said: He sounds a lot like the rest of you obsequious followers making fun of someone else's pain.

[Deleted]

Obsequious? No, I don't think so.

[Deleted]

After further review, I think LWood may be right: Gorf IS an obsequious moron.

But I like to think of myself more on the lines of being oblanceolate. Metaphorically speaking, of course.

As for the War-Criminal-in-Chief, I wish him no pain and find no pleasure in his pain. I just want him tried, convicted, and locked away. Elba maybe.

Some believe Napolean died on Elba. Others believe he escaped to gay Paris where he tried to make a comeback ...except that no one believed he was Napolean. It's in the movie, The Emperor's New Clothes.
