"Oh, Jesus FUCK!"

President Bush's trademark struggles with the finer points of public speaking were on full display Friday, when he thanked his "Austrian" hosts for inviting him to this year's "OPEC" summit.

That's our Bush.

How is that Austrian outback this time of year?

We need to put a muzzle on him every time he leaves the country. Kind of like what they did to Hannibal Lector when they put him on a plane.

Dumb doesn't begin to describe this latest outburst.

I'll channel my inner Chimpy and just refer to him as a fustercluck.

Until we kick his ass out, transport him in chains to the Hague, and place him in prison for the rest of his miserable life, the joke's on us.

Then, speech done, Bush confidently headed out _ the wrong way.

He strode away from the lectern on a path that would have sent him over a steep drop. Howard and others redirected the president to center stage, where there were steps leading down to the floor of the theater.

Gary Larson would have a great cartoon of this - it's unforgivable on the part of Howard and the others, though.

I'm with Delphyne on this one. When I first read it, I thought, "We had our chance, and they blew it for us."

He's an asshat.

kennedy, scalia and clarence MUST BE hounded forever!

Delphyne and Leslie - in Texas we'd say that boy is so stupid, he couldn't pour piss out of a boot with the instructions on the heel.

I believe the Larson cartoon would be "Midvale School for the Gifted" - the little boy tries to enter by pushing the PULL handle.

Yes, asshat indeed.

Would someone PLEASE stop giving him his nourishment? It is cruel to keep someone in a persistent vegetative state trapped in a disabled mind like that.

Yeah, I know. Bad.

In best case scenario, George would have fallen off the platform and broken his neck, Cheney would have been so ectastic at finally having uncontested power that his evil little heart would have burst. Hello, Pres. Pelosi and a whiff of sanity at last.

Thanks a lot, John Howard. If Junior nukes Tehran, I hope you're haunted the rest of your life by your "good deed."

My FAVORITE Larson cartoon...

Now I'll never be able to look at it again without thinking of the OPEC ah, erm, APEC summit.
Where fustercluck commended the Austrian military.

Raises hand: "Mr. Oglethorpe, my brain is full. May I be excused?"

It makes the 17-percenters proud. Or maybe that's "prowed."
