GREGORY: But I ask you about your internal changes and what that says about how you think things need to be changed. They have been very public, your internal changes.### PRESIDENT BUSH: Thank you for your penetrating question. Plus, I am not going to hire you, if that is what you’re suggesting.
GREGORY:I was not suggesting that.
PRESIDENT BUSH: I would, except you can’t pass the background check.
[laughter]
I wonder if President Bush was referring to this.

ZING! Sucks to be you Gregory.

that’s quite possibly the funniest thing bush has ever said… josh bolten is working wonders….

Good for him. I wished Bush would fight back more than he does and he should also pry that damn lemon out of Helen Thomas’s mouth.
Gregory and his ilk are going to shed Bush and the administration in a bad light regardless, so they have nothing to lose by poking fun at him on occasion.

He couldn’t pass the background check. He has to be brainwashed and capable of lying out of his ass.
Heres some funny moments:

Gee, Frank44, does it hurt to be that stupid? Seems like it would have to be painful.
My symoathies to your family. It appears that your mother’s abortion didn’t take. Pity.

Gregory had become nothing more than a court jester with his biased, endless and idiotic hounding of the president.
He would be an appropriate fill in for Olbermann’s show, and the left-wung slant wouldn’t lose a beat.
He was just made a fool of by the man he thinks is the dumbest person ever to hold the office. Where does that leave him in the intellectual food chain?

He couldn’t pass the background check. Every time this twit calls Imus he sounds high as a kite. Like to wake n’ bake, Dave?

Good to see the President hasn’t lost his sense of humor in the face of his abysmal approval ratings. I probably wouldn’t be as chipper if I knew that 2 out of every 3 Americans hated me.

Bush tears Gregory a new [deleted to comply with comment policy].
Ouch.

Did Bush nominate Ted Kennedy too? Oh wait, all he did was kill someone.
3:46 pm [ Quote ]
Ron Brown and Vincent Foster did not pass Clinton’s background check, although that background check was a little bit different than the one Bush was speaking of.
To be honest, is there any liberal on this site that believes Vince Foster and Ron Brown killed themselves?

This is hilarious. The vicious and whiney David Gregory, who really made a name for himself when he threw a fit because he wasn’t the first to know about Dick Cheney’s hunting accident, got zinged by the President today. As…...

What poll shows that 2 out of 3 Americans “hate” him? That’s what I thought, STFU.
and Frank44.. your stupid Daily Show video was pointless… it’s a desperate attempt to make Bush appear as a flip-flopper, like Kerry… Problem is the “contradicting” statements were made in two different worlds… pre and post-9/11.. It’s a little different than voting for and voting against, disagreeing with abortion because you believe life begins at conception (abortion=murder) but supporting the right to do it, etc. etc. etc.

I think what bugs the rats so much is that they just cant seem to get under the presidents skin like they would love to do. To GW the rats are like water off a ducks back. Every time they try to light another fire under GW he just pisses on it and leaves them holding another empty bag of rat crap.

Your seem to be making your own site irrelevant Ian, really. Not only is this totally uninteresting and irrelevant, but its a waste of time.
You’ve got to figure out how to provide unique content again, especially with Hot Air out there now.
8:49 pm [ Quote ]
Tom, why are you here if this is so uninteresting and irrelevant? You liberals are so pathetic when you come to this site to complain about how “unimportant” and “uninteresting” the stories that Ian posts are… If they are so uninteresting, go to KOS to find something more to your liking… I just don’t understand what you don’t get… Ian is one guy who’s traffic destroys that of most blogs out there, yet you come to his site and complain about the fact that his content doesn’t interest you. Think of something you find very uninteresting. For me it’s Hollywood/Celeb news. I don’t seek out blogs that focus on those topics, go in to their comments section and whine about how it’s uninteresting… Get it bonehead?
As for why this is important… The site is called Expose the Left, and has repeatedly exposed David Gregory… This is just another example of Gregory trying to “get” the President on something so stupid, and the President gave it right back to him… it’s funny.

Speaking of passing a background check….howabout this for a commercial idea. Remember the old commercials with the slogan “nobody ever says I want to be a junkie when I grow up.”?
Howabout they rerelease that with a picture of good ole’ Rush! Oooooooh, got you on that one!

Hey LtntWolfe,
Aren’t you the 12yr old who posted this comment earlier in the week?
LtntWolfe Said:
9:28 pm
I can say that I know black people well enough to comment on them (I have a black friend, and a few aquaintances [sic] who are black). I can tell you that racism isn’t nearly as bad as the bigotry against athiests [sic] by christians [sic]. I went to a republican party event once and they said the pledge of allegiance. When it got to the part about “under God,” they emphasized it verbally. I personally know what it felt like then to be a black man in the 1950’s in the deep south.
Let us not forget your OUTSTANDING poem:
I also think I can sum up the black expeience [sic] with the republicans with this poem I wrote:
Bald white man with an evil stare,
black people make a republican scare.
George Bush hires a few,
while others forced to eat beef stew.
Conservatives with their white sheets,
the african american the republican cop beats.
Tony Snow another Hitler,
Clinton was a true leader.
fin.
LOL. That’s freaking hilarious!
I can’t believe you have the gall to come back and post more stupid comments.
I’ll finish with a quote:
“Oooooooh, got you on that one!”
HA HA HA HA

PRESIDENT BUSH: I would, except you can’t pass the background check.
GREGORY:Neither could you.
11:02 pm [ Quote ]
Which background check would he flunk? The one Scooter Libby passed? Or the one Jeff “Fuckface” Gannon passed?
The slimy, oozing bag of unelected fascist pus we so wrongly call the President has outdone himself.
11:03 pm [ Quote ]
Yeah anaconda, LtntWolfe posted the brilliant, “I have a black friend” comment. He needs his rest…past his bedtime

Our President kicks so much ass. I love this guy.

BUSH DYNASTY! JEB IN ‘08!
11:15 pm [ Quote ]
Well I thought it was a great moment because David Gregory is an absolute jerk. You can almost see the steam coming out of his ears everytime he talks about the President. Of course Claire Shipman looked like she was having an orgasam everytime Clinton was on. Oh well, what will David do once January 20, 09 rolls around and he won’t have W to kick around anymore. And Frank—-to bad your mother didn’t abort you too! I know, not nice but couldn’t help myself.
11:23 pm [ Quote ]
You would think that NBC would replace Gregory, I mean, no one in the White House will take him serious, everyone who see’s or hears what whe says thinks he is a brash boorish loudmouthed ass.
The really good news is that with the cutbacks that the Liberal News companies are making, he is liable to be unemployed before too long.

Hey Dallas:
Isn’t it about time you posted some (BIG 3) Evening News ratings and compare them with the cable news ratings?

You have major problems, pal.
I suggest you volunteer for psychiatric therapy before the nice men in white coats come knocking on your door.
Bush Derangment Syndrome has taken over your life and there doesn’t appear to be a cure for it.

RatTrap (22) Very funny
Randy (24) Way to lay the smackdown on Tom – LOL, good point.
Anaconda (26) Nice expose of LtntWolfe – that was hilarious.
Ian, thanks for the clip. The look on Bush’s face when David Gregory was asking him the question was priceless – you just knew a zinger was coming. (Admittedly, Bush might have some problems passing the background check himself though…but it was still funny.) Is it time for another drink n’ dial for David Gregory?
4:10 am [ Quote ]
Makes you wonder what exactly Bush was refering too.
10:12 am [ Quote ]
As is David Gregory – one of the few non-conservative (meaning, REAL) journalists left in the corporate (conservative) news media – would want to work on the sinking Titanic known as the Bush Administration.
Why is it so many conservatives hate education? I belief being fluent in several languages is a plus, not something to be ridiculed. When did being intelligent become such a pirrah in this country? No wonder the rest of the world is kicking our butts in technology.
11:27 am [ Quote ]
Oh, yeah. . . And the NYT, Knight-Ridder and so many other papers and publishers are so conservative.
As a college educated black conservative, it’s more what you DO with the education. If you go back to that inbred, insulated echo chamber that is the educational or journalistic establishment, I(as well as other conservatives) will ridicule you- -the irony of claiming to know so much about the world without(for the most part) ACTUALLY WORKING AND LIVING IN THE REAL WORLD is too much to bear. Yay, you speak several languages. But I can say “F*** you” in English, and I’m sure you can get my point. ( In intrest of full disclosure: Actually I do have passible Latin, and can understand Spanish and French pretty well) On the other hand,if you go out into the world and make something of yourself and contribute something besides the masturbatory naval gazing that is common to the left, I at least will grant you a measure of respect.

Ian, I’m sure Bush wasn’t referring to Gregory’s being drunk, when he said he couldn’t pass the background check.
This is the 1976 Maine police document recording the arrest of George W. Bush for driving under the influence of alcohol.

You are beyond help. Go surf KOS and Huff Post for more of your moronic conspiracy theories.
You are also free to ask our nation’s most-prized Intelligence expert, Charlie Sheen, just how Bush blew up the Twin Towers as well on 9/11.
I’ve never read “Mein Kampf”, but that doesn’t mean I’m missing anything and that it’s worthwhile propaganda.
Me in Ten:
This has NOTHING to do with our government trying to prohibit Americans from further education or learning other languages and you know it. You can’t possibly be serious.
Why don’t you and your Liberal pals flee the United States and move to Mexico, Russia, Germany, France, and Spain (or any country that English is not the dominant language).
Then, re-arrange and translate each of their national anthems into English and promote and demand that each should be used as the alternate national anthems in their respective countries.
Let me know what those governments and their citizens tell you to do with your advice.

I wonder how long bush was practicing that line (knowing that gregory would be asking him SOME kind of question – which would give him a lead to make that statement).
10:47 pm [ Quote ]
Anaconda, I think Tony Blair would agree with Frank44. In fact I think most educated people who follow the news would agree with him.

Lily:
If you are trying to imply that I am not an educated man who follows the news, then you would be wrong (BA from Purdue University).
People who are “educated” aren’t exempt from being nutjobs. Just ask the “intellectual elites” like Noam Chomsky and others like him who have made careers out of anti-Americanism for over 30 years.
I also don’t think Tony Blair would agree with Frank44.
If Blair believed that was the case, he wouldn’t have committed his own British troops to the effort in Iraq in the first place.
