Georgie Bush bitchslapped by audience member |
"I feel like despite your rhetoric, that compassion and common sense
have been left far behind during your administraiton," Taylor said,
standing in a balcony seat and looking down at Bush on stage.
"And I would hope from time to time that you have the humility and
grace to be ashamed of yourself."

Bush Defends Eavesdropping Program
(AP) CHARLOTTE, N.C.
President Bush, told by a critic he should be ashamed of his policies,
defended the government’s secret eavesdropping program Thursday and
said he would not apologize for listening in on the phone and e-mail
conversations of Americans talking to people with suspected al-Qaida
links.
A man who identified himself as Harry Taylor rose at a forum here to
tell Bush that he’s never felt more ashamed of the leadership of his
country.
He said Bush has asserted his right to tap phone calls without a
warrant, to arrest people and hold them without charges and to revoke
a woman’s right to an abortion, among other things.

I am more than a little bit suspicious of this question. For the past few
weeks, Bush has been asked some tough questions by ONE person at each of his
public appearances.
Now -- we KNOW the people who attend these farces are hand-picked
Republicons who are admitted because they can be counted on to not embarass
the acting president.
I suspect that Karl Rove is planting one "tough" question in each audience
so GWBush can be seen as willing to accept criticism, able to handle "tough"
questions, and still get across his point that he is protecting us from the
devil.
After all -- look at this incident -- Bush was asked a "tough" question
which gave him the chance to defend his illegal wiretapping and make
himself appear as doing the tough job of keeping us safe -- the "question"
played right into his hands.
I smell a setup.

Hardly a "setup."
Bush didn't _defend_ his illegal wiretapping, he _justified_ it,
convincing nobody who's not already convinced -- and proving how
arrogant and self-righteous he really is. No Republican stooge would
have said anything close to "you should be ashamed of yourself."
Actually, I think Taylor probably lied, telling Rove that he thought
Bushy was the greatest president ever. Otherwise he never would have
been allowed near a microphone.

Bush is not intelligent enough to understand what was said.
