Georgie "The Dork" Bush "plays" cricket |
Dorkiest Moment In World Sports:
Okay, one more entry for George W. Bush and then we'll move on. While
in Pakistan, Bush tried his hand at cricket.
Now, I happen to know a thing or two about the noble sport of cricket,
and take it from me - this isn't exactly how it's done:

While batting, Bush faced three deliveries from Pakistan's national
team captain Inzaman-ul-Haq - according to the BBC, "[Bush] hit two
deliveries from the crease, and was struck on the shoulder by one."

Inzaman-ul-Haq had better watch his step if he wants to avoid the fate
of Pakistan's former cricket captain Imran Khan.
The world-famous Khan, who now heads an opposition party in Pakistan,
was placed under house arrest last week for trying to organize a rally
in protest of Bush's visit.

Ah, there's nothing like the smell of freedom on the march.

Oh my FUCKING god! He looks like an even bigger dope than usual. I
didn't think that was possible. The Pakistanis must still be rolling
around laughing. I bet they genuinely feel sorry for us that we have a
leader who is this lame.

"It is fashionable to wax apocalyptic about the
threat to humanity posed by the AIDS virus, 'mad cow'
disease, and many others, but I think a case can be
made that faith is one of the world's great evils,
comparable to the smallpox virus but harder to
eradicate." -- Richard Dawkins

Australia's PM John Howard played cricket in Pakistan too. It was probably
even more embarassing...
