    Over/Under on Softball Questions to Bush?

    Is it too late to get this in...?

    They (CNN) are saying that the "news conference" is scheduled for 45min to an hour, with Bush launching a 12-minute opening statement.

    Let's see; assuming that Bush, in get-outta-there-as-fast-as-possible-before-I-say-something-else-stupid fashion, goes with a short conference, that gives just over 30 minutes for questions.

    At about two minutes a question, I'll establish the over/under for softball questions at 9.

    AND...I'll take the OVER.

    Well, I'd guess Cheney won't be there with him, so maybe they hooked him up with an earpiece to get the answers or some shock-device so that when he goes off on a Bush-ism, they will shock him. Look for pauses in his delivery.

    I say he will get three, easy to see, softballs, but he will miss on two of them. You see, they can make them easy, but that doesn't mean he will deliver.

    this should be great. Bush looks completely lost any time he gets more than seven feet from a teleprompter.

    Man, in an issue of Esquire magazine I saw at the Doctors Office yesterday, Carlson wrote a piece about his time travelling Iraq with some of those private security contracters... there is this picture of him standing next to these two beefcakes with an AK 47 in his hand... he's pretty silly looking.

    I guess we should just make this the play by play thread.

    If you smoke a fatty when Bush is on, Ashcroft will use your connection to your tv to track you down and put you in jail.

    So, if you are going to do that, wear a tin foil hat to counter the government surveillance.

    That is some weird shizzle right there. It's like he's got an electric necktie. It's vibrating. Glad to know it's not just me. Maybe I was right about the government trying to use mind control. I"m glad I have my tin foil hat.
