(i.e. welcoming flowers tossed by Iraqis) you would be seeing that footage now, preceded by "I'm George Bush, and I approved this message". What pissed me off was that the ship had been delayed a day from going into its home port so the photo op could be had. The crew had been on an extended cruise and was anxious to see the loved ones left at home. The flight suit stint was plagiarized from a prior Putin flight in a fighter plane to Chechnya. Hey, it worked for a commie! Alex There are 10 kinds of people in the world: those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Post #153,654 by mmoffitt 5/4/04 9:46:51 AM Reply	Wrong. He doesn't say "approved", he says "approo". A few friends and I were discussing this the other day. We marvelled at how that could have gotten past the editors. I mean, listen close, there is no "v" in what he says. In fact, it's impossible to determine if he meant to say "approved" or "approve". And the thing is, that's all I remember about those ads, "My name is George W. Bush and ah approo this messeege." Gah, shouldn't it be a requirement that the President of the United States be able to speak English at least as well as the average four year old? bcnu, Mikem

Why, they've managed to produce not one, but TWO people who became President of the United States despite the handicap of having english as their second language! [image\|/forums/images/warning.png\|0\|This is sarcasm...] Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain. You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today. And then one day you find ten years have got behind you. No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

I've never heard a Texan do that before and I've got family (by marriage) in Texas. ;-) [Edit] Absolutely had to add the (by marriage). :-D bcnu, Mikem Edited by mmoffitt May 4, 2004, 11:01:30 AM EDT Expand All History
