Bush Lipsynchs his ENTIRE press conference

George W. Bush made history today.

He gave the first Presidential press conference in which every single word he spoke was fed to him through his earpiece.

How do I know?

Forget the famous debate bulge photos -
we’ll never see the likes of those again. First, the White House
will never again permit a camera behind his back which might take
tell-tale photos. Second, the gadget wizards at the CIA
have come up with a far less conspicuous gadget. Third, they found
a new tailor who can hide the gadget better.

But the evidence is
nevertheless completely obvious. All you have to do is watch his face
when he’s speaking - especially his eyes.

Let me repeat my observations after Bush’s NATO press conference on February 22:

There are several speaking tics that expose
Bush when he is using his earpiece. First, he pauses between sentences
for an extra beat, which buys him time to hear the answer he is being
fed. Second, when a particular answer is different from his own train
of thought, his gaze drops down as he concentrates extra hard on the
voice within his ear. Third, he sometimes mumbles and speaks gibberish
when his brain and tongue get out of synch. Finally his answers ramble
on, going from one stray thought to another, as he "filibusters" to
consume all available time.

OK, that’s my story, and I’m sticking to it. But how can we prove that Bush was lipsynching?

First, we need a videoblogger (like the fabulous CrooksandLiars.com) to assemble all the tell-tale clips in one place.

Second,
we need professionals from several disciplines - public speaking
coaches, psychologists, linguists, etc. - to analyze the evidence
together.

Finally, we need one member of the White House Press Corps to ask Scott McClellan two simple questions:

  1. Has Bush ever been fed answers through an earpiece?
  2. Was he fed answers during his press conference on March 16?

C’mon press-titutes, you can do it! It’s time to prove that the cartoon at the top of this blog is a lie - that you’re not all a bunch of Jeff Gannons.

As Dan Rather famously advised: "Courage."

Today’s press conference performance
absolutely verifies it for me.

BUSH IS WEARING AN EARPIECE
WHICH FEEDS HIM THE ANSWERS!

Please watch how he stalls
on the questions which require
F A C T S.
He listens to the voice in his
ear before he answers

"I repeat, personal accounts do not permanently fix the solution. They make the solution more attractive for the individual worker. And that’s important for people for understand, John, and that’s why it’s very important for Congress to discuss this issue.

In terms of timetables, as quickly as possible — whatever that means."

  • With all due respect to the seriousness you are attaching to Bushtronicsgate, but would you rather have him ad lib on his own? If so, that would be an endorsement for the use of WVDs - Weapons of Verbal Destruction.

    • No. Rather I would have him knowledgeable enough, and articulate enough, and educated enough to qualify for the role of President of this great country. Then his minions would not need to employ these tactics of dishonesty.
      Now, see Bill Clinton in one of his many press conferences—or for that matter—speaking anywhere!
      Sorry! we won’t even make such a comparison.

  • He is a Chenny puppet.

    • In history there is always a record holder for every feat....in history Bush will go down as the biggest embarrassment of a president ever known. That will be his legacy.

      The German people today are trying to explain to their children, their grand children, and their great grand children, how they could all have supported Hitler without question and cheered him as he presented one lunatic speech after another for several years.

      The people of the United States will have a similar hard time explaining to future Americans how we could let Bush come to power and stay there to sdo so much damage to our country and their world.

    • The American people did NOT elect W. and we do not want him. We don’t except this Embarassement we call President! He is a moron, he can not think for himself, and doesn’t it make you feel real safe that he has his hands on the button controlling the nukes?
      Of course he is being fed the info, but the sad part is that even with the "device" on his back he was pitiful in the Debate.
