Bush Falls Off Segway

All politics aside, this is pretty damn funny. Sounds like it hasn't been a great vacation for the commander-in-chief.

Like Ford is known for tripping down the stairs to Air Force One, Clinton getting his leg humped by Buddy the dog and Johnny Benson (not a president) is known for crashing every week in races this by far overshadows them all.

I am a fan of President Bush...but man I hate politics. The stupid release by the democratic representative is ridiculous (and I know both parties do this type of thing). Is the President supposed to "work" 24/7? I wonder if he put out a similar release when Pres. Clinton was busy getting hummers?

All politicans pull that shit. I can't stand it when they do stuff like that

On a non-political note, doesn't this incident damage the perception of the Segway as something that anyone can operate without incident? If I'm an elderly person seeing this, I'm having some second thoughts about whether this thing is safe for me to use. Unless of course you assume that Bush is completely clumsy and uncoordinated, but then I suppose that gets back into politics...

Bush is clumsy and uncoordinated, look at the economy... heh heh.

Come on Easy. You're leaving us out to dry on this monkey scatching ass story. Make with the details.

Breaking News

Channel 23.111 is reporting that what at first was thought to be a baboon scratching its ass, is actually George Bush... more on this later.

NoMyths · 06-15-2003, 06:17 AM

hehehe

Oh, and for those who feel he deserves a vacation (myself included...heck, a really, really long one would be just fine

): my understanding is that over the next couple of weeks it's going to be less "vacation" and more "fundraising."

Damn, the chimp thing scares me! It's TOO close.

Easy Mac · 06-15-2003, 04:51 PM

Wonder if he'd contract monkeypox easier than the rest of us.

Hey, that last one looks like my friends mom

Come on guys, leave off the Bush trogging - perhaps he was chewing gum at the time
