Sometimes the jokes just write themselves...
By Nicole Belle Sunday Sep 09, 2007 3:11pm
One of the folksy, "gosh durnit, that president sure is a funny feller" anecdotes in Robert Draper's new book about George W. Bush, Dead Certain, is that Dubya is a big fan of Austin Powers and in particular, the character of Dr. Evil, imitating him often along the corridors of the White House.

My favorite part? Chris Matthews asking "Why a clueless megalomaniac?"
It's just too easy with these guys.

oh, I'm sure he does such a spot-on impression too... maybe he's secretly finding out how big of suck-ups the WH staff are. "Oh, ho ho, very funny, Mr. President! Even funnier than the first 1000 times! How do you do it, sir?"
Sometimes the jokes just write themselves…
...and sometimes they get to occupy the White House.
This would be one of those times.
Mad King George looks up to Dr Evil and prays to him every night.
So Jon Stewart's impressions really are dead on.
So...he loves doing an impression from a movie that's EIGHT YEARS OLD.
Yeah, there were 2 sequels, but still...
And the first post is right - you know they're all HUGE kiss-asses.
At next year's White House Press Correspondent's Dinner, Bush is going to do another spoof video like his 2004 video mocking the search for WMDs:
"Mr. President! How much do you think the reconstruction of Iraq will cost?"
"One MILLION dollars!"
"A-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!"
Probly so good its hard to tell them apart heres a hint:
One is a sociopathic psychotic rich pampered prick .... the other is a Canadian actor...
Correction - TEN years old.
No revelations there...
Except the character Dr. Evil is capable of stringing together words in intelligible sentences. "Bush don't"
How true to life! Reminds me of the line (unfortunately I can't recall who said it) that "The problem with political jokes is they get elected."
linky not worky (WMA dl) :(

Chris should ask American People, they're the people responsible for putting him in offic...ohh...oh...he was talking about Dr. Evil. Sorry. My bad. Carry on.
r€nato @ 1:
Reminds me of the "Tiny Elvis" skit from SNL. Elvis makes the same joke over and over and his buddies have to keep laughing at it. Heres a link to it...

Well it takes one to know one.
that is asshole enough to make me think bush is kinda funny.
it's a real through the looking glass take the red pill alice in wonderland moment
I guess I will have to go to YouTube to see this.
Your link isn't working.
The difference is that Dr. Evil's approval rating is high.
Anyway, Dubya is more like Scott Evil anyway, the son who tries too hard to outdo the father...
Is anyone beginning to think that Bush and co are actually members of an elaborate political satire troupe a la the Daily Show writers who have just pulled the biggest 8-year prank on the American people in the nation's history?

What a frickin' maroon!
He should have called the final Franks plan for the Iraqi invasion "Preparation H". He needs an ass cream bath. How will we get the stench out of the white house when this moron is gone? We'll have to burn it down to cleanse it.
If only AF1 was in the shape of a Bob's Big Boy...
Can somoene please tell Draper his haircut looks like Hitler's? Who cuts his hair? Eva Braun's grandaughter? Maybe grandson!
I guess 10 years ago were Chimpy's carefree days, u know, before he became The War Preznit.
Aaaahh, nostalgia! It ain't what it usedta be.
"The guy's a goof ball."?!? WTF? He's the president of the United States for God's sake. And they think it's funny that this "goof ball" is the leader of the free world? Please help me....going into my room and curl up in a ball underneath my bed. Call when it's over.
okay, so,
bush=dr evil
clinton=austin powers
cheney=#2 (bush probably calls him that and it probably really pisses him off alot)
condi=frau farbisna
rudy=mini me
fred thompson= gold finger
mccain= scotty
gonzo=will ferel character that got burnt up in the first one
Hey, hey, Condi! Pull my finger! Heh-heh-heh!
actually, he really does talk to the press sometimes like dr evil talked to scotty.
Yeah, our president, the most powerful man in the world, likes to act like a child and watch movies that are an insult to idiots. He's just a regular old goof ball. He's a riot isn't he?
Oh wait, he's a profound embarrassment and a total imbecile.
Fox cut off the hearings for a while so we could hear what Ann, I always wear a black cocktail dress, had to say.
Well, that explains a LOT about his bald-head fetish... I am not even going down the 'shorn scrotum' road, though....*shudder*!
At least I like the movie, even at its dumbest moments, it was still smarter than the chimperor.

JudyLou @ 25:
I've seen the movie. Once was enough.
I don't know any adults that would ape Dr. Evil, except to get a laugh out of children.
I can't imagine any man his age engaging in this behavior, in any workplace I've I've been employed in. I can't imagine it in the White House at all.
Maybe at 44, I just grew up to fast? If I were to pick favorite movies, "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" and 'Contact' rate high. For silly humor, I'll go with 'Red Dwarf', though you won't see me roaming the halls pretending to be Crichton, Some work mates might accuse me of channeling Lister.
I just can't fathom his childlike emotional development, without assuming that he is borderline retarded.
Actually, Bush aspires to be Dr. Evil and doesn't realize that Austin Powers is a comedy.
Does boosh do the little teapot song for uncle dickie?
John Barringer @ 28:
Dont'cha mean suck?
As long as this buffoon is in power, I find very little to laugh at.
Making a joke about this isn't like shooting at fish in a barrel.
It's more like hunting fish in a barrel with dynamite.
Hell I'm not even going to bother.
I'll let Jon Stewert have fun with this one.
Stranger than fact
The big disgusting truth in that clip was David Gregory. He asked a few tough questions a couple years ago and made name by not accepting whiffy answers and now he's the biggest whore at NBC news. He got bought within the last year. Makes you want to puke.
I think he thought that the US President was cool for not accepting such a minimal request. Either that or he thinks it's a documentary. Fucktard.
This is one of those things that actually make me remember that Bush is a human being. I don't see the reason to heap scorn on him for this. I too like Austin Powers & Dr. Evil. It's low brow humor, sure. But fun.
The clueless megalomaniac remark is priceless, however.
I am sure for the thousands of dead Americans and hundreds of thousands of dead Iraqi's this is anything but a sick SICK Joke. Bush and Cheney Deserve to be tried for War Crimes.

This is what I'm talkin' about....... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_1e30MUsF0&mode=related&search=
It makes a lot of sense that W is much like Dr. Evil, since he happens to be essentially a CEO president working for the corporations, like Dr. Evil did for VirtuCon...As for the war in Iraq, the longer the war goes on and "fought", the more the corporations such as Halliburton, BechTel, etc. profit. It's like the Bushies and the corporations hold the world and/or the US ransom for billions and trillions of dollars.
Bush is the world's oldest towel snapping frat boy
ONE MILLION DOLLARS!
Cheney is the real Dr. Evil. Bush is his Mini Me.
Frat Boy in Chief mimics Dr. Evil in the halls of the White House. Sounds about right. Our busted budget, stretched thin military, governing incompetence, rampant cronyism, Katrina, constitution shredded, widespread corruption, millions killed and injured in a trumped up war are all just a big fraternity prank Bush has played on America.
Well, at least frat boy can get a big laugh.
Why are these so-called journalsists engaging in this utter crap? I had CNN yesterday, and all they do is flash to stories of that missing British kid. I don't care about that kid (not compared with other news that needs reporting. Sorry kid.) There are far more pressing matters to discuss. It's sickening. I give up on TV "news". (I did a long time ago, but sometimes watch and HOPE!)
The guy's a goof ball?? An idiot goof ball. I mean, I know people who were goof balls back in high school and college, then they grew up. One thing is to have a funky sense of humor, the other is to behave like a nincompoop. If I act like a goof ball in the hospital seeing my patients, I'd get fired in a minute. That "pundits" are discussing Bush's deficiencies as adorable traits is sickening.
John Barringer @ 21:
I wondered how long it would take to get to "the frickin' sharks". Thank you.
Erm...because he is a clueless megalomaniac?
Can't make this shit up.
seems an opportune time to post this image of bush & cheney that i made years ago:
http://img24.exs.cx/img24/5974/evil8.jpg
if the shoe fits.....
Would that make Chainey.....Fat Bastard.....HAAAAAAAAAAA...lol
And yet this supposed idiot still beat Stiffy McCarbonfootprint and Mr. "Can I Git Me a Huntin' License Here" in consecutive elections...oh, but I forgot, that was all voter fraud...give it up, castrati...
Bush reminds me more of the character played by Seth Green, Dr. Evil's son, who was always feeling inadequate. Dick Cheney is still the clueless megalomaniac.
What about the German woman who screams alot....who would that be.............
....too easy...tbogg quoting Mitt about just keeping his head down...it really is too easy.
Bush is more dumb and dumber. Oh were in Austria, put another shrimp on the barbie.
"With all due respect to the office of the President, but he's a goofball"
I may be in the minority in this country, but I don't want my President to be a goofball. I don't need him to be a guy people want to have a beer with either. I want a person who understands the scope of their responsibility. Who understands their time in office is short and precious and that every day counts. A serious, intelligent, hardworking dork would be great. Maybe some like Dennis Kucinich or John Edwards. Both are complete dorks and I would welcome either.

That would make him the 'love child' of Barbara Bush.
Where's the joke? His impression of Dr. Evil has been going on for eight f-ing years now.
(As an aside, I remember people doing Dr. Evil impressions several years ago. They were called high school freshmen. Could we have appointed anyone more juvenile to this office?)
Always hated those damn Austin Powers crapfests...
Che's Lounge @ 22:
"on the (w)hole, i'd say, 'Preparation H' feels good"
Actually, Karl Rove makes a better Fat Bastard because what two words better epitomize Karl Rove...i mean besides "slimy ratfucker" (and i say this as someone who recently dropped nearly 85 lbs, so i know from being fat, so don't give me any "insensitive" BS)
AR @ 65:
It's kind of apropos that people sometimes call Dubya "Chimpy" considering how much Bar (and her "beautiful mind") resembles a silver gorilla
I hoping I'm on a bad acid trip - this can't be reality, please tell me it isn't! How can be have stooped so low? Our society is functionally insane, how else can you explain this shit?
I'm trying very hard, but so far failing miserably, to imagine a Dr. Evil impersonation that weaves a retarded element into a Texas twang.
TC-14 @ 71:
One ought not use the gift of imagination to picture the physical act leading his own conception... and now YOU have gone one ill-advised step further.
No, I am not a troll, I am a satirist. People get those two mixed up sometimes.

He's not an clueless evil meglomaniac, he's a goofball. That makes me feel better.
Put a goofball together with a curveball, and then you get trouble.
I never could relate to his famous PR line, "The kind of guy you would like to have a beer with.".
In fact an uncouth jerk like George is not the type of person I'd like to have a beer with.
More like the type I'd like to get in a bar room brawl with.
Strangefate @ 66:
Oh, come on, let's not pat ourselves on the back about how mature we are. I'm in my mid-friggin' 40's and I do the occasional Dr. Evil impersonation at the office as do others I know. The REAL point is that neither I or my co-workers are the president of the United States. I think if I was president, I'd probably not exihibit the kind of behaviour I do now. I'd be smart enough to know that as president, I'm supposed to set some of example. I'd know it's not my job to be the jokester. I'd know it was my job to run the country. Then again, I'm not a spoiled rich frat boy from an aristocratic family with drug and alcohol problems like the current White House occupant.
Bush is like Dr. Evil... and he lets Bin Laden escape just as easily as Dr. Evil lets Austin Powers get away - even easier! (That is, if you believe that Bin Laden is responsible for 9/11. - I got some ocean front real estate for you in Montana if you do!)

The words joke, funny, goofy, etc... they just don't apply to Bush any more.
Bush has brought on too much deception, death and injury and so much grief to even get a chuckle out of me any more.
President George W. Bush has a good sense of humor. He is a normal human being like everyone else and there is no reason to get on his back for leading a normal life.
Has any of you see Bush's campaign videos, the ones taken on the plane etc.?
If you watch any of those videos, you will the the real George Bush that many Americans and the world does not get to see because of the Media and the standards of Presidency.
I respect George W. Bush for his good personality, humor and a visionary approach to Americans politics. Truly a president the future generations will talk about a lot and respect for this courageous actions.
God Bless George Bush and May God Bless America!
You can't blame Jr. for the way he is; he's a puppet president on the strings of a shadow government, with his OSS/CIA/Vice President/President father and friends behind the curtain, ala the Wizard of Oz. The imbecile little emperor shows that nepotism and concentration of the super-elite class has already taken over American government. "Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely."
The government has already managed to control the people by controlling the media for decades. Where they are failing is in the deception, because we now have an Internet as a medium in which people can scrutinize in a mass open forum. We are already in a transition period in which governments are already launching RATs/Trojans to catalog everyone's computer on the Internet and what's coming next will be AI bots to spam blogs and flood content and leave the individual to filter what is a human post or government endorsed comments. The age of the thought police is coming.
Ebey Soman @ 84:
Oh yeah. He's got a great sense of humor. Here's the joke he came up with after visiting a hospital ward filled with young men with limbs amputated in an army hospital:
"As you can possibly see, I have an injury myself -- not here at the hospital, but in combat with a cedar. I eventually won. The cedar gave me a little scratch. As a matter of fact, the Colonel asked if I needed first aid when she first saw me. I was able to avoid any major surgical operations here, but thanks for your compassion, Colonel." --George W. Bush, after visiting with wounded veterans from the Amputee Care Center of Brooke Army Medical Center, San Antonio, Texas, Jan. 1, 2006
And these suck-ups and sycophants continue to ascribe credibility, seriousness and gravitas to this smirking shithead ... I mean, they actually think he's presidential or something ...
It's tragedy and farce to the 10th degree. If it weren't so lethal, it'd almost be funny.
To Ebey Soman:
You're joking, right?
Yes indeed!
God Ble$$ President George W. Bush.
Where would we be without capitol punishment, holy wars and genocide.
Where would we be without Lies, Murder and deceit.
Where would we be without Corupted Politician's, Slave Labor and Death Camps
Where would we be without Money Hungry Nazi's in power and people wiping their ass with the Constitution, and violation of International Law.
God Ble$$ President George W. Bush.
May he bring death to the Islamics, the jews, the blacks, the gays the germans, the austrailians, the british, the canadaians, indians, the russians, the swiss, and the vikings,
while where at it why not kill off all life on this planet.
God Ble$$ America!
