Secret Fundraiser Video: Bush Says Wall St. Got Drunk, Now Hung Over
What did Bush say at Olsen Fundraiser?
The President's folks didn't let the press in, but we got some exclusive video of POTUS talking up a storm at Pete Olson's fundraiser on July 18th. Click and take a look. transcript below the video.
It is uncertain, there’s no question about it.
Wall Street got drunk, it got drunk, (it’s one of the reasons I asked you to turn off your tv cameras.) It got drunk and now it’s got a hangover. The question is how long will it sober up, and not try to do all these fancy financial instruments.
And now we got a housing issue, not in Houston, and evidently, not in Dallas, because Laura was over there trying to buy a house today. (laugher.. Crawford!)
I like Crawford, unfortunately after eight years of asking her to sacrifice, I’m now no longer the decision maker. She’ll be deciding, thanks for the suggestion! I suggest you don’t yell it out when she’s here. Later, telling her “Hey honey, we’ve been on government pay now for 14 years... so go slow!"
It’s uh.. caused me to lose my train of thought. Anyway. Read on...
If Wall St. got drunk, George Bush and the GOP were the bartenders. In most states, if a bartender feeds too much alcohol to a customer and it ends in tragedy they can be held liable. Our leadless fearer and his party should be held to the same standards, but we live in Bushworld and it will never happen. So, Pickles was house shopping in Dallas, eh? Interesting...
Update: Did Bush's Drunk remarks cause him to back down from his promised veto of the Housing bill?
Take the AOL Hot Seat Poll:
President Bush dropped his opposition Wednesday to legislation aiming to calm the chaotic housing market despite his objections to a $3.9 billion provision. The House was expected to vote on the bill Wednesday, and it could become law as early as this week.
Under the bill, the government would help struggling homeowners get new, cheaper loans and would be allowed to offer troubled mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac a cash infusion.
White House press secretary Dana Perino announced Bush's switch in a telephone conference call with reporters. "We believe this is not the time for a prolonged veto fight but we are confident the president would prevail in one," she said.

Bush Says Wall St. Got Drunk, Now he's (bush) Hung Over
ouch... video was pulled... that was incredibly quick
"wall street got drunk...."
is bush *gasp* hinting around that an unrestrained market is detrimental to not only the populace but to also the markets themselves?
video?
Well condescending chimp boy would know about getting drunk and fucking up I suppose ........
The Golem @ 3:
Just what I was thinking.
...And the WH got drunk with power and the whole country is gonna have one bad hangover by the time these thugs are finished.
Dallas' loss is Crawfords gain. Apparently he doesn't have to pretend to be a cowboy anymore.
What kind of comment is this? When the DOW was above 14,000, herr dubyah was patting himself on the back and claiming he is king, conquerer, and savior. Now that the economy has completed flushed down the toilet, herr dubyah is blaming his past drinking problems on others? Jebus....what....an....arshole.
The video is still at the abc13 link.
The quicker these yahoos get out of our county, the better!
Here's the clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXj4-PFuMLc
If Wall Street got drunk, it's because Bush supplied them with the booze. Most of the banking and investment concerns are from New York State, and while these guys were offering predatory and usurious loan packages, Bush ordered the State of New York not to enforce its consumer protection laws. Those laws, if enforced would have prevented much of the problems we are seeing today. For all we know, he did a similar action against Deleware and other states.
What a scumbag.
They had a fund raiser?

Funny, they still look too young for Folger's coffee.
Here's a link to the video.
BTW, the rumor about Pickles is that she has moved out, has filed for divorce and is demanding $20 million. Grounds: an abusive alcoholic.
isn't it nice to see the "haves and the have mores" yucking it up. why is evryone elses suffering so funny to this man and his supporters.
the viseo can be seen at http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/25811157#25811157
it is also very nice to see david gregory and what's her name find it amusing as well.
The man is a laugh riot.

It's marked as 'private'.
Message control seems to be the repub motto for the week, isn't working, but they are giving it a good try in a fiasco kid of way. Good thing that there is a hurricane hitting the Texas coast or else the MSM might have to talk about these things instead.
I just don't think I can read one more article about yet another dumya and company crime and how they're all going to walk away laughing with money falling out of their pockets when their term is up... if it ever actually ends.
I get it. They're evil, they're greedy and they always win. You know what we need? A second political party! A group that would provide some kind of checks and balances and make them all accountable. Hey I know it sounds crazy but I can dream can't I?
Paul @ 16:
So, she is looking for a house for herself, maybe? And W and Condi get to keep the "ranch"?
Being from Dallas, I'd say Crawford's what boosh deserves

Bush and Cheney are drinking buddies with Wall Street! They all got drunk together!

Finally George Bush speaks up on something he knows about, getting drunk and having a hangover. If only we could sleep off the last six mounths of his term.
I guess the pretend cowboy is ready to ride into the sunset and leave the ranch behind. I'm not sure what he means about wall street getting drunk. What they got was criminal and he sat there and watched it happen.
Does anyone have a copy or a link to one ? You tube better get out of the politics business if they caused its removal!
Time for some nice harsh freedom of speech legislation to give US access to every piece of information available.
We need the ability as citizens to spy on all politicians and businessman. They exist because of our good graces.
Sorry, I could not bring myself to watch a video of that blathering sociopathic idiot.
I'm reasonably certain that he is either lying, shifting blame or making no sense whatsoever. If he actually decides to step down in January, he will go home to Texass and live untroubled off of his war and oil profits. End of story. You know that this is true.
"Wall Street got drunk...." takes one to know one....as they say!
Embittered & Anti-Republicrat - Max-Hussein-1 @ 27:
That's one of the best yet!
maybe i'm losing my sense of humor. i'm fxxking sick
and tired of this guy....i didn't vote for him and i have never trusted him....to me the secrecy issue made me
suspicious. i just don't respect this guy......people want to
blame the congress...there some blame there....this is the guy to blame....bush is the one who has vetoed the
congress wanting to get out of iraq during the last 18 months.
What a card. What a maroon.
That Chimpy sure knows how to bring down the house. I'd sure love to have a beer with him!
I didn't know Blackwater had a compound in Dallas.
Embittered & Anti-Republicrat - Max-Hussein-1 @ 24:
Hell yes, Wall Street always brings a shitload of blow to the party!
Sweet jebus on crack, I hate that man.
Um...go slow? On government pay? The man made almost a million dollars last year and he's already worth millions. Sorry for her sacrifice the past 14 years...at least now that George has given up golf they are both on par.
If Wall Street is drunk, Bush is on crack.
"Wall St. got drunk" is not such a big scandalous comment.
What struck me is how he whines about wifey looking for a house. It got a laugh, but how pathetic can you get?
Reading between the lines, I wonder if Bush's investment portfolio has taken a bath. Why else would he give a shit about the financial markets? And why would he joke about not being able to afford a new house? He made $15 million from his share of the Texas Rangers. That was 10 years ago, so he should have at least doubled it by now if the money was invested conservatively. Or maybe Bush has taken a bath along with millions of other investors.
Might be why he talks about the need to "replenish the old coffers" after he leaves office.
Wall Street got drunk, it got drunk, (it’s one of the reasons I asked you to turn off your tv cameras.) It got drunk and now it’s got a hangover. The question is how long will it sober up, and not try to do all these fancy financial instruments.
"how long will it [take to] sober up"...
this is code for 'let the market work this out by themselves'... and it is a bald-faced lie, as we pay for their failure.
the govt has socialized the losses--that we, as taxpayers, have to pay for, despite the majority of us that have NOTHING to do with this travesty. the old cliche 'privatize the profits and socialize the risk' has never been more true.
it is funny to watch the market fundies scamper like roaches when their (il)logic is thrown back in their faces. if they held true to their view that the market is all-knowing and all-powerful, then they would advocate letting bear stearns, freddie/fannie, etc. fail, and suffer the consequence--as they knew the risks, they tried to profit, and they got burnt.
instead, they advocate a govt bailout.
ah, sweet, sweet hypocrisy.

What a frikkin' wordsmith this guy is.
Typical: The Chimpster doesn't have the guts to face the music and tell the American public how bad things really are. But hey -- let's get in a room with a bunch of Republican Die-Hards, turn those pesky cameras off and let's have a big ol' chuckle as to how bad things are screwed up.
#15: I followed your link to the original broadcast and there are a lot of Bushbots in the comments section boo-hooing about how the person who shot the video had violated the President's right to privacy, as though he hadn't just spent the past several years doing just that to the electorate. I love the smell of hypocricy in the morning.

Even worse booshco will jump through hoops to rescue the hedge funds and real-estate companies who made bad loans and to the poor screwed-over homeowner, "Tough, you need to learn to be accountable."

While i am not fan of this administration. I can see what Bush is saying. Just like the Dot.com bubble during the Clinton era when wall st. got drunk on hyped up IPOs, the same thing happened here with mortgages.
The basic human nature is greed, and that has been shown by the wall street people over and over again...and by some of us who have invested in the stock market.
Having said the above, let me go douse myself with lysol for having agreed with this administration...I'll make sure and cover my privates so that it dies not shrivel and disappear!

Well the people who voted for boosh as someone they'd like to have a drink with.
But why anyone would want to have drinks with a self-righteous recovering drunk is beyond me.
these people declare their income as capital gains...taxed at 15%
that's why wall street is starting to lean toward mcBush
jim webb was on charlie rose monday(i recommend the interview)
he says we need a sliding scale 15%-30%
How completely pathetic our President of the United States george w bush "represents" our country and values. This worthless individual is blaming the same people who have "financed" and promoted his mis-Presidency to this day. All the tax breaks and lack of oversight that has caused this mess is now the responsibility is passed off to us! Someone's gotta pay! Right! Just not those individually and collectively responsible. BWTF do I know.

I think Pickles would do nicely in Plano, Frisco or maybe somewhere around Whiterock Lake.
I spent last weekend in Frisco and saw no signs of economic downturn, if anything, I saw people spending money like it's going out of style - heavy on the SUVs and heavy on the GOP bumper stickers, but that's Frisco for ya.
ps: please don't post pics of my mother here
bateman @ 65:
Frisco used to have the most beautiful farms.
But as someone once told me, "We have to get rid of th farms and build suburbs, because developers gotta eat too."
It is interesting to note that George doesn't tell people what he thinks is the truth unless they pay him. This video shows why his trick only works once on any given individual.
Seems like the original video is gone. I re-uploaded it:

Impeachment takes courage.
Not going to happen.

Yeah, it's okay for him to spy on us private citizens but it's not okay to record a public citizen.
The video is on BBC
When Bush is talking about drunk people he sure knows what he is talking about...

Here's the video. Looks like the censurs haven't gotten them all yet:

Alan Graham @ 40:
1. If they paid him by the HOUR like MOST government workers, he'd starve. If they were paying him by piece-rate, and the number of successful jobs completed, he'd starve FASTER.
2. I think he was referring to Obama's first Executive Order that no former member of the executive branch can work as a lobbyist for K Street for a period of five years. THAT SUCKS! It means Grover and the oil companies will have to find some OTHER indirect way to pay him off. I believe the arrangement was a 10% kickback from the oil companies that he and Cheney get to split down the middle. That means they were each supposed to get about 300 million in 'consulting fees' from the oil lobby once they've pissed off back to Texas (Bush) and Dubai (Cheney). 'Consulting fees' for K Street lobbyists can easily get that high, but it's going to be awfully difficult to pay them THAT much for a chair at The Heritage Foundation, or speaking tours with the fortune 500.
3. The best Bush youtube video is, and always will be the one where he's at that tuxedo fundraiser saying "Here I am among the haves and the have-mores. Some people call you the ELITE! I call you MY BASE! yuk yuk..." I don't know why those IMBECILES the Democrats didn't just run that video over and over again as a campaign add in 2004. If they had, we'd be discussing President Kerry's run for a second term.

Well, George W. Bush is an idiot who doesn't know spit about anything important... wouldn't know the truth if it bit him on the ass either... .But I'll have to concede this much... Fucker probably knows a drunk when he sees one....
Of course offering a reasonable solution to any of this mess is waay the hell beyond his capacity. And this guy is suppose to be a big brain college boy. Makes the Ivy League look pretty bad if you ask me..............JD
And Bush was going to give Social Security to those drunk Wall Street bastards. Can you imagine what would have happened had Wall Street invested it all in housing?
George Bush is Lloyd the bar tender from the Shining, only dumber.
Someone should sit Bush (and others in the Administration) and make them watch Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister. even Jium Hacker is smarter than mr Bush on media matters. There was an epsoide during the Yes Prime Minister series when the head of the public service got caught in a embarrassing radio "live mike" situation critising the government - when Hacker found out (outside of being furious) uttered a critical truism of politics "always - ALWAYS - assume there will be a live microphone when doing any sort of media interview".
There it is, straight from the mouth of the dry drunk, leader of the free world.
He oughta know drunk.
Pericles @ 80:
Ahhh. So there is no difference. The Bushies get off either way. Thanks for clearing that up.
Bush Sr bought several hundred acres of property in Paraguay recently....you know, where all dictators on the run go to rot......and there's little doubt in my mind that's where he'll end up......assuming he somehow avoids capture and a war crimes trial next year.

Though at least he does point out all the way though that it was greed that brought it down, i.e. the american dream of be as rich as possiable and F over everybody else.
Getting drunk and being hung over is about the only thing Bush is knowledgable about. The rest of the time he is talking out of his ass.
I'm sure he's jonesing for a drink (or some coke); the drinking analogy is very telling.
I think we'd all be better off if Bush left the White House and crawled back into the bottle.
Bush believes a little joke can make everything all better, as in where are those WMDs. What an ass.

Bush certainly did make Wall Street drunk by supplying the booze and enabling unlimited wealth to his billionaire corporate cronies safeguarding them from any oversight. It's sad how this country has been rewarding wealth more than hard work over the past 8 years. The only way wealth should be rewarded is by saving money and earning interest! There should certainly be more breadth of wealth to hard working American people than that of the depth of wealth to a few billionaire corporate cronies.

this is all a total crack up. at least he's funny...
Bush could you just shut the hell up for the next 6 months I dont need to hear your BS anymore. Just leave it as it is and let someone else step up anbd take care of the american people rather then themselves. Your are the new age hitler I wish your family would lose there home and live in a damn apartment I hate you and you have become the worst President IN HISTORY and will always been know to my child as the AHOTC THE ASS HOLE OF THE CENTURY
"Ya see Wall street was snortin' coke, hee,hee,hee,... and now they have to go into rehab hee,hee,hee, and then maybe they can be president hee,hee,hee...
It probably didn't take all that much liquor to get the weenies of wall streeet drunk, sniffing the cork was probably sufficient.
That's one thing Smirky The Chimp is well versed on, Being Drunk and hangovers. He's been drunk for 8 yrs.
he spoke the truth and everyone gets upset, bush is not the blame for everything, if you notice cramp like this happens, when its election year, clinton, should be blamed for a big mess he left behind, things he kept quiet. Think about it people and wake up, it may be worse with the next president, so be careful
Bush wants to point fingers and talk shit when he should be doing something to help America get back in shape. What grinds my gears is he has 5 months left of office and he wants to go to baseball games and throw babseballs while the country is going down in flames.
W is a lying, hypocritical, sexist, racist, myopic antisemitic homophobe and is an advocate of the Republican motto - "I'VE GOT MINE - SCREW YOU."
What a bunch of whiners. Yeah, everything is Bush's fault......NOT! Where was Congress in all this mess, sitting around with their thumb up their ***? Where are those legislators responsible for setting banking rules? Were they unconscious? New rules need to be set in place NOW to prevent banks from making no money down mortgages in the future, or once this housing crisis passes they will be at it again. An estimated 70% of subprime mortgages will be UNABLE to be paid back, according to one report I read recently. This is the fault of the banks who were greedy, the borrowers who were stupid, and the congress for being on taxpayer funded junkets and doing nothing while it all happened. Blame Bush if you want but you are only kidding yourself.
hot mail
Not only was Bush the bartender, He spiked the drinks. It's time to stop Wall Street from running and Ruining this country. To add insult to injury, we have to turn around and bail them out. Obama stands the best chance of taking back the country from corporate America.
This housing bill will do very little to help the people who are currently in sub-prime mortgages. The large majority of these people got these mortgages with little to no money down and with prices falling have negative equity. In addition, most of people obtained these loans using the no-income or stated income programs which no longer exist unless some one has at least a 75% LTV (25% equity), can verify income, and have at least a 700 credit score. We aren't even close to rock bottom and I know many good people hanging on threads. Another wave of forclosures and bankruptcies are coming.The goverment is totally out of touch with reality. I'm out on the street everyday and have the pulse of the people. Its just propaganda. Wall street who created the secondary market for these products to be sold are the real crooks. They walked away with their million dollar bonus's. The goverment is bailing out multi millionaires. What a joke this country has become. $4.00 plus galloon gas prices and the cost of food is through the roof. I'm done.
Bush deregulated everything and since CEOs have no morals they got drunk as Bush puts it. The outcome was not unexpected and our economy and the people are paying for the Bush stupidity and greed.
For Gods sake, when will you people finally wake up and realize we can't blame every problem on the President, No matter whom it is at the time of the problems. It's just possible in some cases, it may be your own Mother and Fathers, Aunts, Uncles, Friends, All relatives, distant relatives with money that are driving the price of the oil stocks up on speculation. Hell, it may even be some of you with money helping to do it. Every time you turn around someone is blaming the President for all the problems no matter who it may be at the time. Grow up you bunch of whiners and see wher the problem realy lies. It's the people who bu the stocks you idiots.
Am I the only one who is totally embarrassed by the fact that this incompetent moron can't string two coherent sentences together?......
GEORGE BUSH IS A GOD DAMN! MOTHER FUCKING ASS,
(which im sure that most of the world would agree)
Where is that Iraqi oil people??????? The second largest oil reserve in the world.
He's the President and he doesn't know the meaning of the word "uncertain"?
STEVE BRENNAN - The Republican solution to EVERYTHING is to deregulate, privatize, and to never enforce antitrust laws. Their selling tools to induce voters to go along - "lower taxes" and "less government." The result - graft, fraud, corruption in business. The result for consumers - higher costs for basic services and lost assets with no recourse for recoupment. Lower taxes - a decaying infrastructure. Less government - despite the fact that the population is GROWING - fewer services - including a smaller Department of Immigration for all you "bus them back to Mexico" people.
Three years ago they were giving away $100,000 tax credits towards the purchase of SUVs. Then he scolds us for being addicted to oil
Tax breaks for the wealthiest....The only thing trickling down is the pain of the GWB policies
Policy of hands off business.....no regulations let the crooks do as they please with no consequences
Disastrous Iraq War....Now after all that spilled blood they want us to leave without as much as a "we appreciate your sacrifice", or "how about a little oil to show our appreciation"
These idiots spent us into a fake recovery, now we only have Billions in debt to show for it
8 years of no growth stock market kills off the hopes of retirement for millions approaching retirement age.....Only government and municipality workers are assured a retirement these days, because the local and federal governments are the fake America where taxes and tax creative tax increases pay for everybody's perks...not real revenue generated from a business model
What A Mess!
Paul @ 13:
Agreed, and a president should NEVER use the word "Fancy" to describe anything unless it's the First Lady's dress.
This, from someone who has his MBA from Harvard? Is that how he
was taught how to analyze the market? If so, I am glad I am a Cornellian...
The democrat soulation is to tax everybody to death. We would not be short of oil if the dems wouild have let us drill 10 years ago.
Don't you realize that most of the investment bankers who structured the financial instruments that brought on the subprime market debacle are DEMOCRATS? Aside from that, markets typically get overheated and then have major corrections, such as the dotcom bubble during the Clinton administration. Were BJ and his Pickle to blame for that?
Somebody is responsible for unethical lending practices. I would put it at the feet of the greedy big bankers, not Bush.
THE MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX DRUNKEN ORGY
The Nit Wit Bush for once in his entire life has made one true statement, that under his criminal administration The Military Industrial Complex has been on a drunken orgy of power, greed, and corruption which has never been seen before to this degree in the history of mankind.
This country is Trillions of dollars in debt to the Peoples Republic of Red China, Millions of Americans have lost their homes, joining millions of other Americans filing for bankruptcy protection as the Military Industrial Complex seeks to limit if not eliminate that protection.
This country and its people are paying in both blood and treasure for a Bush War of Choice, and not the choice of the People but of the elected representatives of the People who sold out to the Military Industrial Complex. Paying for Blackwater Inc. Criminal Mercenary’s to establish a British style US Middle East Halliburton Company, making its profits in Blood for Oil!
And, just how long will this Military Industrial Complex Drunken Orgy of Blood for Oil, Imperial Presidential Power with out limit, where the Chief Law Enforcement Office is a Criminal were the Fox is running the Chicken House? As all Drunken Orgies End, when there is nothing left, and someone else has to come in a clean up the mess.
Will the Military Industrial Complex Drunken Orgy come to an end after the Bush Criminal Administration, NO.? There are NO TWO PARTIES IN (D.C.), there is just one the Military Industrial Complex Party with two sides the Democratic and Republican, the Left and Right side of the Military Industrial Complex Party. And, neither of the Prospective IMPERIAL PRESIDENCIAL candidates, has any intention of bringing to justice the criminal Bush or any of his administration. Why would one Imperial Military Industrial Complex President with unlimited power bring to justice another?
Don’t ask for whome the bell tolls, it tolls for us, we sat silent as we became a government of the Military Industrial Complex, by the Military Industrial Complex and for the Military Industrial Complex, with an unlimited and unaccountable Imperial Criminal Presidency.
I am a Republican because not every one can be on welfare!
He is without a doubt the most incompetent president in the history of the United States. America may not have elected him in 2000 (his brother Jeb pulled that one off), but they did in 2004. How he was "re-elected" is beyond me. Congratulations to all you idiots that voted for him. We now have a financial system on the verge of collapse and will be in a depression soon that will make the 1930's look like the good old days. God Bless what is left of America after 8 years of "Dubya the Clown".
Least we not forget what W wanted to do with our Social Security money and it was with the DRUNKS ON WALL STREET

what do you expect from a jackass, now people are paying 500.00 dollars just to see him in beautiful pissoria (peoria) illinois and if you have 5000.00 dollars just laying around you can get a photo of the jackass and shick dick (schoch) who is running for cogress
So sick of the wind blowing and it getting blamed on Bush and Republicans....if I recall correctly, the economy started going to pot when the Dems (whiners) took over Congress! How short our memories are! We are all in this mess now and finger pointing no longer works (for those of us who realize we are grownups not on the playground anymore anyway!)...If our government would only grow up and work for the good of the people instead of worrying which party is going to get credit for doing something good and blocking everything, we would all be a lot better off~!
Congress was the Bartender here encouraging the Markets to be bold and to take risks and this is where we are.
J R @ 140:
Nice of you to bring up whiners ("So sick of the wind blowing and it getting blamed on Bush and Republicans..." whining) and grownups not on the playground anymore who don't point fingers ("...if I recall correctly, the economy started going to pot when the Dems (whiners) took over Congress..." finger pointing) throughout your whining finger-pointing comment.
And you know nothing of economics either. Borrowing to spend is no way to balance the books. That's the Thug way, the way Bush and the Thugs have done it since 2000. Bush came into office on a budget surplus, which he's pissed away many times over. Which is why your great grand children will be paying the Chinese 50-60 years from now and beyond.
The best part of "GOOD 'OL DUBYA" ran down his daddys leg....what an embarrasment. This Dick Head is supposed to be the leader of the free world representing the greatest nation on earth!
George Bush isn't a Christian to make fun of poor people ! Maybe that's why he got so many U.S. troops killed !
Perhaps we should take his pensions away. Many of us have lost ours or made very little on the 401k plans
Bush has been a mediocre president. That being said, his critics alternately try to convince us he's both an evil genius and a stumbling buffoon. Reality check. He's neither. His harshest critics, the snidely elitist extreme left of the Democrat party (ie...DailyKos, moveon.org, etc...), want to impose a largely socialist political agenda on the USA. Beware of them, not Bush.
Bush bartended and Rove scraped up the lines to snort with Cheney's rolled up Benjamin! And Condi lit the bong. These people needed a serious rehab intervention 6 years ago, not a fake Jesus conversion!
And if there is a Heaven, please God keep George W. Bush out of there !
Bush*t, his family, and his cronies make my skin crawl. Worldwide, Bush (and McCain) is the most despised person alive. I'd derive great satisfaction from spitting on his grave, and having my three dogs pee on him.
George Bush an evil genius ? What a much of Republican sick s h i t on us saying ! An evil genius would at least found Bin Laden by now and sent Bin Laden to where he belongs ! George Bush is just a lying evil Republican !
