White House interns forced to fill seats at final Bush press conference
By SilentPatriot Tuesday Jan 13, 2009 8:00pm
The White House has been in full "re-write history" mode the past few months, but even the brilliant Bush spinmeisters couldn't spin the fact that no one really cares about what Bush has to say anymore.
With seven days left until he surrenders power, Bush will have to do a heck of a sales job to convince the nation of this. Further complicating his last-minute legacy rehabilitation: Nobody seems to be paying attention. The White House had high expectations for yesterday's final, historic news conference. "ONE CORRESPONDENT PER ORGANIZATION," proclaimed the bulletin sent to reporters. "STANDING ROOM ONLY FOR NON-SEAT HOLDERS." But when the appointed hour of 9:15 a.m. arrived, the last two rows in the seven-row briefing room were empty, and a press aide told White House interns to fill those seats.
You almost gotta feel sorry for the guy. Almost.

What do you expect, the country was pretty much forced to tolerate this dick-tater for 8 long and disastrous years.......
is the face of a mass murderer.
Sorry for him? The only thing I am sorry for is the death and destruction of so many lives. Here and over there.
Oh, and I'm sorry he is going to walk away from it all, free and clear.
What a miserable human being he is.
hehehehehehehehehehehhehehehehehehehehe.....
At least Monica Lewinski got a some nooky out of her stint in the WH. And a cigar.
Who would be left by now to serve as low-level gofers for Bush, anyway?
'D' students from Liberty University?
And all I got was this lousy Secretary of State T Shirt
i won't miss him........not even the jokes. i'm sick and tired of us he knows better BS. seeya george. you better write that book soon before your totally forgotten.
Should have invited Limpballs he would have taken up 3 seats
limbaugh was inside the podium.
If I came upon him on the street bruised and bloodied I would just keep walking. Sorry if that sounds cold but this is the man who is responsible for more than 1 million deaths in Iraq and 4,400 deaths of Americans in Iraq.
He is responsible for insighting more anger around the world and making it a more dangerous place, he is responsible for making America less respected and more hated, he is responsible for the crash of the economy, he is responsible for dirtier air, dirtier water and fewer consumer protections.
It will be a giant walk of shame as he slithers back to Crawford.
FUCK YOU GEORGE BUSH!!!!!
The "ranch" was a TV-ready set.
He is moving to Houston in a 2.1 million house, With servants, and in a WHITS ONLY club.
who'd have gladly taken those seats. They'd have had plenty to ask the c*cksucker, I'm sure.
Unfortunately, they'd have been blown off like Helen Thomas.
Rot in Hell, piece of shit.
Amid this horrid job market? Housing Market? Katrina? Entire system set up for the Wealthy? etc. etc. etc. As if!
Hey C & L, what the hell is up with your web site?
For two years I never had any problems commenting. Now, and during the last two weeks, everytime I come to the web site, I have to get a new password.
Then it makes me login each time, AND NEVER RECOGNIZZES my new password. This is becomming very tedious to say the least. Ideas?

say "Conditions in Guantanamo are good."
I'm not lying, nor drinking (much)!!
Wonder how they're gonna spin all those George W. Bush totally sucked, or GWB the biggest scumbag American destroying asshole of all time wings - that will be built in our public libraries.
Ha, Ha, couldn't happen to a better War Criminal.
will go out with a whimper. But I still believe that karma will pay him, Dick and Gonzo a visit in the future.
Good bye and good riddance.
No, Bush will go out with a BANG! Just wait until the 19th, when he signs all those RETROACTIVE, BLANKET PARDONS for Dick, Gonzo, Rove, Libby, De Lay, Abramoff, etc...
I have no capacity for ever feeling sorry for that man.
Never feel sorry for Bush the ass-clown. If I saw him on fire in an alley I wouldn't waste the piss to help put the fire out.
His reputation is such that when I read "...forced to fill seats" I assume they've been beaten, tortured and strapped into the seats.
And I could be right with this assclown.
Did the Interns get to ask questions?
..but Helen Thomas didn't!!...
Maybe now bush and cheney can go off to one of those top notch prison facillities in Guatonimo Bay that cheney is so proud of. Then in five years or more we can figure out what to charge them with...
This guy and his enablers will never change. Everything he touches turns to sh*t. Even if he turns into a recluse, he will somehow screw that up too.
seat fillers and all that same old bush co. BS and still the dorkwad would not call on Hellen Thomas. the man could not get any more pathetic.
And this tool expects to "replenish the ol' coffers" giving speeches when he can't even fill up a room for final press conference??!?
"I can just envision getting in the car, getting bored, going down to the ranch," he says. He also has big plans for making money. "I'll give some speeches, to replenish the ol' coffers," says Mr Bush, who is already estimated to be worth $20m. "I don't know what my dad gets - it's more than 50-75 [thousand dollars a speech], and "Clinton's making a lot of money".

And charging the audience $100 a head to throw shoes at him, like one of those carnival "Dunk a Dink" games.
He deserves to be carted off in cuffs crying like a baby like Jim Baker did.
In the final days of the bunker, nobody attended his press conferences either.
Not even almost.
my first reaction wouldn't be to feel sorry for him.
More like, "Son of a bitch, the guy was capable of _one_ honorable act."
now now if I saw bush on fire well I would feel rather sorry for the fire haveing to be subjected to such stupidity....naw Im kiding I would help him out I would get a baseball bat and beat the fire off of him I guess I got a kind spot for him after all
Geez, the movie Ishtar was more popular.

If he was on fire, I would not even PISS on him to put out the fire.
This asshole wants to be on TV Thursday night to give a good by. F him, lets make it the most unwatched 15 min in TV histroy.
I'd rather watch a show with more intelligent people:
My Name is Earl.
On the teevee last night...he ONCE AGAIN drove home the fact that he's a goddamn sociopath.
Don't let the screen door hit ya where the good Lord split ya, Mr. Ex-Pretzeldent.
There was about 6 million more votes for PE Obama, booshed had a TV Q & A the other day. They had to find people to fill the the last 2 rows. just tells me, they will play games to the end. Now, he wants to give the American people one more TV goodbye. I am sure he is going to tell just how good he has been. What the American people should give back is Not turning on the TV. Let this be the most NOT watched 15 min on TV in histroy of TV.
Here's wishing him indictment dreams and conviction wishes. The Dem's want to investigate him with a 9/11-style commission, complete with subpoena power. Good idea that, believe it when I see it though. They're pretty good at talking tough with no delivery. I watched maybe 5 minutes, then had to turn it off as the sound of his voice is comparable to finger nails on a chalk board, while the sight of him is just repulsive. So yeah...good f...in' riddance and don't let the door hit your ass on the way out. I wonder how long the White House is going to smell of sulfur?
As long as dick chainey takes nasty dumps in the oval office bathrooms.
I`ve never cared what this shrinky-dink of a man had to say, of course I never thought he would be a very good president either not after listening to fatboy (Limbaugh)for so many years and realizing what kind of a person he wanted as a leader. I just never expected him to turn out to be as useless as he is.
Did they tell bush that no one really cared enough to come to his last press conference or is this just another thing he is in the dark on?
