(humor break) George Bush looks like a fool for false claims on website

It is not only John Kerry who puts out false information. On Kerry's website was info that was hurredly removed that claimed the candidate was the Vice Chair of the Intelligence Committee. Whoops. That was actually Bob Kerrey. In fact, John attended very few of the very important public or private meetings.

Now comes a snafu that has the Bush campaign reeling. It could seriously damage the credibility of the President.

Like Kerry, apparently the president has had trouble with the truth. Just removed from his website were claims that Bush has 4 Winston Cup victories, was runner-up in 2001 for Winston Cup rookie of the year, won the pole position for the 2001 Southern 500 at Darlington, won four Craftsman Truck races, and was the 1999 Featherlite Southwest Tour chamption.

George Bush has, in fact, done none of those things. It is a total fabrication, and he and his campaign should be ashamed of themselves for the blatant lies.

It turns out that the person with the driving resume is actually Kurt Busch. It sounds the same, but it is not spelled the same.

How could something like this happen to make the entire Bush/Cheney effort look so amateurish?

[atomicpossum]

So GW is not the world's biggest beer maker, either?

[BenLurkin]

Doug, are you pulling our legs?

[So Cal Rocket]

Another lie on the Bush/Cheney '04 website:

"Dick Cheney made his debut at the movies in 1912 and his filmography is vast. Dick Cheney was especially famous for his horror parts in movies like e.g. Quasimodo in "The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1923)". Due to his special make-up effects he carried the characterization to be "the man with the thousand faces". He only filmed one movie with sound: The remake of one of his earlier films "The Unholy Three (1930)".

It turns out the person with this resume is Lon Chaney, a similar sounding name with different spelling.

[kevkrom]

Tell me he's still da man for baked beans, though!

[My2Cents]

Maybe they were thrown off by this --

[eyespysomething]

I can see the resemblence. No wonder they were confused.

[ravingnutter]

Tell me he's still da man for baked beans, though!

Nope...the dog ratted him out on that one...

[Oztrich Boy]

but don't forget John Kerry starred in Ace Ventura, Pet Detective

LOL! Why even worry? Those claims do not involve natioanl security, nor do they slander Vietnam Vets, nor do they promote a socialists agenda, nor were they intended to mislead voters - as sKerrys claims obviously were!

[doug from upland]

Very well done! I also just discovered that Condoleezza Rice does hold all the receiving records for the 49ers.

[doug from upland]

Okay, someone has to do it. We need side by side pictures of George and Kurt; Dick and Lon; Condoleezza and Jerry.

[doug from upland]

We can really carry this forward and continue the mocking.

[hushpad]

Oh, this thread is a joke - I fell for it.

Now I AM laughing!

[Petronski]

Nice. I get it.

[normy]

"President Bush, speaking to a crowd of Hispanic voters in Florida spoke of his hardships growing up with a Hispanic mother and White Father and the predjudices he faced because of that Hispanic blood."

"He later was forced to retract his statements after his nephew George P. Bush claimed he was the Bush of Hispanic ancestry."

"President Bush claimed an over zealous staffer put that in his speech."

[Joe 6-pack]

I have it on good authority that Dubya drove his stock car into Cambodia back in '68 (or was it '69?).

[Fierce Allegiance]

lol ping.

[marktuoni]

FROM THE WEBSITE:

COLIN POWELL: In 1869 Major Colin Powell's expedition through the white water of the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon caused a sensation. Powell was not the first to navigate the river, but his writings stirred the interest of adventurers around America.

This was actually John Wesley Powell

[doug from upland]

Sorry, I guest I should have put (humor break) in bigger font in front of the headline.

(HUMOR BREAK)

[doug from upland]

Good.

[doug from upland]

General Tommy Franks did not write a diary and hide in an attic in Nazi Germany.

[doug from upland]

Clarence Thomas never high jumped over 7 feet.

[glock rocks]

Levity.

Pinging the FR Nascar gang.

Please FReepmail if you'd like on or off the Nascar ping list.

[Salvation]

Some aides will not be happy over this!

[hushpad]

OH Heck! now it's even funnier.

I saw the (Humor Break), but must have went "democrat" for a second because I just did not "get it" until after I posted. I dont know what I thought humor break meant, but it HAS provided me with MUCH HUMOR!

[Salvation]

Are you series? Was the website hacked or is this really humor????

[malia]

"I have it on good authority that Dubya drove his stock car into Cambodia back in '68 (or was it '69?)".

Shhhh it's supposed to a be secret! Please don't tell about the secret cap in the briefcase!

[My2Cents]

Another lie:

"Pres. Bush has not infringed upon the policy making powers that he feels the Constitution gave Congress. But the determination of foreign policy has become preponderantly a Presidential concern. When the French Revolution led to a major war between France and England, Bush refused to accept entirely the recommendations of either his Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson, who is pro-French, or his Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton, who is pro-British. Rather, he insisted upon a neutral course until the United States could grow stronger...."

The webdesigner was confusing "George W" with George Washington.

[Conspiracy Guy]

Cousin Eddie: Are you serious Clark?

[Vinnie]

Very well done! I also just discovered that Condoleezza Rice does hold all the receiving records for the 49ers.

Stop it. You're killing me!!

[ItsTheMediaStupid]

Hmmm,
An interesting idea to raise government revenue and possibly lower our tax's!

[curlewbird]

What about Baked Beans??

[atomicpossum]

but don't forget John Kerry starred in Ace Ventura, Pet Detective

Get outta town! Kerry was never 'Ace.'

Maybe 'Ace-hole...'

[My2Cents]

What I think is particularly cute is the Halliburton logo above the final "A" in "America."

[glock rocks]

Yup.

[kevkrom]

I also just discovered that Condoleezza Rice does hold all the receiving records for the 49ers.

I think she also helped write the lyrics for musicals like Aida, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, Blondel, Chess, Cricket, Evita, Heathcliff, Jesus Christ Superstar, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, King David, The Likes of Us, and The Lion King

Oh... wait... that was Tim Rice. Never mind.

[WestCoastGal]

LOL

I heard "W" was ready and waiting in the pits to take over the #20 car when Tony Stewart became ill during the Watkins Glen this past week.

[HenryLeeII]

Great pic! The president's vehicle has a slow starting speed, but once it gets going, it just flies by the competition!

[doug from upland]

Elaine Chao did not invent saying ciao at trendy Hollywood parties.

[kevkrom]

I also understand that Karen Hughes is responsible for the DirecTV home satellite system.

[doug from upland]

Here's a shocker. It turns out that Spencer Abraham did not make a Covenant with God.

[Freemyland]

So Mary Matalin did not win an Oscar for "Children of a Lesser God?"

[Twinkie]

It's stupid. He wouldn't have done it. Sounds
like a ringer planted in the campaign worker ranks.

[kingattax]

GIDDYUP W !!!!

[glock rocks]

It's stupid. He wouldn't have done it.

Are you kidding? He's a Craftsman Truck Series natural!

[Onelifetogive]

So GW is not the world's biggest beer maker, either?

No, but he does claim to be cold-filter, with a crisp, refreshing taste.....

[dead]

I really loved Ted Olsen on "Full House." I never even realized he was actually twins!

[KiloLima]

Oh hi, I just got here. Did someone say that Kurt Busch is a VIETNAM WAR VETERAN HERO WITH THREE PURPLE HEARTS??!!!

[lawgirl]

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
