(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?

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

[BenLurkin]

Doug, are you pulling our legs?

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.

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.

"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."

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

[Fierce Allegiance]

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

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