The President has to go to the toilet. Tee hee, snicker, snicker, snicker.

[Old Professer]

Okay, so he isn't smugly dismissive, he is just in over his head; is that what they are saying?

[wolfcreek]

If I had to listen to that crap all day, I probably need to go too.

From Yesterdays Thread:

Reuters Photog Appears To Capture Bush at U.N. Writing note About "Bathroom Break"

Most contend it is a forgery as it is in PRINTING ON THE TOP and cursive on the bottom. All of President Bush's known writing has been in cursive.

[Virginia Queen]

What a sleazy bunch of slugs these are!!!!!!!!! Well at least it proves the President is, in fact, a real person like the rest of us. I wonder that many of the reporters/photographers can say the same.
I think we should start a campaign to see how many of these breaks everyone in government makes. lol

“If Rick knew what he was writing we'd have 25 pictures of this, not two.”

Um, why?

[Jaded]

What a bunch of fricken clymers. Isn't there something more important going on? This really is a whole new low.

[Vaquero]

I wonder if they were as quick to get a picture of the former chief executive writing a note on how he needed to find a zoftig intern with a blue dress to defile

I bet that's the last time 'W' will accept a glass of iced tea from algore.

[b4its2late]

This will REALLY sell papers. /sarcasm

The real story is the corruption of the UN. They coddle dictators and communists, they steal money, they look the other way at child rape, and genocide, yet all Reuters is concerned about is that the leader of the free world may have breached protocol because he needed to use the bathroom. The dinosaur media, it's dying for a reason.

Leaking undermines national security, no matter who does it.

Bush made Katrina. Bush must be a god. Gods don't need potty breaks. Bush was making a joke.

[Dr.Syn]

The entire time spent at the U.N. is a bathroom break!

[pillut48]

I am appalled and furious that the Dallas Morning News chose to run this stupid picture with a 'serious' story about the UN--
on page 2A of today's (Sept. 15th) paper!!! >:-(

My husband has been wanting to end our subscription, and this will probably do it for us. Idiots, they've turned into such a tabloid, it isn't funny.

“Rick had no idea what he was shooting, or what Bush was writing,” Heeshorn said. “If Rick knew what he was writing we'd have 25 pictures of this, not two.”

No photographer should be allowed to take pictures of anything the POTUS writes on a piece of paper to his Secretary of State. What if the "note" was a reference to something highly classified? That's the part that gets me.

These pissant reporters (sorry to insult you by lumping you in with reporters, Pissant) pull some BS like this and then they wonder why no one wants them around. Sorry b*st*rds.

How many notes did Bill Clinton write saying "Sid, I want to bone this speaker", or "Vernon, let's double-team this one, like last year in Georgetown". No one would ever dare to poublish those.

[Savage Beast]

Maybe it wasn't malicious, but it is the usual level on which "Mainstream Newsmedia" "journalism" functions--about like men's room graffiti. It's little wonder that more and more people have about that much respect for it.

[nmh]

This is probably big news for liberals - Bush takes a potty break ... I bet their imaginations are going wild in the gutter.
