MASSET: BOB BULLOCK LIVES!!![in President Bush]
Quorum Report R&D ^ | November 9, 2006 | Royal Masset

Regular contributor Royal Masset has a unique take on President Bush and a congress controlled by Democrats

The most influential man in Washington in the coming weeks will never be seen on cable TV news channels. His name will not be mentioned on This Week or by Chris Matthews or even Tim Russert. He will never write a tell all book. Yet this person’s advice will direct President Bush as he makes dramatic changes in his leadership style and enters a new era of bipartisanship. His name is Bob Bullock.

Although he died in 1999, the invisible arm of Bullock still guides President Bush. National observers wonder how Bush will govern now that Republicans have lost both houses of Congress. We Texans understand that this is where Bush came in. As Governor his political ballpark was controlled by Democrats. George knows this field.

When first elected George could have engaged in perpetual gridlock as did Bill Clements, the previous Republican Governor. But he found a great coach who mentored him about playing with Democrats. Lt. Governor Bob Bullock taught Bush the political ropes. He did such a good job that his wet behind the ears rookie became US President.

President Bush will shock the Washington Press Corps by how well he adapts to the newly Democrat controlled Congress. Yesterday’s resignation of Rumsfeld will only be the first in several agile moves Bush takes on the political base path. This is where Bush is in his element. This is what he has been trained for. This is who he is.

"On November 8, 2006 a reporter at a Bush post-election press conference asked the President if he thought House Speaker-to-be Nancy Pelosi resembled Bullock. The President mentioned it was an inside joke. The substance of this joke is unknown, but it apparently had to do with a comment the President made toward the reporter in the past." Fom Wikipedia

The only problem with this is that Bullock was no Nancy Pelosi.

One day as governor, Bush had a conversation with Bullock about a bill in the legislature.

"We're going to f*** you on this one, governor," said Bullock.

Bush gave Bullock a great big ol' kiss. "If you're going to f*** me, you're damn well gonna kiss me first."

Bullock cracked up laughing and became Bush's biggest booster afterward.

We'll see if he kisses Pelosi before she f***s him (us).

The press is already starting to change their stories. The day before the election, all hell was breaking loose in Afghanistan - according to the press.
2 days after the election, now that democrats are in charge, they're planting daisy's in Afganistan and everyone is living is glorious bliss - according to the press.
