I'm pretty sure Bush's remark was what they call a "joke." That happens frequently at the Correspondents' Dinner, I'm led to understand.

Which happens? - the joking? - or the being carried to the limo? lol.

You mean Barney the dog DIDN'T eat the list of undisclosed locations, making it impossible to find Dick Cheney that day? I'm shocked! =:o)

Evidently you guys missed the video of this event. Bush's remarks delighted Osbourn who stood on his chair and blew kisses at Bush, receiving what amounted to rounds of applause from the audience. Your interpretation of this could be that Bush recieved the applause. The next morning more than one newspaper article refered to Osbourn as overshaddowing the President by his attendence.

Do you still contend recognizing Osbourn was a good idea?

It amazes me how people keep trying to cover for Bush's or his handler's idiotic mistake. Another huge mistake was having that idiot Drew Carey up there making fun of Bush's speaking imperfections. Bush is really destroying his presidency with all of his stupid mistakes. I always remember when he said that Jesus Christ was his idol. like Clinton waving his bible in the air like he was some kind of God fearing Christian, now I belive Bush really did not mean it when he said that Jesus was his idol. Bush is allowing the Federal government to grow exponentially. We are sunk as a Nation, I am afraid.

I just heard that Bush is putting Clinton in a group to go to East Timor as a sign of peace. We are finished as a nation, my friends. Kiss it goodbye.
