War is funny to Bush

[thetorch]

Bush put on a slide show, calling it the "White House Election-Year Album" at the Radio and Television Correspondents' Association 60th annual dinner, showing himself and his staff in some decidedly unflattering poses. There was Bush looking under furniture in a fruitless, frustrating search. "Those weapons of mass destruction have got to be somewhere," he said.

This is a redundant post Torch.

Yeah but it is true, I watched it.

On one hand it was funny, he made himself look bad.

On the other hand, there were families of dead soldiers that may have been watching, and I bet they think it's VERY FUNNY that there are no WMD.

[DaLode]

Fair enough.

I couldn't agree more.

SOME things, based on your own mentality, just AREN'T funny.

Kind of like this?

FLASHBACK: KERRY JOKES ABOUT 'ASSASSINATIONS'
Thu Mar 25 2004 17:45:05 ET

Dem presidential candidate John Kerry lashed out at President Bush over self-deprecating jokes made at this year's Radio and Television Correspondents' Dinner.

But Kerry himself has had trouble with pushing the humor envelope.

"Somebody told me the other day that the Secret Service has orders that if George Bush is shot, they're to shoot Quayle," Kerry joked in 1988. The Massachusetts Democrat then said, "There isn't any press here, is there?"
