Hooknswoop 19 #5 November 21, 2005 Quotewhat a bumbling moron! Like you have never pushed instead of pulled, pulled instead of pushed, or tried to open a door you didn't know was locked. Does that make you a moron? Derek Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gawain 0 #11 November 21, 2005 Well, he played it, for the moment that it was... Quote"I was trying to escape. Obviously, it didn't work," Bush quipped, facing reporters again until an aide rescued him by pointing to him toward the correct door.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

Hooknswoop 19 #12 November 21, 2005 I agree that it is funny, but I don't think trying to open a locked door makes one a moron. Derek Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm nota huge Bush fan, but I don't think it is fair to call him a moron for trying to open a locked door, in a foreign country no less. Derek Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebecca 0 #14 November 21, 2005 I don't think that makes him a moron, he just did a realistic impression of one. His peeps should have prepared him for an exit... you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, not exactly a good analogy, but if someone told me I looked stupid trying to open a locked door in front of international press, I'd say, "Yeah, I know. I felt pretty stupid too.

kelpdiver 2 #20 November 21, 2005 QuoteI agree that it is funny, but I don't think trying to open a locked door makes one a moron. no kidding. It's hard enough to avoid embarassing yourself when you don't have people constantly watching you for gaffes or odd facial expressions that can be shown out of context. It does sound like it was extremely funny given his intent to escape. Hey, he didn't bomb anyone as a result, so everyone had a little laugh.

What would your psychological assessment be of someone like that? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
