Gun Bush chose TV-friendly jet landing over simple helicopter ride
May 8 2003
For his dramatic jet landing on an aircraft carrier last
week, George Bush wore a flight suit and a helmet and had to take underwater
survival training in the White House swimming pool.
But as it turns out, the United States President chose to make the jet
landing even after he was told he could easily reach the ship by helicopter,
the White House said, changing its explanation for Mr Bush's Top Gun-style
event.
Explanation for Bush's Carrier Landing Altered
Washington Post, DC
By Dana Milbank - Washington Post Staff Writer
Wednesday, May 7, 2003
President Bush chose to make a jet landing on an aircraft carrier last week
even after he was told he could easily reach the ship by helicopter, the
White House said yesterday, changing the explanation it gave for Bush's "Top
Gun" style event. |
Today's cartoon was inspired by Bush breaking the world
record for extravagant photo-ops using the military as his backdrop.

"During an address from the aircraft
carrier, the USS Lincoln, President Bush declared the war in Iraq a success
saying no terrorist network will gain weapons of mass destruction from the Iraqi
regime because it turns out they didn't have any." —Jimmy Fallon, Saturday Night

Lots of EMAIL:
Enjoyed your site -- Bush is a purposeless man, but I have great faith in
his cowardice.
That may be his downfall.
Thank you. Remember when Shrub told us he was going to take crime out of the
streets. He did.
He took it into Wall Street and into the damn White House!
The nemesis of the Powerpuff Girls is an evil, insane monkey obsessed with
world domination. Hmm...

I read in a letter on www.MediaWhoresOnline.com that Bush's aircraft
carrier photo-op stunt cost the taxpayers $5 million!! Do you know if that
figure is true? And also, do you know if there is a statute of limitations
on deserting your Air National Guard post? Keep up the good work.

Great questions Jim. Senator Robert Byrd (toon
today) wants a detailed list of expenditures for the Bush photo-op for
Campaign 2004. We'll see what the actual cost was.
I don't know the answer to your second question. Anyone out there know?

A couple of pictures for your site if you want. They might be funnier run
side by side. Thanks a million for your site!
