From The Dreyfuss Report:

Iraq Big Joke to W. link

So Iraq is a big joke to President Bush. The frat-boy president thinks that not finding weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, at the cost of a nation ruined and tens of thousands killed, is a towel-snapping hoot.

In perhaps the most tasteless display ever put on by a president, Bush made a funny out of Iraq at last night’s Radio-TV Correspondents Association dinner. (No, I didn’t go to that event. I haven’t ever been to one of those yuck-yuck insider sessions ever, and I wouldn’t go if I were invited, unless it were to investigate the participants.)

Anyway, here is the account of Bush’s supposedly hilarious appearance before the tuxedo-clad elite, from The Washington Post this morning:

He (Bush) put up dorky looking pictures of himself. A recurring joke involved photos of the president in awkward positions-bent over as if he’s looking under a table, leaning to look out a window-accompanied by remarks such as “Those weapons of mass destruction must be somewhere!” and “Nope, no weapons over there!” and “Maybe under here?”

That’s funny? I wish the tape of the president cackling about his lies over Iraq could be broadcast on Iraqi TV. And maybe shown to the families of U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq.

When I heard about Dubya’s string of bon mots, I figured that it’s just par for the course. Does it really seem appropriate for an alleged president to make jokes at the expense of US soldiers and innocent Iraqis who’ve died because of his fabricated war? I can think of several very fitting words to describe him, but I would be banned from LUGNET for using them.

Dave!

(...) You already know the answer to that one, Dave! (...) I think you can find lots of fitting words that don't violate the ToS, Dave! (21 years ago, 25-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
