Are You Bianca?
President Bush appeared deeply confused and bewildered at his Pentagon press conference yesterday. Take a look at the transcript or watch the video at Crooks and Liars. It gives credence to the rumors about the return of his alcoholism:
THE PRESIDENT: Bianca. Nobody named Bianca? Well, sorry Bianca's not here. I'll be glad to answer her question.
Q I'll follow up.
THE PRESIDENT: No, that's fine. (Laughter.) Thank you though, appreciate it. Just trying to spread around the joy of asking a question.
A few minutes later in the press conference:
Q Mr. President, could we talk more about --
THE PRESIDENT: Are you Bianca?
Q No, I'm not. Anita -- Fox News.
THE PRESIDENT: Okay.
Q Just a quick question --
THE PRESIDENT: Okay. I was looking for Bianca. I'm sorry.
The New York Post reports that Bianca was in fact Bloomberg reporter Bianca Davie who was seated in the back of the briefing room but did not hear Bush calling her name.
Was Bianca a plant? Another Jeff Gannon perhaps? Someone Bush could look to for a softball question? Things are getting stranger and stranger by the minute.

Okay, here's the deal. He's coked up and thinking about Bianca Jagger. He spent all night drinking Rebel Yell whiskey, tooting coke and playing old Stones records. He probably put the needle of his record player in the groove of I Can't Get No Satisfaction so many times the diamond wore off. The man is seriously f-up.

Honestly, I think we should just trust our president in every decision that he makes and we should just support that, you know, and be faithful in what happens.

You fuckers need to move to Canada.
I ain't even fuckin with you... get the fuck outta there now.
This is like letting your drunk friend drive... letting him crash the car into the tree... then waiting for him to regain consciousness so he can keep driving.
If more than half the people in the car want that then at some point YOU need to make a decision to seek alternate transport.

So, they're telling him which reporters he can speak to now, and he can't even find them? Sheesh, even Rove is going to dump him for greener pastures!
