george bush and his fart catchers

the journal of Michael Werneburg

I saw "Fahrenheit 9/11" with Charlie today. It was an enraging film.

I'd thought that Bush was a self-serving maniac, but I hadn't realized what a basket case he really is. There is one scene where he's shooting skeet: he misses, and petulantly turns to his flunkies and says "Did I hear a 'nice shot'?" Someone obligingly says, "nice shot" between catching farts.
