George W. Bush Will Debate Bill Clinton

Dimwitted former cheerleader and frat-boy boozer George W. Bush has agreed to face loquacious skirt-chaser and crafty triangulater Bill Clinton in a debate. With words! In our dreams, it goes something like this:

Of course, Clinton's too much of a centrist company man to bring the hammer down, and the fun will probably come, as usual, from watching Bush mis-articulate his deluded perspective on his "legacy." Still, to be safe, Clinton ought to pat Bush down thoroughly before the debate to make sure he's not cheating again.

The debate is set for February 25th, 2010 at Radio City Music Hall, as part of the third annual "Minds That Move The World" series. Tickets go on sale November 16th (tomorrow for AmEx cardholders) through Ticketmaster at $60 for the cheap seats and $1,250 if you want to join both presidents at a pre-debate reception for cocktails and picture-taking and awkwardness.

I actually wanna see this. It would be nice to see Bush bitch-slapped.

"Dimwitted former cheerleader and frat-boy boozer George W. Bush has agreed to face loquacious skirt-chaser and crafty triangulater Bill Clinton in a debate."
As I read the first sentence, I immediately knew it was a John Del Signore post.

"Minds That Move The World"? I just can't wait for Jon Stewart to see this!

Awesome! We will hopefully get some new lol jargon out of this, "internets" is kinda played out now.

Remember when W pwned Al Gore in their debates? Never underestimate the W.

No, I don't remember it because it didn't happen. Is this a lame attempt to do more of the GOP's famous "rewriting history"?

Actually, the lazy media pwned lazy America by framing the debate in the most shallow parameters, fixating on Gore's "pedantic" sighing and giving Bush a pass on his fraudulent folksiness, as if it was some kind of average Joe authenticity.

By pwned you mean cater to the stupid among us? Then yeah he pwned him.

Bush was shrewd. Act stupid and cater to the stupid. Hint, there are a lot more dim-witted, short-sighted life forms in this country than there are rational people.

Ford's theatre and Abraham Lincoln assassination come to mind.

"The famous actor, John Wilkes Booth, desperate to aid the dying Confederacy, stepped into the box where the presidential party was sitting and shot Lincoln. Booth then jumped onto the stage, and cried out "Sic semper tyrannis" (some heard "The South is avenged!") just before escaping through the back of the theater."

I did not make any threats against either party. I was stating what came to my mind and quoted a segment from wikipedia. Now if others have any ideas, well they didn't come from me or my social networks. Capiche.

Notice the shirt. I rest my case.

I don't like Bush but I find it amazing how people have always underestimated the guy. You can't argue the fact that he wins.

Anyone who datamined me for that comment is just arrogant. This is a free country and I never murdered anyone. Something just came to my mind and I said it. Too many humans with too much time on their hands. I made no threats, and I fully am aware this forum was in the public domain, not in encrypted format so the information was blatently out in the open and not even hidden behind encryption algorithms which are complex and quantitative.

In my head when I made that comment was Bernard Kerik so I added the "capiche" for effect since he was one of the best police commissioners we ever had. I don't own a gun nor wear a tshirt but I am fully aware of history.

I also realize Michael Bloomberg was here just the other day by the subway station and I realize fully its election time right now.

Just wonder why my comment rose to the level of being datamined when it was in anonymous format and the call originated in the state capital of Albany, New York.

I made no extremist statements, in fact I mentioned history, and factual information.

As I said people have just too much time on their hands to bother looking at someone like my information.

Well that 'dimwit' beat both Gore and Kerry, and had higher grades than both of them in school. Clinton is a classic case of genius being wasted due to deranged narcissism. This should be entertaining given that nothing is on the line. W has been getting a lot of props for his post-presidential appearances, not to mention his steadfast refusal to bash his successor.

No, I mean the dimwit whose smart handlers stole the election from Al Gore and then scared the plebes into relecting Bush with a strategy of 9/11 fearmongering. (They also most likely stole the election via Ohio that year, too.) Agreed on Clinton, though.

Still hurting from 2000 elections, Johnny? Nobody stole elections for Bush. It was those catatonic retirees from Brooklyn that shafted Gore in Florida. At least Al had enough free tome to become a self-made billionaire from peddling his climate change junk science.

John, let it go buddy. The amount of self-righteous tension built up within you must be incredible.

Guiliani isnt in Albany yet and the Governor race ain't over. So why is Albany calling me now? David Patterson is still governor and Albany is controlled by Democrats.

Please take your medication at least 45 min. before commenting.

A: I received a call from a 518 area code number which is Albany, NY after I made my comment. It was datamined then went to my cellphone. No message was left. The number checks out to Albany, NY which is the state capital and today is an election day. No one should be calling me from that number period.

If someone had something to say to me, they could have responded to my comment in kind on the internet rather than going the backwards route to datamine my cellphone back to an incoming number. Not even that, but no message was left to boot.

Telling someone to take their meds is a copout answer.

Lets get into a Hamilton vs Madison duel and take out outside. I will get us two weapons. That is the best way to resolve this.

You offend me and I can sue you since you are not a licensed psychiatrist if I intended to use the legal route. Can even request your IP considering I have vivid proof I was datamined due to this comment.

But then you get in a tit for tat and the charges only get worse. Impeachment, indictments, assasignation, suicide.

The man in yellow says hello.

I hope that halfway through the debate one of those stage prop zeppelins moves out over the top of the stage with a Greek chorus and Michael Bloomberg in it. Then Bloomberg jumps out and glides down (he is on a hoisting system) and floats over both of them cumming all over theirs head while laughing hysterically. Meanwhile the chorus explains in song that he gets three terms and they only get two.

Will this be televised???

Its hard to imagine anything more pointless.

I'd rather see their daughters debate...in jello.

Not Chelsea, pleeeeze, excuse me....(wretch)

I hope the audience has good arms to throw shoes.

All proceeds better go toward unemployment compensation, or Bush wins by default.

How is this not on pay-per-view?!

Hopefully Bruce Buffer will be ring announcer.

C'est fini.

Hopefully Bruce Buffer will be ring announcer.

C'est fini.
