You'll be seeing it on the news any time now... B ush   falls off his bike; BREAKING NEWS!

[WMCoolmon]

Edit: Oh, it makes a hella lot more sense with letters instead of asterisks.

[color=cc9900]I'm feeling helpful:
http://www.cnn.com/2004/US/05/22/bu sh.fall/index.html (remove the space in "bush fall")

The very fact that this even got reported by a major news station is stupid.[/color]

[Hippo]

and wow... the censorship goes into the urls too...

[Odyssey]

[color=cc9900]Try quoting my post to see how to get past the censorship in a regular post. I don't condone that on the other censored words though.

Unfortunately doing that screws up URLs.[/color]

[Rictor]

oh my god, this is truly the greatest story of the year. Nay, the century. I'll be telling my kids about this one.

seriously, I dislike **** as much as anyone, but why is this news exactly?

[Hippo]

wait... Segway scooters are self-balancing... I know i met the designers...

[q]Last June in Kennebunkport, the president fell while riding a "Segway Human Transporter."[/q]

[Deepblue]

[color=cc9900]AFAIK, it ran out of juice.[/color]

[JarC]

that only works when ridden by a human, not by a jackass

You guys dont know how to handle politics do you? Theres a quote by someone, I dont remember who, but it goes something like "I may now agree with what you say, but i'll give my life in defense of your right to say it."

[vyper]

Ur missing the point - they're mocking him 'cos he's an arsehole - they're not trying to gag him.

[Rictor]

Yeah, its like the Pretzelgate incident, or his various adventure in the realm of abstract English. The fact that it was a Segway self-balancing scooter only makes it funnier.

but its not news really. I think you missed the sarcasm in my post.

Voltaire I believe..

Thing about this one is, however, is that if they didn't report it right away that the President fell off his bike and got a couple of cuts and bruises to his face then the conspiracy nuts would be writing books about this and CNN would have a 24 hours a day coverage of the ongoing investigation into how the president go his cuts.

Better to come out and say it...

[DragonClaw]

Yes Voltaire, and it's
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

But, I fail to see how this applies

Though I do find it rather amusing how people make such a big deal over a simple fall.

Which president?

AFAIK presidents have to be elected.

[Taristin]

Not when you're brother's the governor of the state that's hanging in the balance.

[Rictor]

or when you've got Pappy's friends sitting on the bench of the Supreme Court.

Mmmm I don't think you got what I said

Or I'm not getting the point or direction of this thread.  Either way

[Taristin]

He's trying to change the focus of the thread to "**** is not the real president." It's a subtle derailment.
