Insert "Billy Beer" Joke Here

Quote of the week, First Family edition:

"Mr. Bush, you have to admit it's a pretty remarkable thing for a man just to go to a hotel room door and open it and have a woman standing there and have sex with her."

–Marshall Davis Brown, attorney for Neil Bush's ex-wife, during the couple's divorce proceedings

I guess it’s good to be a Bush.

Its deja vu all over again:
During the Carter presidency, I was lamenting that the wrong brother made it to the Oval Office. (Actually Jimmy’s mother would have made the best Prez.)

This guy has an awesome life. He gets paid millions for being the brother of the President and he opens the door every so often and there’s a woman who has sex with him. Why can’t I have that life?

[Dwight Brown]

“… it’s a pretty remarkable thing for a man just to go to a hotel room door and open it and have a woman standing there and have sex with her.”

Gee. According to Lawrence Taylor, it happens all the time.

adsf,
Start campaigning right now to get your defective brother famous.

I’m an only child, but I still would prefer the opportunity to do a little “sweet talkin'” before jumpin’ the bones of the girl behind the green door.

And yet, gay marriage is the worst threat to that institution to come along a century, not selfishness, questionable ethics and infidelity. Go figure.

I would *so* love for someone to put Bush on the spot and ask why Neil should be free to marry again, if marriage needs defending.

“And yet, gay marriage is the worst threat to that institution to come along a century, not selfishness, questionable ethics and infidelity. Go figure.”

Can’t forget Newt Gingrich divorcing his first wife while she was in the hospital recovering from cancer surgery, claiming “She isn’t young enough or pretty enough to be the President’s wife.” Rather than fight the Defense of Marriage Act, we should fight to expand its coverage to straight people, so no one can get married. That seems like the best way to protct it.

i have noticed the weddings my five year old cousin arranges between her stuffed animals are remarkably free of strife, though usually cut tragically short by acts of God (toychests being overturned, a lose basketball, etc)

[R. C. Dean]

The fact that Marshall Brown thinks its remarkable tells you a lot more about Marshall Brown’s, um, social life, than it does about Neil’s.

Does anyone who visits this site ever have a serious thought about anything for more than 2 seconds?

[dhex]

no!
yes!
maybe?

[Grant Gould]

If the government can’t be troubled to take the whole governing thing seriously for two seconds, it hardly seems wrong for its critics to be unable to take it seriously for two seconds either. Besides, if we thought seriously about the state of our various governing dynasties for any substantial and consecutive length of time, we’d have to kill someone to break the fits of alternating rage and depression.

Laughter is humanity’s only defense mechanism against self-righteous idiots endowed with public admiration.

i wanna know which government agency was responsible for removing the sense of humor from so many libertarians.

can’t blame everything on ayn rand, after all.

[Fyne Jr.]

G. Gould. I believe the report was about G. W’s brother. How exactly is he the government?

[Kevin Carson]

dhex,

No, but it usually starts with Ayn Rand.

[Andrew Lynch]

This is boring. Isn’t there something important to talk about?

[fyodor]

adsf,

Women have sex with me whenever I open a door. I don’t know what your problem is.

[Fyne Jr.]

Again to bourgboy. What institution are you talking about? I had to make sure again that the article was talking about Bush’s brother.
