"Just wait"...

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '
')BUSH: I talked about my desire to promote institutional change in parts of the world, like Iraq, where there’s a free press and free religion. And I told him that a lot of people in our country would hope that Russia will do the same thing. I fully understand, however, that there will be a Russian-style democracy.

PUTIN: We certainly would not want to have same kind of democracy as they have in Iraq, quite honestly.

BUSH: Just wait.


What an immature incompetent clown.

I don't get it. It wasn't exactly a good comeback, but can hardly be called inflammatory.

I think that's the point, what comeback could he have employed?

It's a nice embarassing moment for the cretin-in-chief, the G8 is there to try and help shape the future, and it nicely shows the bankruptcy of bubble-boys ideas.

Yeah actually you are right.

I did get it totally wrong first when I read the transcript, I interpreted the "just wait" as a threat to bring Iraq-style - "democracy" to Russia - now that would have been inflammatory.

But from the movie clip it's clear that he meant just to wait for democracy to blossom in Iraq - a really helpless answer, he stood there like a poodle and everybody was laughing at him...

Yes, did you see them laughing - rather loudly - and right at Bush. Putin rolled his eyes and joined in with the rest of them at Bush's expense.

Bush's comeback wasn't much to speak of, and he looked defensive and upset. He definitely isn't used to being mocked. His hand-picked US audiences always buoy him up with adoration.

Well, he's got another 2.5 years of reaping the consequences to enjoy.

I thought it was both sad and yeah, inflammatory. Let's hope that since Putin was the man that had eyes who Bush looked into his soul, will have Putin see the soul back and realize that dubya wasn't being an ass but rather just an incompetent schmuck. :(

christ, give me a break. "oohhh, poor bush, I feel sooo sorry for him"

I saw the coverage of this on CNN and laughed my ass off! It is always a precious gem to see a high level american get mocked and laughed at, I don't care if it is the most incompetent and unknowing fool that has ever presided...


When bush said "just wait" my level of embarrasement at being an american skyrocketed to an all time high. It made me realize, hearing the croud laugh like that, that nobody has respect for this once great nation, anymore... And that is what is sad...

bush is just a mouthpiece for a larger group and agenda. Nothing more, nothing less. Thats why they had him in florida reading a book about goats to kindergardners when 911 was taking place.
