Lombardo told the president that she was in New York City on Nov. 11, 2001, when Bush attended an event recognizing soldiers for their recovery and rescue efforts at Ground Zero. She said the troops began the fight against terrorism in the wake of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and were proud to continue it in Iraq.

"I thought you looked familiar," Bush said, and then joked: "I probably look familiar to you, too."

"If he wants the real opinions of the troops, he can't do it in a nationally televised teleconference," Rieckhoff said. "He needs to be talking to the boots on the ground and that's not a bunch of captains."

So do you have any comments to add to it, or just figure that this will create some kind of great discord amongst us all that this type of thing would happen???

Cause it happens all the time, just watch the "that 70's show" were Ford came into town and Red was chosen to ask him a question(chosen by the local committee).

No big surprise, and hardly breaking news,

No other president would ever stoop to such things.....

and Ashley Simpson actually sings live during every show.......

NPR played the audio from 30 minutes before the actual teleconference where they were prepping exactly who would comment and who would respond to his questions.

Yes there is. What was the finest example of a triple allegory in Cinematic History?

Monty Python's Search for the Holy Grail.

:D

I was thinking something along the lines of 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Clearly this tale is not forcasting the future but is telling the story of
1)Zarathustra; 2)Arthur C Clarks tale of Men melding with machine; and finally 3)Homers Odyssey itself.

Well, the Grail was about man's eternal quest for glory, peril and nice shrubbery.

Oh, great. Now I am forced to revaluate the whole Grail thing. Let's face it- the big man and the little wafer scene was good. So were the Corporate Pirates.

Then there is Brian..... "How shall we **** off, oh lord?" That one is just chock full of allegory! Well, really funny lines, anyway.

I thought that the death comes to dinner "skit" was great too....

"This is Mr. E.R. Bradshaw of Napier Court, Black Lion Road London SE5. He can not be seen. Now I am going to ask him to stand up. Mr. Bradshaw will you stand up please?"

Mr Bradshaw stands up. There is a loud gunshot as Mr Bradshaw is shot in the stomach, and crumples to the ground

"This demonstrates the value of not being seen."
