  2. JSB drew the correct conclusion, as anyone with even a basic
    understanding of social norms, facial expressions, and body language
    would have been able to do. It didn't take even a good poker player
    to read her right, so why do you think ESP was required?

    I disagree. From what I saw, she was surprised. But, when Bush was
    walking away, she was smiling (that was best viewed on the CBS video,
    not the ones YouTube - they were too short and didn't show Bush walking
    away).

    Whether she was trying to be tactful, because she was being filmed or
    not would require a mind-reader to figure out for sure. JBS, IMHO,
    doesn't qualify.

    I have never suggested Bush's behavior was appropriate.

    I disagree with your conclusion that you can make any conclusion, with
    just 5 seconds of video. We don't know if they were talking just before
    they sat down, what their interactions were like or why he did what he did.

    It may or may not have been totally innocent. I saw 20 seconds, at most,
    of video, taken out of context. I only know some of what happened, and
    only for 20 seconds. I am not going to judge anyone based on that.

  6. In your expert opinion, should a rational car buyer even bother to
    consider crash test results, or do those results matter too little to
    be significant in real life?

  10. "I've reminded the prime minister—the American people, Mr. Prime Minister,
    over the past months that it was not always a given that the United States
    and America would have a close relationship."—Washington, D.C., June 29,

    You only need to suffer for about 40 seconds before witnessing the
    stupidity.

  12. You most certainly did.

    Now, I'd like to know where your wife works. I want to walk up to her and
    touch her, just to see what happens. I'm sure that's OK with you.

    Where did I suggest that it was appropriate?

    I said it may have been innocent. Innocent is not the same as appropriate.

  18. Innocent, like a 3 year old child who's not yet familiar with societal
    norms?

    And...your wife. Where does she work. I want to touch her.

    Probably the same way that someone could prove that Bush has been clean and
    sober for quite a while now.

    moe n curly made the assertion that Bush was drunk, it is up to him to prove
    it. You cannot prove a negative.
