The Washington Post reports, “What really gets George W. Bush riled up? Calling him a fashion victim.” After Marques Harper of the Austin American- Statesman wrote a short style piece critiquing Bush’s choice of clothing when he’s down on the Crawford ranch, noting that lately “he’s opted to look more like ‘Walker, Texas Ranger’ than a sweaty, tough ranch hand.” Harper said after the article appeared, the White House called to express its disdain:
Harper received a phone call that morning from White House deputy press secretary Dana Perino, who, Harper told friends, said the president read the article and was unhappy about the way he was portrayed.

August 17th, 2007 at 3:30 pmIt’s no surprise that the libtarded media elite like Harper derogate Bush because they despise his casual way of dressing, his down-to-earth, straightforward demeanor, and his earnest sense of style. That’s why Bush dresses in jeans, with a cowboy hat, and in casual clothing: because he’s humble and unassuming. Now, the Statesman reporter, Harper, obviously demeans everyone (read: most Americans) for dressing casually because to him, only Armani suits and elitist types of Euro-fashions worn by the likes of unAmerican Nancy Pelosi are what suit his leftarded tastes. This derogation by Harper of Bush is just ANOTHER example in the long, relentless line of notoriety by the lib media. This includes personal attacks and ridicule of the president, which totally trespass against the lib media’s alleged duty: to be professional and not take partisan positions in reporting.

Which outfit is Bush wearing???
August 17th, 2007 at 4:37 pmI’m scared Terry. Wall Street is in a crisis.
And this President, the man who took a 1.6 TRILLION dollar surplus that Bill Clinton handed him, and SQAUNDERED IT, divying it up in TINY INSIGNIFICANT amounts, (300 and 600 dollars) and just handed it out to the people in his first few months in office and THEN, he took us into war spending 700 BILLION dollars that we didn’t have and counting, , this President, is wallowing away the hours pulling weeds in the squalor that is Crawdad, while the country collapses around him.
I’ve been worried for a while, but for the first time, I’m actually scared.
August 17th, 2007 at 4:37 pm#19 What a bizarre take.
August 17th, 2007 at 4:37 pmI suppose he liked the way he looked in his cheerleader uniform. And #19, are you conservathugs so far up Bush’s ass that you have to defend his fashion sense too? Good god how pathetic.
August 17th, 2007 at 4:38 pmRemember that great sitcom “Green Acres†in which Mr. Douglas would wear suits when he did farm work?

Yea but Bush reminds me more of Mr Haney.

Or Ebb.
August 17th, 2007 at 4:39 pmOh yes, LIL SERF, there is much to be worried about. I think this fashion nonsense is very much part of the overall danger. Bush is and always has been inadequate. He has the thin skin of a coward. But he also had the money and connections to force people to like him and fawn over him. Now he has the power of the most powerful nation and he is the same weak little coward that can’t stand it when people make fun of him.
He is concerned about his image of being weak. Like the old joke about the mute and the preacher and the stolen collection plate. “He says you don’t have the balls to pull the trigger!”
I am afraid that Bush will do something very, very stupid before he is thrown out of office, just to prove that he has the balls to push the button.

Hahaha! I was thinking more of Arnold Ziffle.
August 17th, 2007 at 4:40 pmI have that paper here in my recycle bin. It wasn’t just about Bush, there was fashion comments about LBJ and Reagan too.
It was in the Life and Arts section, not exactly front page. I’m surprised that someone even read that article to the President that ‘doesn’t read the papers’.

Arnold could turn on a TV all by himself, which is a hell of a lot more than this President, who must have aides produce a DVD of the day’s news for him to watch, can do.
Maybe Bush is like the Monroe Brothers, who were incompetent and could never finish any project they started. ‘Cept they were much more comical.

August 17th, 2007 at 5:15 pmBush was a *male cheerleader* in prep school/college. At least his father (hardly a paragon of macho) played baseball.
I don’t understand why the Dems haven’t worked the cheerleader angle as a response to the ridiculous haircut/fashion jibes thrown out at Gore, Kerry, Edwards, etc.

Camping on the prairie
Plays havoc with my hair.

Looking like a hero,
Six-gun at my side,
Chewing my tobacco.
Out on the horizon,

The people of Conneticut have nothing to be proud of considering their pathetic laws that protect children from child predators. George Bush being born in that state should be considered one of their prouder moments.
August 17th, 2007 at 5:57 pmHe’s unhappy about the way the article portrayed his lack of fashion sense… but typical GWB, he isn’t unhappy enough to do anything about it (aside from bullying people into ignoring it).
Remember, as the God-Emperor, GWB makes no mistakes. The mistake lies in all of us, instead.
August 17th, 2007 at 5:59 pmWonder if he dresses any different now than when he was snorting. Probably avoided darker clothes back then…. showed less overflow.
August 17th, 2007 at 6:11 pmBush has been quoted as saying he doesn’t read newspapers - which I always assumed was the reason why he seems so woefully underinformed on national and world issues. But lo and behold, it turns out he does take note of Harpers Magazine fashion commentary. Perhaps we can rephrase the Iraq war etc., in terms of “ill-fitting suits” and “fashion suicide” or something so he can understand what’s going on over there? Just a thought.

Commanders. Intense, charismatic leaders who set the tone, mobilize the troops and infuse an organization with energy without necessarily getting into details. (They cite George Bush, Carly Fiorina and Donald Trump as examples.)

Same deal with boy George.
2. Robert Caro’s book on Lyndon Johnson described the Texas Johnsons as men who could “strut sitting down.” LOL!
3. the idiot son thinks he’s staring in his own movie, but he’s a worse “acting president ” than Ronnie R.. In conclusion Bush is the worst kind of politician, he wanted to get elected to “be somebody”, not “do something.” Horrible Horrible human being.
Reagan was a much better president that Bush by many orders of magnitude.
When the budget got out of balance, Reagan raised taxes, Bush won’t.
When Lebanon turned bad, he got out. Bush won’t get out of Iraq.
Reagan had no foreign policy fiasco anywhere near as bad as Iraq.
There really is no comparison
August 18th, 2007 at 12:18 amHey, Dana Perino, how do you spell sychophant?
August 18th, 2007 at 12:28 amPS - Hey Rich, when you say “Reagan was a much better president that Bush by many orders of magnitude…”, you do know that Ron Jr never became President…
If you’re talking about his dad, the dottering old fool who tried to “trickle” us to death, he was just a lying old gasbag surrounded by evil puppeteers. Bush is just an evil, lying dumbass - and his puppeteers just as eveil and almost as dumb.
August 18th, 2007 at 12:35 amBush reads newspapers?
August 18th, 2007 at 12:48 amI just can’t understand why Deputy Secretary Dana Perino thought that Bush’s reaction to the article should be reported to the author. Is this a customary thing to do? If not, what in the world made Perino think the author cared about Georgie’s comfort level?
August 18th, 2007 at 1:13 amWhat is that all about? Is that a veiled threat?
Very odd.

“If you’re talking about his dad, the dottering old fool who tried to “trickle†us to death, he was just a lying old gasbag surrounded by evil puppeteers. Bush is just an evil, lying dumbass - and his puppeteers just as eveil and almost as dumb.”
I think your point of view risks understating just how bad Bush is. He is the most incompetent and prevaricating president ever. He is impervious to reality and the country has suffered as a result.
I am not arguing that Reagan was a good president, but he was nowhere near as bad as Bush. It’s not even close, and their respective records demonstrate that.
August 18th, 2007 at 1:18 amThat’s why Bush dresses in jeans, with a cowboy hat, and in casual clothing: because he’s humble and unassuming. Now, the Statesman reporter, Harper, obviously demeans everyone (read: most Americans) for dressing casually because to him, only Armani suits ……are what suit his leftarded tastes.
