Bush Accidently Insults a Blind Man

[xxnyhc69]

the guy is obviously not blind... 1. bush knows his name but doesnt remember he is blind? 2. why the notebook?

[Punxsyjumper]

A chip off of the old blockhead. Like Father, like son. Both with their head up their ass.

[sankitadurollia]

asshole bush

[TheOfficialiKON]

Give Bush some slack.. how is he suppose to know he was blind.. if the same thing happened to Obama no one would give a fuck about it.. In my opinion both Bush and Obama suck as presidents.

[LeVintique]

@TheOfficialiKON Difference is... Obama is intelligent and would know this guy is blind... excuse me, didn't Bush call the reporter out by his first name? I'm sure it wasn't deliberate but just the same, another shameful event in the Bush Admin.. oh Lord, thank you for Obama.. I can see the sunshine again!

[TheOfficialiKON]

@LeVintique Fuck Obama he's just as Bad as bush; just better kept of himself in the Public.

[TurnToJesus1]

@LeVintique LOL, that "sunshine" is the blinding, burning light of betrayel. Obama is the same as Bush - A Puppet President.

[bennoyes05]

funny, but is he really blind?

[Smokhypetersen]

I think it was a joke

[iTzKiNG1]

fuck bush!!!

[atraversy]

I thought this was the onion... wow

[levlevi]

Hey I know Bush is dumb as hell but i think he realy did not know that thus man was blind

[returnoftheramble]

I wish you would have listened to me before trying to kill me, sir. I was very busy looking for a job in your crappy economy. As far as threatening, Campbell, you should have known that all I do is bark. Now I would like to be a medical experiment.

[returnoftheramble]

why do they air this?

[returnoftheramble]

If he's working with media, that man needs glass eyes, so it's not a total hit.

[rickrusselljr]

although a president deserves respect during a press conference, for him to demand it undermines the idea of public servitude

[cookjoshua]

what makes people think that this man is blind?



[3bitha]

That guy isn't blind.

[bigcasey1995]

fuck u haters, i would of made fun of him to cause you can't tell he's blind.

[Nikon05]

@bigcasey1995 you make fun of everyone who wears shades?? haha, maybe you have social problems

[bigcasey1995]

@Nikon05 HELL YA

[napalmvoododaddy]

bush , man ! what a fuckin tool !!

[MrPapawill]

bush is my hero, i dont care if the economy of America has down but bush is my new hero.because he just wiped the terrorist ass.

[toxshox]

@MrPapawill I wish has someone to wipe my ass. Make me feel all regal and stuff....lol

[Kane491194]

@MrPapawill yea he pampered them with money and funded terrorist activities and killed thousands of us citizens and ruined economy and spyd on us, what a GREAT president.

[externalpower]

we should have elected the shoe guy.

[tonym144]

@externalpower Why would we want someone who can't hit the broad side of a barn? You want to see something interesting? Check out when Bush threw out the first pitch for a baseball game compared to Obama. No comparison. Obama didn't even come close.

[externalpower]

@tonym144 so you are a big fan of idiots. bush ruined the country and he never did one good thing. 

[MusicSportsPolitics]

@tonym144 ....baseball...really?

[Hamiltoncameron]

When I first saw this video I didn't know the man was blind. Which made for a funny joke.

When he said "It depends on your perspective" I thought he was suggesting that George Bush had his head up his ass.

[kris9138]

i would have thrown my shoe at him >:D

[Steveo2395]

He's not blind.

[kbplaya123]

@Steveo2395 how do u know hes not blind

[mattsmoski37]

Well he reached out and grabed the microphone and didn't fumble, he's not blind you that think he is are blind.

[86am]

@mattsmoski37 Peter Wallsten is a blind reporter

[spats67]

He is a fucking cunt. The sooner he dies the happier the world will be. Hopefully Iran will nuke his fucking Texas ranch

[MrDroowl]

He looks at the microphone before he grabs it. I doubt hes blind. And it really does seem like Bush knows him.

[prescott911]

no where does anyone say that this man is blind. but bush does call on "peter", so he obviously knows who he is, so if he is blind bush knowing him on a first name basis would know this or he isnt blind at all and dabraclowcell is just spreading lies. i think its the latter

[banditBoy943777]

@prescott911 ummm...this is Bush you're talking about.

[MrCoBreezy]

u know people complain about how presidents suck ass, but those people wouldnt know WTF to do either.

[aha45]

How is it an insult if he didn't know the guy was blind?

[JimFromWaterford]

He's not blind.

[daywalker3x3]

PRESIDENT BUSH...REALLY, WHO VOTED FOR THIS CLOWN?

[AlienLabelOnEtsy]

Thumbs up if you like humor with your politics. Check it out an awesome new iPhone app that pokes fun at politics, it's called The Bitter App.

[jwl5102]

well if you think bush was stupid I beat your really proud of our current president...

[DeV0Ti0N]

Bush and Obama are both stupid. Could have been worse though.  Kerry could have been elected.

[graffitilover8]

i wanna smoke a J with bush... He seems chill.

[dewycox212]

thank God he's not our president anymore

[TrueLight55]

It actually seems here like Bush knows this reporter...the way he is referring to him so easily by name...which indicates he would know whether he is or is not blind. That is my deduction. Not defending Bush...just using logic.

[BigBry49]

Bush what an idiot

[OldWriter205]

President Bush addressed him by first name. He knew the reporter and who says he is blind? If you Bush bashers want to keep picking on him, you are running out of time. When will you start picking on your new luv, the Obamasan, who opens his mouth and puts his foot in it waaaaay before checking the facts, as evidenced so often since he accidentally got elected.

[TheLoveOfChocolate]

Hahahahaha....He laughs funny xD He bobs his shoulders.

[LandOfSteam]

Routine mistake anyone could have made. Your hate is not founded in this issue. It is founded in a misguided notion that you need leaders to make it through life and Bush was not giving you enough of something-probably money.

[SharkyRoll]

he is clearly not blind

[mapache11]

@SharkyRoll ..the reporter is legally blind. Do some research before making comments dumbass.

Bush did not know he was wearing the shades to prevent his eye disease from progressing. He never told Bush...and he was not offended by what Bush said.

[SharkyRoll]

@mapache11 So your saying hes not blind?

[mapache11]

@SharkyRoll ..you are either illiterate or trolling. Read the first 5 words of my comment again numbnuts

[dannyd1572]

What a clown. Thanks for 8 God awful years George!

[MrWinebar]

Just for the record, the man is blind, bush knows his name because in front of the president at every press conference on the podium is a map of all the seats with names and credentials.

look closely just before bush says his name he looks down

[DamnGoodOJ]

what an idiot. whoever made this video is completely ignorant. bush wouldnt have called him by his name if he didnt know him? and if he did know he was blind which he isnt he wouldnt have said that

[TheFourBroskateers]

and the perspective of everyone is that bush ALWAYS seems to be in need of shades, what with him staring into the sun constantly... ;D

[sadbutsandman91]

@TheFourBroskateers no Obama is the worst U.S. president

[Eldrene101]

I still don't see how people are getting the idea the guy is blind. He glances down at the mic when it is handed to him, and Bush obviously knows the person well enough that it is a first name basis.

I'm not saying Bush was the best president in the world, but he wasn't completely without some tact... some.

[dtkunz]

if you're going to insult someone, do it accurately.

Seriously, this is about as responsible as CNN's reporting on Iraq.  Semper Fi.

[Jojjo450]

"Hehe, Touché."

GWB <3

[flickapix]

O God how we need bush back. Obama is ass fucking our nation one thrust at a time.

[jbaker88]

@flickapix Replace a mediocre President with the one of the worst Presidents in U.S. history?

[RockAfella73]

@jbaker88 Clinton was more then a mediocre president but i agree bush is the worst in history.

[fLowieSTAR]

Peter Wallsten is the guy with the sunglasses. Victim of Stargardt's Disease. A form of macular degeneration that can be slowed "by wearing UV-protective sunglasses and avoiding exposure to bright light."

[lolhahalol2]

hahaha he owned bush:P:P

[elbeto805]

He isnt blind he knew where the mic was stupid

[RuniDjurhuus]

This man ain't blind, bush is a fucked up poor president

[joruinc]

why do you think this guy is blind?!?

[googlewhores]

That guy should of said im blind to make bush look stupid

[BamaChris]

He is not blind, dummy.

[ichfindkein]

you dont need bush back, u need to be killed... NOW!

fucking moron

[Abercrombiespanker]

1. he looked at the man who was handing him the mic.

2. he grabbed the mic

3. he looked at bush

4. the maker of this video is a dumb ass and we need bush again instead of the current president

[James09854]

shut up you stupid cunt

[armyjay36]

wmd's - hmmmm - i actualy was in iraq, with the infantry, and found no wmd's - bush was and im sure to this day - full of shit - its all bout the money - c'mon, you think he cares about the people in the middle east ? look how he treated the people during the katrina chaos

[Abercrombiespanker]

@armyjay36 You're the one who joined american forces so dont whine that you were sent there

[armyjay36]

i wasnt complaining about going to iraq, i was stating how much i hate bush.

[Abercrombiespanker]

so you were just dandy going to iraq, you just dont like bush besides the war and you going into it? im not trying to bash you i respect you for joining the american forces and fighting with all my heart

[MrPheasant69]

the fact that bush was elected makes us americans look stupid no wonder no one wants 2 help us in the war

[KingDingaLing090]

We dont need their help.

Every single mainstream democrat except for Obama said to go in to Iraq because Saddam had WMD's

Obama is making us look 100 times worse than Bush because he has no backbone and he disrespects the country all over the world.

No one respects that. However they will smile back and take advantage of the situation real quick.

[espChris93]

amen, at least bush wasnt trying to be the "cool president" and his wife wasnt clamoring for attention

[TCGameGuides]

@MrPheasant69 SHUT THE FUCK UP. im sick of all the people hating on bush. He wasnt that bad of a freaking president and all you people want to bash him. GET OFF THE MANS DICK.

[MrPheasant69]

@TCGameGuides fuck you just look at the som bitch he sucked ass, 8 years this country was in a shit hole and now were movin back up so fuck you and the other 2 bush surporters out there

[TCGameGuides]

@MrPheasant69 The country was only in bad shape for two years out of his six year term. And if you knew anything youd understand that the reason the country went down the shitter was because of the house loan crisis and the stock market. It was the same thing for the Great depression, the stock markets caused it not the president.

[WatchMyAwesomeVideos]

Also, the fact that we've been in this war for so long.

The first 8 years accomplished next to nothing & now we're just now trying now that we've changed presidents.

I think Bush is bad but it's mainly because he wasn't prepared & he was being told by Cheney what to do & we all know how stupid Cheney is!

[3ngLishLioN]

@MrPheasant69 Excuse me...im sure we have lost 300 soldiers and counting

[MrPheasant69]

@3ngLishLioN do you have any fuckin idea about what your talkin about

[3ngLishLioN]

@MrPheasant69 fkin mug stfu,we have lost 300 soldiers in your phoney fkin war prik

[MrPheasant69]

@3ngLishLioN wow big deal 300 hundred we lost thousands in helping you in ww2 so 300 isnt that big a deal

[05yousufm]

@MrPheasant69 why should anyone help u, u ripped off china, u screw over our banks, u let mexicans immigrate, you fucking have fat people who refuse to have health benefits, they cant even follow rules without breaking your own rules, punishment of death sentence is fucking daft as americans are not god and last but not least u lot are the reason who gave ISLAM a bad name and that would never be repaired.

[MrPheasant69]

@05yousufm why helped the world we won ww2 for france,england,ect without america youd be talking in german and your god would be hitler so maybe thats why we need help idk but it seems like were kicking alot of ass without your help so maybe we dont need it............................­....

[IWantDaveKast]

@MrPheasant69

oh but Joe Biden telling a guy in a wheel chair to stand up wasn't dumb right?

stupid liberal fuck

[MrPheasant69]

@IWantDaveKast ok how bout this fuck joe biden,fuck george bush, and most importantly fuck you if you got a problem keep it to yourself no one really cares about your pathetic little life  -i just played ball with ass clown

[MrPheasant69]

@IWantDaveKast ok how bout this fuck joe biden,fuck george bush, and most importantly fuck you if you got a problem keep it to yourself no one really cares about your pathetic little life  -i just played ball with ass clown

[MrPheasant69]

@IWantDaveKast how about this fuck joe biden,fuck goerge W bush, and most importantly fuck you. no one cares about what you think so dont bother wasting your time

[nilofc]

@MrPheasant69 Obama is much much more stupid without the Teleprompter. How can you not speak with Kindergarten without the freakin' Teleprompters?

[Ascendancy25]

@MrPheasant69 you got a lot of help

[MrPheasant69]

@Ascendancy25 what do you mean man/chick

[Ascendancy25]

@MrPheasant69 you got enough help in the war.

[harrisonhc1]

@MrPheasant69 you are stupid. Do you know how many countries are actually helping fight the war on terror willingly? to name a few there is Canada, England, Israel, Iraq,etc.

[MrPheasant69]

@harrisonhc1 google that?? yeah ha thought....and reallly iraq not really were providin protection for them so...we are helpin them and isreal kinda had to for once again protection america is a body guard for small weak countries

[dark954RR]

@MrPheasant69

there is a huge difference between war and murder-genoside...

[lookejr]

The fact that bush later apologized to the guy is pretty good proof that he is blind

[pizzakid770]

Who in the world said he is blind?

You are a moron dude. It for sure doesn't seem like he is blind.

[ultraextreme1]

You should understand what he said,.. 'it depends on your perspective'. That doesn't mean he is blind. Besides, he grabs the mic and looks at that dumb ass...

[kalpal67]

bushes back was probably toward the sun so i agree

[MrMeat31]

bush obviously has met the guy before and im sure hed know if he was blind...

[nessark111]

if the guy is blind why is he looking at bushs direction and why would he not tell him hes blind.

[docsdaname2000]

that guy isnt blind

[fatman1001]

yes he is

[cbraat27]

i don't like bush, but how was he supposed to know?

[LadiiSoShy]

Bush was funny, man. Good sense of humor. :o)

[BigBadHouseToy]

they guy's not blind he looks at the mic before he grabs it.

[oakr8r]

Bush didn't know he had a condition...

democrats(.)com/node/9262

Calm down.

[mateah]

what condition, the guy isnt even blind first he looks at the mic before he grabs it, second he is holding some papers in his hand wich he obviusly CAN read

[oakr8r]

Yeah I noticed that too, then I read up about it.

He isn't blind, he's just really sensitive to light.

I put a link.

[paulinovalerio]

you do have a point! But you have to see how quick Bush was to scold that man for wearing glasses, his comment back fired .

[kbaldeo]

The man has a right to wear shades if he chosses. Bush's "perspective" will differ from this guy's. In his view, he needed the shades... plain and simple!

[mohamadalikazi]

bush isnt at fault here... he's saying what makes sense... but that of course depends a lot whether he already knew that guy was blind or not... if he didnt i don blame bush here

[spanky3425]

He was so blind that you will notice the pen and paper in his hand. 99%of you on here are retards.

[R10jeeh]

pen and paper belonged to the guy next to him

[spanky3425]

yeah the guy in the empty seat,your a fuck tard

[joshua83082]

he mentioned joe wilson towards the end of the vid. that's Mr. Joe "i called obama a liar" wilson.

[dogthebountyhunter33]

He was blind.

"I guess that depends on your perspective."

The reporter has class and did not bash Bush back.

-The Dog

[decaDBZ]

are you actually dog the bounty hunter?

[shawbros]

@dogthebountyhunter33

Not saying he should have bashed him, but I think he should have been a little more blunt about it. (No hinting, just outright telling him that he's blind)

[blacksabbathgnr098]

@dogthebountyhunter33 There's no evidence that he is blind. There is no dog to be seen anywhere in the video. If anything, the guy was either self conscious about how he looks (while being on TV) or was trying to cover up some bloodshot eyes (thus the"perspective" remark).

[toxic2k7]

@dogthebountyhunter33 ''bash bush back'' i must say thats a toungue twister lol

[Arjakuru]

lol I don't think Bush realized what was going on. Only realized that he was doing something wrong and decided to shut up about it

[SoHardCorr]

Google "bush blind reporter".

There's a million news stories on it. He was blind. Do some research

[j1mmyarts]

he wasn't even blind morons

[oooOTotOooo]

i dont think he is blind....

[naoufelb123]

thats not an insult

[speedysacked]

He isnt blind you dumbfucks lmaooo

people make up the stupidest shit just to make bush look bad..

Like oh he has sunglasses on...so he MUST be blind..

No

Damn people like that are annoying as fuck

[tdrap19]

who is this guy and how do they know hes blind? he doesnt look blind to me

[washingtoncapitalsss]

so fucking what

[DavidSlagter]

Everybody who says bush is an idiot because he is insulting a blind man, is an idiot. He isn't blind. Does he maby need the glasses for some disease like daeclipse03 said then yes ofcourse that can be true and possibly is the truth but which retard hires a blind reporter? If you think about it all then it CAN all makes sence IF you have the ability to think logical.

[Gordonalways1]

I like Bush better than Obama. Obama is like Bush if Bush were 5x worse

[abhish1984]

can't agree more....obama is like bush on steroids !!

[mjbehri]

I've seen this before it is a little funny but I've never heard anyone say the reporter is blind,seems like your just making it out to be worse then it is.

[VollgasHero]

yea this guy is not blind! he knows hiim by name you dumb fuck!

[ScarTissue111907]

The President is given a list of people who will be giving questions prior to the conference.

[VollgasHero]

oh i see. lol well still i dont think he is blind.

[television07]

what a fucking douche

[Str0ngSide]

That guy isnt blind

[daeclipse03]

President George W Bush, has apologised for poking fun at a reporter for wearing sunglasses without realising they were needed for vision loss. Wallsten still needs the sunglasses because he has Stargardt's disease, a form of macular degeneration that causes progressive vision loss.The condition causes Wallsten to be sensitive to glare and even on a cloudy day, can cause pain and increase the loss of sight Bush called his mobile phone later in the day to apologise

Google it!

[roofdoubleflip]

bush = dumb = monkey

[fkthsh]

I'm not a big fan of Bush but I don't think he is not smart. He is smarter than most people. He is just a terrible speaker and he doesn't like to study issues. I don't think he was suited to be president, maybe some type of business man, maybe. He is a emotional guy more than an intellectual person. At the end of his presidency I think he was pretty sick of it and so were the people of the USA. It's funny I think Obama is the opposite, very intellectual but doesn't take charge.

[Str0ngSide]

True. Obama is a Damn PUSSY

[cancanbiker]

ahhh,do you have any idea how much bush made during his presidency,i respect you dont like bush but he would be the president for eternity if he could keep things as corrupt as possible,like do jack shit about opium in afghanistan while he is basicly funding terrorsim on his own. barrack comes in and starts dealing with the issue. obama takes charge,actualy doing something good for the states.

[JBlueMast]

I believe Bush was a business guy who ran a business into the ground...

[irishman31994]

this guy's not blind at all. dummy

[Matu1]

Blind? you must be fucking stupid to tell that hes blind, you can see he looks at the microphone while he grabs it and he knows very well those reporters.

[itsgaythatyourgay]

Bush is one of those few people where you can literally see the lack of intelligence in his eyes when he speaks

[GabsterRox912]

he's not blind...LOL

[ChurchillTea]

He is blind; he apologized to him personally after he realized what had happened. He felt bad. You can google it. I"m sure there's a story on it somewhere.

[FrothySoda]

fucking idiot
