In President Bush's defense, he may not have known that Peter Wallsten is legally blind. And Wallsten said he was not offended by the President's remarks. But the President still looks pretty silly when he chuckles at the end of this video.

    The condition causes Wallsten to be sensitive to glare and even on a cloudy day, can cause pain and increase the loss of sight.

    Wallsten said Bush called his cell phone later in the day to apologize and tell him that he didn't know he had the disease.

    Wallsten said he interrupted and told the president that no apology was necessary and that he didn't feel offended since he hadn't told anyone at the White House about his condition.

    "He said, 'I needle you guys out of affection,' " Wallsten said. "I said, 'I understand that, but I don't want you to treat me any differently because of this.' "

    Wallsten said the president said he would not treat him differently, so Wallsten encouraged him to "needle away."

    "He said, 'I will. Next time I'll just use a different needle,' " Wallsten said.

    Wearing sunglasses at a press meeting is like wearing a hat indoors. It's not proper.

  • His staff let him down

    Yeah President bush looks real bad here. but if you ever watched any of his press conferences you'd know that he's always ribbing the reporters in a good natured way.Someone around him should have mentioned that this man was legally blind. As for you detractors..say what you want..History will prove that Bush was right and you people turned your back on your country when it need you the most.

    • Prove him RIGHT?

      What exactly has Bush been doing that has been right? I'm a patriot in every sense of the word and a self-proclaimed REPUBLICAN who thinks he's a jackass. Did he say some insensitive things to this blund guy? Yes. Does that make him a moron? No. Listen to some other speeches of his... he's already proven to be a moron at BEST.

      That Saddam had WMD's but either destroyed them or moved them before the war to embarrass the USA and Bush
      That Saddam and Al-Queda had a working relationship
      That one tool of the insurgents was useful idiots like you and the MSM who bash bush at every turn

  • Liberal

    Hopefully before anymore people ignorant of the very political concept of liberal start using it as a slur on people tired of the way things are in our government.
    Please read below...

    Liberalism: philosophy or movement that has as its aim the development of individual freedom. Because the concepts of liberty or freedom change in different historical periods the specific programs of liberalism also change. The final aim of liberalism, however, remains fixed, as does its characteristic belief not only in essential human goodness but also in human rationality. Liberalism assumes that people, having a rational intellect, have the ability to recognize problems and solve them and thus can achieve systematic improvement in the human condition. Often opposed to liberalism is the doctrine of conservatism, which, simply stated, supports the maintenance of the status quo. Liberalism, which seeks what it considers to be improvement or progress, necessarily desires to change the existing order.

    Liberal is not a dirty word.
    Free your mind..

  • Don't you people understand

    That al-Queda is behind all the negativity towards bush...it is their duty to disrupt our govt. in any way neccessary. I'm pretty sure they can blow up anything else they want with no problem. Hell i can blow something up with no problem (not saying i would) and the reason they have not is because their busy making bush look like a moron by doing continuously causing mayhem to our soldiers in order to make the American people upset with the administration and siding against the president...He is the president, it's not a fuckin easy job...you run the country and then explain to America why we all ended up homeless due to you're unintelligent econimic choices.

  • C'mon People

    John 8:7

    But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her."

    Read this and think about it.

    • Bush allowed a FAKE REPORTER to ask him ...

      No reporter can have access to the White House without being cleared by the Bush admin and security (so Bush should have known about Wallsten). HOWEVER the Bush admin allowed a totally unaccredited "reporter" into the press corp for 2 years. This guy did not even use his real name! The fake reporter used the alias Jeff Gannon to get into the white house. All of this so that Bush would avoid TOUGH Questions from real reporters. Wow, how low can Bush stoop?

      Go to www.Salon.com & Google and search for JEFF GANNON for full story.
