#1 Only a piece of faggot turd like Andrew Sullivan could show any kind of sour grapes about this particular gesture of giving the obligatory victory butt slap.

#2 Actually, the player asked for a butt slap and got a tap on her lower back instead.

Check the facts before accepting anti-Bush agitprop from the likes of Sullivan.

#3 I'm not a big fan of Althouse but sometimes she's got a pretty good take. Bush hasn't done anything to get upset or angry about here no matter how bad one's BDS is. That some people are upset is, quite simply, ridiculous.

I've been very unhappy with Bush over certain issues the last few years, particularly immigration, but that's politics. I think he's personally a fine man, a good husband and a good father. I'd be proud to shake his hand and I'll be forever grateful for the dignity he managed to restore to the office of POTUS after the derisive contempt his predecessor brought it.

I hope he has a quiet, peaceful and enjoyable retirement full of honors and accolades. In years to come he's going to look better and better, especially if the U.S. elects the Democrat in 2008.

#4 If Bush needs a stand-in, I'll be glad to officiate.

#5 The IOC was probaby figuring that making beach volleyball an olympic event would be worth an extra $50 million or so to the television sponsors.

So, is jello wrestling the next olympic event?

#10 Sullivan is just upset because Bush is about to touch a girl.

#11 My first thought was that he was going to goose her.

#12 It looks like he's making a shadow rabbit on her.

#13 I'd certainly cast something on her back given the chance.

#14 Sad thing is the previous president would have had a 20 minute grope under the guise of a congratulatory pat and the media would have put a positive spin on it if they paid attention at all.

Whereas, had President Bush gotten even close to her "bathing suit area" the MSM would have (litteraly) made a Federal case out of it (as the twerp in the article did).

#15 He's having fun, that's all. But I find the loud rock music they play during games, totally annoying. Can it!
