That was very obviously just sped up and slowed down to make him sound drunk. plus the laughter is a different quality than the speech.

Agreed. It supports me theory that if you mess with the speed of what Bush is saying, people will think that he's drunk. To be fair, it would probably make anyone sound drunk, but with Bush it's much less obvious that it's been edited.

Meh, I don't see what the big deal is, just because he's the president doesn't mean he has to live like hermit in the white house.

So you don't mind that your President is an alchoholic? If Tony Blair did that over here he'd be forced to retire.

It's probably fake anyway.

Just because he had a few too many drinks doesn't make him an alcoholic and if he were an alcoholic it wouldn't automatically make him a bad leader, look at Churchill.

looks real, but i think he has some sense not to be drunk in public, but he still might do it.

**RZZZA** · April 18, 2006, 06:59 PM

Lol, I dunno if that is real, but I like to believe that it is.

Whats so bad about drunk politicians anyway?

Do I have to post links of various Russian politicians drunk beyond all coherentness?

:sign_wtf:

I doubt it is real, but honestly it wouldn't suprise me.

Well, looking back at our presidents somewhat recent past, he had some issues with alcohol and even further back with much less acceptable chemicals. It would be bad news if he's now 'off the wagon'. Relapsing alcoholics can be less than consistant people.

I just hope his 'crisp decisions' and 'steadfastness' aren't bolstered behind the scenes with special coffee and red bull cocktails.

Don't you know? Bush is a born again christian, from out of the bottle and into God's hands. Bush talks to jesus all the time, why would he allow him to stray from his steadfast path? Jesus wouldnt allow such a thing, ever, and apparently Jesus also converses with Bush so I'm sure he's telling Bush the same thing. Worry not, youre in good hands.

edit-I'm watching too much stephen colbert and reading too much maddox.

It's fake, of course.

There is actually standard software that can make everybody sound drunk.
I have already seen it on two seperate TV-shows, with several different sources.

I think there is even a setting on the Sound-Blaster X-Fi that can trun people "drunk" in real time.
That would be fun if you also have a TV-tuner card (like me) because then you can watch your favourite TV show with everybody sounding like they are drunk.

I have a SB Audigy2, and it can also do several funny effects on my TV-card, like "chipmunk" or turning males into females and visa-versa.

Erik, just wondering. Can you change talks in games to drunk or is it only for video and audio files/programs.

I would just like to hear those RTW battle speeches that way
