Before you start discussing the relevance of this article as news: see also Talk:US President George W. Bush caught driving without a seatbelt.

Damn, I was all ready to delete this. :-) --Brian McNeil / talk 08:50, 25 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

News?

[edit]

Next thing you know, Wikinews is going to have an article on how Bush left the toilet seat up after using the bathroom. This is rediculous. 72.8.96.166 09:29, 25 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

What ridiculous is that he wiped it off with a bare hand and then didn't wash it ;) DragonFire1024 09:31, 25 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
Haha. How about Bush forgets to lock his front door; stays unlocked all night or U.S. president Bush forgets to flush the toilet. These are boring articles. We should be focusing on original reporting and eyewitness reporting, not a bird defecating on the U.S. president. FellowWikiNewsie 20:01, 26 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Title?

[edit]

There is no mention of the press corps in the article.--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 12:08, 25 May 2007 (UTC)Reply


If it were up to me, I'd change the title of this article to something more inciteful-- such as "In a Change of Events, it Now Lands on Bush Instead of Spewing from His Mouth" - LonB

How did we end up with such an insipid title on what is a piece of Wackynews? --Brian McNeil / talk 14:47, 25 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
Well, change it back and add the press corps reaction, because now it makes no sense. If we want to be humorous, let's do it right.--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 15:18, 25 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
I saw the video, this was really unsignificant, and I didn't hear any laughter from the reporters. Moreover, it is not mentioned in the article.--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 11:02, 26 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Wrong News Date

[edit]

If this is going to be in Wikinews it should be under the appropriate date (May 24th, 2007) 206.211.143.175 15:41, 25 May 2007 (UTC)WorthingReply

It was first reported here today, that's the date we go with because if we backdate we risk including information that came to light after the event date. --Brian McNeil / talk 16:04, 25 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Re: Wrong News Date

[edit]

I thought that I had seen this article listed under May 24th. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

No problem, this nuthouse takes some getting used to. ;-) --Brian McNeil / talk 16:32, 25 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
