  • inactive, on 12/08/2007, -38/+707Too bad he didn't get him on the phone. I would have paid to hear that conversation. The Icelandic kid probably speaks better English than Bush.
  • Napoleone, on 12/08/2007, -5/+629I wonder if Bush felt his privacy invaded...
  • Napoleone, on 12/08/2007, -11/+426He must have gotten it from watching Jenna Bush call her dad on the Ellen Show.
  • mrfreeziexp, on 12/08/2007, -8/+369After some number crunching, I think I've figured it out. See, 436-7439 is G E O R G E W, but it's also I DO PIEZ. That has to be him.
  • wishninja, on 12/08/2007, -7/+330"he would not say how he learned the top-secret number"
    Well, they haven't water-boarded him yet.
  • BrandonWicks, on 12/08/2007, -11/+312Dugg for the picture of Bush holding the phone upside down.
  • inactive, on 12/08/2007, -6/+278Time to invade Iceland!
  • rabidmonkey1, on 12/08/2007, -9/+255Hey, can we all get that number? I can think of a couple of things President Bush should hear....
  • treelovinhippie, on 12/08/2007, -10/+217I would have done the whole "George, this is God. I'm afraid I'm gonna have to get you to hang yourself. Yes George. See you've been the worst President in US history. So we're gonna have to let you go mmkay."
  • inactive, on 12/08/2007, -9/+216I bet it's 867-5309.
  • Tyrghast, on 12/08/2007, -1/+169Mr. President? Yeah this is the National Candy Department, and we were calling to let you know you've won a lifetime supply of Gummi Bears! First we'll need some way to confirm your identity, beginning with Social Security Number and credit cards...
  • nicholai, on 12/08/2007, -4/+129The fact that this caused a "security scare" is the best part. The SS must think Bush could be skull ***** over the phone.
  • jonnasi, on 12/08/2007, -2/+123This kid got this number on the internet about 4 years ago according to himself and just kept it on his SIM card for all this time. This has become a major news in Iceland. I am an Icelander myself, and to let you get an idea how small country this is; his father tought me math in college, and i've played football with this guy. Anyways, he just did it for the fun of it and he got a telephone meeting with Bush last monday, and gave the white house his own cellphone number. He just wanted to talk about world matters and invite him to come to Iceland.
    That said; We are all waiting for Bush to leave office. (Haven't heard a single person ever say a positive thing about Bush in whole Iceland)
  • Haidoken, on 12/08/2007, -0/+111exactly what kind of security scare? That telemarketers would get the number?
  • Dumbledorito, on 12/08/2007, -3/+92Jenna, I've got your number...

    (it's on every D.C. bathroom wall)
  • Braxo, on 12/08/2007, -3/+87I was thinking the same thing. I wonder what camera angles the Ellen show used when Jenna made the phone call.
  • reiner15, on 12/08/2007, -3/+86corded phone... what is this you speak of? only in hotel rooms? how facinating...
  • Zarokima, on 12/08/2007, -1/+77Indeed. This incident is a very clear indication that they hate our freedoms and are in league with terrorists.
  • unearth, on 12/08/2007, -1/+73He should be fine with it by his logic. I mean, he has nothing to hide. Right?
  • PATSCRU, on 12/08/2007, -1/+63oh man, that kid is ***** hilarious. "UH YEAH, i'm president of iceland, can you call me back pleasE?"
    priceless.
  • inactive, on 12/08/2007, -3/+62It's "it is" or "it's" and not "its". Your grammar isn't perfect - may I suggest that you STFU?
  • fluffyturtle, on 12/08/2007, -2/+60If they were smart they wouldn't store any numbers in the phone in case it was stolen.
  • benitojuarez, on 12/08/2007, -0/+55I just watched the linked video since I actually read the article. She didnt use her own personal phone. It was a corded phone like the kind you see in hotel rooms.
  • ninjagamer, on 12/08/2007, -0/+53http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIz-hCK6VL8

    ^footage from the show
  • inactive, on 12/08/2007, -1/+52oh and we have confirmed reports that they are building nuclear weapons.
  • j4nj1m3n3z, on 12/08/2007, -2/+51someone should have told Mike Jones to put this number in another music video.
  • Skooma714, on 12/08/2007, -5/+53Idk my bff president of Iceland?
  • inactive, on 12/08/2007, -8/+53He didn't get him on the phone. but imagine when Bush, in the oval office: "HEY! Prez of Iceland just called me, I should call him back!"
  • Albionshores, on 12/08/2007, -5/+47Damn Icelandic kid. Obviously plenty of smarts but no imagination. Bush is a man who believes God talks to him and that he is doing his will. So the kid pretends to be the Icelandic president???

    Is it just me that can see a missed opportunity here?
  • stretch611, on 12/08/2007, -2/+43"Why it's the AT-5000 Auto-Dialer. My very first patent. Aw, would you listen to the gibberish they've got you saying, it's sad and alarming..."
  • troye, on 12/08/2007, -0/+39Thanks dude, but I already have your mom's phone number.
  • dudefather, on 12/08/2007, -0/+38"yes, of course my refrigerator is running, why do you ask?"
  • jonnasi, on 12/08/2007, -0/+38And it was a call to a so-called "secured room", and he was sent between persons and was made answer questions f.x. about the president of Icelands birth date and when he took office, which he just looked up on Wiki while on the phone. Finally he got to speak with Bush's secretary, where he made the appointment.
  • troy1of2, on 12/08/2007, -1/+38Yeah, I'd like to get his reaction to 2 girls 1 cup.
  • harrisbradley, on 12/08/2007, -4/+41Hold on... Hey Laura!? Do we have Rosarita in our refridgerator?
  • inactive, on 12/08/2007, -2/+38They are only corded cuz people will steal'em.
  • limpits, on 12/08/2007, -1/+36I don't think so. I found this clip of when Jenna calls and I don't think he could have possibly figured it out from that since you can't see where on the keypad she is clicking and you can't hear the tones either.

  • inactive, on 12/08/2007, -1/+36You're being dugg down because it's the only thing us stupid Americans know how to do right
  • TLAKABM, on 12/08/2007, -0/+34Bush, wanting to make it something he could remember, made the nuclear launch codes the same as his cell number.
  • AresDiggs, on 12/08/2007, -1/+35thesmrt12004... by saying i wanna say i love you to my daughter he was basically saying it... think about it... what about all the actors when they win awards... they say "and i wanna say thank you to my manager" but they don't say "I wanna say thank you to my manager, so thank you manager" that would just sound stupid...

    We all hate bush... but stop trying to make something out of nothing.
  • jonnasi, on 12/08/2007, -0/+33No he got it from the internet some time ago. I have listened to the interviews with this kid, (yes i understand it, i am an Icelander). According to him, he has had this number on his cell phone for a long time. You can look up on icelandic national news pages: www.mbl.is and www.visir.is. This did happen.
  • GuacamoleSan, on 12/08/2007, -2/+34The President is the perfect prank-phone-call target, hes a total idiot so he'd go along with anything you said. "Mr. President...do you have...Prince Albert in a can.."
  • supermanred, on 12/08/2007, -12/+43No, hearing him speak and seeing the results of his actions makes him a retard in my eyes.

    I repeat, President Bush is the most retarded President of all time in any country ever known to history.
  • yabos, on 12/08/2007, -1/+291-800-MONKEY
  • mrfreeziexp, on 12/08/2007, -18/+46Oh he'll tell once they get him on the waterboard.
  • matts009, on 12/08/2007, -27/+55I think the better question is why doesn't Jenna have that number already put into her phone? I know I haven't typed in a number to call anyone I know in a long time, only for calling businesses and whatnot.
  • mrcoderga, on 12/08/2007, -2/+29The CIA just confessed that they destroyed the tapes that contained the president's cell phone number. Furthermore, do not be surprised if several Saudi princes and some Pakistani generals, in the next day or two, suddenly die of thirst or cosmetic surgery gone bad.
  • lennybird, on 12/08/2007, -1/+28Fish contain oil! ATTACK!
  • inactive, on 12/08/2007, -0/+26I almost fell out of my chair. Nice one Mr freeze!!!!
  • drgruney, on 12/08/2007, -0/+26Oh man! I love gummy bears!
