Actually Bush cannot take credit fr "nukular". President Eisenhower started that one. It somehow seems to be a very Republican way of pronouncing nuclear as several Republicans pronounce it that way and it has become a shibboleth.

This is all I could think of too. At least he knows how to read See Spot Run (or whatever he was reading to a kindergarten class when he heard the report of the September 11, 2001, attacks).

I believe it was "My Pet Goat." Hey, at least he didn't misspell "potato" in front of a bunch of grade-schoolers like Dan Quayle did.

He has a clever way of increasing the length of his speeches: leaving a huge gap between each phrase as he tries to work out what he's supposed to be saying next.

Why is everyone still so obsessed with a president who's about to leave office?
You guys seem more interested in the old president than the guy about to be our new one. :lol:

Because I'm still pissed about the 2000 election.

And I'm still pissed about the Media railroad of Howard Dean in 2004.

I'm still pissed that a President lost the popular vote and the electoral college still exists.

I'm still pissed at all the jobs that have gone overseas.

I'm still pissed at the deficit spending to line the pockets of military contractors and oil companies.

I'm still pissed that the tax burden was shifted so far onto the middle class, weakening the very foundations of the middle class and threatening to topple the work done by unions to gain a decent standard of living for the working man.

I'm still pissed that the Republican party panders to the religious right wing in order to try and achieve a majority so they can put their destructive robber baron economic policies in place to bleed this country dry. I'm pissed that this worked for 8 years.

I'm pissed that a coke snorting frat boy is the "leader of the free world"

I'm pissed that a draft dodger attacked the military record of someone with a purple heart.

I'm pissed that Yale let him graduate.

I seriously believe Bush was trying his damndest to cause armageddon, so that he could be taken up in the rapture.

He's the anti-christ.

I'm pissed that schools like Yale can admit complete morons like Bush purely because of family connections, reject highly qualified applicants who don't fit into their predefined geographical, racial, and socioeconomic quotas, then still be taken seriously and even regarded with great admiration.

Thats the funniest post I have seen in ages

I think you forgot more than 250,000 Iraqi civilian deaths.

He's great humour material. JibJab vidoes come to my mind.

He hasn't tried to invade Europe. That was nice of him.

He hasn't launched nukes at atheist countries - nice of him too.

A thoroughly nice man. :roll:

he says he believes in the free market, which i agree with.

sadly, though, his government has been more that of corporatism rather than really allowing a free market.
