Can't anyone say SOMTHING good about George W. Bush?

[JailForBush]

Surely that lying, murderous, treasonous corporate whore has SOME redeeming features. There must be some group of Americans other than corporate officials he has helped. At least ONE good bill must have been passed by his regime.

Stop whining for just a few minutes and help me think of something GOOD to say about Il Dunce!

[Webster Green]

1. He is a good Nazi!

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

[AromaticSocks]

29. How clever

How many people have been sent to the ovens under his rule? Millions?

[FDRrocks]

30. plenty at Guantanamo...

lacking any democratic process.

[Webster Green]

34. give chimpy a little time

He'll catch up!

[ima_sinnic]

46. educate yourself: how did that murderous regime get off the ground?

the comparisons to Nazis have to do with the context of Germany in the 1930s, not Hitler's specific crime of the Holocaust. The German sheeple lapped up all of Hitler's nationalistic propaganda and phony claims of a terrorist threat--just like the American people do now.

[are_we_united_yet]

50. go away

[Robbien]

82. The weekend crew is back

They love guns and bullets and bushes of all kinds, do they not?

[are_we_united_yet]

103. yes

[POed_Ex_Repub]

2. He's a one term president...

Which in his case is one term too many... But still better than two. ;-)

[corporatewhore]

6. I saw a great button from poppys time: Abort bush in the first term

Like father Like Son

[ktampa1]

97. another great one - "Lesbians against Bush"

[LiberalFighter]

104. How about "Lesbians LOVE Bush"

Have signs with that message posted wherever he goes.
Have that message blasted over the air wherever he travels.

You think that would irritate the hell out of bush to the point that he would go ballistic?

[LTR]

3. He's a great president...

...for the CEOs and multi-millionaires of this country.

Other than that, he's a lump of shit.

[corporatewhore]

4. He inspired people to become politically active

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

5. Yes...thanks goodness he survived that pretzel

or Cheney would be president

[POed_Ex_Repub]

11. You mean he isn't NOW?

:P

[LiberalFighter]

105. I hope Democrats stocked up on pretzels.

And for their good friends they have instructions on how to eat pretzels.

While for people like bush... make sure their pretzels are given a special treatment of dog licking.

[economic justice]

7. Something GOOD about Bush???

He looks right at home.....at the ranch in Crawford, Texas!

[Elwood P Dowd]

8. He has perfected the word "uh"

at press conferences. He is excellent at stealing from the
poor and giving to the rich. He cooks a mean plastic turkey.
He is a great poster boy for the learning disabled being the
first mentally retarded President in US history.

[Valerie5555]

9. He probably no doubt HATES Broccoli

like father like son

[Wapsie B]

10. Someday

he will actually leave the White House for good.

[flaminbats]

12. He won in the Electoral College...

and did this successfully even while losing most of the popular votes.

This is a rare political accomplishment IMHO, and the one which shall stand out most in history books..even 40 or 50 years from now.

[Bunny]

41. Actually, he did not win in the electoral college.

SCOTUS stopped the vote counting, remember? So we don't actually know that he won Florida's electoral votes. He WAS APPOINTED to POTUS - HE WON NOTHING!!!

[kentuck]

67. If he had permitted the votes to be counted in Florida....

and then if he had the most votes, he could say he won the electoral vote. As it is, no.

[flaminbats]

73. let me repeat myself...

I stated that shrub won most of the Electoral College votes, even while losing the popular vote..a rare political accomplishment!

[Bunny]

74. And let me repeat myself.

He did not win in the electoral college, and he DID NOT win "most" of the electoral college votes. You are simply wrong, but feel free to repeat yourself as long as it takes to make you feel better :eyes:

[flaminbats]

75. He didn't?

Do you mean that the Selectoral College delegates never voted, and shrub did not get 271 of the Electoral Votes?

[Bunny]

76. It all goes back to Florida, and I think you know this.

n/t

[flaminbats]

79. Sure...

I was asked to offer praise for something shrub has accomplished, and my simple response is he became President even while losing the popular vote. This doesn't mean that I think he fairly won Florida or that the Electoral College shouldn't be abolished.

I am praising him for succeeding in taking advantage of our very flawed system, most who win in the Electoral College usually win the majority or plurality of the popular votes. But Shrub did this successfully without out winning those votes both nationwide and in Florida.

Again, a rare accomplishment, before shrub it was last done by Hayes in 1876 when three states cast their Electoral Votes against their popular votes.

[LiberalFighter]

106. He was successful only because he had Supreme Court in his pocket

[Dookus]

13. Most days...

he manages to stay mostly upright.

[TahitiNut]

14. I could.

But then my tongue would rot and fall out for lying. (My nose is big enough, thank you.)

[JasonDeter]

15. Good riddens. eom

[nadinbrzezinski]

16. He is a uniter, hear me out

he has energized oposition from people who have never cared about
politics before....

The backlash has begun folks

[POed_Ex_Repub]

17. He makes the 2004 decision really, really, easy...

ABB

[camero]

18. No can do. Did it yesterday.

Two days in a row would make me :puke:

[Nevernose]

19. I like his upcoming "return to space" thing

Even if he doesn't fund it -- like Reagan and Bush I promised more exploration and didn't some through. I also don't care if it's some kind of PNAC plot to control the solar system, or some kind of competition with China...I think it's a damned fine idea, regardless of his motivations

[Hubert Flottz]

55. He could volunteer for the first one way trip to Mars , who'd care?

I can think of something good about his Momma! 'She never had twins like he did'!

[peacebuzzard]

20. Plenty of room for spiritual growth.....

from the twisted, gnarled and mangled skeleton shell of a soul he might still have. Lying slimey puke.

[readmylips]

21. He's a Uniter, not a Divider....

He United the world against us.

[cliss]

22. OK, you ran this thread 2 days ago and I flat out refused.

Now, 2 days later, I'm trying real hard.

Oh -- what do they say each human body is worth? I mean as far as minerals and such, for fertilizer and all that.

I think it's $1.50 in today's money.

That's what he's worth. Fertilizer.

[LiberalFighter]

107. A gardener or farmer might not think high quality fertilizer

[imax2268]

23. He's a good liar...

well...let me think about that one...

[FDRrocks]

24. DO NOT CALL LIST, loud and clear..

[conservdem]

62. Good point, I agree with this one.

[LiberalFighter]

108. He only signed it... Congress introduced and passed

Indiana has a better "Do Not Call" law

[Virgil]

25. He is the best at being the worst president ever.

He set a new standard for being a terrible president that is going to be hard to beat.

[Solly Mack]

26. Yes, I can't

:hi:

[readmylips]

27. He Loves Terra...

his mistress.

[patricia92243]

32. He has a mistress???

[scarlet_owl]

28. Okay.

"Something good about George W. Bush". There, I said it. :)

[booley]

31. almost thought he did good once..

when i heard he was going to use a tax cut for hydrogen cars or some such.

At the very least, he was supposed to doing something to boost research into hydrogen cars.
it's been a whiel so i forget..especially at 2 in the morning.

Then I found out hat the hydrogen would have come from fossil fuels, thus totally missing the point of usign hydrogen in the first place.

Now I hear he wants a base on the moon, which I would love to see. but knowing him, it's so he can put nukes up there or some similar bull shit.

even when he sems to do good, he ends up doing bad. even his dad and Nixon I can think of at least one thing that was done right. Shrub... nothing.

[patricia92243]

33. He creates jobs - for other countries, that is.

[readmylips]

35. Boosh created 1000 jobs for 'mericans...

and 3mil jobs for his foreign cronies.

[Kinkistyle]

36. he makes for great comedy.

He is probably the most unintentionally hilarious world leader in the history of mankind. I mean who can forget that stupid "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice... ya can't get fooled" comment, or that classic video of him falling off the Segway.

[Sandpiper]

37. His frequent verbal gaffes

Make for GOOD comedy.

"Rarely is the question asked, is our children learning."

GOOD stuff. lol

[rman]

38. why is this question asked so often the last few days?

-

[NV1962]

39. Makes a great firehydrant, dogs love him too

Plus he is a stellar endorsement for the pro-happy faces lobby: mention the word "Bush" and everybody smirks, grins or cackles out loud!

[0rganism]

40. He appoints women and minorities to cabinet positions

There. An undisputable good thing. Not only does it give blacks, hispanics, asians, and women the opportunity to share the political limelight, it reveals that many of them are every bit as prone to fascist tendencies as the white male stereotype. He teaches a valuable lesson in this respect.

[NoPasaran]

42. He probably didn't mean to drop his dog

Sorry, that's the best I can do

[Q]

43. This is the third thread I've seen encouraging us to 'say something good'.

...about Bush*. This is insulting in that you're asking us to find 'good' things about those who oppress us.

- It's akin to starting a thread asking Germans to say something good about Hitler.

- Tasteless.

[klyon]

45. at least the third

and still no serious, positive, real accomplishment claimed - sad
How does he remain at 50%?

KL

[klyon]

44. no

.
KL

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

47. For an idiot, he doesn't drool much.

He also proves that even inarticulate, unread, bigoted, failed capitalist, Texan goobers, can become president of this great nation.

[devinsgram]

48. Plain and simple, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[baldguy]

49. He likes dogs.

oops. wrong pic. How's this?

[Hubert Flottz]

56. LMAO!

Something nise Hummmmm, Shrub has a very smart dog that does not want to be seen with him in public!

The NCOs even think the dog is nice, so they salute Barney for catching and bringing in AWOLS and Evil Crooks!

[are_we_united_yet]

51. Freepers will like this one...

He ain't no Bill Clinton!

[snippy]

58. He knows how to salute with dignity and honor?

[are_we_united_yet]

102. He he

good one

[indepat]

52. He has two lovely daughters

[Gin]

53. Something good about George Bush......did that help?

:)

[Iverson]

54. He is a great cautionary tale.

He serves as an effective warning about the dangers of those who have no empathy. The merely narcissistic can regard the deranged and incurious sociopathy and, if they are awake, become frightened back into civil society.

[opihimoimoi]

57. Nothing good about this evil person who is being used by more evil people

above him


He is a puppet who slobbers; someone PLease get him a drool cup quickly.

[ncrainbowgrrl]

59. He's so easy to laugh at...

Seriously. Where would David Letterman, Jay Leno and Jon Stewart be without the influx of great material that this president provides?

[conservdem]

60. IMO he handled the aftermath of 9/11 pretty well. no sarcasm.

He's also not nearly as dumb as many here seem to think.

[leesa]

85. You aren't serious are you? Given that he knew all about 9-11

before it happened, I guess reading a story about a goat for 20 minutes while people were dying is a great job.

[conservdem]

90. I am serious. Please note, however, I did not say "great job."

I think he did a good job in the days and weeks that followed. But, I also think he and his admin should have done more beforehand to prevent it from occurring.

When you say "he knew all about 9-11 before it happened" do you actually mean he specifically knew planes would be flown into the WTC that day? As you can tell, I do not believe that.

[Sophree]

96. If you mean

He did a good job exploiting a national tragedy and the murder of 3000 Americans for partisan political gain, then yeah, I guess he did a "good job."

Way to fight terrorism? TAX CUTS! Against any of my policies? You're "with the terrorists."

[mitchum]

61. He will make very good food for worms

[Mikimouse]

63. Nem, Nyet, Non, No, and Nein!

EVER!

[guynamedjoe]

64. Hmmm.... Let's see.....

No terrorist attacks in U.S. since 9/11.

Freed Afghanistan from Taliban.

Freed Iraq from Hussein.

Unemployment at 4% here in Indiana.

Tax cuts, my paychecks fatter and I look to get an extra grand in tax return.

Business is up at my place of business as we are working 7 days a week and the lowest paid can take home about a 1000 a paycheck.

Libya is getting out of the WMD business.


I have some disagreements with his domestic policies, but, I still pretty much like the guy.

[Mikimouse]

66. OK, I'll bite...

No terrorist attacks in U.S. since 9/11. I hardly attribute that to the faux cowboy in the WH; Big talk hardly makes for a safer environment.

Freed Afghanistan from Taliban. After threatening them with a carpet of bombs, if they didn't accept the US 'carpet of gold', re: the Unocal pipeline. The attack on the Afghans really had nothing to do with the Taliban in the first place (except for their hedging on the pipeline). They are making a pretty strong comback as well, and the people of Afghanistan seem to be no better off than they were prior to the US invasion.

Freed Iraq from Hussein. And put an end to all of the resistance, no doubt; through an illegal war; because of lies about WMD; because of oil interests; because he hasn't done anything of substance to justify his election. Oh yea, before I forget, the Iraqis LOVE us.

Unemployment at 4% here in Indiana. Does that count the people who have dropped off the radar; those who gave up looking or ran out of benefits? How about those who moved to other locations?

Tax cuts, my paychecks fatter and I look to get an extra grand in tax return. Instant gratification has it down side as well; by this time next year, we'll see where your state and local taxes are, then we'll talk.

Business is up at my place of business as we are working 7 days a week and the lowest paid can take home about a 1000 a paycheck.

Libya is getting out of the WMD business. And making overtures to the EU, thank goodness, about membership and trading rights. Plus, they never had WMDs, just the plans and some materials, nothing completed and would have been years before anything came to fruition.

[leesa]

87. Let's see. The Taliban control Afghanistan again, Iraq is the prisoner

of the US after an illegal invasion against an unarmed, UN compliant Iraq, Unemployment is probably 10% if not more, can't tell because all the people he threw off the unemployment roles are no longer counted, tax cut? what a joke..it was a loan, Libya never had WMD, we have them and we murder people daily with them.

Grow up and wise up. Turn off Faux and you might learn something. Your hero is a treasonous murderer.

[number6]

115. to g.n. joe ...

"No terrorist attacks in U.S. since 9/11." (wrong)
>several pipe bombs by local terrorists
>and so what terrorism increased in other parts of the world

"Freed Afghanistan from Taliban."
>no the U.S. military did that temporarily

"Freed Iraq from Hussein."
>removed the CIA installed dictator, Iraq is not free

"Unemployment at 4% here in Indiana." >wow an exception to the rest
of the country

"Tax cuts, my paychecks fatter and I look to get an extra grand in tax return." >check again dude

"Business is up at my place of business as we are working 7 days a week and the lowest paid can take home about a 1000 a paycheck."

> no days off eh, over time ? , oops bu$h canceled that ...

"Libya is getting out of the WMD business."

>never was in business. but appreciates the bribe

[onecitizen]

65. I don't think you'll find........

what you're looking for here. I know I'm here simply because I found no redeeming qualities in this man. And, oh yeah, HE STOLE THE ELECTION!!!

[heidiho]

68. He Teaches Our Youth ThatYou Can Use Cocaine,

be an alcoholic, lay around on your drunken ass until you are 40,
have your daddy buy you some businesses to fail and STILL BECOME
PRESIDENT of the United States through your daddy's connections.

America is so great - it's true that anyone can become President.
Even a miserable failure like George W. Bush.

[lostnfound]

69. He has killed fewer people than Hitler did (so far, at least). n/t

[MacCovern]

78. He's killed fewer people than Ted Kennedy so far...

at least directly anyway.

[leesa]

88. Ted Kennedy killed tens of thousands of people?

Did I miss something?

[MacCovern]

89. Teddy one directly, GW hundreds indirectly

GW is responsible for the deaths of hundreds indirectly thru his
policies, but Ted Kennedy did let a woman, Mary Jo Kopechne, die
in his car as he wandered around wondering what to do in order to save
his political future. There was an air pocket in the car and Kopechne suffocated thanks to Ted's inaction.

[greekspeak]

70. There are some non-minimum wage jobs that have not left the U.S.

He also hasn't appointed Pat Robertson as Ponitfex Maximus. That's a good thing too.

[lostnfound]

71. He's good at being a bad example for future presidents? n/t

[drdigi420]

72. he will die someday

and feed some plants

[MacCovern]

77. Kept Texas safe from VC during the Vietnam War

In the entirety GW's stint as a guard pilot, the Vietnamese army never attacked Texas.

[leyton]

80. Two things only

1) Do not call list.
2) And having a bold vision re: the space program, going to the moon and Mars.

I was going to say his handling of Afghanistan and his quick ouster of the Taliban, but he changed his focus to Iraq too quickly.

[flaminbats]

81. I thought these were supposed to be good things being listed...

accomplishments which require some effort. ;)

[conservdem]

92. I generally agee with what you wrote, but I want to hear more about

the costs risks and benefits about a putting a woman and/or man on Mars. We should pobaly go back to the moon for a while and develope the tech. first.

[kysrsoze]

100. Agreed. Only problem here is I don't believe he means it...

Look where all the funding for African AIDS assistance went. Poof! Though I think we do need to fund planetary exploration (within budgetary reason), this is probably just another lie or has military implications.

[populistmom]

83. He's loyal to his friends

All his oil buddies can sure count on * to be loyal and protect their interests. If I were a billionaire (without a soul), I know I'd be happy to be his friend.

[Lisa]

84. as someone said earlier here -- he has cute dogs

And a nice longhorned cow, given to him by his staff (although I doubt he spends much time looking after her!)

[dawgman]

86. He wears great suits!!

[lumpy]

91. Can't anyone say something good bout Geo. W. Bush ?

Uhhhhh uhhhhhhhhh.No

[fortyfeetunder]

93. Stupidity

At least he demonstrates his stupidity!

[carols]

94. He has sequestered himself behind barbed wire and armed guards

It will make him easier to lock up when we take back our country. We can just turn the WH into a federal penitentiary. He'll never know the difference.

This is also good because it means I don't have to actually look at him or listen to him in person. If I hear his stomach-churning little voice in my house, I can just turn him off. Thank God he isn't my neighbor or something a lot closer to home where I would actually have to look at his sorry ass.
Carol

[VOX]

95. He chokes well on pretzels.

:evilgrin:

[Lindacooks]

98. He can't live forever;

that's good.

[kysrsoze]

99. He can probably drink us all under the table

[Sophree]

101. His daughters can drink us all under the table. n/t

n/t

[pasadenaboy]

109. he signed the do not call registry legislation

I do give him credit for that.

[tinrobot]

110. Comedians love him....

Where would The Daily Show be without him?

[info being]

111. I guess his dog is alright

[Postman]

112. He's good for nothing

eom

[Lone_Wolf_Moderate]

113. I'll get heat for this,

but the war in Afghanistan worked out pretty well, except for the fact that we didn't find Osama. We did crush the Taliban, though.

[number6]

114. good for population control (lots of death)

:+
