What is your favorite Bushism

[KitchenWitch]

"It's a time of sorrow and sadness when we lose a loss of life."—Washington, D.C., Dec. 21, 2004

[jackster]

1. Is our children learning....

or the one where he tells Karen that he doesn't like to negotiate with himself, especially in front of the cameras!

[KitchenWitch]

2. Another of my favorites

"I think war is a dangerous place."—Washington, D.C., May 7, 2003

[BootinUp]

3. Mine

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we." —George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Aug. 5, 2004 (Watch video clip or listen to audio)

5. Hard to beat that

So serious, so profound, so many words in a row.

[KitchenWitch]

6. many of the words are multisyllabic

[IADEMO2004]

10. W makes word sounds without reading July 2, 2001

"Well, it's an unimaginable honor to be the president during the Fourth of July of this country. It means what these words say, for starters. The great inalienable rights of our country. We're blessed with such values in America. And I - it's - I'm a proud man to be the nation based upon such wonderful values." -George W. Bush, visiting the Jefferson Memorial, Washington, D.C., July 2, 2001

This is when they chased everyone out and bussed in Americans for him to meet.

17. That one sums it all up for me.

If they make a statue of the idiot I think this quote ought to be enscribed at the base because it typifies him succinctly.


(And naturally, as soon as the asshole leaves office there will be a frenzy of activity in naming buildings and streets and all else after Shit-for-Brains.)

[LeftyDarthBrodie]

22. I love this Bushism so much

I put the bumper sticker on my car.

[terrya]

4. Mine, because it shows what an truly empty place his mind actually is:

"Families is where our nation finds hope, where wings take dream."

LaCrosse, Wisconsin, Oct. 18, 2000

[punpirate]

7. A toss-up between...

... "I know how hard it is to put food on your family." (Because he's never had that difficulty, it shows his actual disinterest in the subject.)

and: "... won't get fooled again." (Because this shows his inability to say, or think, even hypothetically, "shame on me.")

[the_spectator]

21. The "food on your family" one is my favorite -

It always makes me think, yeah, he's right, it is hard to put food on your family, especially the little ones -- they're such small targets, and they can move pretty fast!

[Shipwack]

8. "I heard there's rumors on the Internets...

...that we're going to have a draft."

[jmm]

9. Make the pie higher

MAKE THE PIE HIGHER
by George W. Bush

I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.
It's a world of madmen and uncertainty
and potential mental losses.

Rarely is the question asked
Is our children learning?
Will the highways of the Internet become more few?
How many hands have I shaked?

They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.
I know that the human being and the fish can coexist.
Families is where our nation finds hope, where our wings take dream.

Put food on your family!
Knock down the tollbooth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher! Make the pie higher!

[mcscajun]

11. I stick with "the classics"

the ones from the 2000 campaign.

Here are a few:

"Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning?" — Florence, S.C., Jan. 11, 2000

"Will the highways on the Internet become more few?" — Concord, N.H., Jan. 29, 2000

"We ought to make the pie higher." — South Carolina Republican Debate, Feb. 15, 2000

"The woman who knew that I had dyslexia — I never interviewed her." — Orange, Calif., Sept. 15, 2000

"Families is where our nation finds hope, where wings take dream." — LaCrosse, Wis., Oct. 18, 2000

And this one couldn't be more timely:

"This is what I'm good at. I like meeting people, my fellow citizens, I like interfacing with them."—Outside Pittsburgh, Sept. 8, 2000

Oh really, George? Then why not meet with Cindy, huh? HUH?

[SKKY]

12. His "dissertation" on Tribal Sovereignty always brings a tear to my eye...

...mostly from laughing so hard but occasionally from crying over the fact that our president is really, really dumb.

[BikeWriter]

13. The one where he forgot Pearl Harbor, Nagasaki, and Hiroshima.

I'm sure the Japanese were impressed.

"My trip to Asia begins here in Japan for an important reason. It begins here because for a century and a half now, America and Japan have formed one of the great and enduring alliances of modern times. From that alliance has come an era of peace in the Pacific." —George W. Bush, who apparently forgot about a little something called World War II, Tokyo, Feb. 18, 2002

[huskerlaw]

14. Gotta be

Too many OBGYNs aren't able to practice their love with women all across this country.

I mean, seriously. :dunce: :spray: :rofl:

[TK421]

15. THAT is my all-time favorite...

[TK421]

16. Too many to mention here, but here's one....

"I want to thank you for taking time out of your day to come and witness my hanging" - at the dedication of his portrait; Austin,Texas; Janurary 4, 2002:spray:

[leftofthedial]

18. fool me once . . .

[dajoki]

19. disassemble

"it seemed to me like some of their decisions on the word of — and the allegations — by people who were held in detention, people who hate America, people that had been trained in some instances to disassemble — that means not tell the truth." —George W. Bush, on an Amnesty International report on prisoner abuse at Guantanamo Bay, Washington, D.C., May 31, 2005 listen to clip http://politicalhumor.about.com/library/multimedia/bush_disassemble.mp3

[nytemare]

20. Teach a child to read, and him or her will be able to pass a literacy test

It's the ironic ones that make me laugh!

[FuzzySlippers]

23. "Too many OB-GYNs aren't able to practice their love

with women all over this country."


:rofl:

What is going throught that sick fuck's head?

[benny05]

24. That's my favorite

He didn't have a teleprompter..that's why he effed up.

Here's another one that seems approp at the moment:

"I promise you I will listen to what has been said here, even though I wasn't here."

They call him "Flipper, flipper, flipper"..
