6. I have to disagree even with that
He's a falling-down drunk. His liver is shot. His skintone is awful. His eyes are red most of the time, his hair is disheveled. He's in about as good a physical condition as a drunk on the street.

18. Well yeah, he's the very definition of meathead jock
But if we all jogged every morning like he did, or did at least 30 min of excersize...we'd all be in great shape.

He never should have been prez - Chairman of Physical Ed yes, prez no...

"But, Mr. President, that's the rare and endangered Texas brush laurel."
"Heh-heh. Heh-heh. That German Chancellorette is gonna barbecue me a pig with that brush. Heh-heh. Heh-heh."

12. for 4 years on my show I've been challenging Republicks
to give me ONE example of something Bush has done that has resulted in greater good for America. They write filthy e-mails and spout off with their calls but NEVER has one of them made even a decent attempt to answer the challenge.

15. He has singlehanedly (well, almostsinglehandedly)
reinvigorated the Democratic Party. It wasn't too long ago that we were hearing about the death of the Democratic Party, then Bush came along and voila!

16. I have one! I have one!
Bush protested the beastly treatment of Aung San Suu Kyi by the Myanmar government.

Uh, for a second example ...

Give me some time.

29. According to American Conservative Magazine...
before the 2004 election, if Bush won he would be such a disaster for conservatives that they would be out of power for at least two generations. After November 2004, it was the only thing that cheered me up a bit.
So he hasn't been a total loss.

31. Nattering nabobs of negativity. He's done plenty!
He's blocked his pappy's papers from public scrutiny.
He's paid off every corporate block that supported him.
He singlehandedly destroyed the Constitution, ie., spying on citizens by the military, signing statements and torture.
He's destroyed the election process.
He's destroyed the middle class, and when the other shoe drops, he's destroyed the currency.
He's destroyed international law.
He's turned us into the United Soviet States of America by implementing Pravda, the gulag and the KGB.

Perhaps his most stupendous achievement has been to completely destroy the reputation that America earned in WWII.

The man will go down in history.

39. Well, he does turn oxygen into carbon dioxide...
This benefits house plants...

Beyond that, I'm at a loss for anything else he has done that could be consider a "good thing."
