Bush tells CNN: "You've got to say I'm a little wiser. My knowledge of the world is more profound."

Bush and first lady Laura Bush will head to Dallas after they leave Washington to live in home the president has yet to see firsthand. He plans to open up an institute at Southern Methodist University and will write a book he hopes will present a fuller picture of his presidency than perhaps some of his critics have portrayed.

"I would like to share my experiences, and I think it's going to be important for people to remember what the actual history of my presidency was all about. History tends to shift very rapidly people forget what the environment in which the decisions were made," he said.

Crowley, who started covering the president when he was Texas governor in 1998, asked whether he was still the same person he was back then.

"I didn't change my basic values," Bush said. "I loved my wife then. I love her now. I realize my most important job was to be a loving father, and it is still my most important job. I believed in an almighty then my belief has been strengthened. You've got to say I'm a little wiser. My knowledge of the world is more profound."

4. I am soooooo sick of the grand Bush/Cheney 'Let's rewrite history' tour, I could puke! Get these
idiots off of my TV, radio, and internet and send them either to die in the wilds of Texas or to the Hague!

That's all we need to know. This imbecilic asshole has never

9. more narcissism
You've got to say I'm a little wiser. My knowledge of the world is more profound."

It's always about him. How he sees the world.

Nobody cares about an effing moron's world view.

10. More profound in the sense that two grains of rice is more than one; but it still ain't a meal.
What a dick.

16. No, you're still a clueless putz
You're no wiser today than you were 8, 12, 24 years ago. Just go away, and here's hoping justice and karma meet up with you very soon. Butthead.

You still believe you haven't destroyed everything you've touched.

You still see yourself as a success.

You're still in fucking office.

And the world still hates you.

25. The distortion out of all of them leaving Washington is fucking profound,
not his fucking knowledge. Maybe his LACK of knowledge is profound. I'd agree with that! Oh God, he disgusts me.
