Yep. If GWB hadn’t fiddle-f*****d away the last few years, we wouldn’t have an Obama presidency.

I love this President. My only regret was that his administration didn’t fight harder in terms of PR and communications. It would have made a big difference.

16. A true 20%er!
Scary motherfucker. Money says no kids (or divorced misogynist with kids kept far away), never served in the military, and not iota of knowledge of how economics (micro, macro, or international) work.

2. They'd think his stool was "interesting"
Got everything they wanted but Roe vs Wade overturned...and still they can't accept that they and their heroes are monumental failures.

10. here ya go
President Bush always a gentleman.
He wants Hamas to stop firing rockets into Israel. Israel has a right to defend itself.

************

Yep. If GWB hadn’t fiddle-f*****d away the last few years, we wouldn’t have an Obama presidency.

************

I’m still smitten & feel very proud of Pres Bush.


*************

You’re gonna be longing to have him back. If you think Obammy is going to be better, you deserve what you’re gonna get.


**************

I love this President. My only regret was that his administration didn’t fight harder in terms of PR and communications. It would have made a big difference.

**************

Immigration again...”I should have proposed immigration reform instead of social security reform after the 04 election...”

Basically another Bush conference of misjoined thoughts put into a monotone response.

Taking no questions on pardons...tells me those border guys better expect to do their time, this jerk is not going to pardon them.

****************

Thank you for serving President Bush. I respect you more today than the four other times I had voted for you.

This TEXAN welcomes you and Mrs. Bush back home.

I applaud your service to our country.

*************

11. oh man
I didn't see it, but the liveblogger who is covering the Bush Presser on Wonkette says that the Fox anchor said that people are "Writing in asking where this president has been for the past 8 years, and want a DVD of this presser". Ummm......

12. What do the stars stand for in "fiddle-f*****d"? Faddled? Fubbled? For some reason that cracks me
up. Shouldn't each star stand for a letter? Why am I worrying about this? I'm going to go play Tetris.

21. his administration didn’t fight harder in terms of PR
Imagine if they fought harder on PR. I mean his whole presidency was one big PR campaign. Bushes whole presidency was a series of photo opts, usually to gloss over some huge giant mistake that had just happened. I can't imagine what more they could do. Heck they even let fake gay prostitutes into their press conferences to ask fake PR questions. I think what this thread in FR means is that PR works on about 18 % of the population all the time. The rest of the population eventually stops buying a crappy product, no matter how hard they try to sell it to them.
