Monkey’s Last Press Conference
Perhaps someday a writer will be able to find words to describe
the Weltanschauung swirling around in the toilet bowl
that passes for this crazy turd’s "mind."



There’s not other way to explain his denial of reality.

Case in point: The following example of how he viewed the “overstated” stress and strain of pretzeldentin’.

From the International Herald Tribune:



Monday, January 12, 2009

Following is the transcript of President George W. Bush's news conference, as provided by the White House.


Q Mr. President (sic), you spoke of the moment that the responsibility of the office would hit Barack Obama. The world is a far different place than it was when it hit you. When do you think he's going to feel the full impact? And what, if anything, have you and the other Presidents shared with him about the effects of the sometimes isolation, the so-called bubble of the office?

THE PRESIDENT (sic) : Yes, that's a great question. He'll -- he will feel the effects the minute he walks in the Oval Office. At least, that's when I felt. I don't know when he's going -- he may feel it the minute he's -- gets sworn in. And the minute I got sworn in, I started thinking about the speech. (Laughter.) And so -- but he's a better speech-maker than me, so he'll be able to -- he'll be able to -- I don't know how he's going to feel. All I know is he's going to feel it. There will be a moment when he feels it.

I have never felt isolated and I don't think he will. One reason he won't feel isolated is because he's got a fabulous family and he cares a lot about his family. That's evident from my discussions with him. He'll be -- he's a 45-second commute away from a great wife and two little girls that love him dearly.

I believe this -- the phrase "burdens of the office" is overstated. You know, it's kind of like, why me? Oh, the burdens, you know. Why did the financial collapse have to happen on my watch? It's just -- it's pathetic, isn't it, self-pity. And I don't believe that President-Elect Obama will be full of self-pity. He will find -- you know, your -- the people that don't like you, the critics, they're pretty predictable. Sometimes the biggest disappointments will come from your so-called friends. And there will be disappointments, I promise you. He'll be disappointed. On the other hand, the job is so exciting and so profound that the disappointments will be clearly, you know, a minor irritant compared to the --

Q It was never the "loneliest office in the world" for you?

THE PRESIDENT (sic): No, not for me. We had a -- people -- we -- I had a fabulous team around me of highly dedicated, smart, capable people, and we had fun. I tell people that, you know, some days happy, some days not so happy, every day has been joyous. And people, they say, I just don't believe it to be the case. Well, it is the case. Even in the darkest moments of Iraq, you know, there was -- and every day when I was reading the reports about soldiers losing their lives, no question there was a lot of emotion, but also there was times where we could be light-hearted and support each other.

And I built a team of really capable people who were there not to serve me, or there to serve the Republicans, they were there to serve the country. And President-Elect Obama will find, as he makes these tough calls and tough decisions, that he'll be supported by a lot of really good people that care -- care about the country, as well.

Gee. That’s the White House version. Who knows what the actual transcript was.

No matter what the official spin, the real point of yesterday's farewell presser is crystal clear. To emerge from an eight-year run as “president” and think the stress is “overrated,” what I remember hearing from Smirko the Clown’s last dog-and-pony, shows something big as plain as day. The little turd from Crawford has never worked a day in his life.

Here’s a smattering of what the “experts” think:

FACT CHECK: In final word, Bush gilds his record

Ignoramus et Ignoramibus

The Last Bush Press Conference: Marvelously Out of Touch

Idiot.

Bush On Katrina: ‘Don’t Tell Me The Federal Response Was Slow’

Pyscho.



It is my sincere hope he has at least one more public press conference. That would be when the little turd from Crawford goes blabbing for forgiveness before starting his sentence as the first former "president" to be convicted of treason and other high crimes.

If Smirko had worked even a single day in his pretzelduncey,
it would be a historic personal achievement.
