That would be George W. Bush taking credit for 'helping' capture Osama Bin Laden.

4. Someone posted on another board that this was an "American victory"
Not an Obama victory. Obama just happened to be in office at the time.

I complimented her ability to parrot right wing talking points and suggested she have a nice cup of tea.

5. Why I only claim that beer and travel money is due.
From a smear wrongly done years ago.

The rest is just fascinating.

And I don't think Bush is claiming credit, some are trying to assign credit to that since he is a symbol for a type of thought process on foreign and national policy ideologies.

11. Thanks for the chuckle




Sounds like a "dicho" from south of the border.

"Como una mosca en la cola del buey reclamando credito por arar el campo?" or something like that.

:toast:

16. agreed, at the risk of flames
I really respect Bush's behaviour since his 8 years of unqualified, led by the nose governing....he really does have much more class than the former president, dick cheney. George was absolutely useless and I believe totally wasted and hired a staff of rumsfelds and dicks to do the thinking for him, but at least he knows when to shut up and when to pray people forget...
