Your favourite Bush stupidity quote.

[sirdanrhodes]

[Supernovajake]

"They never stop thinking of ways to harm our country, and neither do we".

I hate all Bush quotes. It scares the hell out of me that a man who says shit like that could be our president for eight years...

"Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice... well... better not fool me again."

 

[EnzoHonda]

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

When he said this, I nearly lost it. But seriously, the fodder he gave Jon Stewart and other comedians got me through some dark, lonely nights.

"And they have no disregard for human life." (regarding Afghan Fighters)

"We're going to, we'll be sending a person on the ground there pretty soon to help implement the malaria initiative, and that initiative will mean spreading nets and insecticides throughout the country so that we can see a reduction in death of young children that, a death that we can cure."

"All I can tell you is when the governor calls, I answer his phone."

"I fully understand those who say you can't win this thing militarily. That's exactly what the United States military says, that you can't win this military."

I got a lot of Ph.D.-types and smart people around me who come into the Oval Office and say, 'Mr. President, here's what's on my mind.' And I listen carefully to their advice. But having gathered the device, I decide, you know, I say, 'This is what we're going to do.'"

"I heard somebody say, 'Where's (Nelson) Mandela?' Well, Mandela's dead. Because Saddam killed all the Mandelas."

"As John Howard accurately noted when he went to thank the Austrian troops there last year..." (John Howard was the Prime minister of Australia at the time)

Yep.

I'm pretty impressive.

Well I feel kinda bad for cutting it down in it's prime.
So here's Reagan!

 

[ElephantGuts]

I have a whole poster of these sitting in my room. I never looked at it or put it up. Let me go find one of them:

"I'm honored to shake the hand of a brave Iraqi citizen who had his hand cut off by Saddam Hussein."

 

[Acervusvlos]

He's out of office. We got him out of office. SHUT UP AND LET HIM DIE.

Jesus, I don't like how he led either, but honestly, he's gone.

 

[Jamanticus]

He's out of office. We got him out of office. SHUT UP AND LET HIM DIE.

Jesus, I don't like how he led either, but honestly, he's gone.

He's not gone for another several months.

Obama's not getting inaugurated until January 20, you know.

It matters so very little. In those few months, nothing can happen. He's packing his things to come back to Texas.

 

[TomNook]

HE'S GONE! GET OVER IT!

 

[Jamanticus]

It matters so very little. In those few months, nothing can happen. He's packing his things to come back to Texas.

Ah, but do you remember what a certain early president did the night before the next one was inaugurated? Appointed an entirely new Supreme Court.

Therefore, I think Bush can still do quite a bit.

Hopefully he does, so we don't have to go through another FDR.

I just loved how in a picture where everyone's singing the US anthem everyone has their hand on their hearts. Except for Bush, who seems to have his hand on his stomach.

He wont. He may be a TERRIBLE leader, but he's not a dick, I've met the guy (He spoke in some highschools earlier in the 2000's), He has good intentions, but can't pull them off. Whatever. We'll deal with it.
