Churchill quotes and bush
Though Churchill was a warmonger and imperialist, you have to give him credit for his quick wit. Here are two which can apply to Bush:
Never have so few done so much to destroy so many and
when he was running against Atlee for whom he had nothing but contempt and lost he said " Atlee was driven to 10 downing street and when it stopped no one got out (change that to bush and white house)

3. You can modify this one...
"Atlee is a modest man; but then he has much to be modest about."

Churchill's arguements with the socialist Lady Astor were legendary...
"Winston, if I were married to you I'd poison your tea!"
"Lady, if I were married to you, I'd DRINK it!"

Winston showed up in parliment drunk...
"Winston, you're drunk!"
"And Lady Astor, you are ugly. But on the morrow, I shall be sober."

Churchill did not win all of these exchanges, but I only remember these two...

Atlee is a sheep in wolf's clothing.

Sort of like tough guy wannabe, bring em on, Bush*--the AWOL SOB.
