Today is the last day George W. Bush will ever hold a job of any kind.
He is not qualified to work for any employer, run his own business, or anything useful. He is compulsorily retired. Maybe he should apply for Social Security Disability benefits.

1. Who in their right mind would hire a one man wrecking crew?

2. Funny. He never had gainful employment before he hijacked the presidency.

He failed at everything he tried to do. AWOL from the ANG; oil business and gig with the Rangers were bought and he sucked at both.

I don't get how anyone could have thought he'd be a successful president in looking at his history.

10. And he delegated most of the presidency to The Dick.
otherwise your post is perfect.

Oh, and his gig as Governor of Texas turned out to be a disaster as well -- once the bills came due. Sound familiar? He runs up a huge bill then bolts.

11. "looking at his history"
That's the point, that issue was nicely sidestepped at the time. Just imagine Texas, crippled from his governorship then kicked while down with the national economy he's leaving.

12. I don't have to imagine Texas, I live it.
He really screwed up our school system and it amazed me how Rove managed to sweep Bush's 'history' under the rug and pull off a successful svengali-like remake of Bush's image. All of it a giant superficial lie.

3. Like he will ever need to work again, the joke is on us actually.....
He robbed the Treasury dry, and he gets a pension of $200,000.00 per year.... :sarcasm: The poor guy, most of us should be so unlucky....

5. Shameful, too. He could be making pennies an hour as an inmate in prison.
Where he belongs.

6. Don't lose too much sleep over it. He stole enough to get by with Social Security Disability for
the mentally disabled.

8. He won't work OR "work" ever again. First of all, he'd be too afraid.

He is a force of nature. Worse than Katrina could ever be.

14. Same here
I just fear since so many of baseball's "leaders" still like Bush and consider him "one of them".


I love baseball with all my heart. I just don't have much regard for how that sport is run, and I wouldn't be surprised to see numbnuts end up in MLB in some capacity. Before everything crashed for him approval ratings wise there was talk of him becoming commisioner someday. Hopefully that'll never happen. :puke:
