Admit it folks. You really do miss George W. Bush.
Having a prez with a real brain is boring. This board is just not much fun anymore without our daily Bushism posts.

It's in our country's interests to find those who would do harm to us and get them out of harm's way.
--George W. Bush

Washington, DC

1. This is the one that always comes to mind...
"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we." —Washington, D.C., Aug. 5, 2004

2. Maybe, but I like taking personal offense at someone for not being perfect
There really are things I can honestly criticize President Obama for. But since I'm following the infallible dictates of My Conscience, I don't need to be honest.

8. That's OK. They just directed all their rage and fury
toward Obama. He's just as bad.

10. Not even close
We're angry because he is so much better than he's choosing to be. A very different kind of anger.

12. Tess, the irony is that most DU'ers were happier under
Bush and are angrier under Obama.

Anyhow, it's only a matter of time before all the people who vote for Democrats leave this site.

Yeah, I know--don't let the door hit us.

9. Bush Calls Last Decade ‘Tough Act to Follow’
Former President Looks Back on ‘Greaterest Decade

CRAWFORD, TX (The Borowitz Report) – The decade just past was “an awesome one in just about every way” and will be hard to top, according to former President George W. Bush.

In a new interview with the former president, Mr. Bush reflected on the highlights of what he believes will be known as “The Greaterest Decade.”

“We won the war on terror in Iraq and Afghanistan, and we made the dream of home ownership available to millions of Americans who couldn’t afford their monthly payments,” he said. “That’s going to be a tough act to follow.”

Mr. Bush also said that of all his accomplishments over the past decade, he was proudest of “improving America’s standing around the world.”

“Anywhere you go, people love America,” he said. “I see this in Crawford every day.”

As for his successor, President Barack Obama, he had some simple advice: “Never forget where you came from, which, in your case, is Kenya.”

11. Most DU'ers think Obama=Bush and Democrat=Republican.
Proof:

Now they even think Maddow=Hannity.

So, yeah most DU'ers probably would be happy to see a Republican like Bush or Palin in office. At least they'd be entertained.
