What If George W. Bush had ... made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics, would you have approved? If George W. Bush had given Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon Brown had given him a thoughtful and historically significant gift, would you have approved? If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod containing videos of his speeches, would you have thought this embarrassingly narcissistic and tacky? If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, would you have approved? If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the non-existent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a minor slip? If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current on their income taxes, would you have approved? If George W. Bush had been so Spanish illiterate as to refer to “Cinco de Cuatro” in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the Fifth of May (Cinco de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again, would you have winced in embarrassment? If George W. Bush had misspelled the word advice would you have hammered him for it for years like Dan Quayle and potato as “proof” of what a dunce he is? If George W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a single tree on “Earth Day”, would you have concluded he’s a hypocrite? If George W. Bush’s administration had okayed Air Force One flying low over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown Manhattan causing widespread panic, would you have wondered whether they actually “get” what happened on 9-11? If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference, would you have laughed and said this is more proof of how he is inept he is on his own and is really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes? If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood victims throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than in New Orleans, would you want it made into a major ongoing political issue with claims of racism and incompetence? If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved? If George W. Bush had proposed to double the national debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you have approved? If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the debt again within 10 years, would you have approved? So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant and impressive? Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done all this in 10 weeks -- so you'll have three years and nine-and-a-half months to come up with an answer. |

What if Obama had given a Foreign Female Head of State a back rub, would you have approved? What if Obama put a horse breeder in charge of disaster response and then told the guy he did a heck of a job when he clearly did not, would you have approved? |

Not for nothing, but I never heard you complain when Bush kissed the Saudi prince and held hands with him, skipping through a garden. |

Maybe that's because most of those are the nitpicky-type complaints of a mother-in-law. |

Bush did that, he just didn't bother to propose it first. Motherfucker just went ahead and did it. |

Try adding something of substance instead of being the self-appointed hall monitor. |

Imagine if they had a half a brain between them. I know that is asking to much! |

How about you lead by example? If you haven't noticed, I have started several interesting threads recently, not to mention the daily Cartoon of the Day threads. I am pulling my weight- the question is are you, Brother Klecko?

Nope. I'm working, ya know. Just got approved for a few of those non-existent stimulus created projects that will employ hundreds of construction workers in Buffalo and NYC and provide affordable housing for people with physical disabilities. Do you really want me to roll out my 250+ Bush mistake list? |

It's not that Bush didn't make mistakes, he did. It's just that the outrage, the caterwauling, the gnashing of teeth from the left that took place when Bush made a mistake, is nonexistent when Boy Blunder does. |

Oh, I know...isn't it ironic? But, you do realize that your doing the same exact thing, right? You've started plenty of threads about Obama's multitude of mistakes but never started one about the Bush administration. We are all the same
