  • WafflePirate, on 01/09/2009, -2/+5Sigh. Poor guy seems desperate to ensure that people remember him for doing something that didn't damage America's reputation, education, image or economy.

  • Batfishy, on 01/09/2009, -1/+2Okay. That's not the same though. Fixing is change.

  • Sonan, on 01/09/2009, -1/+2I'll go home tonight and tell my daughter she's been liberated. She'll be so thrilled.
  • AlaskaLoneWolf, on 01/09/2009, -1/+2Obviously Bush feels bad, because he's being left behind... In a way, it brings to mind another idiot who thought too highly of himself and liked to live in a delusional dreamworld:

    President Bush, you're no liberator.
    And, no matter what happens, we
    are passing a nepotism law as a
    constitutional amendment...
    ...to make sure we leave behind Jeb.

  • complacentpanda, on 01/09/2009, -1/+0He's delusional
  • somberlaine, on 01/09/2009, -4/+1hilarious.
