okay, we have less than four more years of this idiot?

And he is talking about the educational system...someone should have made George and Barbara more accountable for his education. This man seems to have a hard time speaking "on his feet".

He has spoken a lot of YA-YA!

I couldn't get through the whole thing because I was laughing so hard...that and everyone within earshot of me wanted Bush to win, so I'm not too sure they would have seen the humor...

These are my votes for FUNNIEST, this makes it even more unbelievable that people voted for him enough to secure a victory.

"Then I went for a run with the other dog and just walked. And I started thinking about a lot of things. I was able to—I can't remember what it was. Oh, the inaugural speech, started thinking through that."—Pre-inaugural interview with U.S. News & World Report, Jan. 22, 2001 issue

DID you all know that when you go for a run, you really are supposed to walk??

The California crunch really is the result of not enough power-generating plants and then not enough power to power the power of generating plants."—Interview with the New York Times, Jan. 14, 2001

WTH??????

"The legislature's job is to write law. It's the executive branch's job to interpret law."—Austin, Texas, Nov. 22, 2000

WTH?? Did he miss a few days over and over in American government, civics, etc.??

"Anyway, after we go out and work our hearts out, after you go out and help us turn out the vote, after we've convinced the good Americans to vote, and while they're at it, pull that old George W. lever, if I'm the one, when I put my hand on the Bible, when I put my hand on the Bible, that day when they swear us in, when I put my hand on the Bible, I will swear to not—to uphold the laws of the land."—Toledo, Ohio, Oct. 27, 2000

OH MY DAMN!!

"I mean, there needs to be a wholesale effort against racial profiling, which is illiterate children."—Second presidential debate, Oct. 11, 2000 (Thanks to Leonard Williams.)

This one is not even close to being FUNNY!!

Black is a mystery, and part of my history. Black is bold and worth a hell of a lot more than gold.

I still can't believe this man is our President. He's supposed to represent the US?

He's having trouble representing himself, let alone a whole country.

Here are some more votes for the "funniest" sayings:

"I'm hopeful. I know there is a lot of ambition in Washington, obviously. But I hope the ambitious realize that they are more likely to succeed with success as opposed to failure."—Interview with the Associated Press, Jan. 18, 2001 (Thanks to M. Bateman.)

Since when did anyone use failure to succeed?

"I would have to ask the questioner. I haven't had a chance to ask the questioners the question they've been questioning. On the other hand, I firmly believe she'll be a fine secretary of labor. And I've got confidence in Linda Chavez. She is a—she'll bring an interesting perspective to the Labor Department."—Austin, Texas, Jan. 8, 2001

Does he even know what he said in the beginning of this one?

"They misunderestimated me."—Bentonville, Ark., Nov. 6, 2000

"It's your money. You paid for it."—LaCrosse, Wis., Oct. 18, 2000

I think these two speak for themselves.

I still wonder how he got to be President.

My coworker just informed me that GEORGIE got lost in the White House.

He could not find his way to the kitchen. My question is didn't he participate in a White HOuse tour before he was elected. He should leave a trail of bed crumbs to find his way back.

12dn94dst · #9 02-12-2001, 09:52 AM

humph....

George was curious, huh??

Where was the Man in the Yellow Hat to bail him out? Or are there multiple Men in Yellow Hats, um, dark suits, to bail him out?

This message was sent to me and I thought it was funny.

An ISRAELI doctor said...
"Medicine in my country is so advanced, we can take a kidney out of one person, put it in another, and have him looking for work in six weeks".

A GERMAN doctor said...
"That`s nothing! In Germany we can take a lung out of one person, put it in another, and have him looking for work in four weeks".

A RUSSIAN doctor said...
"In my country medicine is so advanced,we can take half a heart from one person, put it in another, and have them both looking for work in two weeks".

The AMERICAN doctor, not to be outdone, said...
"You guys are all way behind. In my country we have just taken an idiot out of Texas and put him in the White House and now half the country is looking for work.

Bush's Education:
"Do You Have Blacks Too?"

From May 19 issue of Germany's Der Spiegel

(Translation) "It is said about the US president that before 9-11 he thought that the Taliban was a Bavarian brass band. Now the president of the world's most powerful nation has put his foot in his mouth yet again. It was Condoleezza Rice, his national security advisor who had to rescue the situation. When talking with Brazilian president Fernando Henrique Cardoso, 71, Bush surprisingly asked: "Do you have Blacks too?"

Ms. Rice noticed how stunned and surprised Cardoso looked and quickly told Bush that Brazil likely has more blacks than the US and that outside of Africa it was the place with the highest number of blacks. The Brazilian president remarked later that Bush was "still in a learning-phase" when it came to South America."

Isn't this just TOTALLY embarassing??? No wonder Saddam, the Taliban, Castro, and others don't take us (the US) seriously any more. Look, just LOOK at WHO we have REPRESENTING us!!!!

But, like I said in a previous post, I REALLY think that ole' Georgie Dubya may have some mild MENTAL RETARDATION going on. And now that I've seen THIS post, I'm thoroughly CONVINCED that Georgie IS mildly mentally retarded. It's like allowing a BLIND MAN to drive a vehicle.

With all of the trouble that they went through to get him into office, one would think that this man would be something like a BIG BRAIN. I'll bet that a LOT of the people who voted for him will think again when it's time for the next election. Heck, I'll bet that even CONNIE RICE is rethinking this mess. And it kinda makes you wonder why we haven't seen much of our vice president since he was sworn in, doesn't it? Maybe ole' Dick just does not want to even be SEEN in public with Georgie. I tell ya, I believe that (in reference to getting into some kind of dispute or war with another country) it's just a matter of time before Georgie writes a check (for the US) that his a** won't be able to cash. And as far as what he said to the Brizilian president goes, Georgie just has NOT met up with the RIGHT person yet (one that will tell his a** off right in front of the cameras).

(AND LAWD, I HOPE THAT I DON'T MISS THAT!!!).
