"People say, how can I help on this war against terror? How can I fight evil? You can do so by mentoring a child; by going into a shut-in's house and
say I love you." -George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Sept. 19, 2002

Slate has a good Bushism every now and then:
"Throughout our history, the words of the Declaration have inspired immigrants from around the world to set sail to our shores. These immigrants have helped transform 13 small colonies into a great and growing nation of more than 300 people."-Charlottesville, Va., July 4, 2008 "The German asparagus are fabulous."-Meseberg, Germany, June 11, 2008 "Take the Middle East seriously because that's the center of-that's the place where people get so despondent and despair that they're willing to come and take lives of U.S. citizens."-on advice he would give the next president, Washington, D.C., May 12, 2008 "We want people owning their home-we want people owning a businesses."-Washington, D.C., April 18, 2008 "A lot of times in politics you have people look you in the eye and tell you what's not on their mind."-Sochi, Russia, April 6, 2008 "I'm oftentimes asked, What difference does it make to America if people are dying of malaria in a place like Ghana? It means a lot. It means a lot morally, it means a lot from a-it's in our national interest."-Accra, Ghana, Feb. 20, 2008 "And so, in my State of the-my State of the Union-or state-my speech to the nation, whatever you want to call it, speech to the nation-I asked Americans to give 4,000 years-4,000 hours over the next-the rest of your life-of service to America. That's what I asked-4,000 hours." -Bridgeport, Conn., April 9, 2002 "It would be a mistake for the United States Senate to allow any kind of human cloning to come out of that chamber."-Washington, D.C., April 10, 2002 |

Bush was a terrible president, and I say that as a conservative republican. The Iraq War was not worth the cost, and the prescription drug bill is an
incredible budget buster, McCain's support for the importation of drugs from Canada make far more sense and is a free market solution. But for some of you
to actually defend what Dan Rather did is really puzzling. Do you Rather supporters understand the difference between right and wrong? The media should be a
deterrent to corruption, but the US news media is so often untrustworthy that when they do have a legitimate point about an important issue most people
don't believe them.

In a dramatic move yesterday President Bush removed the executive-branch moratorium on offshore drilling. Today, at a news conference, Bush repeated his new
position, and slammed the Democratic Congress for not removing the congressional moratorium on the Outer Continental Shelf and elsewhere. Crude-oil
futures for August delivery plunged $9.26, or 6.3 percent, almost immediately as Bush was speaking, bringing the barrel price down to $136.
You can start thanking him now. |

Donald Rumsfeld is giving the President his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."
"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!" His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands. Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?" |

Obama on gas prices. How about you start an equivalent to this thread on Nov. 3 when Obama is elected? |

The American leader, who has been condemned throughout his presidency for failing to tackle climate change, ended a private meeting with the words:
"Goodbye from the world's biggest polluter."
He then punched the air while grinning widely, as the rest of those present including Gordon Brown and Nicolas Sarkozy looked on in shock. Mr Bush, whose second and final term as President ends at the end of the year, then left the meeting at the Windsor Hotel in Hokkaido. |
