12. Another difference between Bush and...
Adolf Hitler.

Hitler could give a speech without looking stupid.

2. Idiot
<snip>

"O’REILLY: Every year, three and a half million illegals come over. Why can’t the federal government control that?

PRESIDENT BUSH: Well, as you know, as the governor of Texas, I was very aware of this issue, there is a long border, that makes it hard to control. We have beefed up places along the border to try to stop the process of, of, of uh, of uh,

O’REILLY: With all due respect though, it’s not working.

PRESIDENT BUSH: Well,

O’REILLY: Three million people.

PRESIDENT BUSH: It’s working a little better, they're doing a pretty good job down in Arizona, which is the main border crossing, but I was trying to get my words here for a minute. Trying to give you some facts that would, I think there's a thousand more border patrol agents along the border, we’re modernizing border techniques, we’re using better surveillance methods to stop this, crossing at the border. Now look, people are coming up because they want to work. You know, that, family values don’t stop at the border.

<snip>

Oh. my. god.
Stupidest. president. ever.

Another bit from the article for those of you who can't stomach the nausea of reading the whole thing. It wasn't easy to read.


<snip>

O’REILLY: The mission accomplished statement in May 2003, if you had to do it all over again, would you not have done it?

PRESIDENT BUSH: Uh, well first of all, the statement said, Thank you for be, serving in Afghanistan and Iraq, thank you for being on one of the largest, longest cruises in our nation’s history. Thank you for serving our country, and we’ve still got tough work in Iraq. Now I’m, I’m going to go and thank our troops every chance I get.

O’REILLY: But the press spinned it, you know how they spinned it.

PRESIDENT BUSH: Well, they spin everything.

11. Did O'Reilly say "spinned"?
I wonder if all his educated viewers will notice.

10. I can't believe Chimpy actually said this:
"Um, I think when it’s all said and done, the Iraqis are going to look back and say thank God for America."

I guess he subscribes to the Ann Coulter vision of Iraq where we "kill all their leaders and convert them to Christianity".

13. Well, I read the whole thing. Easier that watching & listening to him!
I simply can't believe this idiot managed to get to live in the WH! I've heard good speakers, mediocre speakers, and poor speakers, but NEVER a speaker this bad who has made enough public speeches to have gotten elected to a Gov, and at least thinks he was elected Pres.

I had better interview conversations when I was in HS, than this!

Even disregarding his policies, I'm truly embarrassed by this man claiming to represent the US to the World.
