Bush says his presidency will be viewed as an "agent for peace"
... "I know the American people want somebody to stand on principle, make decisions and stand by them and lead this world toward a more peaceful tomorrow, and I strongly believe we're doing that. And I ENJOY IT. It's a fantastic opportunity." He also said he feels he has "ample capital" despite his sagging polls...

Among other topics, Vargas asked Bush how Cheney is doing in the wake of his hunting accident, in which the vice president accidentally shot a friend and hunting partner. "He was shaken," Bush said, adding that he noticed it when Cheney visited him in the Oval Office. "I said, 'Dick, this got you, didn't it?' And he said, 'It sure did.' I said, 'Well, IF YOU FEEL LIKE IT, you ought to share it with the American people.' "

He told Vargas he hopes that his presidency, in retrospect, will be viewed as an "agent for peace."

7. That might be the phrase they use in his book,...
...but that is definitely too clean a wording for what people will call this presidency.

16. It's such a fantastic excuse for everything!
I may be hated now, but history will prove me right. In 20 years I'll be a hero - you just don't know it yet.

That's such an all-purpose excuse for everything! I'm going to try it out. I may not have gotten the work done, but in 20 years you'll see that I was right to go to the beach instead! Just wait and see!

21. Somebody to stand on principle
What principle is he talking about? We have people living in trailers in New Orleans who are fortunate to get one. We are selling out American jobs and now American boarders. Iraq is turned into a disaster. What principle is he taking about. Bush really needs to get his head out of his ass or the bottle.

28. "Agent for Peace" That's rapture code, btw.
He thinks he's a God warrior helpin' Jeebus fight the Beast so all his minions can get sucked up into the sky. Then he'll look down from the heavens and laugh as us left-behinders who have to live in his ruins.

Meanwhile, in Iran, we have another M(essi)aniac nutjob who's fulfilling Islamic prophecy, so he thinks, but Bushie knows better b/c that's the Antichrist.

BOOM!

Agents for peace.
