That's Not Bush's Fault: World Leaders Quiz
|
|
Here's installment one of a series that's sure to be a real crowd-pleaser!
The presidency of George Bush, Jr. from 2001 to the present has been an eventful one, to say the least. Like any president, Bush has had his critics throughout; sometimes more, sometimes less. In 2002 or 2003 if you were one of his critics you might have been labelled a Bush Basher at the least, an anti-American at worst. If you criticize the Republican president in 2006, you may be labelled...a fellow Republican.
However no president can be personally involved in every issue that confronts the country during his term. There will be a few things that slip through the beaurucratic machinery that are beyond his control. As an American citizen I thought it would be prudent to point out some of the national issues that have clearly not been George W. Bush's fault*.
* Sarcasm, overt and couched, may appear throughout the following piece.
1.) During his first campaign for president Bush is revealed to not know the names of heads of state during a television interview. A TV news interviewer (Andy Hiller of WHDH-TV, Boston) asked Bush if he could name the heads of a few foreign countries. Bush's answer was, "No. Can you?" Most likely the TV newscaster could and whether he could or not he wasn't going to be expected to dine, deal and negotiate with these people on a daily basis. But heck, as governor of Texas Bush was probably caught up in knowing who the mayor of El Paso was. He didn't have time for that crap!
You know what's worse? Bill Clinton got a blow job in the Oval Office! It's true! Now THAT is inexcusable!
More to come... |

Yes, Art...Clinton did indeed get a hummer (not the four-wheel variety) while in the White House. That is not why he was impeached, however...and even someone like you, who honestly believes George Bush can change gas prices with a phone call, knows that (even if you won't admit it).
Bear in mind even the most slavering right-wingers (like me) think impeachment was a bit ridiculous, but that said, here's a refresher on why Clinton was impeached:
He lied...under oath...in a sexual harassment investigation...to protect himself.
A powerful, white man...who sexually used a subordinate at work...lied in a sexual harrassment trial...to protect himself and deny legal recourse for another woman...
And THIS is your poster boy? The champion of women's rights?
So, before you write off Clinton's behavior as "Just a BJ," be completely honest about what transpired.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to phone the White House. Gas is still over two dollars per gallon, and I need to tell Bush I'll vote for two Republicans in exchange for $1.99 per gallon fuel...
For my HUMMER!
