I suppose it was a magic time for Hosni Mubarak too, he was powerful and famous, etc. Somehow, I don’t think Egypt got the better end of that deal though. Maybe W. should take it as a clue.

He’s confusing “famous” with “infamous”. We all know that he has a limited vocabulary but that’s a fairly basic mistake to make!

I could have lived out my life without ever seeing this fuck’s face again.

Nope, I can’t stomach it. I still weep at Bush v. Gore. But I did see earlier this week that he had “written” a book (See above.) But the smaller print made it clear he has a collection of writings by other people, and he may have written an intro….Yikes. Imagine paying, or spending time, on something he says he wrote. Wonder why he is coming out of his Dallas cul de sac. We had heard he was spending time with the video games in the mall nearby.

To sum it up in three words;

Torture / Murder / Treason , what a guy !

May the ghost of Pat Tillman, an American Hero, haunt him to the gates of hell as they swing wide open.

Amen….I loved the Tillman family as shown in the movie…what guts and class. W doesn’t know about such things. Thanks for the reminder.

I’m with you, kiddo.
And, I can’t stomach clicking the link.
It Is dinnertime around here.
I just can’t go there.
Too sickening.

George Bush should be in prison.

Sorry Teddy – beat ya to this one!

W still thinks he’s adorable. He’s probably the only person in the world who makes Mitt look smart.

There might be a few others.
Isn’t it awful?

Hi Kelly.
Yes, he should be. Liar, beggar, thief.
Too many words to type if I keep going.
Sorry. I should’nt have started.
Sixteen tomatoes out of the garden today. Making sauce.
I can only Do what I can do.

It’s awful and a disgrace that such a person could have been our president for 8 years. Along with Darth.

What is happening here? Summer fever?
We have Darth Cheney re-emerging to advise the Republican leadership on going full bore to make sure no defense cuts are made in the deal that Repubs reneged on from last summer.
Now GWB makes an appearance to promote his book “My Pet Goat” oops, “The 4 percent solution…” book he wrote, yeah right.
He would not know anything about Economics if it bit him in the ass.
Romney is stumbling and they see their chance for renewed glory.

Yuk, yuk, yuk. No WMD here, what about over there? NO? Yuk, yuk yuk.

Another face I can’t face.
(Hi Twain.)

Hi, Demi. Is it hot down your way?

Who wrote Bush’s book? The man was famous while in office for lacking the interest and attention span to read a newspaper, and his briefings famously had to be kept brief indeed and spoon fed to him by his managers and handlers. No way such a man wrote his own book.

We should write a play…exactly the way I think of him…yuk yuk in some ghastly inappropriate way. Our stolen election President and Darth who did the Veep search and….guess what? Selected himself? Are we crazy or what? Thanks

See 4 above: It’s a collection from others…of course.

This man should never have been president. It is a shame on all of us that he was and we did it twice!!! We deserve – at the least – - a person who can pretend to understand….. anything. And Darth was/is an evil man.

He didn’t fuck anything up. W. was just the public, TV face of those who did fuck it up. He simply looked better on TV than Cheney.

“. . . and I was famous and I was powerful.” I, I, I. Me, me, me. Indeed, Pam, these are the words of a sociopath. This bribed, collaborating, lying, flickering visage who had the unabashed, owning-class arrogance to pretend he had God on a retainer was proud to walk on a road of bones for eight years. He didn’t even have the decency to stay in character while on TV. Ye fucking gods, at least Reagan did that.

The Phrase, “The Banality of Evil” comes to mind whenever I see this assholes face. George finished the job Reagan started in 1980. We all live in Reagan/BV$Hworld now and thanks to his final gift to us ( his SCOTUS) we are very likely going to for the rest of our lives.

Yes, George, you were famous and you were powerful and awesome. Mostly awesome, I think, more awesome than most anyone.

Yeah, yeah he did. He really fucked up everything.

There was some phrase in TX about now a village is missing its idiot…(Not exact, but close) Amazing how clever folks can be.

“I still weep at Bush v. Gore.”

Do you remember the footage of W. right BEFORE the election results came in, while they were still be counted in Florida? His was the self-satisfied, condescending, ruling-class face of someone who knew he couldn’t lose.

For any of those who still imagine that the citizenry vote to decide who the US President is, go watch that footage. If voting was legitimate, the Bush family and ilk would have outlawed it over 200 years ago.

From anther Gore: “If you were to give sodium pentathol to the Bush family and ask them what they thought about the ‘common man,’ you would hear such a string of expletives as you have never heard before.” –Gore Vidal

AC!

Dr. Mengele was also powerful and famous.

All Republicans are self centered egotistical pricks.

Bush wrote every word of it. Of course it was dictated to him by a chimp.

I’d rather stick knitting needles in my eyes. Just seeing pictures of that smug smirking mug raises my blood pressure. Maybe the feeling of nausea will fade before I die, but I sincerely doubt it.

I do not think I recall that. I had gone to bed in the time Gore had won…What I best recall and makes me most recoil is when the count was stopped….So wrong. But I know the look…they left the mansion and went out for a fine dinner while Jeb & Harris were doing the dirty work. We saw our country unwind, imho.

Just too painful to watch. And I am a Canadian!

No. It’s just gorgeous.
That’s a weird looking word isn’t it?
Last week was wicked hot with humidity. But, it’s paradise right now.
Cool by you, I bet.

Not that you’re judging. Ha.

Wish folks were still interested…;) Guess the Stupidity of George is an old subject….See you in the morning, maybe.

Cheney, yes. W. didn’t even know what levers to pull. Look at both of their careers before 2000 (and ask the ghost of Molly Ivins, Jim Hightower, or, shit, any resident of Texas who follows state politics what it takes to be governor). But Cheney could never be President because he looked like the criminal rapist that he was when on TV (as does his wife). You can’t be President in the US unless you look good on TV. It is far and away the most important criteria.

W. didn’t even have the brains and work ethic to convincingly pretend to be the President on TV. That was the meaning of his sniggering, “Heh-heh-heh”: it was his out-of-character aside to the audience. While the Mister-Smith-Goes-to-Washington bullshit and his pronunciation of nuclear, etc. were contrived, W. just couldn’t take the put-on seriously. And why should he? He was and always will be rich and above the law.

Other Owners, captains of industry, Neo-cons priests, and sundry apparatchiks gave us the GWOT and continued, Fascist wealth disparity. W., like his oil days in Texas or “with” the Air National Guard, was just along for the rich kid’s ride.

Compare the career of W. before the WH with Romney’s.

ONE of the great lines of Molly: I tried to tell ya’….And he got there so he could play war…Dear God.

Well, the political Christians and Neo-cons seems to be. Self-righteous, punishment-addicted, obligate Shits who can’t mind their own goddamn business, as Burroughs would say. I’m not above a little bigoted generalization when it comes to folks this cruel to their fellow human beings. I don’t hate them. I just feel better when they are not around.

I got to the sixth uhhh…..at 3mins in…

uhh….that was enough chimp for me.

People like W. are living arguments for religious belief.
He couldn’t possibly get away with what he’s done….could he?
Cheney and Shrub will surely be punished in some afterlife, otherwise there is no justice, no fairness, no sense to life.
That man represents, to me, everything that’s wrong with the world.

The shots of Bush before the counting stopped are floating around somewhere.

But yes, it was the shallow, aristocratic look of born entitlement by those who, barring a revolt with a guillotine, will always be rich and “awesome.”

I’ll look for you in the am.
Just got back from dropping off a couple containers of dinner for the homeless on the corner down the hill.
My son brought 16 tomatoes in from the garden and I had some other stuff which I added to make a sauce. With some zucchini and some pasta, it was a lot of dinner, so we shared.
It’s so easy to love.

The former president is promoting a book on economic growth

Future titles in the “I Were an Awesome Presidunt” Series:

“Human Rights: My Sacred Moral Obligation”

“Electoral Politics: Fight Hard, But Fight Clean”

“How I Rose From Poverty to Power”

“Separation of Church and State: A Sacred Moral Obligation”

“Combatting Crony Capitalism”

“Letting Dick Cheney Stick His Hand Up the Back of My Suit Jacket and Tell Me What to Do: My Sacred Moral Obligation”

Yeah, a famous evil piece of shit.

Crawl back in your spider hole George before you’re noticed by the still angry masses.

Our understanding of the world is diminished in her absence.

PS –
This is my Fuck You to the w’s and other a holes.
The homeless near my ate home made sauce with pasta and you didn’t!!
(Ain’t I a stinker?)

They shouldn’t count on it.

Oh, PS – Thank You!, Pam.

Yes, you are a stinker! Of the best kind. And you are a sweetheart. I’m sure the homeless love and trust you. Thanks, demi, for being the good person that you are.

If it’s any consolation, JR, I try to think of it this way: If it weren’t for sociopathic pricks like W., words like kindness and empathy would have no meaning. And God? There have been enough “leaders” like W. in my lifetime to make me imagine that the Almighty must have a special place in his heart for them.

Hey!
I really enjoy feeding people. That’s what I’ve figured out. And, with the way things are going, why not share a couple of bowls of what I made?
Bob, who lives on and behind a bus bench, said Oh, I’ll share this with the guys. We’ll all eat tonight.
He’s such a nice man. Tough situations.
((Dearie))

this is true;

you are most appreciated, demi

Trust is the thing.
I took two loads of laundry which I lovingly washed, dryed and folded for him. If I didn’t trust him, and him me, we couldn’t have negotiated that.
If I didn’t have the balls to talk to the homeless, I wouldn’t be in a position to help them.

Thanks, BFL. Really.
There’s some left, if you want some.
I mean, really. If I’m going to share with my online friends, why wouldn’t I share with people who live on the streets in my neighborhood?
You!

Aw, George, you big lug. Why don’t you go play in traffic?
