If George W. Bush had ...

If George W. Bush had made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had given Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon Brown had given him a thoughtful and historically significant gift, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod containing videos of his speeches, would you have thought this embarrassingly narcissistic and tacky?

If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the non-existent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a minor slip?

If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current on their income taxes, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had been so Spanish illiterate as to refer to “Cinco de Cuatro” in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the fourth of May (Cuatro de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again, would you have winced in embarrassment?

If George W. Bush had mis-spelled the word advice would you have hammered him for it for years like Dan Quayle and potatoe as “proof” of what a dunce he is?

If George W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a single tree on “Earth Day”, would you have concluded he’s a hypocrite?

If George W. Bush’s administration had okayed Air Force One flying low over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown Manhattan causing widespread panic, would you have wondered whether they actually “get” what happened on 9-11?

If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference, would you have laughed and said this is more proof of how inept he is on his own and is really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes?

If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood victims throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than in New Orleans , would you want it made into a major ongoing political issue with claims of racism and incompetence?

If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had proposed to double the national debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the debt again 10 times within years, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had reduced your retirement plan’s holdings of GM stock by 90% and given the unions a majority stake in GM, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to take Laura Bush to a play in NYC, would you have approved?

So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant and impressive? Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done all this in 5 months -- so you'll have three years and seven months to come up with an answer.

I would have been enraged at such a thing, like any other decent person would have. The only reason the press is for Zero is because he fulfills their hippie dreams of tearing down the very establishment that keeps society functional.

George W. Bush was not a radical fascist nut cake, so he would not do any of these things.

The media is a bunch of brainwashed far left socialists, so Zero is their god!

No. I would not have approved.

But, with that said, George W Bush, as much as I am not a fan of his, was not anywhere NEAR stupid enough to do most of those things.

I was told , I think in august of 08 by freeper that by 20 January I'd miss Dubya.......That freeper was right but it was around october 15th, I started to miss him.

I wish the man that handled 9/11, had finished his presidency, defending what he knew was right, too often he was the gentleman, when he needed to not care who he punched in the mouth.( figuratively )

I’m with you on that!

And even after the election, I was hoping GWB would resign in December 2008 - JUST so B.O. would have had to have all of his inaugural invites, napkins, flyers, tee-shirts and other assorted gee-gaws reprinted, what with him no longer being the 44th president, but the 45th!

But Bush let me down. Oh well.

People in all 57 States agree that they would have felt the same way - If George Bush was a black liberal.

I knew this was going to be a long list before it was through.

And they are all right on.

Isn’t it enough that he never backed down, that he ignored polls and the media that hammered him with 100% negative coverage? History will do his punching.

"This list needs to be sent to Chris Matthews."

Wouldn't do a lick of good. Matthew is a dishonest "journalist" and only works to further the left. The democrat agenda will not be stopped until the current press is eliminated.
