"George, it was great being able to make fun of you for the last two years. I really enjoyed calling you an incompetent boob. Thanks for the memories."

Clinton says:” Ya know, I don’t think I’ve ever had my pants on in this room before. Heh, Heh good times.”

“All the gentlemen here understand both the pressures and possibilities of this office,” Obama said. “For me to have the opportunity to get advice, good counsel and fellowship with these individuals is extraordinary.”

Politicians kill me, he talks like this now but yesterday he would have been telling anyone who asked that nobody named Bush has ever done anything right in the oval office and their advice and counsel are totally worthless.

One of these things is not like the others,
One of these things just doesn’t belong,
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?

Did you guess which thing was not like the others?
Did you guess which thing just doesn’t belong?
If you guessed this one is not like the others,
Then you’re absolutely...right!

“Carter and Clinton combined will be a happy memory compared to what’s coming in the next 4 years.”

I wish I could think of some way that you might be wrong...but I can’t.

Just an impression, but I think O is a much bigger fan of the Presidents Bush than he is of the Carter-Clinton cabal.

To be honest, he’s been very respectful of GWB during the transition, and I have a hunch some of the intelligence he’s learned has shown him pretty conclusively that W isn’t the dolt the Dems have been saying he is for the past 8 years.

And as to the elder President Bush, there isn’t a more congenial fellow in the country. It’s good to see him looking well.

Clinton, Carter and Bush One....maybe the leftist elite is right- we ARE too stupid to self govern.

All of these past and incoming presidents prove the claim that we are a nation of style and glibness over substance.

George W. Bush wished him well and pledged that the office "transcends the individual."

Perhaps this gathering is intended to humble Nitbama on the eve of his taking office.

Either that, or Clinton is trying to move Bush out of the way.

“Presidents Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter, both smiling broadly, stood with them.”

I don’t doubt they did.

Did you see how official Obama looked while GW seemed a lot more genial and completely understanding the silliness of it?

The first words out of Jimmuh’s mouth at lunch will probably be, “Ah don’t know if you are aware of this, but I negotiated a peace agreement at Camp David while I was President.”

This must have been quite the day for Comrade 0bama, getting to meet for lunch with two half-wit RINOs who sold out conservative Americans at every opportunity, a senile anti-Semite who betrayed America at every turn, and a sexual predator who still doesn’t know WTF the difference between what ‘is’ and ‘is’ is.

That’s a Hallmark moment for sure.

Four of 5 {LBJ is dead} of our worse post WW2 presidents.

We've had losing streaks like this before in the history of the republic. All it takes is 1 big house-cleaning. Trouble is that it usually takes a cataclysm of some sort to bring that about.

I have a hunch that has a lot to do with whatever dirt the Hildabeast has on him.

Yes, but it won't matter. Obama is a politician in the worst sense of the word. He will shift as much blame as he can on his predecessor whether he deserves it or not.
