I'll start the ball rolling with these gems on theology:

We have a calling from beyond the stars to stand for freedom, and America will always be faithful to that cause.
-- Vaguely religious in a way he shouldn't be, and vaguely sci-fi, all at the same time. Washington, D.C., Jan. 19, 2005

I'm also mindful that man should never try to put words in God's mouth. I mean, we should never ascribe natural disasters or anything else to God. We are in no way, shape, or form should a human being, play God.

Okay, this is on the Bushisms tearaway calendar for 2005. It will always remain my absolute favorite because he actually claims to be inventing these words that already exist, as opposed the words he actually invents but doesn't want to take credit for, like "misunderestimated".

*I've coined new words, like, "misunderstanding" and "Hispanically".*

I about died when I read that. Bad ass calendar.

Snopes on bush quotes

The fake quotes are pretty funny too.

Oh man, that's good stuff.
"And in the spring of 2002, it was the story of Bush's waving at Stevie Wonder that set folks to chortling up their sleeves."

What a dumbass.

Y'know, Bush is the only one of his family that even has a "Texas accent" - quite a thing considering he grew up in Conneticut and went to Yale.

His identification with Texas may be complete - both politically and personally - but that doesn't mean he's actually go the lingo down.

On the other hand, such accidents are in keeping with his character-role as a 'good ol boy' - they don't really hurt him with many Americans, and may actually reinforce his highly dubious claims to be a member of a 'democracy'.

All I'm thinking is, "How in the hell did he get into Yale????"
Yeah, I know. Money, status, daddy. Throw in a fake accent and you could be President!
Maybe he watched too many episodes of Dallas.

So today I ask you to challenge your listeners to love somebody just like they'd like to be loved themselves, to remind them that one person can make a difference in somebody's life, to encourage them, to mentor, to encourage them to start a ministry, which will find the children of those who are incarsinated and love them.
-- By which he means "incarcerated", although the White House web site just whitewashed over Dubya's version of the word in the transcript, Nashville, Tennessee, Feb. 10, 2003

"Incarsinated".

Oh, that's good. At least he didn't claim to invent that one.

And that middle quote....how the hell do you mix up the words "region" and "terror"? They're not even related.

"Brownie, you're doing a heckuva job"

... more proof that the best way to parse the Bush administration's statements is to just invert them. Whatever they say, the reality is the opposite.

Yeah Dubya sounds funny sometimes,
But.....
Nothing beats these two:

"It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is. If the--if he--if 'is' means is and never has been, that is not--that is one thing. If it means there is none, that was a completely true statement....Now, if someone had asked me on that day, are you having any kind of sexual relations with Ms. Lewinsky, that is, asked me a question in the present tense, I would have said no. And it would have been completely true."


"I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky,"

He is one confusing sonofabitch.

And one confused sonofabitch. Which is quite terrifying really.

I'm waiting for people to assassinate him.

what worries me isn't that George is retarded.
I mean every president says retarded things.

Its when he's speaking clearly, in ways that people agree with.

What he's saying is so retarded it gives me chills about the idiocy of the group mind. Tragedy of the commons.

I've always thought the scary thing about GWB isn't that he's stupid. It's that he made people think he's stupid.

But it is important to our freedomsss, that we don't mis-underestimate this man of God, who is our leader, during the present time at which we wage a war against terror.

Don't concentrate on his curiously addled usage, instead focus on the mis-truths and outright lies.

I preferred Ronald Reagan, an actor playing the role of the American president, to George Bush, a sock puppet being performed as the American president, personally.

Just one man's opinion.

Perhaps I should add that Lincoln and Washington are my favourite US presidents based on my knowledge of US history to date.

Neither man was perfect .. as is no man.

I'm fairly certain that the US has passed the midline between democracy and despotism, according to this 1946 educational film. Well worth your time.
