    I’m so glad he’s dead, what a shit person. That whole administration was terrible and Bush was just a fucking idiot letting it all happen. Conservatives need to lose big in November because their legacy is dead.

    Words from the man George W. Bush thought was the right guy for secretary of state:

    We know where they are [Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction]. They’re in the area around Tikrit and Baghdad and east, west, south and north somewhat.

      Deep thoughts from Teflon Don.

      For a brief moment during Bush(Cheney) years, there was this screensaver with some of the more outlandish quotes from his press briefings.

      He had a way with words, and that way was to go nowhere. It was an art form.

      Probably also the record for ‘getting people you have shot in the face to apologize to you on TV’. It only happened once, but it was still weird.

      edit: fuck me I’m getting old, that was Dick Cheney.

      Hmmm, there’s one part of the recording that’s edited out right after Louis asks “Did you have more capability to fly it because of your lizard reflexes?” He says “I’ve got a thought for you…” But what does he say next? Why did they cut it??

        Lizard people are able to disrupt electronics like cameras and microphones.
