The Comedy Stylings of George W. Bush

Aka, the funniest lines of his most recent speech. The nice thing about not watching it, but reading it in the paper the next day is you can imagine lines that must have had the gallery almost peeing their pants with laughter. Bush got off some great zingers last night. For instance -

Some in this chamber are new to the House and the Senate, and I congratulate the Democrat majority.

or

Our citizens don't much care which side of the aisle we sit on, as long as we are willing to cross that aisle when there is work to be done.

or these two (iraq spending, what iraq spending laugh lines)
We set a goal of cutting the deficit in half by 2009 and met that goal three years ahead of schedule.
and
Together, we can restrain the spending appetite of the federal government and we can balance the federal budget.

The No Child Left Behind Act has worked for America's children

these two must have had them falling into the aisle in laughter
And these past five years have given us a much clearer view of the nature of this enemy.
and
We're carrying out a new strategy in Iraq

We will . . . continue to awaken the conscience of the world to save the people of Darfur.
[wait, when did he start?]

Ah yes, No Child Left Behind...my favorite piece of failed legislature! Hooray that parents can get a voucher to send their kids to a better school. Here's a bit of common sense...let's give equal support, whether it's money, supplies, staff, etc., to ALL schools so parents won't HAVE to send their kids to BETTER schools. Then, if public schools aren't good enough, they can dig into their pockets and send their kids to private school. Oh yes, I forgot, there is no common sense in the government!

D@mn it, I can't type. Or maybe it's I can't think and type at the same time! Let's tried failed legislation.
