1. A dig at the crazy Trumptalk and the crazy media pandering to the crazy ideas as not so bad?

[alcibiades_mystery]

2. "This making me President is taking, like, forever."

Dear Gawd, maybe Dubya was the articulate one!

[Sanity Claws]

3. Believing in magic wands is a reason to disqualify him

If he doesn't believe in magic wands, then the statement was useless. Either way he should be considered disqualified.

[Bad Thoughts]

5. Not believing in constitutional conventions makes him un-American

It shows a lack of respect for our democracy that is dangerous.

[Warren DeMontague]

4. Last thing I want to hear about before lunch is what Jeb would do with his wand.

No thx.

[Hekate]

6. Let me guess: Nine of them would be in the Bill of Rights!

The 14th Amendment is the tenth one, as he has told us, and no Repub would mess with the 2nd.

10. + Magic Wand to Democracy

Family was big into eugenics and fascism when they were new.

[KamaAina]

12. The Bush Crime Family very much fancies itself to be

a hereditary monarchy. They are, rather like the Borgias were to Renaissance Italy. The greed, power lust, corruption and general scumminess match up more or less one-to-one.

8. “If this were a dictatorship it would be a heck of a lot easier... as long as I'm the dictator. Hehe

― George W. Bush

9. I laughed, thats a good one liner coming from him

Too bad about all the crap he caused in Iraq though. Does he have a one liner for that? Something like "a little blow back never hurt anyone. Heh heh"

[0rganism]

11. i think his correspondents' dinner joke about WMD would qualify for that

> Too bad about all the crap he caused in Iraq though. Does he have a one liner for that?

(shows picture of him looking under a desk in the WH) "those weapons of mass destruction gotta be somewhere... hehe"
and media whores everywhere cackled and gave him mad props going into the 2004 election

13. More W quotes

This is an impressive crowd -- the haves and the have mores. Some people call you the elite -- I call you my base.

As you know, my position is clear – I'm the commander guy.

The same folks that are bombing innocent people in Iraq were the ones who attacked us in America on September the 11th.

I'm the commander -- see, I don't need to explain -- I do not need to explain why I say things. That's the interesting thing about being president.

You know, one of the hardest parts of my job is to connect Iraq to the war on terror.

The most important thing is for us to find Osama bin Laden. It is our number one priority and we will not rest until we find him. -Sep 13, 2001
I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority." -March 13, 2002

Eight years was awesome. I was famous and I was powerful.

15. If I had a magic wand,

poofing the entire Bush Crime Family to the moons of Pluto would be on my "10 Things to Do" list.
