Boys and Girls: Bush* was right during his speech in France:
When they told him JFK's quote:

"Benjamin Franklin once said that every American has two homes--his own country and France. And I am sure that in this visit which I undertake that I bring to France and to President de Gaulle the appreciation, the respect and esteem of all of the people of this country who value his courage over a period of 20 years in which he has served as one of the great Captains of the West."

Bush* said:

"To re-paraphrase John Kennedy, there is America and there is Texas."

TEXAS IS AN ALIEN COUNTRY (not even foreign, it is ALIEN). Look at the Texas GOP platform. IT IS UNBELIEVABLE.

1. Right,. I understood JFK's comment right away. It was a diss
It was saying that Texas should be its own country.

2. I WISH I could explain to you all
HOW MOFO FUNNY this little quip is to some of us ex-pats. It's SO SAD that Amis have no reference points to the RoTW. Texas= Bavaria!!! It's a joke that has us clutching our sides, spewing on our monitors and rolling on the floor. Meine ficken Fresse!!!

3. Moral of the story:
Edited on Sun Jun-06-04 04:19 PM by cliss
an imbecile with an I.Q. of 91 should never try to be a sarcastic stand-up comedian. The only way he draws laughs is with his lapses in speech, his confusion at what he just said, and the giggles and stares as his listeners fail to understand what he just said.

Fool. Don't even try.

PS: Andy Warhol said that out of fairness, every single person should get to have 15 minutes of fame. That way, everybody would get to see what it feels like. George W. Bush used up his 15 minutes several decades ago. Time to get him off the stage.
