Anybody got links to the quotes by Johnny Carson bashing Bush?
I know he was an equal-opportunity joker about Dems and Repukes when he was on the air, but I recall reading some rather scathing comments he made about the Chimp in the past few years. Can't recall where or when, but I know he really hated Dumbo.

RIP, Johnny, you obviously knew a bad thing when you saw it!

1. Was this it?
"Can you believe this Enron mess? I love how Bush's good friend 'Kenny Boy' suddenly turned into 'Mr. Lay.'
Give me a break!"
Johnny Carson

3. Yup, that was one of them!
Tehre were a few more--see posted below. And I think there was something that wasn't even a joke where he said how awful Dumbo was, and how unfit he was to be Prez.

2. Here they are:
"Yesterday President Bush was to have a two-hour meeting with the Saudi Arabian prince. The actual meeting took five hours because they had to translate from Arabic to English, then English to Bush."

"Baylor University in Texas has announced that they would like to have the presidential Library of George W. Bush. They said all they need is for President Bush to donate the two books he's read."

"Can you believe this Enron mess? I love how Bush's good friend 'Kenny Boy' suddenly turned into 'Mr. Lay.' Give me a break!"

8. He did some bashing on Poppy.
On the last show, Robin Williams was tearing into Bush 1 and Johnny was crying he was laughing so hard.
