Watching Bush speak on Economics.
First off, I could have shortened the speech to just a few choice words:

"Yes, America, I went and made things even worse, and you are going to have to fix it... or starve. God Bless"

Primarily though, I just walked away from that surreal moment of Bush trying to explain the mortgage crisis -- feeling like he was a 6 year old kid forced to give a book report on Moby Dick.

This man was never fit to be President -- and he has proved it over and over again with failure after failure. There's just too much to list, and it makes me deeply angry to even think about trying.

To watch John McCain try to spin this into some sort of superhero maverick American savior story makes him look more like Bush than ever.

This man finished almost last in his class. He does not understand the economy.. he does not want to. He has proven it over and over again. He is no hero, he is an opportunistic ass-hat with a moose-hunting wannabe in tote.

Look for the McCain campaign, after a bailout bill is passed to call for the debate to be held on an aircraft carrier sitting just off the coast near wall street. A Mission accomplished sign will hang from his podium. The war on economic collapse will have been won, and McCain can ride off into the Presidency....

or America can say

"Enough"

1. You forgot the best sweetheart of the night.
Bush: "It's because of YOU, America, that we're in this mess."

What lame brain Repug advisor thought that "Main St. caused the collapse" would be an affective talking point?

2. It was painful...
I can't wait to get him out of the White House. Too bad the piece of shit will never have to pay for what he's done to our country, him and all of the greedy assed Republicans.
