Bush: "This cat isn't remotely qualified.-You think I wasn't qualified?-I was qualified."
The president, like me, didn’t seem to be in love with any of the available options. He always believed Hillary Clinton would be the Democratic nominee. “Wait till her fat keister is sitting at this desk,” he once said (except he didn’t say “keister”). He didn’t think much of Barack Obama. After one of Obama’s blistering speeches against the administration, the president had a very human reaction: He was ticked off. He came in one day to rehearse a speech, fuming. “This is a dangerous world,” he said for no apparent reason, “and this cat isn’t remotely qualified to handle it. This guy has no clue, I promise you.” He wound himself up even more. “You think I wasn’t qualified?” he said to no one in particular. “I was qualified.”

Now go back to doing what rich boys should do. Nothing. Try not to think about other people's asses as well.

22. LOL...
That cat Bush can, like, really dig the first line of "Howl," man:

"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness..."

His administration was a major cause of that madness, after all.

The former resident of the White House was no Maynard G. Krebs.

9. Well, it IS a dangerous world --
and even more so when you're truly paranoid and make a habit of projecting it onto others.

12. I Actually Agree--Neither Is Qualified
Edited on Wed Sep-16-09 09:31 AM by Demeter
Obama however, might be trainable, if he can break loose from Rahm and the Chicago Economists Mafia. Bush is even less qualified than he was 9 years ago.

And as for Hillary, I don't think her heart was in the Presidency other than foreign afffairs--she seems real happy in the SoS, threatening Venezuela and all.

13. Even after 8 years of being there, he still wasn't qualified.
And I refuse to say "even after 8 years of being President" because I still do not believe he was elected by legitimate means either time.

Unnerved by Clinton and Obama? With insecurities like that, he wasn't ready for al-Qaeda.

29. To paraphrase Forest Gump...
...qualified is as qualified does.

Considering Chimpy left the country totally FUBAR, he's in no position to judge qualifications.

30. Think? We know you weren't qualified.
Let's look at your 'legacy'.

The economy, a shambles.

A major American city left to drown

The Terry Schiavo fiasco

A war based on a lie with 4000 plus Americans and 100K plus Iraqis dead and God knows how many more whose lives have been shattered.

Our Constitution ignored

Our rule of law ignored

Our civil rights ignored

Our military debased and misused

The least among us left with next to nothing

The rest of us robbed blind

You are the Anti-Midas. Everything you touch turns to shit.

31. A message for George W
There's a lot of people outside your house. Now crawl under the bed and shut up. If you just think about
it, you're qualified to do that. The current administration is trying to clean up your mess.

32. No, George. You were the most unqualified person to ever hold the office.
Edited on Wed Sep-16-09 09:49 AM by kentuck
Not because of you lack of experience, but because of your lack of curiosity and intelligence. Because of your lack of empathy. Because of your inability to listen to other people. You chose to follow your gut. You were a fucking disaster.

38. Isn't "cat" a rather dated term more often than not associated...
...with a musical style predominantly practiced by dark skinned artists.

Strikes me that this exactly the sort of code for the 'n' word that Bush would think clever.
