What I want to know is how in the hell does a C-student get into an Ivy League School. Was it a pile of C-students from the Harvard and Yale business schools who became the CEO's and regulators of our Financial System? Just venting a little frustration on how poorly we manage to run our countries business and government affairs. ID: 853741 · |

President Bush is getting blamed for a lot of things he had no control over. Maybe we should give Obama control over more of the economy. Could the country do any worse with Obama at the helm than it did on auto-pilot. ID: 854614 · |

Could the country do any worse with Obama at the helm than it did on auto-pilot. I mean really, People with no proof, Outside of Rumors, Say Bush Lied, Or cause their were No Weapons of Mass Destruction they'll say He lied and made It all up, Why? Paranoia, Ignorance of how Government works, Having an Axe to Grind, I could go on, But even I don't know why. CNN broadcast Saddam saying that He(Saddam) let It be known that Iraq had WMDs in Iraq, Why? To keep Iran from invading Iraq Saddam said, Saddam also said that He didn't think the US would invade, But We did, As the USA, the UN and the UK bought His story hook, line and sinker as the Intelligence agencies didn't know they'd been conned.

Tony Blair and George W Bush will go down in history as the worst Prime Minister and President that the UK and the USA ever had. Their time in office, when history evaluates it, will come out as bad as they are seen now, possibly worse. One of the major blunders made with the Iraq invasion was the Middle East counter balance to Iran. By taking out Iraq the restrictions and constraints on Iran was taken away. The rest followed as day follows night, with all the variations of terrorism aimed at the Western democracies. ID: 854851 · |

Setting alight to another countries oil fields is unacceptable and repetative behaviour of that outrageous nature is and must be deemed an act of humane defiance. Personally, a bomb of any sort directed at a region I was governing would be met with severe conditioning regardless of the diplomatic climate and balance of a country counter balancing the subject topic. As for Tony Blair? He's right who wants the Euro? ID: 854892 · |

Could the country do any worse with Obama at the helm than it did on auto-pilot. Stupid is, as stupid does. I guess the only way for many people to stay sane is to believe that the CIA and every intelligence service on Earth were hoodwinked by a simpleton running a weak,third rate country in the middle of the desert. By allowing their Fratboy president the wiggle room to get away with his claims of bad intelligence leading up to the invasion of a vastly inferior opponent, they are granting themselves the same wiggle room when it comes to their blind trust in the president. Sorry, but the evidence has been in front of you all along. As soon as Bush pulled the weapons inspectors out of Iraq and started bombing, before the inspections had been completed, I knew it was all a fraud. ID: 855017 · |

Bush will be remembered as the greatest misunderestimated decider. ...or as the worst president since Harding. Either way, somehow I just don't see JibJab videos being as funny without him. ID: 855246 · |

I didn't catch most of the inaugaration but I did catch the helicopter shuttling the ex-pres and clan to the Airbase. As I watched them come at the camera mounted in the Washington Monument (an AMAZING shot if I do say so!) I felt a great sense of relief. Hi Ho- the W is gone, the W is gone! ID: 855891 · |

Either way, somehow I just don't see JibJab videos being as funny without him. I haven't seen any of them since 2004, so I can't say anything about what they have done since. But I really laughed at the way Hillary always slapped Bill in those two I saw back then. That was funny! And I'm sure of that JibJab and all the stand-up comedians and talkshow hosts will find something about Obama to make jokes about. "I'm trying to maintain a shred of dignity in this world." - Me

No matter what, he was your President and deserves the respect for having served as that for two periods, elected by the people. I found it distasteful to see how people buh'ed at him when he came out for the ceremony. That is not a proper way to treat a President the last minutes of his terms IMHO.

Actually no W doesn't deserve any praise and thanks. He deserves a swift kick in the .... yet I digress. The President gets respect by being respectable. I haven't seen that ever from W. From the compassionate conservative to the great job Brownie, he's been an embarrassment to the post. The fact that he couldn't and/or wouldn't reign in Cheney tells me he was never in control.  In a rich man's house there is no place to spit but his face. Diogenes Of Sinope ID: 855989 · |

As I watched them come at the camera mounted in the Washington Monument (an AMAZING shot if I do say so!) I felt a great sense of relief. Hi Ho- the W is gone, the W is gone! Why didn't you get rid of him after the first period then? He was after all elected for the second period. It's not that I defend him or anything, living in Europe I have little insight in your political system, but when he wasn't kicked out after his first period, where he won with that Supreme Court decision, I assume the majority after all wanted him to continue. He won that second election without any doubts, with a majority of the votes. So he must have done something well, I presume. Again, I am not an American, I just conclude from what I observe. And an elected President deserves respect. I don't remember that even Nixon was buh'ed at openly to his face when Ford took over. If my memory serves me well, it was back in 1974 after all (I'm old! :-O ::gasp::) EDIT: According to the Wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_W._Bush#2004_Presidential_candidacy Bush carried thirty-one of fifty states for a total of 286 electoral votes. He won an absolute majority of the popular vote (50.7% to his opponent's 48.3%).[68] The last President to win an absolute majority of the popular vote had been Bush's father in the 1988 election. Additionally, it was the first time since Herbert Hoover's election in 1928 that a Republican president was elected alongside re-elected Republican congressional majorities in both Houses. Bush's 2.5% margin of victory was the narrowest for a victorious incumbent President up for re-election since Woodrow Wilson's 3.1% margin of victory against Charles Evans Hughes in 1916.
