Olympic Revelry
Posted on August 11, 2008 by andrew- Filed Under 2008 Olympics, George W Bush | 1 Comment
So I took Friday off for my birthday. And by taking the day off, I mean that I went to the DMV because I of course waited until the last possible minute to renew my driver’s license. When I got home with a fresh new District license in my wallet, I discovered that Russia was [...]
Only Gay I Mean, Effeminate Men Go To Gyms

Via Sadly, No!, the Wall Street Journal is anxious to tell you of yet another way in which Barack Obama is Not A Normal Guy:
But in a nation in which 66% of the voting-age population is overweight and 32% is obese, could Sen. Obama’s skinniness be a liability? Despite his visits to waffle houses, ice-cream [...]

On Forgetful Reporters
Posted on July 17, 2008 by andrew- Filed Under 2008 presidential election, Barack Obama, George W Bush, John McCain, the media | Leave a Comment
Marc Ambinder engages in some detailed analysis in an attempt to answer the following question:
When presidents travel overseas, the opposition party generally refrains from partisan criticism. But what’s the rule for presidential candidates? Sen. Barack Obama leaves soon for a long trip across the pond; will John McCain use the occasion to attack? Or will [...]
Our President Officially Has Senioritis

I’ve seen different British versions of this story linked a couple of times this afternoon, but I can’t seem to find any accounts of the incident in American media. Not that we Americans ought to be embarrassed or anything.
The American leader, who has been condemned throughout his presidency for failing to tackle climate change, ended [...]

I think the entirety of George W. Bush’s time in office can be summed up in one simple headline:
World Trade Center construction faces more delays
Seven years and four months to the day after this president promised to rebuild the site of the worst terrorist attack in American history, which occurred on his watch, he will [...]
Nice Of Them To Finally Admit It

Jonathan Martin has an interesting article at the Politico discussing the current non-existence of any “Swift Boat”-style groups preparing to fight for the Republicans in this presidential election. While sources from both parties tell Martin they expect the eventual emergence of the groups, no one has yet come forward with the willingness and the money [...]

Simple Answers To Simple Questions

CNN:
Bush: An asset or a liability for McCain?
Liability.
They don’t get much simpler than this.
Here’s a slightly harder question: What will it take for the media to finally believe that Americans widely (and justifiably) view George W Bush as the worst president of the modern era (at least)?

Disaster Wherever He Goes

Kevin Drum writes:
I think this business about politics stopping at water’s edge has always been overblown, honored more in the breach than the observance. Regardless, though, I agree with Haggai: if this rule ever made sense, it doesn’t anymore. Travel is too ubiquitous, television and the internet are too global, and audiences are too sophisticated [...]

Another Pushback Against President Douchebag
Posted on May 15, 2008 by andrew- Filed Under 2008 democratic primary, 2008 presidential election, Barack Obama, Democratic Party, George W Bush, Hillary Clinton | Leave a Comment
Biden’s “bullshit” is the fun one, but this one does a bit more to prove my earlier point: This time around, the Democrats aren’t going to take any Republican crap lying down.
Hillary, today in Rapid City, South Dakota, defended Obama from President Bush’s apparent comparison of him to Neville Chamberlain, Ken Vogel reports.
She told reporters:

Good News Comes Out Of Our Shameful President’s Shameful Attacks
Posted on May 15, 2008 by andrew- Filed Under 2008 elections, Barack Obama, Democratic Party, George W Bush, Joe Biden, John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi, Rahm Emanuel | Leave a Comment
Barack Obama responded almost immediately to President Douchebag’s appeasement nonsense (as I would have noted in my previous post had that been the point I was making at the time):
“It is sad that President Bush would use a speech to the Knesset on the 60th anniversary of Israel’s independence to launch a false political attack,” [...]
Politics Well Across The Water’s Edge
Posted on May 15, 2008 by andrew- Filed Under 2008 presidential election, George W Bush, Israel | 1 Comment
Our president, in addition to his many other deficiencies, has absolutely no class whatsoever.
In comments apparently directed at the likely Democratic nominee, President Bush jumped full force into the presidential contest today, telling the Israeli Knesset in Jerusalem that any U.S. foreign policy allowing negotiations with terrorists should be unequivocally discounted as detrimental to stability [...]
We Always Knew He Could Do It

Huh. I thought we’d already crossed this milestone (how had we not?), but everyone is mentioning it today, so I guess I was wrong.
Anyway, President Douchebag is the most disapproved of president since modern polling began.
Worse than LBJ during Vietnam, worse than Nixon when the Watergate tapes emerged, worse than Ford when he pardoned Nixon, [...]
So Much Silliness

Dumb. Obama acknowledges that John McCain would at least be better than W. This is what he gets for his troubles.
Hillary Rodham Clinton says Barack Obama was cheering on John McCain…
The Associated Press says the Illinois Democrat’s words about the presumptive GOP presidential nominee “threatened to undercut Obama’s efforts — and those of the entire [...]
I Suppose Only Liberal Elitists Want Underprivileged Children To Have Books
Posted on April 14, 2008 by andrew- Filed Under George W Bush, Reading is Fundamental, education, federal budget | Leave a Comment
Via Indecision, I see that the president has determined reading to be less than fundamental:
President Bush’s proposed 2009 budget eliminates all the funding for Reading Is Fundamental’s book distribution program that has, since 1966, provided books to underprivileged children.
According to RIF CEO/president Carol Rasco, if Bush’s budget is approved, 4.6 million children will not receive [...]

Don’t feel too bad, George. The Pope’s a popular guy. I’m sure he has to turn down many dinner invitations. Sure, it’s a bit embarrassing to have a dinner in someone’s honor and not have the honoree bother to show up, especially if you’re the president of the United States, but at least he politely [...]

(Part six in an ongoing series)
How much money President Douchebag made last year.
Although it is a bit funny that he announced he would be releasing his tax returns as though anyone had been asking to see them.
