Tell Me Again: Suckers!

Tell me again why we thought GWB was so stupid:

If George W. Bush had given Gordon Brown a set of
inexpensive and incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon
Brown had given him a thoughtful and historically
significant gift, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod
containing videos of his speeches, would you have thought
this embarrassingly narcissistic and tacky?

If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, would
you have approved?

If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the
non-existent "Austrian language," would you have
brushed it off as a minor slip?

If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisors
with people who cannot seem to keep current on their income
taxes, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had been so Spanish illiterate as to
refer to "Cinco de Cuatro" in front of the Mexican
ambassador when it was the fourth of May (Cuatro de Mayo),
and continued to flub it when he tried again, would you have
winced in embarrassment?

If George W. Bush had misspelled the word advice would you
have hammered him for it for years like Dan Quayle and
potatoe as "proof" of what a dunce he is?

If George W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to
go plant a single tree on "Earth Day," would you
have concluded he's a hypocrite?

If George W. Bush's
administration had okayed Air Force One flying low over
millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown
Manhattan causing widespread panic, would you have wondered
whether they actually "get" what happened on 9-11?

If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a
teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press
conference, would you have laughed and said this is more
proof of how he inept he is on his own and is really
controlled by smarter men behind the scenes?

If George W. Bush had failed to send aid to
flood victims throughout the Midwest with more people
killed or made homeless than in New Orleans, would you want
it made into a major ongoing political issue with claims of
racism and incompetence?

If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major
corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority
to do so, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had proposed to double the
national debt --which had taken more than two centuries to
accumulate -- in one year, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the
debt again within 10 years, would you
have approved?

If George W. Bush had reduced your retirement plan's
holdings of GM stock by 90% and given the unions a majority
stake in GM, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had spent hundreds of thousands of
dollars to take Laura Bush to a play in NYC, would you have
approved?

So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that
makes him so brilliant and impressive? Can't think of
anything? Don't worry. He's done all this in 6
months -- so you'll have three years and six months to
come up with an answer.
