: Presidential comparison quiz

 

 

If George W. Bush had made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics, would you have approved?

 

If George W. Bush had given Tony Blair a set of inexpensive and useless (to Tony Blair's UK video formatting) DVDs, when Tony Blair 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 approved?

 

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 advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current on their income taxes, would you have approved?

 

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?

 

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 10 weeks -- so you'll have three years and nine-and-a-half months to come up with an answer.

CRAWFORD, Tex., Apr. 6 -- By the time President Bush returns to Washington after the longest presidential vacation in 32 years, he will have spent all or part of 54 days since the inauguration at his parched but beloved ranch. That's almost a quarter of his presidency.

 

Throw in four days last month at his parents' seaside estate in Kennebunkport, Maine, and 38 full or partial days at the presidential retreat at Camp David, and Bush will have spent 42 percent of his presidency at vacation spots or en route.

 

Many of those days are weekends, and the Camp David stays have included working visits with foreign leaders. But administration officials, who initially believed that regular trips to the Texas ranch enhanced Bush's image as a rugged outsider, are acting like they may be worried about the perception that he is loafing.

Responding to criticism from Democrats and their fears of long-term damage to Bush's image, his advisers have piled on so many activities for this month-long vacation that the president is likely to feel he is marooned at an overly ambitious summer camp. The White House held a briefing today to announce that Bush had run four miles early this morning, held a 45-minute meeting with four senior officials here and talked by telephone with national security adviser Condoleezza Rice about Macedonia.

 

Bush will "spend a good portion of the time working," spokesman Scott McClellan told reporters today.

 

Yes, how quickly we forget, for a while that summer people were saying the "real" President was Cheney well unfortunately, a few months later, it would all change.

Come on Jeff, maybe he will improve and you won't have to cry yourself to sleep at night. If you can't shake the addiction of obama then volunteer at ACORN anonymous.

 

 

I'm not the one creating pro-Obama threads or anti-republican threads at the drop of a hat around here!

 

Anytime you want to go mano-mano on thread creation...there is lots of fodder out there!

:happy feet:

Jeff, everyone knows the president, whomever is in office, continues working while at Camp David or wherever they are. Including TX. There are daily meetings, briefings, and he is in touch with everyone electronically.
