"The real embarrassment to Americans are people like you that daily make fun of OUR President. If we really do think the President that WE all have elected is not qualified, shouldn't the jokes be pointed towards you and me (the voters)?

Um.
We ALL didn't elect Bush.
Just like we ALL didn't elect Clinton.

"If we really do think the President that WE all have elected is not qualified..."
Unless you've been living in a cave, you know that Bush lost the popular vote in 2000. He won by a narrow margin in 2004. He's hardly the president that "we all have elected." Nevertheless, he was elected by the process in place and therefore deserves as much respect as his character and behavior dictates so...

Bush is funniest when he's not trying to be:

"I think -- tide turning -- see, as I remember -- I was raised in the desert, but tides kind of -- it's easy to see a tide turn -- did I say those words?" --George W. Bush, asked if the tide was turning in Iraq, Washington, D.C., June 14, 2006

I like Bush, I really respect him and I like his humor.
This world would be boring if everyone was the same.

Must be a paid neocon blitz today.
Didn't the jokes written for George go over well? I admit I laughed but then I appreciate good satire and he can unwittingly provide a lot of it. As an independent I prefer either a good laugh or just the facts.
Some of the rude comments are just sad. In a debate the guy that can't back his facts and succumbs to anger or name calling is usually declared the loser but this is real life.
We all have opinions like a certain part of our anatomy. Let's keep it civil.
