Funny George W. Bush Moments

We find George W Bush personally likeable and part of that appeal lies in his
interpersonal skills, his verbal gaffes and his tendency to jumble
words, some of which we offer to our readers here.  None is meant as a
political comment.

Will and Guy’s Funny Jokes Courtesy of George W. Bush

Will and Guy are not political animals.  Indeed we would admit to
knowing very little about politics and we would claim to know almost
nothing about politics in the USA.  It would be wrong of us to
gratuitously poke fun at George Bush or at his 8 years in the office of
President of the USA, however, he has made many people laugh with his
gaffes and his verbal gymnastics.

We appreciate that with the world in its present situation [Iraq and
Afghanistan] that some people may find it tasteless to dwell on the
President as a comic turn: we would argue that humour can often lead to
a relaxation of aggression.  Comedy and tragedy often go hand in hand.

  asked: is our children learning?

  with us. A West Texas girl, just like me.

  involves Saddam Hussein because of the nature of Saddam Hussein, the
  history of Saddam Hussein, and his willingness to terrorise himself.

George W. Bush Monument Committee

Dear Friends:

We have the distinguished honor of being on the committee to raise $5,000,000 for a monument to George W. Bush. The committee originally wanted to put him on Mt. Rushmore until we
discovered there was not enough room for two more faces. We then decided to erect a statue of George in the Washington, DC, Hall of Fame.

We were in a quandary as to where the statue should be
placed. It was not proper to place it beside the statue of George Washington, who never told a lie, or beside Richard Nixon, who never told the truth, since George could never tell the difference.

We
finally decided to place it beside Christopher Columbus, the greatest Republican of them all. He left not knowing where he was going, and when he got there he did not know where he was. He returned not knowing
where he had been, decimated the well-being of the majority of the population while he was there, and did it all on someone else’s money.

Thank you,
George W. Bush Monument Committee

P.S.
We have raised $1.35 so far

The Politics of
Deng Xiaoping and George W Bush

Deng Xiaoping, then leader of China, and George W Bush, President of the USA,
met to discuss whose army was the bravest.

They decided to abandon politics and have a competition whereby a soldier from each army was take to
the top of a tall building in Beijing and told to jump off to show their
bravery.

The American soldier looked at the fall and turned to President Bush and
said, ‘I’m sorry, sir, but I can’t do this because I have a wife and small
child.’ President Bush understood totally.

The Chinese soldier jumped off the skyscraper without even looking. Sometime
later, having miraculously survived the fall, he spoke to President Bush who
asked him, ‘You are very brave, but why did you jump?’

Answering Bush, while looking at Deng Xiaoping, the Chinese soldier replied,
‘Because, sir, I also have a wife and small child.’
