Bush Haiku
A short poem made up entirely of actual quotations from George W. Bush. Arranged by Washington Post writer, Richard Thompson.

MAKE THE PIE HIGHER
I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.
It's a world of madmen and uncertainty
And potential mental losses.
Rarely is the question asked
Is our children learning?
Will the highways of the Internet
Become more few?
How many hands have I shaked?
They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.
I know that the human being
And the fish can coexist.
Families is where our nation finds hope,
Where our wings take dream.
Put food on your family!
Knock down the tollbooth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher!
I am the Decider

Yes, he does say (and do) dumb things sometimes. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like his replacement (from the current front-runners on both sides) will be any better.

I especially like this metaphor: I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.

That can't be a GWB original..............

I think maybe he flubbed the line and dropped the important verb indicating his relationship with the pant leg.

hahaha

It's just too eloquent for him.

Snopes cannot place the quote:

C'mon, that's attributed to Molly Ivins for God's sake! She's not only a brilliant writer, but she's dead.

So is the pit bull pis$ing on the leg or humping it?
