And, if he was surprised, found it amazing that he was elected, think how shocked so many of us were on learning that took place! ARRGH!

He is a scream isn't he?
(That means funny in a daft way).
he sure took care of peace and prosperity real quick didn't he!
village idiot
Remarkable that one with so little could go so far... sigh.
Little wonder that we are in such a mess with diplomatic skills of that caliber. Wow.
Blessings!

As always, they make me shake my head.
Of, course, he really wasn't elected (at least not the first time...)
Jen: Enjoyed your previous post. As for your Bushisms, How in the h-ll did he get elected?
I'm going to miss him. I would vote for him again if I could just for the comedy relief.
I agree with Dr. Sardonicus, though I personally don't think he was elected EITHER time.
These would be funnier if we weren't in such a sad mess. Maybe Moron Sayings would be a more apt title. I continue to be profoundly irritated that he hasn't been impeached, but such is life, I guess.
These were fun.
I wish it was all that simple when we talk about war, we're really talking about peace.
