One thing about G-Dub.

Look I get why people don't like him and how he messed up. It's well deserved. But just put those things aside in this thread if you will be so kind. Maybe we can just discuss the subject of this thread since we all know what Bush was now as a President.

So here it is:

Imo, he delivered one of the best modern day speeches in relative modern history when he delivered his famous bullhorn speech at the fallen towers. The lines he delivered on the cuff were exactly what the country needed to hear at the time and the delivery was perfection. And it was clearly off the cuff. I still get chills listening to it. What are some others thoughts not of G-Dub in particular, but this particular speech?
 
I think he's someone who should not have been a president, but I personally think he's a pretty good dude. He does a lot in his charity work and I think truly cares about people. And I don't think anything he did as president changes that, because for the most part everything they all do is staus quo.
 
oops got out of character there for a second.
George Bush doesn't care about black people!!
 
I feel like this reply is off topic but yet I can't help but feel:

I think that September 11, 2001 brought home the enormity of the job of the President of the US. I had friends who wouldn't have pissed on the guy if he were on fire who felt sympathetic and positive about him after that.

Let's not pretend that he didn't royally **** up everything after that, though. Really.

It was the exact right tone for that particular moment. The country needed to see a Pres standing in the rubble with a bullhorn looking pissed. It did that but I don't think it qualifies as a "speech." It was Bush, the ex-cheerleader doing probably the one thing he knew how to do, lead a crowd in a "Let's go get 'em cheer." Unfortunately the people we went after had nothing to do with the attack.
 
and he then followed that up with "Go shopping and they hate us for our freedom"

just saying

Yep.

Joe Biden, bless his heart, had a line in his stump speech—he was running for president in 2004, remember—and I heard it early on, in a couple of small rooms, and it resonated. He said that at that moment, G-Dub should have asked America to embark on a Manhattan Project, an Apollo Project, to wean ourselves from Middle East oil. I agree, wholeheartedly. What we did was just the opposite. Imagine what could have been different if we'd taken dumbass Joe Biden's advice instead of Dubya's.
 
Cheney's puppet. He ran the country not Dumbya.

I fvcking hate Cheney, the only person I hate in this world.

I am serious.
