It hasn't happened yet.  It'll be at 11:59 AM, January 20, 2009.

And he said it with a straight face, too.

I'm on board with the perch.  Must be the first time in his administration when I've agreed with - or believed - a word that son of a bitch has said.  Perch.

7.5 lb perch?  Pffft.  Lying out of his nether regions.  As any old time fisherman will tell you, those stories are total bunk.  Bush is no different, and likely worse.

Just when the Republicans are cratering, I'm not sure why it's such a good idea for progressives and Democrats to try to find and promote the things they've done that have actually worked.

The president's strong stand against the creation of human-animal hybrids in the last SOTU was quite inspirational.  

His proposed mission to Mars was also pretty visionary in a "where the hell did that come from" kind of way.

The Do Not Call list is probably his best accomplishment. It's actually even a teensy bit surprising, given that some big companies (the telemarketers) opposed it.

My vote is for the pretzel thing, just before it was dislodged.

Only yellow and white perch are found in the US.  The current worlds records for both of these fish are below 4.5 lbs, so Bush didn't catch a 7.5lb fish in his pond.  Not unless it was stocked with the nonindigenous Nile perch, which would be highly illegal.  Being illegal wouldn't stop Bush, but it is more likely pathological lying.

But, I must say that we all would have been much better off if Bush had spent all of the last six years on the shore of his pond catching fish.

He signed it.  After talking shit about it up to the moment he signed it, of course; he was against campaign finance reform before he was for it.

But I'm surprised he didn't say his favorite moment was when he cut the estate, dividend, and income taxes for the rich, gave billions to his friends in the medical and energy industries, blew up Iraq, or authorized torture.  You know, the stuff he and the Republicans actually wanted.

Someone should make t-shirts:

George Didn't Need to Be President to Catch that Perch.

Only two things I have agreed with Bush on so far.  The Do Not Call List, and the President's task report on the status of Puerto Rico .  The report outlines a method to move PR toward a non-territorial status, should PR decide to vote to resolve their current status issues.  

As a rabid anti-Bush Filipino American, I was pleasantly surprised that Bush in 2003 finally signed the bill granting Filipino World War II veterans the benefits that they were promised.  This bill gave Filipino veterans who fought along side Americans compelete health care benefits that all veterans receive.  Although the few remaining veterans are well into their 70's & 80's, they deserve this and more as they continue to fight for pension payments.

And we didn't bomb France.

Psychopathic delusional fool. This dolt is adolescent.

I'll give him props for creating the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands Marine National Monument.
I know it didn't cost him a thing to do since there are only about eight fishing boats that ply those waters, but it was the right thing to do and for the one and only time in his pResidency he actually did it.
