Bush~ism, I'd laugh it he wasn't so laughable that it makes me sad

Let's make sure that there is certainty during uncertain times in our economy.
--George W. Bush
Washington, DC 06/02/2008

The one thing I AM certain of is the future of uncertainty with regards to our economy. Thanks, W for the legacy that will keep on giving/

The news used to clean his lines up they wouldn't publish his direct quotes - like the time he said "There is an old saying in Tennessee -- I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee -- that says, fool me once, shame on -- shame on you. Fool me --- you can't get fooled again."

When he said this I had heard it on the radio live and was floored. Then I check the news to get it right so I could make fun of it like a proper patriot and all I could find (at the time) was 'President says 'won't get fooled' by enemy'. There were variations on it but I guess it was 2002 and it wasn't yet time to point out (again) what a poor speaker and idiot he is. But the good news is that on the White House web page you can find all those gems directly.

Of course to save time, I just recommend you get the calendar version.
