Poetry by our friend, "President" Bush
MAKE THE PIE HIGHER
by George W. Bush
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! Make the pie higher!

This is so old that it was actually posted on azprosports.com before its demise.

Ah, didn't know that.
It's a combination of different things that Bush has said over his administration.

Oh. So it is like those people who believe the Bible contradicts itself by taking verses and sayings out of context to make it appear as if it says something it really doesn't.
OK. Very funny.
I wonder what we could come up with for Clinton?

What are you talking about? This isn't misquoting him, this isn't implying any meaning, just the actual words out of the man's mouth. He is an idiot who has no concept of grammar.
For example: Rarely is the question asked, is our children learning.
How is that taking anything out of context?

Clearly the President was speaking in ebonics in your example.

What a joke.
Clinton's strongpoint was public speaking, you won't find many times where he screwed up. For Bush, you could literally find 100 times or more, where he screwed up badly.
Bush has his strongpoints too, but I'm still looking for them.

Yeah, he just lied all the time.
Sorry, I'd rather have someone who tells the truth not so well than someone who lies very well.

And you don't think that Bush has lied?
All politicians lie. I'd rather have a President lie about his personal information, than information that leads to the deaths of Americans.

And Bush is such a bad public speaking, that one has to question if he is intelligent enough to lead us.
His performance in school, the military, and other endeavors leads any sane person to wonder if he has gotten this far from the silver spoon in his mouth.

Oh, this again?!
Do you REALLY want to lose on this topic again?
Though I suppose it is understandable, you equating public speaking finesse with intelligence. I also find it understandable you prefering a smooth talking liar to the unpolished truth.

DID I EVER SAY THAT I PREFER CLINTON OVER BUSH?
Both are scum bags in my opinion. Don't put words in my mouth, that is very dishonest of you.

I can't believe you have the gall to claim you never said that you prefer Clinton over Bush.

hmmm ... let's see ... who would I rather lead my country??? An intelligent self-serving womanizing liar or an unintelligent (which GWB is not ... he is very intelligent) person who I can trust more???
I would much rather have the leader I can trust more regardless of intelligence.
