The Farewell Address!
This is it right? This means that he is oh so close to leaving, Thank you Mr. W and don't let the door hit you or Dick Cheney shoot you on the way out.
Did a tear come to your eye? Actually for most it was a tear of joy, that he is finally leaving. If there is a just world then this administration will be charged with war crimes as soon as they walk out of the White House. The scary thing is that he could in essence pardon his administration including himself. No president has ever pardoned himself and yes you can pardon someone for a crime they have not yet been convicted of.
He still doesn't get it, he still doesn't get that he has lied to this country throughout his presidency, lied about campaign promises, mismanaged wars and the economy and failed to have anything that resembled an energy policy. He has instilled failed education programs that were underfunded and carried out ineffectively and he and his administration have knowingly allowed war crimes to occur against prisoners of war and have purposely spied on its own citizens. Its a laundry list a mile long. Iraq has universal health care because our government pays for it, we are stuck with a broken system. Bin Laden has not been caught who was the real mastermind of 9/11 and Al Qaeda is stronger now than it was 7 years ago. Its pathetic. You have not made us safer by invading Iraq, you have made us weaker, the money we have spent there could have been better spent here on healthcare, education and local law enforcement which is really what is going to stop terrorism. You keep our country safe by investing in the homeland, not in other lands overseas. You make us safer by keeping our military strong at home, not by losing thousands of lives trying to free a country in a part of the world that has always been and will always be a magnet for violence. You keep the money here and invest in the American people here at home!!! He is such a Dick, oh wait thats his vice president.I have held back over the last 10 days or so as we count down to his last days after hearing that speech I can hold back no more, Mr. Bush, you suck.
So as with all his speeches I sat there after thinking of this scene:
I watched some of it but, had to stop when I started to get the urge to go out to the mud room, get all the boots and shoes and start tossing at the big screen!
