"Why don't we let stimulus package 1, which seemed like a good idea at the time, have a chance to kick in?"
~President George W. Bush
That, my friends, is what our *fine* American president said to the press in a recent speech in which he also denied that the country was sliding into an economic depression.
You can read the whole article here to see other stupid things he said in the same speech.
I just *love* how the man leading our country can so blatantly ignore the circumstances and continue blithely on his way, wearing rose-colored glasses. Brilliant. Fucking brilliant. The man is ignoring the sage observations of economists. He refuses to acknowledge what the rest of America plainly sees. And he's our president until Jan. 20, 2009. *sigh* Canada looks better and better every day.

and so far as their own identities -that's what scares me. A man who is running for president of a country he doesn't even refer to as his "mother country", a conniving bitch, and someone with the mentality of a used car salesman.
