I don't much care what he says, just as long as it ends in "goodbye".

That bastard better not preempt The Office!

I have no intentions of watching this farce by that criminal. As far as keeping us safe, 9/11 happened on HIS watch - and he let it happen. Remember "Bin Laden Determined To Attack U.S."? Just what Bush and his pals needed to turn us into a nation of fearfull followers. GWB, just go the hell away and never never come back!

Bush cannot be allowed to get away with claiming to have made "tough decisions." What "tough decision" did he ever make? To lower taxes on the members of his own political and economic class? To give his cronies access to our wildernesses and atmosphere to increase their profits? To send other people, their children and parents, into harm's way while he and his sat safe at home? Did he attempt to craft a sane health policy in this country? That would've been tough. Did he try to get gas taxes raised, mileage standards raised, really get us off foreign oil? That would've been tough. You can think of a million things he could've done that would have required fewer vacations, more days at work, more pushback from the people who put him in office. He did none of them. Yet, he continues to crow about his "tough decisions." Please, someone put a cork in the chimp.

What is the deal with the news today? I keep I keep having to check to see whether I'm reading the Onion.

Yes, and when you took office, how long had it been since someone tried to blow up the World Trade Center?

Seven years, you say?

Huh.

-- ARG

"Bush will go out by reminding us of a very important fact about his presidency -- 9/11:"
What, is he running to be the next Guiliani?

"America has gone more than seven years without another terrorist attack on our soil."

"And another thing - I never did understand why the terrorists want to attack our soil! In other words, buildings or people I could understand, but why do they want to hurt our soil? I guess it just goes to prove that they hate our freedoms! Attack me once, shame on you, but soil me twice - you hate my freedom!"

"That's all, folks - got a meetin' with Jack Daniels now!"

Here's your hat; what's your hurry?

Like Blago, I'm prone to rhymes when under stress.
So, for you George, "Don't let the door hit ya, where the good Lord split ya"!

...Longfellow, I think!

He needs a little time to consider his failures, although, he may never get to the point of accepting responsibility. He may take up booze and drugs again, if indeed he hasn't already, as he seems drunk half the time. His faith in his magic god who wanted him to be president must be shaken, considering how poorly he performed, no matter what gloss he attempts to place on his legacy. He was the unwitting and dimwitted tool of a dark counselor, Dick Cheney, who manipulated him into a disastrous response to the disaster of 9/11. On every front both foreign and domestic, George W. Bush is an ignoble failure. He was arrogant in victory, and pathetic in the defeat of those failures. I do not pity him, nor do I hold out much hope that he will grow in his retirement. I hope his crimes are fully exposed.

I do not feel the least bit sorry for this arrogant coward. I hope that throughout his retirement years he continues to hear reports and see new books about the horrible corrupt failure that he was. Maybe he will hit the bottle and stay so drunk he doesn't know what is going on. I don't care.

I just can't beleive that he is actually finally gone and we don't have to ever listen to hin again and feel that terrible shame and anger.

He did NOT act with the best interests of the country in mind!

If he was to have any sincerity at all he had to do this on his own. I read were he had "guests." That was it for me, I didn't bother to tune in.

As for no additional attacks, any Intel person will tell you that they don't know why. That they expected a poison gas follow-up to 9/11, that almost certainly counldn't have been stopped. But it(attack) has mysteriously never come?

Was it a credit to Bush (as he's claiming) or have we just lucked out because the terrorists aren't motivated at this point in time for whatever reason?

He might as well as have said, "I had to destroy America to save it."
