Last year, Bush's best, favorite day was 9/11. He often joked he "won the Trifecta" and Repubs would laugh. Now, it is suddenly his worst day. I hope the day he is arrested and charged with war crimes will be his worst day. And my best day.
- President Bush says his best moment in office was the time he caught a 7 1/2-pound largemouth bass.ADVERTISEMENT
During his more than five years in office, Bush has traveled the world's most impressive cities, met with world leaders and entertained celebrities.
But when the German newspaper Bild asked him to name his best and worst moments as president, Bush gave an offbeat answer about the best moment, while giving a more predictable response about his worst.
"The most awful moment was September the 11th, 2001," Bush said, adding that it took time to understand the depth of the terrorist attacks on the United States. "I would say the toughest moment of all was after the whole reality sunk in and I was trying to help the nation understand what was going on, and at the same time, be empathetic for those who had lost lives."
Bush admitted it was not easy to pick a best moment because "I've had a lot of great moments," according to a transcript of the Friday interview released Sunday.
"I would say the best moment was when I caught a 7 1/2-pound largemouth bass on my lake," Bush said, laughing.
How about when this drunk dropped his little black doggie on the airport tarmac, knocking it out while he and his killer hausfrau laughed while children cried. Actually, his excuse on 9/11 for not doing squat diddly except read "My Pet Goat" was, he didn't want to scare the children. Yet after the WTC fell and the Pentagon was attacked, he put children behind him and then suddenly announced that America was under attack and the little tots burst into tears.
Great. That should have given him a whizz.
He looked utterly pleased in all the photos of him flying around the nation, avoiding us, on 9/11.
Now, he wants us to think that day was a terrible day for him. While fishing was a fun time. Well, why can't this clown row out into the lake and stay there. Won't hurt. Almost as good as going to jail.

He seems to be progressing. At least now, after a few years in office, he can win a battle of the brains with a Perch. Cheney couldn't even handle matching wits with drugged, flightless birds who, I suspect, purposely tricked him into shooting his lawyer friend in the face. In fact the male quail actually presents itself to be sacrificed as a target in order to save the hen and chicks making them not only more intelligent but morally superior to Cheney and Bush who would sacrifice their babies, their wives or all of the peasants rather than miss a meal or mar a photo op.

Elaine, kudos on the puns in the book cover in your illustration. "My Pet Goatee" -- har!
Yep, the neocons sure do move just like the Trotskyites.

Thanks, Mark. One doesn't have to struggle much to find stupid things to draw when one is making Bush comix.
