George W. Bush

This is great: “Barack Obama sent Navy Seal Team 6 to take out Osama Bin Laden in Abbottabad and made a statement confirming it on Sunday night. Former President George W. Bush (Will Ferrell) finally responds to who and what has been terrorizing him for years.”

Time Magazine catches up with the kids who were in the classroom with President Bush on the morning on 9/11. One thing they’d like to tell Bush’s critics — like liberal filmmaker Michael Moore, whose 2004 documentary Fahrenheit 911 disparaged Bush for lingering almost 10 minutes with the Booker students after getting word that two planes [...]

“Earlier this evening, President Obama called to inform me that American forces killed Osama bin Laden, the leader of the al Qaeda network that attacked America on September 11, 2001. I congratulated him and the men and women of our military and intelligence communities who devoted their lives to this mission. They have our everlasting [...]

Delusion Points

by James Furbush on November 10, 2010

Let’s not fool ourselves into quickly reevaluating Dubya’s presidency, just because he has a new book out to sell.  That’s the argument by Stephen M. Walt in Foreign Policy: In anticipation of tomorrow’s release of Bush’s memoir, Decision Points, this line of thinking is reinforcing one of the Beltway press corps’ favorite rituals: the “was [...]

Is anyone following the developments at Sundance? Because, I for one am not.  However, with that said, I nearly died of intrigue at the thought of a nearly six-hour airplane conversation between director Bryan Singer (The Usual Suspects, X-Men, Apt Pupil, Valkyrie) and President George W. Bush. “Politics aside, I did find him to be [...]

Even though he doesn’t miss being president, the spotlight, etc., it’s a bit weird to see George W. Bush back in the spotlight in this PSA with Bill Clinton. I can’t believe I’m about to write this, but between this, his solid high fives with Jerry Jones and the year’s distance of him not in [...]

Barton Gellman in the WaPo reports today that Cheney has revealed his frustration with the former president: “In the second term, he felt Bush was moving away from him,” said a participant in the recent gathering, describing Cheney’s reply. “He said Bush was shackled by the public reaction and the criticism he took. Bush was [...]

It’s almost too easy to compile a funny list when you have excellent source material to work with.  This is also, waaaaay less creepy than the Jim Carrey in a bathtub top 10 from last night.  No seriously, that was some awkward list making, involving Larry King.  I literally haven’t been able to get it [...]

A message from your president about his last night in office. According to the Lawrence Plays Piano tumblr (via), the show might not be worth watching in person. It’s a good thing HBO will be broadcasting the event live. Recently, Ferrell tested some of the material for his one-man Broadway show at the Largo theater [...]

Yowzas, they really don’t like President Bush in Iraq do they?  Or at least one Iraqi journalist doesn’t.  How many White House Press Corp wished they’d done this at some point?  But President Bush has excellent reactionary skills.  It’s like he’s a wily mongoose.  The shoes don’t even come close to hitting him.  “All I [...]
