for some reason i watched all the way through. although i have little respect, i thought his closing remark was really good. something like "some days you're happy, some days you're not, but you are always joyous to lead the great united states of america." it was a good line.

Whoops - too far Dan. He's the only one who can make that joke.

If only. What a terrible painting.

Lloyd @3, any painting of him, by definition, is a terrible painting.

He looks so freaked out in the painting...or is it douchey?

He looks so sad and helpless these days. I almost feel sorry for him.

But I'd still sign up for the pitchfork-wielding mob.

Presidential Portrait FAIL.

Is there an indictment party? Because I'd totally go to that.

@7
Nobody says that any more.

Aren't there supposed to be horns on his head and a pitch fork in his hand?

Sweetest words in the English language when spoken by the Bushie.

Bad painting, though. he has a definate 'kill me now' look on his face.

I thought we fired him.

Can't he just leave in disgrace already?

I kinda like that he started off with that joke. It implies that -- suddenly, and for no apparent purpose -- he has gotten in touch with how much of the country feels about him. Weird.

Savage, you are nothing but a leftist hater.

George W. Bush will one day go down as one of the great presidents. Mark my words.

He and Ronald Reagan have more courage than any of the losers in the Democrat Party combined.

Viva Bush!

I thought it was one of his better speeches. Probably because it was so short.

What a horrible portrait. Poor guy, even his visual legacy sucks.
