Mugsy, what a brilliant idea. I’ll definitely chip in-money well spent. Maybe that could be our first project under changing the world. And we should send all the attorneys in the completely politicized justice dep’t to wait on them, hand and foot. Maybe Rush and Ann could go for entertainment-after all we shouldn’t leave them with nothing to do. As Mary Lou quoted “a mind is a terrible thing to waste”.
Or, in Ms. Coulter’s case, a waste is a terrible thing to mind….. (Oh, now, Mugsy, stop that. You’re setting a terrible example for Junior!)
There you go George…sucking wind like you’ve been doing for almost 8 years. Don’t hold your breath waiting for compliments…you may turn blue.

I’ve not read the previous comments. And I am up early to watch the semi-finals at Wimbledon, so I am in a good mood.
Happy Birthday, Mr. President. My birthday wish in your honor is for a problem free election so that as you leave office, there will be, of course, a celebration for the new President and for some of us a grateful nod in your direction for keeping America safe these last seven years.

Bonnie,
Hi-I know this is off the subject, but are you rooting for anyone in the finals. I like them all, but would like to see Nadal win Wimb and Fed win the French. And I am rooting for Venus, as she is the “senior” of the sisters. Just thought I ‘d ask. have a great weekend.
I think little Georgie is a present well deserved to all of the Americans who voted for him, twice! Georgie- he can’t help what he is - the real blame should go to the morons who voted for him to be the world’s super power PRESIDENT TWICE - because they wanted to have a beer with him. Great criteria! Well here’s your opportunity - 4th of July weekend and his birthday - all of you get with Bushie and go drink yourselves silly. The rest of us will try to clean up the mess you have made over the past 7+ years.
From a former lifelong, multi-generation Republican!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your arrogance and cockiness became your strongest abilities. And our country suffered from this Mr. President. As each year of your service (????) passes I have become more and more disappointed at your inability to sustain the beliefs of many Americans.
Yes, I will wish you a happy birthday on the same weekend I wish my country a happy birthday. And, on my country’s birthday, I also will remember the Americans who have given their lives so needlessly on the battlefields. Next year I will remember the day of America’s birthday. However, yours I will not.
I still fill you are one of the best presidents we have ever had, why not sign an excecative order allowing us to drill in alaska, and off shore, and permanent removeval of IRS before you leave office, what have you to lose, the Dem’s hate you, so Kick Butt.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
And it’s this level of ignorance that allowed this travesty to occur. The thing the founding fathers feared most was an uneducated, ignorant electorate….Res ipsa loquitur….
Lemme guess, Gary, Red State?

You may “fill’ that Dumya’s the best prez ever….but the historians have voted, and 66% voted him the worse in US history.
And Americans overwhelmingly chose him as a worse villain than Saddam, OBL, Kim Jong II, the Prez of Iran, or The Prince of Darkness, Satan. Pretty hard to out-poll Satan as evil—-but your man Bushie did it. Good job, Bushie!

Gosh, what a question––one could spend sleepless nights thinking of what kinds of wishes one would want to convey. But then I remembered that when asked what was his favorite book–––this was back in 2000––he said, “The Very Hungry Caterpillar.” For those of you who are not familiar with this classic children’s tale by Eric Carle it’s hero, the caterpillar, is defined almost entirely by the strength of his appetites; the bug’s progress through slices of cake and a variety of fruits appears to be insatiable. Far from being punished for his indulgence, he suffers no more than a mild tummy ache before being transformed into a butterfly. Hmmmm, I’m thinking here, how about coming up with a book of my own––a sort of revisionist hungry canterpillar but instead of food that this creature consumes, it’s WORDS–Bush’s own words––all the lies, all the denials, all the great job, Brownies, all the false promises, etc. I could get my pal, Josie, to illustrate––brush up on those mushroom cloud pictures, sweetie–––but the ending wouldn’t be the metamorphous of bug to butterfly, but bug to moth whose life span is no longer than a few days. Then I’d wrap it up and send Special Delivery To Mr. Presdent––I’d deliberately misspell his title, just to give him a chuckle–but then, maybe he wouldn’t notice. So now that I’ve decided all that, what for the wrapping paper? The silver shimmer or the Batman comic one––sliver shimmer? Batman comic? Oh, shit, another sleepless night!
