don’t miss your chance!

say “farewell to george w bush”...

(i’m waiting for my message to be approved, but basically, my comment was that it was with pleasure that i looked back over the past 8 years and knew that the legacy he held so dear had amounted to nothing positive.  that it must be absolutely crushing to realize he had a moment to unite the world and he frittered it away by promoting a failed ideology.  and that i hope he gets everything he rightly deserves. 

bush will say farewell to the nation tonite and i can only hope that his speech writers take a second look at what he plans to say, so that he doesn’t make the type of idiotic statements that he made today (yeah, yeah, i know, LOL):

In Africa, we helped resolve old conflicts and form new partnerships to confront hunger and disease and poverty. I’m often asked, you know, how come you, from Texas, care about Africa? And I remind people—I’m reminded of one of my first conversations with Condi. And she said, if I’m going to work with you, I want you to make sure you focus on Africa. She gets a lot of credit for the focus on Africa.

so, in essence, being from texas, he only cares about africa because condi told him to.  O.O

and…

In the Middle East, we stood with dissidents and young democracies. Sometimes that was not easy to do. But we stood strong with those young democracies. We outlined a vision of two democratic states, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace and security.

because as we can see THAT’S working out really well.
