Watch Out For The Fuzzy Ones!

Is intelligence learned or inherited? It's a question that has puzzled scientists and philosophers since the beginning of time. On the one hand, you can argue that this book proves the latter conviction, since it's obvious that Papa Bush is as grammatically challenged as baby Bush, but on the other hand, who taught Baby to speak? Seriously though, this book is hilarious, a welcome companion piece to more recent versions attacking the more recent Bush. I've owned it since it came out and it still makes me laugh. If you can find it, buy it.

Bushisms/President George Herbert Walker Bush in his own wor

If you are looking for symbolism or imagery I might suggest a different book, but for some of the funniest quotes this side of Yogi Berra I definitly recommed "Bushisms". (Of course if you are a big Bush/Republican fan AND have NO sense of humor this one may not be for you.)

An hilarious homage to the not-so-eloquent former president

When it comes to public speaking, most modern presidents have their speeches written for them. But when the time arrives for them to speak their own thoughts, take cover. In "Bushisms", the editors of the 'New Republic' have collected some choice examples of the 41st president's sometimes incomprehensible, often hilarious words of wisdom. A sample: "When I need some free advice about Saddam Hussein, I turn to country music." You may not believe this phrase and others far more zany were spoken by the commander-in-chief, but you will be rolling on the floor in laughter
