George W. Bushisms V: New Ways to Harm Our Country

by Jacob Weisberg

George W. Bushisms V: New Ways to Harm Our Country Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

"I can only speak to myself."

True — and yet we must listen. Sometimes his accidental wit speaks louder than any prepared statement.

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."

"I always jest to people, the Oval Office is the kind of place where people stand outside, they're getting ready to come in and tell me what for, and they walk in and get overwhelmed by the atmosphere. And they say, 'Man, you're looking pretty.'"

"I'm honored to shake the hand of a brave Iraqi citizen who had his hand cut off by Saddam Hussein."

Thanks to the faithful work of Jacob Weisberg, the wisdom of George W. Bush — America's Malapropist in Chief — has been carefully preserved for the ages in annual editions. Now that the president is armed with a new (and unprecedented!) popular electoral victory, America can breathe a sigh of relief — or, as the president once put it, we can "thank our blessings." The language experiments will continue. Stand-up comedians will enjoy full employment.

With "George W. Bushisms V," the second term truly begins.

Synopsis:

This uproarious fifth installment in the runaway hit series proves that President George W. Bush was keeping the "really" good stuff for his second term. 40 photos.
