Sure. And hillbillies would like to be called Sons of the Soil, but it isn't going to happen.

 
Calmamity [TotalFark] 2008-11-28 02:08:26 PM  
Yeah, and I'd like to be known as Cheesepants the Unmentionable, but the facts just don't back me up.

 
Whamdangler 2008-11-28 02:23:12 PM  
I would love to be known as "that really rich guy", but so far, that hasn't panned out.

Hell, I want a pony too.

Good luck with that Georgie.

...one of the
Adequate, forgettable,
Occasionally regrettable
Caretaker presidents of the U-S-A

I'd like to be known as the man who made Jennifer Anniston happy, but it aint gonna happen either.

You still have 2 months, get to work on it.

I would like to bang Alyson Hannigan, but that ain't happening either.

What a dumbarse.

 
Benevolent Misanthrope [TotalFark] 2008-11-28 03:22:45 PM  
Yeah - I'd like to be [known] as somebody who found a solution to poverty and world hunger, and changed the entire population of the world into reasonable beings. So what's your point?

 
NeverDrunk23 2008-11-28 03:39:01 PM  
St_Francis_P: Sure. And hillbillies would like to be called Sons of the Soil, but it isn't going to happen.

Done in one.

He could have been. But he picked the wrong people and gave them the wrong orders during the occupation. I can't believe this guy.

"We said loud and clear to educators, parents, and children that we expect the best for every child, that we believe every child can learn, and that in return for federal money we expect there to be an accountability system in place to determine whether every child is learning to read, write and add and subtract," Bush said.

And the guy downtown was loud and clear that I was going to hell for not believing in Jesus, but do you think I listened?

 
CravenMorehead 2008-11-28 03:58:20 PM  
Yeah, that would be nice but instead he'll be remembered as the guy that attacked a sovereign nation then wasn't a threat to us, tortured detainees, spied on US citizens and destroyed the economy.

What a douche bag.

 
HowlingFrog [TotalFark] 2008-11-28 03:58:50 PM  
I don't believe he said that with a straight face.

 
CravenMorehead 2008-11-28 03:58:55 PM  
then=that

Farkied as "Cheesepants the Unmentionable"

There, congratulations.

 
HowlingFrog [TotalFark] 2008-11-28 04:03:20 PM  
I'd like to see him remembered as "the first President to be tarred and feathered, and ridden on a rail out of the Whitehouse."

But that probably isn't gonna happen, either.

 
damageddude [TotalFark] 2008-11-28 04:07:45 PM  
And I'd like to be at the weight I was when I graduated college. A possibility but probably not gonna happen.

Don't forget the horse he rode in on.

 
que.guero 2008-11-28 04:21:49 PM  
If he means "liberate 50 million people from the shackles of their life savings" then yes, absolutely.

 
BitwiseShift 2008-11-28 04:22:22 PM  
He killed 50 million? Or just their dreams.

 
retro128 2008-11-28 04:22:26 PM  
Well, if by "liberate", you mean "kill"....

The Bush Legacy:

A depression. A needless war. American civilians jumping out of 100th floor windows on fire. Violation of international rules on torture. Stop loss. The word "nucular". Revenge politics. Fear mongering. Cheney. Discrimination. Suspension of the Constitution.

 
Ender's [TotalFark] 2008-11-28 04:23:13 PM  
I wish we should have the possibility of congressional law being passed so the constituencies could be accurately polled revoking a former president's secret service detail if their approval ratings are below 25% upon leaving office. That would rock.


/and if he was transfered to Iraq

 
Wrong_Intentions 2008-11-28 04:23:22 PM  
I'd like to be known as having a 24" penis, but it ain't gonna happen.

 
walnuts55 [TotalFark] 2008-11-28 04:23:37 PM  
I hate this farker, He is keeping all the best drugs for himself.

 
Badwrap 2008-11-28 04:24:05 PM  
You will be remembered as "the guy before Obama"

 
ScottMpls 2008-11-28 04:24:08 PM  
Has he started drinking booze and snorting marching powder again?

 
keeny_75 2008-11-28 04:24:14 PM  
Have there been any recent presidents who could honestly say things were peaceful when they left office?

 
LadyBelgara 2008-11-28 04:24:25 PM  
Fail tag on vacation?

 
Lee451 2008-11-28 04:25:59 PM  
All this hate by the same people who get their panties in a knot whenever someone fails to praise The Obamanation, the Leader of the Third Clinton Term, The #1 Arab of the United States, and Muslim in Chief of the Armed Forces.

As I said yesterday, we will support your "man" just as much as you have supported ours.

/Suck it, Libs.

Why don't you add the pimples on your ass while you're at it?

 
TeddyRooseveltsMustache [TotalFark] 2008-11-28 04:26:03 PM  
Hey, if ever there was a time to use the Fail tag, this was it. Bush is one of the worst people ever.

 
ilambiquated 2008-11-28 04:26:15 PM  
I'd like to be remembered as the guy who farked more supermodels in his day than anyone else in history.

 
the_chief 2008-11-28 04:26:17 PM  
What a complete megalomaniac.

How can I be considered a Great President? I know I'll start a war!

 
bacccc 2008-11-28 04:27:07 PM  
The REALLY sad part is that he actually believes that load of shiat. Let's check out the recipe for this disaster:

- 1 part silver spoon in mouth (and later up nose) retard with an unexplained ego
- 1 part pure evil (Dick Cheney and crew)
- 1 part retarded voter demographic

/Let's try not to whip up another batch of FAIL anytime soon, eh?

Don't forget, during his watch we also saw security checkpoints at Disneyland for the first time.

Hey, it worked for FDR, and Lincoln, and Andrew Jackson, and Washington...

ProTip! Before speaking, it's often best to remove the wang from your mouth.

Reagan.

"I'd like to be known as something other than what I'm generally perceived to be."

Walks, talks and acts like a duck.

/good farking luck, Georgie-boy.

 
Studson 2008-11-28 04:28:57 PM  
I think Bush is referring to converting all those Republicans and moderates to Democrats because of 8 years of failed foreign policy.

Well done Bush

 
ScottMpls 2008-11-28 04:29:21 PM  
ChrisPC: Hey, it worked for FDR, and Lincoln, and Andrew Jackson, and Washington...

I was thinking Bush is more like Millard Fillmore, US Grant, and Jimmy Carter.
