Yep……Drunk with power….and Bush was the bartender…….

That's great your Joker Faced wife is looking for a house to buy…….you can afford it because you are an elitist multi-millionaire.

How many more days in office??

If anyone knows about being drunk and making bad decisions…it would be George….just wish he would have waited til he was out of the White House!!!

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?????????

NOT A GOOD EXAMPLE. DRUNK???

I thought Wall Street was just tired and fell down while eating pretzels…

Did you stop drinking Bush ???

Bush is a fool. Saying "The question is, how long will it [Wall Street]sober up and not try to do all these fancy financial instruments?" only goes to show the dearth of leadership this guy has provided to solve the problems this country faces. He does not get involved in the energy crisis even though he had eight years to establish a workable policy to develop alternative fuel solutions, nor did he do anything about the superheated housing market that anyone with an ounce of sense could see would become a problem and now we are heading into a recession. Now he is "waiting" for Wall Street to correct its gluttonous ways? God help us. This man just needs to disappear into the sunset, never to be heard from again.

I was sure now that Dubya is only months away from leaving elected office that he would run out of stupid things to say — ah well, there goes that theory.

And they call Obama unsophisticated ?!?!?

At least being drunk and knowing the consequences is something he's familiar with.

obama got less votes than mccain mccain got less votes than obama obama get less votes than mccain who leading in the poll

He speaks out of his personal experience of being alcoholic & the sad thing is he's been allowed to put his dry-drunk affect on the world . He needs the 12 -step program in the worst way,especially taking a personal inventory & asking forgiveness !!!

Isn't this the same guy who was giddy about his political capital?

And the one who was dancing on the steps of the White House the day the news broke that debt on property in the US exceeded its value?

What a leader!!

Stay the Course!

McCain 08

old habits never go away ..

…so Wall Street has a hangover!

…so Wall Street does not understand the financial instruments!

Give me a break! Wall Street fully understood what they were peddling!

Bush is the one that's clueless!

Bush is stupid.

A swing and a miss.

Wow, Americans surely do need a remedy for being a nation of whiners, in a mental recession, full of psychological needs, who believe in a bunch of hung-over drunks on Wall Street.

Bush has a hangover all his life why is he talking about economy

if ANYONE would know about hangovers, HE would.
for me, the last 8 years have been a LIVING NIGHTMARE COME TRUE.

Hey Dubya
Speaking from experience are ya?

The economy has a "hangover" because Bush and his administration went on a 7 1/2 year binge.

It appears to me that the Republican "free market economy" has ruined the country in so many way. Self policing just hasn't worked and greed has become king.

He speaks from experience and knows the hard road back from the bottle to sobriety. If only judgment and common sense would naturally follow . . . If only.

Well it started with anti-"Red Lining" laws. Force lenders to take on lousy risks which morphed into interest only, ARMs, no credit check, etc mortgages.
It used to be credit had to be earned but no more. It's a right not a privilege now. Credit extended to people with no job, no SS#, no tax returns and so it goes. It's like everything else. Suck off SS money for give away programs to human Pez machines and career welfare recepients. Can't deny anyone anything anymore even if they haven't earned it.
"Earned Income Credit"?? Pay no taxes but get a refund? Explain that one.
And now the personification of every give away liberal, bleeding heart, bed wetting, cry baby program that ever milked a dime from legal, working Americans has emerged in the form of Hussein Obama.
Yep, old Bush says some pretty goofy stuff but he's not the slick talking, wolf in sheep's, Muslim in Christian clothing Hussein Obama is.

I don't know what is more pathetic, Bush speaking, or the 28% of the public that actually think he is doing a "heck of a job"

There should be in IQ test before you can beconme president. The mans simple understanding of things reminds me of a toddler. Lets hope we get someone with a bit more depth, and understanding of complex issues this time around. How anyone can still have faith in Bush after these last 7 years is beyond me. Those of us with the capacity to think have cringed every time this man has opened his mouth. And more damaging, his lack of understanding has made his poicies that much worse.

Calling this imbecile a simpleton is an insult to imbeciles and simpletons the world over.

Oh, is that why all the whining?

Articulate George Bush can Articulate?

"The depth of the intellect at the very top of our nation's government is staggering, isn't it?"
Jack Cafferty

I couldn't agree more, Jack. He is such an embarrasment!

We know that to be true, they used all our money to buy the alcohol.

********************************************

WHO ARE THE IDIOTS THAT ELECTED THIS GUY?

Go back to your Big Book George. When was the last time you checked it out anyway. Sounds like George needs to go to a meeting. My name is George and I am a FOOL. I can hear it now. LOL I have taken the country as low as it can go because I am a moron. McSame will fill my shoes real fine.
Obama08

And he would know, wouldn't he.

What an absolute moron! This is what your stating about the shape YOU brought this economy too. No Bush your the drunk! Your so out-of-touch with America that its actually very disturbing. How could you even try and to make a joke about this? I'm still counting the days until your out of office. Do us all a favor and impeach yourself. I'm so sick of the right-wing trying to blame everything on the democrats because they control congress. Well what is the excuse for the 4 years they didn't control congress. This economy has been in a downslide every since August 2001. Look it up, and that before 9/11 ever happened. Bush is the President right now…period! He is to blame. He is why we are in this mess of an economy, war, and debt. I am a republican, veteran, and love my country. I love it so much that I will be voting for Barack Obama!

Come on Everyone
YES WE CAN!!!

Our president is no NEWWWWWWWWWWWWS. He can say whatever he wants.

colorful statements indeed!….is dubya drunk again or is he having a hang over?! I knew he got DUI back in the days. to think that this is the man who americans handed the presidency to for 8 good yrs…one that sounded like he has brain paralysis. what a shame!!!

to continue 4 more years of dubya by giving the presidency to his buddy old pa mcsame who sounds even more unintelligible will be a disaster.

not this time!!

Obama '08/'12!

Man, if anyone knows about hang-overs it's Bush.

So, who's up for another eight years of this guy?

As an alcoholic, Bush should know a hangover when he sees it. But that would mean that there was something to celebrate, which we obviously HAVEN'T had during his alleged 'leadership.'

BUSH WAKE UP AND SMELL THE ROSES. THE AMERICAN ECONOMY IS OUT OF SIGHT AND SINKING LOWER. THIS IS NOT A SITUATION TO MAKE FUN AND JOKES ABOUT. AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING BECAUSE OF YOU RICH PEOPLE WANTING TO MAKE MORE AND MORE BIG BUCKS. I AM BEGINNING TO AGREE WITH WHAT STALIN AND KRUCHEVFF STATED THAT THE UNITED STATES TYPE OF GOVERNMENT WOULD DESTROY THEMSELVES FROM WITHIN. WHAT HAVE WE DONE IN THE PAST THIRTY YEARS. WE HAVE LET FOREIGN COUNTRIES BUY UP OUR BIG MANUFACTURING COMPANIES AND THEY HAVE SINCE BEEN MOVED OUT OF THIS COUNTRY ONE BY ONE. THEY ALSO ARE BUYING UP ALL THE LAND THEY CAN GET THEIR HANDS ON. NOW WE ARE IN THE VERGE OF PUTTING A MUCH BIGGER MORON INTO OFFICE WITH OBAMA. WHERE WILL WE BE THEN. HE WISHES TO DESTROY OUR MILITARY. WHO WILL PROTECT US THEN. WE ARE SO DEEP IN DEBT NOW WE CAN NOT AFFORD ANOTHER WAR. FIRST BUSH GAVE AWAY THREE TRILLION DOLLARS THAT BILL CLINTON LEFT OFFICE FOR HIM IN ESCROW AND A BALANCED BUDGET. WE HAVE NO CLINTON NOW TO PULL US OUT OF THIS MESS THANKS TO THE IGNORANCE OF AFRICAN AMERICANS AND THE MEDIA.

A pot calling the kettle black? In any case, it wasn't Wall Street that started this borrow-and-spend economic system, it was that frog Greenspan and his happy Fedsters, who fostered irrational exuberance as an economic policy. Give an American an inch and they'll keep on going to infinity, which is just what they have done with an infinite debt (that will never be paid back), infinite greed, and eventually infinite despair.

Man, if anyone knows about hang-overs it's Bush.

So, who's up for another eight years of this guy?

Is anyone else as disgusted I am????? Here I am working FT plus 2 PT jobs, my husband works full time, and we are barely making ends meet. And we are relatively frugal and have a fixed rate mortgage!!! Can't imagine what other people are going through.

And this nimrod has the balls to make jokes about it????

No, George, if you've been on government pay for 14 years and have big oil in the palm of your hand, times are not tough for you rich jerks.

This market was artifically held-up for seven years!

When the economy was tanking around the 911 period housing was still rising and it seemed strange for everything else to tumble except the housing sector. Now, we know it should have been crumbling at that time.

Mr. Bush is say Wall Street was drunk and looking at the president I can tell he understands drunks as well as the next drunk would.

He's now going to ride-out this sad chapter of our live without a scratch and we'll be left devistated economy

Thanks Bush for nothin'

Okay, so Wall Street had a hangover and we got sucker punched.

Obama 08

Doesn't having a hangover mean that you've actually had some good times recently? That certainly hasn't happened in the last 7 1/2 years.

LLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

And so do the American people from this president. We are so tired and so bushed. We want him to just go, go, go.

Obama 08

And the American people are drunk if they elect your twin.

I will never understand how the voters of this great nation could ever elect someone so stupid.

I HAVE TO ADMIT TO LIKING SOMETHING ABOUT BUSH,

UNLIKE MCBUSH, HE COULDN'T CARE LESS ABOUT WHAT

WE THINK OF HIM & HE DOESN'T PRETEND TO. WE WERE

STUPID ENOUGH TO ELECT HIM. HE & CHANEY GOT THEIRS.

AND WE GOT OURS, HIGH PRICES & A WAR THAT IS

BLEEDING OUR ECONOMY DRY.

BUT MCSLEAZO GOES AROUND TAUTING HIS HEROISM.

TENS OF THOUSAND OF OUR TROOPS WERE POWS.

MOST,PROBABLY, A GREAT DEAL MORE HONEST & HONORABLE.

How much longer until George is OUT of office?

Profound words from our esteemed leader.

At least he didn't say that Wall Street is recovering from a coke bender.

how about him and his administration hung over!

McCain (mental recession) Bush (wall street is drunk). Can't tell them apart can you. Why??

Cause there cousins, Identical cousins all the way…. LOL!!!!

Just another example of the confused and befuddled mind of the Idiot Prince.

Who got drunk?

I understand what President Bush was trying to say, however, that was an unfortunate way of saying it. President Bush needs to be more careful and articulate with his metaphors. They open him to criticism he could otherwise avoid.

That said, there is more wrong with the economy and housing than Wall Street. President Bush, Senator McCain, and Senator Obama would do well to understand those issues.

Oh, and as a resident of the Dallas area, I can tell you that the housing market here is having problems as well. I suspect that isn't the case in the section of the market that the Bushes are looking at, but for most of everyone else, there is a problem.

SO DOES BUSH AND MC CAIN. THEY HAVE HAD A HANGOVER FOR ALMOST EIGHT YEARS

Frankly, I think the analogy is a good one. Not just Wall St, with its mortgage derivatives, etc., but Main St. that mortgaged houses to the hilt. It was quite a party, and now the price is being paid. Bush seems, however, to be resisting the discipline needed to make sure it doesn't happen again with much stronger regulation, oversight, and consumer protection laws.

thanks for getting to the bottom of it, Dubya.

He should know…the only President ever to be elected who pleaded guilty to a felony (for DUI).

I have no doubt that this is Bush's way of speaking in technical details.

Mr. Bush's intelligence has been transparent from the beginning. Isn't that why people voted for him. Why he is one of the "good ol boys".

So does the country and the world after 7.5 years of Bush and company!!

lets hope he doesnt reveal any more CIA operatives by mistake.
He sure doesnt act very presidential anymore (if he ever did) I dont think he cares about the country or how he is affecting McCain viability to govern. I have some concerns that now the US is talking to Iran and North Korea without conditions which is a contradiction to what was said in the past. I think he should only give speeches at Chucky Cheese or Starbucks since they dont serve alcohol. How sad Mr President

what an arrogant smug piece waste of space "president" bush is

If the metaphor for our terrible economy is. That wall street got drunk. Then the Republicans supplied all the Alcohol. Lets put the Republicans on the Wagon and elect a sober President.

This is what happens when you get a McBush style leader. This is one of the worse President in the US history..

Bush knows everything about hangovers.

And he is the President of the United States?
WHAT A COMPLETE AND UTTERLY STUPID THING TO SAY.
Is it November Yet?
BARACK THE VOTE !!!

Speaking from experience ?????? Finally a subject you know something about

I'm sure you can relate to that (DRUNK)

i thought he was a cowboy who loved clearing brush on his "ranch" what a joke, he obvisously has no idea whats happening with the economy

Doesn't having a hangover mean that you've actually had some good times recently? That certainly hasn't happened in the last 7 1/2 years.

Those of Wall Street are still drinking it in.

And Bush got "drunker"…

Does this man's cartoonish and ignorant act never cease? They aren't hungover they're are next chapter of the ongoing Enron saga that just keeps getting transferred from one industry in this country to the next while the hardworking American people are ground into the dust to support the lies of our "leaders" and promote to the world what a mockery our country has become.

IDIOT…and all those that were too blind, deft and dumb to see it from the day he announced he was running for President. All he, his twin McSane, cares about is the Rebublican Party and keeping the White House…Nothing else.

He's right.

The democrats pushed the banks to loan to the 'poor' (people that can't afford it) and now we are all paying for it.

don't worry. Obama will have a government program for that.

And he WOULD know about hangovers!!!

What an Idiot!

thanks for the kegger gw!

Wow. How insensitive to speak of the housing market as doing well. This man is so out of touch with the reality of the average American. And "goverment pay"? That is just plain arrogant givent he fact he's an oil man reaping in millions of dollars per year. The justice will be his Presidency will always be remembered as the one where our economy bottomed out and thousands of troops died in a war he wanted.

Well, he should be the expert on hangovers.

HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT FOLKS ???

THERE ARE PLENTY WHERE HE CAME FROM.

WE NEED TO PRAY FOR THE GOOD SENSE

NOT TO ELECT ANY OF THEM, FOR ANYTHING.

I think the Republican Party IS drunk currently. Time and again the President and his cronies have demonstrated to be characters out of Alice and Wonderland.
Seriously though, the President has betrayed the American people who voted for him and his party. The people have betrayed the U.S. military service members, ALL of them.
Bush can make all the jokes he feels fit to. The reality of it is his presidency, his party, his so-called "legacy" is the joke.
If the American people STILL does not see that, then WE are drunk and the jokes on us…..

I think he is hung over.

And people actually are thinking of voting for mccain who believe it or not, has made more gaffes, and mistakes and blunders thank this moron. Our foreign relations would be worse than they are now if that is even possible. Thank GOD we have a choice in Obama and a good one too.

*sigh* couldn’t you find another analogy, sir? Did you really want to go there and remind everyone of your old habits?

May God help this country though the next six months! I don’t know how we made it through 7.5 years!

i cant think of nothing postive so i will not say anything negative.

A NATION THAT ELECTED GEORGE DESERVES GEORGE

AND ALL THAT COMES WITH HAVING HIM PRESIDENT.

IMPEACH NOW!!!!

And Bush should know about hangovers……..

From one drunk to another. Drunks always tell their sober thoughts.

He doesn't want to stay in Crawford Texas because then everyone will know where he is and that would be 'O Happy Day' for some people.

Such insightful words from our intelligent president….Jan 09 please hurry up

I wonder why he didn't make a joke about cocaine instead.

And the DNC was just as drunk when they selected Obama.

Annoy the Media, say NO to Obama.

Considering W's extensive experience with alcohol, I fully trust that he knows drunk when he sees it.

"The question is, how long will it sober up and not try to do all these fancy financial instruments?"

He's drunk! It'd be nice to have a coherent sentence from the leader of the free world. Drunk on oil most likely, while the unemployed are the true drunks with no where else to turn but the bottle.

It's worse than he realizes, they even dug into the cheap stuff, night train will be posting record profits this quarter, just you wait..

good grief

"The question is, how long will it sober up and NOT TRY TO DO ALL THESE FANCY INSTRUMENTS?"

wow…. The President of the United States, people…..

Guess after this, he's gonna head out to the ce-ment pond and whittle a while as granny fixes a heap of vittles…..

Yeah, and your legacy is going to feel like a long hangover too, George.

How dare the President make a colorful comparison to a serious issue. How dare he!!!!

Sorry, I thought I would just summarize what all the dems will be posting. And when you think about it, he was probably just trying to explain it in a way that most dems will understand. You know….small words, short sentences, throw an alcohol reference in there to catch their attention.

REMEMBER AMERICA, HE LIKES MCCAIN…HE WANTS MCCAIN TO WIN. BUSH IS BACKING MCCAIN. MCCAIN IS BUSH'S MAN FOR THE WHITE HOUSE. THIS IS THE PRESIDENT WHO BACKS MCCAIN. GW really really really wants McCain to win. John S.McCain and GW are good good old boys now, two peas in a pod, white on rice, BFF, he is endorsing McCain…..need i say more?

Yeah and we're just a nation of whiners right? McCain doesn't think we have a problem, he says the economy is actually better than it looks. But i'm sure he was referring to Czechoslovakia so it's cool.
