Check this if you have broadband (it's 60Mb), it's a parody of the SOTU, what
a scream!! Keep your eye on "Dennis Hastert" stuffing his face and
"Cheney's" permanent sneer

Some examples "going into Iraq with both fists blazing, "Put all your eggs in
one biscuit" "I'm the President of the United States, it's my job to
presidate"

Bush2 also gets tense, plurals, and gender confused. This is what
happens when Diebold determines who gets "elected."

It has so far, but it gets tiresome, watching to it hobble around,
hearing it complain about how its knees hurt. But hey, what do you
expect when even the Bible itself has been turned into a My-First-Deity
reader in colloquial English? SCREW Aramaic, Latin and Greek, we like it
THIS way! Its EEEEEASIER.
Bless me, Father, for I think I am the fushizzled or the schlamozzle
or some other happy horseshit.

Oh come now; you're merely misunderestimating him. :-)
Especially since one doesn't have to pronounce 'nuclear'
properly in order to push The Button which will destroy
the world.
(Yeah, that makes *me* feel all comfy-cozy. I wonder
if we can petition for a literacy test as part of the
primary process? Or would that be too exclusive? It's
not currently in the Constitution.)
Bush43 has also promised to hold our allies hostile,
whatever that means, and to put food on one's family.
(Kinky, that one.)
Bush43 will probably go down in history as one of the
most relevant and influential Presidents of all time.
Too bad it won't be for greatness. (A bit like Harding
and Nixon in that respect.)

These Dan Quayle quotes have also been attributed to Al Gore and John Kerry.
Thanks for reminding me why I have Frederic L. Rice blocked.

When did Rice post Dan Quayle quotes?
I implied Quayle whit my potatoe spelling and I've seen the video of Quayle
correcting the kid who spelled it potato.

It survived the Norman invasion of 1066, the introduction of myriad
foreign dialects among trade routes and churches, and Snoop Dogg (never
quite got the hang of the "shizzle" slang). It merely adapts and
integrates. We'll probably have a few "Bushisms" for a while until the
next linguistic shift.
