Description: |
As a farewell to the "commangler-in-chief", this nostalgic and humorous collection culls quotes from the last two years of George W. Bush's presidency and compares them to the hilarity of the entire eight years he has held office. |
Synopsis: |
"This business about graceful exit just simply has no realism to it at all." Let the nostalgia begin: we may never see words from the White House quite like these, ever again. "I think-tide turning-see, as I remember-I was raised in the desert, but tides kind of-it's easy to see a tide turn-did I say those words?" Ah, yes. And we'll miss them when you're gone, Mr. President. Here's the last chance to collect pearls of accidental wit: "One has a stronger hand when there's more people playing your same cards." "And I suspect that what you'll see, Toby, is there will be a momentum, momentum will be gathered. Houses will begat jobs, jobs will begat houses." "We shouldn't fear a world that is more interacted." Bushisms: The Farewell Tour is readers' last chance to join the fun in this lasting testimony to the power of the mismangled English language. |
