Bush Sings Farewell At Gridiron Roast

George Bush took the stage and sang an early farewell at the Gridiron, an annual roast among politicos and journalist in D.C. Lynn Sweet has a nice rundown on the evening's festivities and most popular targets of jest (Hint: running for President paints a big target on your back).

Although the media weren't allowed to bring their cameras, somebody did manage to smuggle us out of some footage. For you viewing pleasure, here is George W., singing goodbye (lyrics below).

Yes you're all gonna miss me, The way you used to quiz me, But soon I'll touch the brown, brown grass of home.

I spent my days clearing brush
I clear my head of all the fuss
But the fuss you made over harriet and brownie
Down the lane I look and here comes Scooter
Finally free of the prosecutor

Chorus

And then I wait and look around me
At the oval walls that surround me
I realize I was only dreaming
For there's Condi and Dick, my old compadre,
Talking to me about some oil rich Saudi,
But soon I'll touch the brown brown grass of home."

Chorus

That old White house is behind me,
I am once again carefree,
Don't have to worry 'bout a crisis in Pyongyang.
Down the lane I look, Dick Cheney is strolling
With documents he'd been withholding,
It's good to touch the brown brown grass of home."

Amazing that the attendees yucked it up with him. Unseemly, disgusting, revolting, slobs who laughed at Katrina, outing a covert agent, and more. Sickening. Do us a favor and disapper, you sickos.

[PLUMPLUM]

Good riddance!

He mocks us all with that parody. What have been the sacrifices or political setbacks for him these last seven years? He has circumvented the Constitution and gotten away with it. He has started a war in Iraq (based on doctored, erroneous evidence) that will still be here when he leaves. He has nearly brought this country to the brink of economic disaster, but he is financially solvent. So, yes he should feel jubilant and carefree because there is nothing for him to worry about. He has achieved the goals he set for this country. And the finale, the icing on the cake, will be a military confrontation with Iran. That will be orgasmic for him.

How many times, if any, do you think Chris Matthews and the MSM willl play this on their "shows?" Will it show up in Newsweek next week? They are busy dissing Hillary again this week. I heard this on KGO radio last night and it was mentioned that Bush singing all the reasons why he should be impeached. And look at the number of hits it is getting on HuffPo. Does anyone give a hell? This is what this country has become -- the "in" group can say and do whatever they want and it is a big laugh -- and although some of us don't know it, the jokes on us.

Was it MANDATORY for the MSM to laugh at Bush singing about Katrina, injustice and Bush's

Illegal War for Oil which includes the deaths of tens of thousands, including American solidiers?

For this idiot of a president to poke fun at the things he did while the moronic media laughed is about as disgusting as is gets. Wake up America, they are all in bed together. It is hard to believe anything coming from any MSM member and nothing can be believed from what is coming out of the mouth of this administration, it is pathetic.

Don't let the cell door hit you in the ass on the way out Mr. Bush.

[proudcalib]

He truly is a socipath. There is nothing remotely funny about this evil cabal and their misdeeds.

[SILVANUS]

Where are the war crime trials, and trials for lying and stealing from the American public? And you wonder why the kids are twisted, violent, and without much of a moral compass. Smirky McChimp is neither cowboy nor an honorable man. Just a frat boy puppet. A blight on our history. Makes Nixon look heroic.

These men by their very existence mock the sacrifice of our fathers:

And now by thjeir every breath they mock the sacrifice of our sons:

As the General in essence said to Lieutenant Hearn in "The Naked and the Dead":

"We will win. That is a certainity. We shall defeat them (Fascism). And then...we will become them."

God help us. God help what has become of our once mighty nation.

[jnratliff]

If it were a farewell to America I would watch other then that I could care less about watching chimpy!

[chendri887]

Oh, hee-hee, it's so funny the way you crap on everyone, President Bush. So funny. Ha-ha. Now you can just leave office, go back to your ranch, and leave the rest of us to clean up your mess. Kind of like it's always been, huh? What a jerk! What mind-boggingly, insensitive jerk.

[LeftLeaner]

Why can't he just disappear - NOW!!!

2009 is too far away

God Help us

The times of Caligula and Nero come to mind. Soldiers dying and maimed, Millions in desperation in Iraq due to oil grabbing, Blackwater and Halliburton flourish while WE citizens are losing homes and jobs wholesale. Seems Satanic at times ... donit?

Yet Bush has never been happier ... singing silly booze songs and tap dancing for begging photographers. The Land Of Confusion is nose diving in all ways while our Dear Leader eats, drinks and makes Merry and shows us how little he cares.

Gas at $4? No job? Kid killed in Iraq? Dollar plunging? America ... now a world disgrace? hey folks ... ain't my problem. I got 100,000 acres of publically funded military guarded Paraguay ranchland to run to when this old country finally goes totally third world.

Bush flipping the finger to America ... he's never been subtle, never really cared ... so why stop now? Party on Georgie. I'd hafta drink myself silly too if I was him.
