George H.W. Bush: "Some Of You May Have Gotten My Ass Email" (VIDEO)

Sometimes dropping one letter is all it takes to end up on the wrong side of a gaffe. Speaking at a community service forum at Texas A&M alongside Barack Obama Friday, Former President George H.W. Bush mentioned to the audience that some of them may have gotten his "mass email" this week. Unfortunately, the first time around, he didn't say "mass."

I didn't think Bush 41 was in touch with the American people and did a bad job in office. That was my opinion. He is a patrician but I also remember that to his credit, he served this country well in WWII and is considered a war hero. His son GW doesn't measure up at all to his father who after his presidency patched things up with Clinton and the two of them raised millions of $$ for worthwhile causes.

So, he has his faults and to me was not a good president, but he is a good American.

Bush 41 patrician? Hardly. If anything he has been deceptive and deceitful since the day he entered politics and by so doing, he gave up what respect he had earned during WW2.

A pathetic, self-centered individual same as his son, full of empty promises and hollow words.

I agree. Although I disagree with him on about 100 percent politically, I do admire him as a person, I think he is deep down a good man.

I need to get at least 1,000 signatures soon. Please help me. This cause is very important to me and many others. Especially after the Haliburton/KBR rape case and SA 2588 introduced by Sen. Frankin that followed. I'm ready to hand deliver this petition with all signatures intact but I'm not there yet. I'm going out today to get "physical" signatures as well. Please help me.

He's made similar verbal gaffes before. My favorite one is this one, in which it seemed like he was saying that he's had sex with Reagan!

And then there was the time when he tried race-baiting (Japanese) at the VFW, which backfired when he declared that September 7th was Pearl Harbor Day.

We got your A$$ administration. I will give you this, however. Compared to 43 you are a great statesman and intelllectual giant. Course that's still not saying much.
