Next entry: Men, Press Start.  Everyone Else, Make A Sandwich Previous entry: Race Card: Ur Doin It Wrong

Would you hire this man to speak at your upcoming conference?

George W. Bush is officially a

clown

speaker for hire. Now signed on with the Washington Speakers Bureau, W is now prepped to deliver revisionist history to adoring fans at rubber chicken banquets around the world. Here’s his bio at the WSB as you consider who you want on the dais at your next big event:

President during a momentous period in American history, George W. Bush offers his thoughts on eight years in the Oval Office, the challenges facing our nation in the 21st century, the power of freedom, the role of faith, and other pressing issues.

President George W. Bush served in the Oval Office for eight of the most consequential years in American history. Faced with challenges from a terrorist attack to a global financial crisis, he made difficult decisions that will shape the nation’s course and world affairs for decades to come. His leadership after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, was an inspiration to millions of Americans. His policies, while controversial at times, kept the country safe for more than seven years and liberated more than 50 million people from tyranny. Working with leaders in Congress and elsewhere, President Bush also raised standards and accountability in public education, added a prescription drug benefit to Medicare that helped more than 40 million beneficiaries, improved air quality and made America’s energy supply more secure, designated more ocean area habitats for environmental protection than any predecessor, launched historic efforts to fight HIV/AIDS and malaria in Africa, and strengthened America’s relationships with strategically important nations like India, China and Japan. He shares with audiences candid insights on his eight years in the White House, his experiences with other world leaders, the nature of public leadership and decision making, and a wide variety of domestic and international issues.

You need to book early! After his closed-to-the-press-and-public first gig in Calgary, Alberta before the chamber of commerce, touted as “A conversation with George W. Bush,” the former Dear Leader will take flight to share his

lies

thoughts with audiences in Asia and Europe (can’t wait for the reception he receives there).

Faced with challenges from a terrorist attack about which he had been warned and ignoredto a global financial crisis he caused, he made difficult decisions that were unfortunately the wrong decisions but will shape the nation’s course and world affairs for decades to come.

Fixed it.

When he’s in Europe, will the Hague snag him?

What loon of a writer would ever, no matter how much wingnut mouthwash they’ve gargled, write an insane line like “kept the country safe for seven years?”

Isn’t that like bragging about driving 250 of the miles between SF and Los Angeles without getting busted for DUI?

Comment #2: Llelldorin  on  02/25  at  06:32 PM

Love that “liberated more than 50 million people from tyranny . . .” quote.  Maybe he can show pictures of smiling Iraqi women and toppled statues to convince the foreign public they’re as ill-informed about all our “good works” in Iraq and Afghanistan as many Americans are.

Comment #3: deep6  on  02/25  at  06:42 PM

He kept the country safe for 7 out of 8 years of his term in office. That’s a hell of a selling point.

“His leadership after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, was an inspiration to millions of Americans”

aka

Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln. . . .

He kept the country safe for seven out of 8 years….

Whatever Spike’s on causes brain damage. There’s Bush’s audience.

Whatever Spike’s on causes brain damage. There’s Bush’s audience.

See, I thought it was a joke. As in, how many presidents kept the country safe from unprecedented terrorist attacks for EIGHT of their eight years?

I’m sure there’s a few.

Comment #7: Essie Elephant  on  02/25  at  07:31 PM

Would you hire this man to speak at your upcoming conference?

Sure. If it was on or after January 21, 2019, and especially if I’d organised it in in the Netherlands, convenient for the Hague.

Bush won’t have his Secret Service guards with him after noon January 20.

In fact, I may start collecting right now: even if we have to wait ten years, the fee would be worth it to bring Bush without the Secret Service to a location where he could be arrested, charged, and kept in jail until his trial.

Comment #8: Jesurgislac  on  02/25  at  07:42 PM

For the record he will be protested when he gives his little speech.  We Cannucks are no more in love with him than you are.  I personally find it an affront that he is fouling my country with his lies and revisionist history.  Umm Americans we Canadians do not want your cast offs, we’ll take Obama off your hands any day but Bush needs to stay home. In fact sending Bush here could be considered a declaration of war lol.

Comment #9: womanistmusings  on  02/25  at  07:45 PM

This give anyone else flashbacks?

I think he should stay out of classrooms. Remember what happened last time he read a book to kids.

Comment #10: the matthew show  on  02/25  at  07:50 PM

Shameless. I suppose Karen Hughes wrote it.

Comment #11: daphne  on  02/25  at  08:07 PM

Would you hire this man to speak at your upcoming conference?

Sure. 

We’re holding it in downtown Baghdad.  We’ll give him a nice big name tag, and a map so he can walk from the airport to his hotel, taking in teh sights and interacting with teh colourful locals on the way…

I’d like to have him at my conference but I only have one good pair of shoes, and I’d have a hard time parting with it.

Hell, I’ve been a passenger in a car that covered that range both ways—there and back again, Pasadena to SF and home by another road—whose driver was stoned on marijuana all the way.

No DUI charges for him either. And he had a new job as a security-clearanced defense contractor employee at the time.

Objectively speaking, I’m quite sure my friend would have made a better President than Bush, even while stoned. Perhaps especially while stoned…

Comment #14: Mark Foxwell  on  02/25  at  11:01 PM

I’m waiting for somebody with big money to book him for a speaking gig overseas as a set-up for a war crimes take down.

Comment #15: Ms Kate  on  02/26  at  12:17 AM

”...and liberated more than 50 million people from tyranny.”

Now he’s being far too modest. He liberated over 300 million people from tyranny in January 20th, 2009.

Christ, how long did that take?  People stoned on the demon weed tend to drive sloooooooow.

There, fixed it.
