George Bush - Political Satire

  • "A year ago, my approval rating was in the 30s, my nominee for the Supreme Court had just withdrawn, and my Vice President had shot someone. Ahhh, those were the good old days." – George W. Bush, at the 2007 Radio-TV Correspondents' dinner

  • "So what?" –President Bush, responding to a an ABC News correspondent who pointed out that Al Qaeda wasn't a threat in Iraq until after the U.S. invaded, Dec. 14, 2008


  • These two quotes are examples of satire because they show how uneducated our President was.  It is unbelievable that we trusted our nations security to someone who said "so what" when it was discovered that Al Qaeda wasn't a threat until after the U.S. invaed.  Or someone who mentioned that the past "was the good old days" as if he doesn't care about the direction that our country is headed to now.  Politics has become more and more of a joke and this compliation of quotes only prove how depressing out nation really is.
