Proof of an alternate universe? LTTE from Mpls. Strib...
"As we prepare to inaugurate a new president, I want to thank President Bush for his service for the last eight years. He has more than earned his share of the peace, freedom and liberty he has worked so hard during his presidency to secure for the rest of America's citizens.

Like just about every citizen during the term of every president since the founding of this republic, I have not agreed with every decision Bush has made or every act he's taken. But there is no doubt of his devotion to this country and his desire to see it -- and its citizens -- prosper. As a result, he will be leaving the nation in a better condition than he found it, surely the aspiration of anyone that assumes the mantle of leadership and one President-elect Barack Obama would do well to adopt as well."

What planet do these people live on? Aside from the election of America's first non-white President, can anyone think of a way that Bush left our country in a "better condition?"

2. Well, Bush did sign
the "Do not call" bill. Maybe that's what this guy was thinking about. My phone rings less during the dinner hour. I guess that's a good thing.

3. I didn't think of that. I'm really having trouble thinking of any way..
that Bush "improved" our country.

Worst. President. Ever.

4. The other truth is obvious.....
"lawyers and journalists who challenge the official version of justice are frequently targeted." This was just copied from another poster who announced the killing of a Moscow civil rights attorney and reporter's death.

5. I think they believe that
if they keep saying it, someone will believe them.

Or else they're just stupid, delusional, drooling idiots.

7. You can't still be a * fan without the deepest denial.
Some people really want to be * fans, having shot off their mouths for him for years, I suppose. It's far too late for them to start admitting failure.

8. His most recent approval rating announced today: 22%.
Hopefully, more of his fans are going into "recovery." ;-)
