Bush embarrassed himself and his constituency and even more importantly us as a country. How about back in 2004: In a speech paying tribute to women reformers around the world, Bush sang the praises of Fathi Jahmi, a Libyan dissident. “Earlier today, the Libyan government released Fathi Jahmi,” Bush said during a White House gathering marking International Women’s Week. “She’s a local government official who was imprisoned in 2002 for advocating free speech and democracy.” One problem: Jahmi is a man. ‘‘I’m the commander — see, I don’t need to explain — I do not need to explain why I say things. That’s the interesting thing about being president.’’ —President George W. Bush, as quoted in Bob Woodward’s Bush at War one of my favorites: ‘‘Tribal sovereignty means that; it’s sovereign. I mean, you’re a — you’ve been given sovereignty, and you’re viewed as a sovereign entity. And therefore the relationship between the federal government and tribes is one between sovereign entities.’’ —President George W. Bush, speaking at a gathering of minority journalists, Washington, D.C., Aug. 6, 2004 and I’ll leave you with: ‘‘I’m also not very analytical. You know I don’t spend a lot of time thinking about myself, about why I do things.’’ —President George W. Bush, aboard Air Force One, June 4, 2003 The best was when Bush called the PM of Australia and didn’t know what the G20 was :bowrofl: I guess all those things are lame from a president…:stick: --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/joe-biden/199789)._
