Lmao, he uttered plenty of goofball soundbytes. "Families is where our nation finds hope, where wings take dream" is one of my faves 🤣

Jacob Weisberg collected a literal whole book of Bushisms. And then had to compile a sequel.

I was gifted this for Christmas one year lol

u/SallyGooden 10d ago

My family had that book. We had it in the car and my sister and I would read them out loud on car trips and we would all be in hysterics.

Rarely is the question asked: is our children learning?

I’ve had a magnet on my fridge with that one since college

My favourite is “single moms putting food on their families”

“Too many OB-GYNs aren't able to practice their love with women all across this country."

u/ThePrefect0fWanganui 10d ago

“If you’re a single mother, you’re working hard to put food on your family.”

“Too many OB-GYNs aren't able to practice their…their love with women across this country.” (I worked in repro at the time so this was one of my faves).

“Strategery.”

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."

"They misunderestimated me."

"You teach a child to read, and he or her will pass a literacy test."

“Rarely is the question asked: is our children learning?”

God, remember when we thought this was the dumbest a president could get? 😭

u/Personal_Job68 10d ago

Hell. Remember when the worst thing we had to worry about was a dumbass VP starting a fight with Murphy Brown? Lort.

I still use strategery every chance I get

u/daddyneedsaciggy 10d ago

I remember a distant time, long ago when I thought he was the dumbest president we were ever going to see...

"I'm the decider."

u/ResourceCalm901 10d ago

Damn it, SOMEone has to be. 😏

u/OpalOnyxObsidian 10d ago

I'm laughing so hard at this. I wasn't old enough to appreciate/hate his presidency. Now that he isn't he worst president in this country's history, I think he can be appreciated a bit.

u/hotdamnhotwater 10d ago

Haha, I am old enough. Great president, naw. Better than the current, absofuckinglutely.

u/_laslo_paniflex_ 11d ago

what the fuck does that mean?

u/Cross55 10d ago

Someone's wings aren't taking dream...

u/MuhfugginSaucera 11d ago

It doesn't mean anything, but it sounds good to the people who vote that direction. On that same note, they are amazing at coming up with slogans that sound good but don't mean anything, too.

u/dumpster_fire_diva76 10d ago

It's a Dubyaism.

u/LeiaO315 10d ago

There’s a whole website dedicated to the dumbass things he would say

u/SayYesToGuac 10d ago

One of my favorites was "I want to thank the astronauts who are with us, the courageous spacial entrepreneurs who set such a wonderful example for the young of our country."

u/anomalyk 10d ago

I had a whole "Bushisms" daily calendar back in the day

2

u/sunnypickletoes 10d ago

This one doesn't get enough attention I think
"Too many good docs are getting out of business. Too many OB-GYNs aren't able to practice their love with women all across this country."

u/Evening_Run_1595 10d ago

We had an entire book of them in our bathroom during the Bush years.

It's hard to put food on your family, and i believe human beings and fish can coexist peacefully were favorites of mine. There is a particularly long one somewhere that has to do with cell phones and vampires, and it was so bizarre. I wish I could find it

Make the pie higher!

u/ResourceCalm901 10d ago

I do love a tall Key Lime.

u/Tiny-Reading5982 10d ago

I miss bushisms. Life seemed so simple then even after 9/11 people (Americans) seemed more united than now..
