Product Description

Product Description

"They misunderestimated me."

Or did they?

Judge for yourself. Here are over 100 memorable misstatements by our syntactically challenged president, collected, annotated, and introduced by "Slate" magazine's Jacob Weisberg.

"I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully."

"Families is where our nation finds hope, where wings take dream."

"We'll let our friends be the peacekeepers and the great country called America will be the pacemakers."

"It's clearly a budget. It's got a lot of numbers in it."

"I know how hard it is for you to put food on your family."

"I do know I'm ready for the job [the presidency].

And if not, that's just the way it goes."

Format:Paperback
With such classics as "i appreciate how hard it is for you to put food on your children" you have to wonder how he became the worlds most powerfull man!!!

Good book which will have you rolling. Did not get five stars simply because it is much shorter than I thought it would be and there is only 1 quote per page - Its not that i thought there would be more quotes (even he cant talk a whole lot more rubbish) but I thought it would be more of a narrative.

Good anyway

A good read! 16 Aug 2004
Format:Paperback
I picked this book up while I was on vacation in New York last July. And I must admit, its a hilarious book with plently of linguistic misadventures by Mr. Bush. Whether you are a fan of Bush or not, it doesn't matter, because this book is accessible to a universal audience! From Washington to Baghdad, this book is the best for people interested in simple political satire!

Hilarious Book 17 Jan 2003
Format:Paperback
A page-turning book of great hilarity, readers will find it difficult to put down this book. Gore supporters will love it as a satirical farce of their opponent, while Bush supporters will find it endearing, illustrating Bush as "a man of the people"! If you're interested in American or international politics, "Bushisms" is a book that will make you laugh.
