I'm gonna make some speeches. Refill the coffers. What an arrogant ass!
Americans without health care, their jobs outsourced, their home equity wrecked. If they are working the cost of gas and food is eating up any extra income, their schools are going to pot thanks to NCLB and their roads and infrastructure are crumbling. Then there's the Regular Army and Reservist's families living on food stamps thanks to the indefinite deployments, who would file bankruptcy if they could, the same one's B*** denied a small raise in their pay after cutting their medical and education benefits....

With all of this going on we now read about B*** talking about how he's going to clean up financially after he leaves office. The unmitigated ARROGANCE of this man is disgusting! What's even more disgusting is that there will be plenty of Bush Crime Family suckups that'll pay the bumbling idiot to speak to them!

“I don’t know what my dad gets - it’s more than 50-75″ thousand dollars a speech, and “Clinton’s making a lot of money.”"

“We’ll have a nice place in Dallas,” where he will be running what he called “a fantastic Freedom Institute” promoting democracy around the world. But he added, “I can just envision getting in the car, getting bored, going down to the ranch.”


Insert your best Jon Stewart "He he he he". It hurts too much if ya don't laugh.

2. Considering that the little twerp has 20some Million in the bank...
that he certainly didn't earn, makes his remarks even more repulsive.

4. Wonder what it would cost if Sr, Moon, and Jr all spoke together. All should be
in jail, but they will be invited to speak singly or maybe, together.

10. Oh they'll need speechwriters, teleprompters...
In-ear voice prompting, large screens on either side of the stage with the text of the actual speech scrolling down (subliminally flashing images of Arabic men with AK-47s, mushroom clouds and falling towers) so people will know what he's supposed to be saying, a large light show with moving lights and lasers (you know how wingers are about flashy things). It'll have to be a huge production. I'm figuring at least 2 semi's of gear and a crew of 20 or so. Even then ya know he's gonna blow it.

Perhaps they can call on their old friends at Disney! The guys at Disney could make an Automatron that they can trot up who will not only say the right thing everytime, it'll even know how to pronounce the words!
