Bush-whacked: Chronicles Of Government Stupidity

With his expert nose for nuttiness, Gregory includes numerous perplexing quotes by George W. Bush, plus wacky anecdotes and weird one-liners.

Who Leland Gregory voted for in the 2004 presidential election is his business. But when George W. Bush won a second term, Gregory had to be doing cartwheels around his computer. The humorist, after all, makes a career of recording human behavior at, let's just say, its less-than-brilliant moments.

Bush-Whacked does a thorough job of tracking the president's language mangling as well as the inept bungling of his administration:

" Through bureaucratic mismanagement, parts for a top-secret spy plane, originally intended for destruction, were discovered being auctioned off on eBay. -New York Post

" "(T)he illiteracy level of our children are appalling." -GWB, Washington, D.C., January 23, 2004

With his expert nose for nuttiness, Gregory includes numerous perplexing quotes, wacky anecdotes, and weird one-liners in this hysterical collection. This isn't the president at his finest, just Dubya at his funniest.
