I don't pretend to be something I'm not.

I know I'm an asshole, and I own that shit like a motherfucker.

'Can't we all just get along?' Sheesh.

How's about Barbara Bush? Now, that's where the balls reside in that clan.

Though it may be damning him with faint praise, I think GHWB was the best Republican President since Eisenhower. I think he had the best cabinet of any President in recent memory.

I'll happily concede that point.

Now where is that photo of him kibitzing with Noriega...

I think Nixon was better.

And I think Reagan was better.

I'll give him the edge over his own evil spawn, but that's as far as I'll go.

Now that I think about it, the last decent Republican President was Eisenhower.

Since then, every one has gotten progressively worse.
