Thistle_do_nicely Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 (edited) was there not something similar once Bush was out of the white house - that the "Bushisms" took on a bit more of an endearing quality to them rather than "holy shit this man is the president of the USA" had a little google - things like misunderestimates, "where wings take dream", and my favourite since it's legit Ralph Wiggumesque, "is our children learning?" Bush was probably a bit unlucky (or arguably fortunate - his gaffes were less insane ramblings and vitriolic, petty verbal attacks on people, more just him sounding like a fucking idiot?) to predate social media. another edit: oh that weird wee clip of him going "Now watch this drive!" too, cant mind the exact significance but its sticking out for some reason... edit: I remember veeeery vaguely an old teacher was really fond of Bushisms; clearly had a hateboner for the ex president generally but really liked to regale the class with them from time to time.

Had a poster on his wall of some of the bests. I actually found a book of Bushisms in a charity shop in Peebles. I'll look it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
