I Miss GW

Now somebody's gonna open this up just because they think I've lost my mind and they feel the need to see how stupid I truly am, I can save you the trouble....I miss GW.

Let me explain....

I'm not saying I have a problem with Obama. I'm just saying when he addresses the nation I get about as excited as a narcoleptic with a sleeping pill. I think I may have gotten more than a little spoiled with our previous Presidents.

Lets starts with GW Bush:
You just never knew what was going to come out of his mouth. Sometimes I tuned in just out of sheer curiosity. I thought maybe, just maybe today will be the day he walks up to the podium, wearing one of those cowboy suits all little boys had in the 70s. The one with the blue vest and the red fringe. Saying something stupid, like "I'm rubber and your glue, what ever you say is gonna get you sticky, cause glue's sticky". Then he was going to declare war on Mexico, because the price of Tequila is outragous.

Then lets go to Bill Clinton:
I just knew if I watched long enough, I'd see a couple of pole dancers in the background, a Federal mandate making McDonalds establish a delivery service or even a lap dance by Helen Thomas. I thought maybe, Hilary would be pushed to the breaking point and kung fu his ass during the Presidential address. But still I was let down.

George H Bush:
His speeches did have a certain flair.
NO NEW TAXES, "Making the US a Kinder, Gentler nation", and Trickle Down. Hmm..I guess its hereditary?
I do in all honesty however, believe Barbara Bush was one of the most influential First Ladies we've ever had. Second only to Eleanor Roosevelt.

Ronald Reagan:
I was only 5 when he took office so I don't remember much about this one unfortunately. I know when he addressed the nation however, the world seemed to stop. He had a commanding presence if anything else. Yet he had that gentleness about him that made everybody feel at ease. I, of course remember, the Berlin Wall, end of the Cold war and all of the major accomplishments during his presidency.

Like I said, I'm not knocking Obama. I just think the most exciting thing he's ever said was that he looked like he was "bowling for the Special Olympics". Maybe if he'd say something like "mission accomplished, while allowing Dr's to practice their love of women", I'd be a little more receptive. I mean really, declaring 57 states will only get you by for so long Obama.
