One year from today...

[DaveC]

A new President will be inaugurated, and the world will finally be rid of George W. Bush.

Start the countdown...365!

[MsPurrl]

Huzzah! Unless he takes over and proclaims himself "President for Life"!

[U2democrat]

THERE IS A LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL!!!!!

I feel that W will definitely have an historic place in the US presidential legacy. He is the first president who was a known former cocaine addict. And, gosh darn it, that's something to be proud of.

Not only can I wait for that, but I can't wait for the mood to change in America. You know?

It will be a sad day indeed.

However, "the world will finally be rid of George W. Bush" isn't a true statement. I'm pretty sure he'll still be alive.

And hopefully we won't be replayed by another druggie...

But no one will have to listen to him, therefore: A Glorious Day for all!!!

And writers for late night talk shows will have to work a little harder, Bush made their job way too easy for the last 7 years.

He will no longer be President George W. Bush. He will then be Former President George W. Bush.

Former President George W. Bush.

It hurts just to read those words.

Gaining back the respect of the rest of the nations on the planet, perhaps reducing the number of people your age who are dying and getting maimed for no good reason, limiting the impact of our own terrorist policies on the young people in the Middle East, recovering form the staggering debt the war has put us into, reprioritizing spending so children here in the US can eat and have healthcare. A sad day indeed.

Oh, so you're the one who still feels this way.

"I had learned not to care," he wrote. "I blew a few smoke rings, remembering those years. Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it."

-Senator Barack Obama

That's not addiction. Sure, he experiemented, but experimentation does NOT equal addiction.

Sure, it can lead to addiction, but that is not the case with Obama.


With Bush, 30 or so years ago he was addicted, not experimenting.

[phillyfan26]

That's usage, not addiction.

It hurts me to think that I couldn't use them for the past three years.

You have to be smart enough to know the difference between dabbling and addiction.

I don't care one bit what a president has done in the past, but addiction is lifelong. I don't care how long you've been recovering, an addict is an addict and doesn't belong in the White House.
