From the Back Cover

It's Almost Over

On January 20, 2009, George W. Bush will no longer be President of the United States. Can't wait? This calendar—which runs through the end of his term—will help pass the time with hundreds of hilarious "bad" photos with captions, barbed presidential jokes, "Profiles in Outrage," hair-raising facts, plus quotes about Bush and from Bush, including his word on why we should ease up on the taxes for the wealthy: "The really rich people figure out how to dodge taxes anyway."

5.0 out of 5 stars Utterly Amazing, September 19, 2007
This review is from: Bad President Countdown Page-A-Day Calendar 2008 (Calendar)
I've been holding on to it for weeks because it didn't start until September 20th (today). What a fabulous way to ring in a new era. Not all of the pages are filled with photos. Which makes the calendar more bearable. It's actually in the hallway of the office for everyone to see. We'll see how that works out. I highly recommend this calendar.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy now, if only for the nostalgia..., September 16, 2008

This review is from: Bad President Countdown Page-A-Day Calendar 2008 (Calendar)
...because there may come something that will make us look back at George W. Bush with something approaching fondness. I refer of course to the scary possibility of the election of a clueless, bad-tempered, trigger-happy old duffer with attendant Jerry Falwell/Annie Oakley fusion, both capable of lies that could hang Mother Teresa, who will start even more pointless wars, give the wealthy even bigger tax breaks and deprive even more poor people of medical care, all in the name of a counterfeit religion (America). Come back, Georgie, all is forgiven!

This review is from: Bad President Countdown Page-A-Day Calendar 2008 (Calendar)
The calender is indeed funny. I only give it 4 starts because Bush really is the president of the US. And that's not a laughing matter. A sigh of relief will be heard throughout the earth when he finally packs his bags and retires to his ranch on Texas. Who knows, maybe this Born again Christian will one day be a Born again human being and realize how much devestation and suffering he has caused.
