    Excerpts from the draft of George W. Bush's Farewell address:

    "I, George W. Bush, am the worst President ever!

    Yes! Without a doubt.

    Absolutely the worst.

    Terrible in every way."

    "I ignored all the warnings about 9/11. I completely froze at my photo opp book reading gig when I heard that we were under attack.

    I appointed incompetents who were loyal friends but could not do the job."

    "Even though I ducked out of my service to my country during the Viet Nam war I routinely overrode my Generals advice, so that they retired early rather than kowtow to my uninformed ego"

    "I lied about our reasons for being in Iraq. Over a hundred thousand people died because of my decisions, but I have said I have no trouble sleeping. I have no conscience. I learned that from Dick Cheney."

    "I released Iran from a war with iraq so they would have the freed resources to develop terrible weapons against us. I ruined the United States economy. Increased health care costs while making it harder to declare bankruptcy. Hurt the poor and middle class to better feed the greed of the super rich. I embarrassed the Republican party at every opportunity."

    "I over spent like crazy, not even vetoing one single wasteful spending bill put forth by my Republican Congress and Senate my entire first term. O stole two elections undermining the democratic process. I reduced trust in the government. I surrounded myself with a psychopathic staff. I ruined the economy and ran the National Debt from a surplus I inherited to the biggest deficit in history. Your grandchildren will still be paying for my spending mistakes. And I did all this displaying an obnoxious sneer and egotistical swagger. I pretended to be religious to fool my Christian followers."

    "My staff told lies to discredit war heros John McCain and John Kerry"

    "I have learned denial, greed, and how to engage in an eight year long egotistical fantasy costly to all humans everywhere on earth except my base. My base is that fraction of one percent of the people who are super wealthy. It is for them that I did all that I did."

    "Goodbye fools. I will now go back to Crawford and crawl back under my rock."

    confident, yet he's no longer too worried approximately it. Cheney for sure does not care. He became into asked as quickly as in an interview approximately public opinion and that they pronounced "does it count what the accepted public thinks?" and Cheney pronounced "no". Bush hopes to have a powerful legacy yet he's the scapegoat for each and all of the themes we are having. particular he did play a functionality in the somewhat some problems, yet he's being given each and all of the blame. His terrible speeches additionally levied public opinion against him, he's definitely no longer a great speaker like Ronald Reagan or the somewhat some different older presidents.

    "So long, suckers."

    It will be the shortest and most accurate farewell address in Presidential history.

    He will first use his line and then a line from Forest Gump.

    "uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, smoke em out and kill em".

    and that's all I have to say about that"
