Bush's Series of Unfortunate Disappointments

This week, President Bush gave a post-election Sarah Palin level of exit interviews, in which he tried to make sense of his legacy. As usual, Jon Stewart puts it all into perspective, hilariously:



There we go, Bush finally admitted to making a mistake...in the Mission Accomplished sign. Hey, it's a good start. Maybe by 2024 he'll say there should have been an occupation strategy for Iraq. Baby steps Bushie, baby steps. But it's unfair to blame Bush for things that were clearly our fault. The Iraq War, Hurricane Katrina, the financial crisis, we let him down...somehow. And hey, complete obliviousness to anything that's happened in the last eight years is preferable to that imitation of self-pity he did. You just stick to your principles, insisting you'd rather be unpopular than....right?
