Whiner

Bush, you whiny little git. Apparently he’s none to fond of being pushed out of the limelight. This was the exchange after a reporter asked what Bush thought of the California governor’s race, and the reporter had the temerity to call the California race the “biggest political story in the country.”

Bush: “It is the biggest political story in the country? That’s interesting. That says a lot. That speaks volumes.”

Reporter: “Means you don’t agree?”

Bush: “I don’t get to decide the biggest political story. You decide the biggest political story. But I find it interesting that that is the biggest political story in the country, as you just said.”

Pressed on the matter, Bush said, “Oh, I think there’s maybe other political stories. Isn’t there, like, a presidential race coming up?”

Yeah, George, there’s, like, a presidential race, in, like, fifteen months or so. This California thing is, like, right around the corner. Like, really, man. Do you really want us all to, like, spend all our time just, like, bashing you instead? Because we’re certainly capable of it. Especially when your English usage is so, like, impeccable and everything.

Shmuck.
