Bushism No. ten-thousand two-hundred forty-six
From Bush’s recent interview with the NY Times: On the risk that his Inaugural Address, with its theme of ending tyranny, created a risk that people in totalitarian societies would rise up unrealistically expecting the backing of the United States: I do appreciate the fact that people listen to my words. I also appreciate the [...]

Peters Map
As seen on an episode of the “West Wing,” the Peters Map projection uses accurate areas therefore displaying a country’s, or a continent’s, true size. The projection also allows you to compare the size of nations, where the Mercator projection (the one in which we are accustomed to) does not. I’m certainly sold on Peters [...]
Building Nations by way of Nation-Building
Bush on nation-building during 2000 debates: “[Somalia] started off as a humanitarian mission and it changed into a nation-building mission, and that’s where the mission went wrong. The mission was changed. And as a result, our nation paid a price. And so I don’t think our troops ought to be used for what’s called nation-building. [...]

The Greatest Man Alive, George W. Bush
Fox News is going to air a special on the president. Surprise, surprise. But the promos for the special use the following quotes by un-named people, which hints towards a degree of partiality, or shall we say, bias… “That’s when I stood at the door, and I contemplated what I would tell the President.” “That [...]
The President Learns A Lesson
President Bush finally, and I mean finally, has admitted mistakes or errors in judgment in hist first term. “Sometimes, words have consequences you don’t intend them to mean. ‘Bring ‘em on’ is the classic example, when I was really trying to rally the troops and make it clear to them that I fully understood, you [...]
The End of WMD
The hunt for weapons of mass destruction – nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons – in Iraq has come to an end. (It actually ended before Christmas.)
