miss him yet
During an interview to be aired Wednesday evening, Morgan asked his honored guest, “Which people that you’ve ever met have really impressed you?”
“I think Nelson Mandela,” responded the Dalai Lama. “Of course as individual, individual person, I love President Bush.“
“Which one?” asked Morgan.
“The younger one,” said the Dalai Lama
Morgan incredulously responded, “Really?”
“Really,” he clarified. “As a human being. Not as a president of America. Sometimes his policy may not be very, very successful. But as a person, as a human being, very nice person. I love him.”…

Captain Bullshit is such an infantile prick. I bet he does throw things and kick doors off camera.
BTW, that pic is really material for Moochelle’s dresses, not the WH garbage dump.
Well, … maybe both.
Those two contrasting pics could not be more representative of the difference between an honorable man and a brash narcissistic brat.
“But as a person, as a human being, very nice person.”
As opposed to that flatworm, Piers Morgan.
“Gunga galunga… gunga, gunga-galunga.”

Why does anyone feel the need to criticize President Bush before they compliment him?
That is one thing I can say I do miss about W, he was a nice guy. As TomR said, those 2 pictures show the difference between a good man and a jerk.
But geezerette, to answer your question, because as a president, Bush sucked. About the only thing he got right were 2 SCOTUS picks. Otherwise, we could have done without a lot of his stuff…
I love him too.
I love him three.
Oh I do respect Bush far far more than any president since Reagan.
Faults? Sure he had ‘em. I’ve never seen any president who’s policies were 100 percent sucessful and/or those I liked. So?
Character counts. Bush has it. Obama doesn’t and never did.
Well said Paul.
Add my ditto to your comment.
I tho’t he was great and I never felt the need to go along with those who tho’t they had to criticize him before they complimented him —did they think it took them off the hook for saying he was a good person? I still don’t see what he did the was so terrible. No one actually explains what it is he did. I remember a country that was doing pretty good even with all he had to contend with. I remember how nasty the democrats were to him. How he got blamed for everything that happened. They did everything in their power to stop him or make him look bad. I remember Pelosi and those last two years. I think of what we have now and what we might have for another 4 years and it scares the crap out of me.
Rekon there be any dead hookers in that garbage pile?
Lightbulbs. Remember the fucking lightbulbs.
And the Dali Lama is about one step removed from Miss Cleo on late nite infomercials.
Nice of Bush to treat him right and all, but the little bastard can lick my Balzac. Just because he’s opposed to the red chinee don’t make him a saint. He’s as dirty as any of them.
Color me nervous around a guy who wears a shitty-colored bed sheet——-outside the bed room.
As long as the sheet isn’t full of dna tracks I guess it’d be O.K..
You guys are tough—I remember how much Reagan was criticized and now he’s the conservative GOD. Light bulbs and the switch grass and corn— he folded –yes he did. I didn’t like that. He got worn down. It’s still doesn’t compare to what’s going on behind the curtain with this administration. Not even close.
I still miss and admire Bush.
I wasn’t saying anything against Bush, Well, except for the lightbulb thing. He really screwed the pooch on that one.
I wouldn’t mind having a beer and some Doritos© with him sometime.
Bush had to trade a ton of “what’s right” for “what’s necessary” to finance the wars. His biggest fault, in my mind, was in not being successful in separating out the pork by exposing the hypocrisy of both parties.
Dubya wasn’t conservative enough for me,
but he certainly was presidential enough.
Piers was lookin’ for an anti-Bush zinger.
They consider that journalism.
Fail …
At least he avoided asking the Dalai Lama about gun control.
I’m w/ColJ on the outfit. Those guys always look two beers away from a toga party.
(What? Minor cultural bias, yeah.)
Bush had to take us through 911. There’s no telling what a Democrat would have done. Come to think about it, we know what they would have done. Remember all those MSM TV anchors who threw away their American flag pins?
The Dalai Lama is one of the more significant people around. Just ’cause you know nothing about him doesn’t mean he’s “late night TV” material.
