This was the most fabulous of Bush-isms I have yet to see....George endorsing John McCain during the RNC. God love him, the man had to give his speech via satellite and in doing so, there was a technology glitch.
At first, I was appalled that he actually uttered the words, "I know what it takes to be president." That right there opens a can of worms large enough to engulf our entire nation. However, instead of getting pissy about what he was talking about, I couldn't help but smile at his unfortunate (but possibly greatest) Bush-ism to date. It could possibly be one of his last, ladies and gentlemen, so enjoy it while you can.
In case you missed it...after each "profound" comment that he makes about McCain, he awkwardly smiles at the camera...in complete silence. It's as if he's waiting for people to agree with him...but no one does. It is greatness and sadness at the same time. He really deserves a "bless his heart" for his entire presidency. I love that this could quite possibly be how he exits.
Of course, Brian Williams explains after his speech that there was supposed to be an "audio switch" in which case the TV viewers would be able to hear the applause from the live RNC while listening to Bush's speech. Didn't happen though. Poor Republicans.
I recommend You Tubing this one.
