Bush: Kanye West Katrina Remarks Were Lowest Moment of Presidency

It amazes me he has never apologized or shown regret on not finding WMDs in Iraq. that's your lowest moment mr. bush. katrina was a very sad event but at least i can say he was unprepared. he put himself in the situation with the people he had in office, but still you had time to prepare for iraq, a war of choosing and nothing went right

 

Mission Accomplished should have been his lowest moment.

 

haha he has a book coming out? should be good.....

 

His lowest moment is what a pop musician said about him? What a schmuck.

 

Is it a coloring book?

 

Kanye West was probably unfair to say that W didn't care about black people. But it's notable that when asked about the lowest moment, Bush referred to an external criticism rather than own up to mistakes he made.

 

8/6/01 would've been an honorable man's response.

 

he has owned up to nothing during his presidency, its truly amazing and people call obama arrogant

 

so a musician who has only put out 1/2 of a good album calling you racist is 'disgusting', but lying your country into a war which killed hundreds of thousands of innocent men, women and children is ok and authorizing torture is ok?

what a P.O.S.

 

calling someone a racist on national TV during a disaster is pretty low and personal.

I'm sure all the political bashing is easier to disconnect with as well are the typical jokes about him being dumb.

Sometimes there are certain things that just happen to dig into people, and it doesnt have to be what you think it should be.

oh, i'm sorry. I forgot. I'm just supposed to bash him for no real reason because that's cool

 

no, his low moment should be something he did and he should take responsibility for. the mission accomplished fiasco is a perfect example.

if obama was asked this question and his answer is when Wilson screamed "you lie", would you be okay with that

 

Ahh, Republicans take back the House and we return to old faithful: bashing Bush.

Not that it isn't fun, though!

 

Yeah, people in this thread are bashing Bush for "no real reason."

 

I actually understand. It's Kanye West!! That dude's got cache... wouldn't want him calling ME a racist.

 

Def up there with Glenn Beck calling him a racist who hates white people.

Presidents are humans with feelings, you know.

Does a president not bleed if he gets a cut???

???

 

Seriously this is Kanye West who made the comment. The same guy who interrupted Taylor Swift at the Grammys.

 

wait, so it's ok for Obama to have someone publically calling him racist as a viable option for lowest moments...but not for Bush to have someone publically call him racist.

Like i said before, everyone has something different that really gets at them. It's not completely unreasonable to have a person may be able to shrug something intensely offensive off or perhaps can handle the fact a poor decision was made...but be offended by some random moron making a ridiculous claim.

bottom line, people are different and certain things effect them differently. To tell someone what should be their lowest moment is silly.

 

I wonder if that was Swift's lowest moment? Kayne is really making the rounds!

 

Sure and I would put Kanye West up there with random moron but really the man was the President of the United States and this just makes him look thin skinned and besmirches his legacy. If I was Dubya even if I felt that way I wouldn't say it publically. I mean this would be like Truman saying the lowest point in his Presidency was Harpo Marx criticizing him.
