Pardon My President
Whether you voted for Bush or not, you owe the world an apology. He’s your president, after all, and the last eight years have been disastrous. Pardon My President features dozens of opportunities to say “I’m sorry”—just sign your name, fold along the score lines, and add a stamp.
Here are hilarious and heartbreaking apologies to Al Gore, the people of France, the nation of Iraq, gay Republicans, the city of New Orleans, the pretzel industry, and everyone and everything else the Bush administration has wronged, including
Fiscal Conservatives: “Six years after taking office, George Bush and his Republican-controlled Congress had taken those surpluses and turned them into the largest debt in the history of our nation—more than 9 trillion dollars.”
The English language (c/o Harvard University Department of English): “No individual, with the possible exception of Larry the Cable Guy, has wronged you so profoundly.”
Harry M. Whittington: “I’m sorry Dick Cheney shot you in the face.”
Pardon My President is the perfect gift for Bush bashers and disenchanted Republicans.
