"Miss Me Yet?" Bush Merchandise a Hit Online (How Could Anyone Miss Bush When He's Still President?)

Patriot Act and Privacy Issues -- same as Bush

Afghanistan -- more troops = worse than Bush

Iraq -- same as Bush

Bailouts -- same as Bush

Wall Street Love -- same as Bush

Stimulus -- same to slightly worse than Bush

Deficit Spending -- worse than Bush

From CBS

The cheery image of former President George W. Bush appeared on a billboard in Minnesota earlier this month, next to the words, "Miss me yet?" It appears a lot of people think it's a fair question.

The online store CafePress saw a spike in demand for items featuring the same image as the billboard, the New York Daily News reports. Ten "Miss Me Yet?" items were on the company's list of its top-selling designs, CafePress spokeswoman Jenna Martin told the Daily News.

"There were no Obama-themed designs on the list," she said. "Bush has stolen the political spotlight, just like Sarah Palin did the week before when she re-surfaced with crib notes written in her palm."

Obama-themed merchandise saturated the Washington area around the time of the president's inauguration last year, but by the fall, the enthusiasm for Obama caps, t-shirts, commemorative plates and so forth, seemed to fizzle. U.S. News and World Report noted earlier this month that even the Obama Store, located in tourist-filled Union Station, has closed, in what "may be the most tangible sign yet that the [Obama] honeymoon is over."

Only Gobie would miss the largest expansion of Goobermint (homeland insecurity), Bailouts, wall street love, deficit spending, wiping the Ass with the Constitution (Patriot act), and lets not forget bridges, or innattention to a failing electrical grid nationwide, or Trickey Dick's no conflict of interest no bid contracts to Halliburton. Yippee...

Hey SNK, DB has found a lesbian version of Jon Stewart so we get even more lefist sarcasm.

" Only Gomp would still be ignoring Barry Soetoro."

I don't ignore anything, But I recognize that you are not part of the solution, just part of the other problem...

Hi Gompers. Just had to catch up on some sleep. Have you heard? Sleep is good for you.

I wish I knew, have not slept more than 20 minutes at a time for years... Good to see you back.

Well I didn't mean THAT kind of sleep, silly.
