When Barack Obama takes over as president next week, our country will say goodbye to garbled grammar and curiously assembled rhetoric, and the word will be pronounced nuclear again.
I'm going to miss the Bushisms of the past eight years.
“Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.”
“Thank you, Your Holiness. Awesome speech.” - At a ceremony welcoming Pope Benedict XVI to the White House.
“The fact that they purchased the machine meant somebody had to make the machine. And when somebody makes a machine, it means there’s jobs at the machine-making place.”
“I remember meeting a mother of a child who was abducted by the North Koreans right here in the Oval Office.”
“Rarely is the question asked, is our children learning?”
“They misunderestimated the compassion of our country. I think they misunderestimated the will and determination of the commander in chief, too.”
Finally, my all-time favorite that I simply can't get enough of.
“Too many good docs are getting out of business. Too many OB/GYNs aren’t able to practice their love with women all across this country.”
I'm already feeling a bit misty eyed with nostalgia.
