Bush is on King

The President and First Lady sat down with The Disgruntled Chemist’s favorite person in the whole wide world, Larry King (who still hates your stinking guts and wants to kill you), and said a whole bunch of stupid bullshit, but this is definitely the best of the lot:

I like to tell people I would rather be -- when history looks back, I'd rather be judged as solving problems and being correct, rather than being popular.

When history looks back. Let’s just think about that for a moment. When history…looks back. If Bush is planning on history looking back, I certainly hope he has Robert Zemeckis and Michael J. Fox on the payroll and chooses Dr. Emmett Brown as his official presidential historian.

As for the rest of his dreams of legacy, he might want to scale it down a bit. Maybe not so much problem-solver as problem-causer. Maybe not so much correct as corrupt. Just a few little adjustments here and there, and then when history looks back, he won’t be quite so disappointed.
