George W. Bush is a decent man who does not hold prejudices against anyone because of their race, color, or creed, and actively tried to combat racism and prejudice in his own way.

George Bush is a pretty good painter.

GWB is a half way decent painter and he knows his baseball. I also give him kudos for fighting AIDS.


I just can't think of anything good to say about Dick Cheney.

From what I've been able to piece together, the known handedness of some U.S. Presidents:

Left-handed: Obama, Clinton, Bush 41

Left-handed by nature, forced to switch to right (usually by schoolteachers): Reagan, Ford, Truman, possibly Hoover

Ambidextrous: Garfield (was known to write with both his left hand and right hand at the same time as a party trick to amuse friends).

I suspect the rest are largely unknown, or if they were left-handed, were probably forced to switch at a young age and nobody is aware of that.

I did too! Loved that television moment. I remember being offended that someone would actually throw a shoe at him but loved the dodge and grin and thought he handled it well.

I think that Sarah Palin is probably a very strong woman and certainly she is pretty.

Paul Ryan is attractive.
Al Sharpton looks better as a slimmer guy. <- Not sure if he's considered a politician, but I'm not a fan.
Ronald Reagan has a good head of hair.
GWB's artwork is very nice.

I can't think of anything nice to say about Nixon.

I think Obama like GWB would be fun to sit down, drink a beer with and watch the game.
Bill Clinton is probably great at parties. (Provided your, wife, mother or daughters are not in attendance.)

Palin is MILF

[Tilt11]

Harry Reid was once a decent human being, a long time ago....... or so I've heard.

Does that count?
