Mean Joe Green #36: Bush Audibles on Handoff to Obama

I’ve been reading all week about Bush’s desire for a smooth transition–a “seamless handoff” to the Obama administration. Well, thanks for the concern George, but I’m not sure how seamless the handoff could be considering the ball you’re handing off is so badly beat up and worn down, battered and bruised…oh yeah, and poisoned.

I’m afraid a smooth transition would’ve required 8 years of care, concern, and sound decision making.

It would also be nice if you didn’t take every last opportunity to enact a wide array of federal regulations which would weaken government rules aimed at protecting consumers and the environment before leaving office in January.
