The media likes to make political leaders their scapegoat. News sells better when leaders entertain the masses with their klutziness or foot-in-the-mouth sound bytes. At the forefront of such "comic" public figures is President George W. Bush. George Bush is probably the most quoted American President. Here is a collection of funny George Bush quotes.
