George W. Bush launches Facebook contest - Go on, Ask Him!

IF you've ever wanted to ask former US President George W. Bush in person about his new memoir "Decision Points," start getting your questions ready, a posting on his Facebook page says.

The message - left on a page which the former president launched in June to publicise his memoir, due to hit the shelves November 9 - tells contestants to submit five questions they’d like to ask Mr Bush.

Make sure you submit your BEST 5 questions
What are your 5?

November 9?
November 9 is also known as Krystal Nicht (The Night of Broken Glass). The night WW2 began.
I hate that man.

Very observant of you.
Only 5 questions? hmmm.....
1) what did your father tell you about the JFK assassination?
2)Did they tell you about 9/11 before it happened or did they consider you too much of a security risk to let you in on the plan?
3) How long before 9/11 was the PATRIOT act written?
4) How much does it cost to have your National Guard records stolen?
5) Why did your family buy so much land in Paraguay?

Actually it was 1938, the year before WW 2 started.

If you want to get nitpicky about when the events that lead to World War II started, that would have been the evening of November 11, 1918.

Interesting timing. that and his sth american lans purchases......

Five questions hmm, well I guess mine would be.....
1.) Are you happy to see Obama getting at least a modicum of the disrespect you had heaped upon you during your presidency?
2.) Do you regret the patriot act?
3.) Just how much of our money supposedly going to black ops goes elsewhere?
4.) How did being president compare to being the presidents son?
5.) Where did the gold go?

You'll notice that Cheney didn't step up and make this offer!

Letting W answer anything is like doing a Q&A with a muppet and not actually trying to speak to the guy with his hand up Kermits posterior..

~Heff

1- how can you sleep at night?
2- how can you look at yourself in the mirror and not get sick?
3- how many times did you have to tell yourself that you are a tough guy cowboy before you believed it?
4- how many times did you have to tell yourself that you were doing the right thing for your bank account before you convinced yourself that flushing the country down the toilet was a good decision?
5- May I kick you in the testicles?

Nice, but i dont think he has emotions.

But everyones questions have to be in by....

Deadline for submitting questions is October 21.

Which probably means you have to be signed up in facebook to post your questions to him...

In asking him the questions we assume that he can type and spell. This is nothing more than marketing for his book. I am surprised he has "written" a book and would question whether he is the author.

Rather than a question, I would put forward a request to him, to apologize for all the crap he has done and caused and "end" himself in a samurai fashion.

Ha!

Remember all the jokes about GW writing a book? It is a pop-up book, a coloring book, etc.

That would mean ending his life in honor.. How can one do that if they have no honor to begin with?
Ahh screw just have him do it anyway we can say he has honor and that will be that..

So really this is just a politcal trolling thread with people advocating the death of a former president.....I wonder how it's gonna be in 2 more years when Obama ghhost writes a book? Oh wait, I'm probably a racist for thinking that. Seems to me Obama is even dumber than President Bush, as he has kept in place so many of President Bushs policies...............whos dumber, the one who does it wrong the first time, or the one who keeps right on trying the same failed thing?

So sensitive. Everyone in here was having a good time and a few laughs at the expensive of a president we didn't like, and here comes the "I know you are but what am I?" guy to tell us that we are jerks for thinking Bush was a sadistic idiot.

Fine, when Obama's third* book comes out, we will make fun of him, too. Happy?

*I think he only has two out now, yes?

Not a trolling thread.
I found a news article.

Bush is accepting 5 questions to answer on facebook.
I dont/wont have a facebook account.

I thought it would be interesting to see what ppls 5 questions would be as his name 'pops' up on numerous forums here.
