It's coming towards the end of the year, which means I need to think about replacing my 'George W Bushisms' desk calendar. This great little gift from my father has provided me – and the rest of the magazine staff – with a year's worth of unintentionally amusing quotes from the US president.
Today's entry is particularly fine:
For every fatal shooting, there were roughly three nonfatal shootings. And, folks, this is unacceptable in America. It's just unacceptable. And we're going to do something about it.
-Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; May 14, 2001
I know, I know – the quotes are given out of context; everyone makes mistakes when speaking in public; it's just Democrat propaganda. But it's still pretty funny, especially as I'm not American.

I think it's hiliarious and I AM an American. But not proud to be one...
But of course the best Bushism ever was "The problem with the French is that they have no word for 'entrepreneur'".
