Capitol View

Say what?

Posted at 10:16 AM on December 18, 2008 by Tom Scheck

We're nearly a month away from the transition of power. President Bush has been sitting down for exit interviews, etc. Gallons of ink will be written about the administration in the final month as well.

Late night comedians are also going to have to get more creative since they won't have President Bush and his verbal gaffes to kick around anymore. MSNBC produced a video with some of the more memorable ones (The video also shows Bush poking fun at himself):

UPDATE: A new poll by Pew Research Center for People and the Press says "just 11% say that Bush will be remembered as an outstanding or above average president - by far the lowest positive end-of-term rating for any of the past four presidents."
