Hey, now that you've gotten past the Ad-Busters "Don't Buy Anything Day", here's a rare deal for you. A George Bush calendar so that you can drool over your idol for 10 months and one week next year:

Presidential (Mis) Speak 2004 Calendar: The Very Curious Language of George W. Bush

amazon.com

Some of the words that have escaped George W. Bush's mouth:

"Russia's most precious resourse is the brain power of this country. And you've got a lot of it. It's going to take a lot of brains in Russia to create a drain."

"Policies that stimulate growth ought to be the centerpiece of public policy."

"And... it's gettin' worse. That's what people have gotta understand up there in Washington, or over there in Washington, down there in Washington, wherever - thought I was in Crawford for a minute."

******
And the critics love it!

"Our President certainly has many qualities and talents - the English language is not one of them. Butchered and scrambled, George W. Bush has taken the language of the land into uncharted territory. - This calendar dishes up some of the juiciest tid-bits, all collected from actual public speeches or recorded conversations, so (sadly) there are no mistakes or misunderstandings copied down here. With a definite speech impediment, how sure could W. really be that Iraq was building up to be a nucular power, and what exactly is a nucular power? - As a satirical commentary, this book is a riot!***** "
