Also known as one of the biggest piece of shit.
Today I Learned
What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

The W administration was a who's who of pieces of shit.
And yet quaint in retrospect
He was arguably a worse president than even Trump. Which of them is a worse human being is a different question.
#MISSION ACCOMPLISHED
Thank god a lot of things have happened since then. Like... Things.
Donald Rumsfeld also holds the record for deflecting the most direct questions if he is a secretly a lizard person: https://youtu.be/qQ8L9OQZs1A
Hmmm, there's one part of the recording that's edited out right after Louis asks "Did you have more capability to fly it because of your lizard reflexes?" He says "I've got a thought for you..." But what does he say next? Why did they cut it??
Lizard people are able to disrupt electronics like cameras and microphones.
Probably also the record for 'getting people you have shot in the face to apologize to you on TV'. It only happened once, but it was still weird.
edit: fuck me I'm getting old, that was Dick Cheney.
He never answered. Big lizard energy. Love that he did that
Words from the man George W. Bush thought was the right guy for secretary of state:
We know where they are [Iraq's weapons of mass destruction]. They're in the area around Tikrit and Baghdad and east, west, south and north somewhat.
Is this a known known, or an unknown unknown?
Deep thoughts from Teflon Don.
For a brief moment during Bush(Cheney) years, there was this screensaver with some of the more outlandish quotes from his press briefings.
He had a way with words, and that way was to go nowhere. It was an art form.
Literally why I ended up on his wiki page. I was googling this as I tried to explain the concept to someone lol
Where’s the $2.3 TRILLION DOLLARS, LEBOWSKI???!!!
I’m so glad he’s dead, what a shit person. That whole administration was terrible and Bush was just a fucking idiot letting it all happen. Conservatives need to lose big in November because their legacy is dead.
Plus he's the one that brought us aspartame. What a guy.
