More Lies?

Okay, so this is not the most serious offense ever, but I still find it telling. When Bush was asked what the best moment of his presidency was, W said the time he caught a 7.5lb Perch. What's so wrong with that you ask? Well... the world record for the largest freshwater Perch is 4lb 3oz. Amazing! He nearly doubled the record on his private lake! Okay, so maybe it wasn't a Perch. We all know George isn't the best with reading. (Even though I'm sure there are pics of Perch available in those fishing books he's probably got!) So I'll let the lapse in fish species identification slide. What I find most telling is the comparison between his answer to the question next to those of the last two Democratic presidents. (Via Rubber Hose.)

to summarize:

carter: the camp david negotiations

clinton: the resolution of the kosovo crisis

bush: that time i caught a big fish on my ranch


Does that bother anyone else?
