Paul McCartney Slams Bush At Obama Led Event
Ebony and Idiot
At a White House ceremony, President Obama presented Paul McCartney with the Library of Congress Gershwin Award.
In the closing moments of his acceptance speech, McCartney stated, "After the last eight years, it's good to have a president that knows what a library is."
The ever caring McCartney seems to forget that the man who he took a none-so-subtle swipe at Bush, is (according to the Washington Post) the same man who has "quietly tripled direct humanitarian and development aid to the world's most impoverished continent [Africa] since taking office and recently vowed to double that increased amount by 2010 -- to nearly $9 billion."
And in a Reuters article, Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete said in a welcome speech to the visiting American leader in 2008, "But we in Tanzania, if we are to speak for ourselves and for Africa, we know for sure that you, Mr. President, and your administration have been good friends of our country and have been good friends of Africa."
Bush has spent more money on aid to Africa than his predecessor, Bill Clinton, and is popular for his personal programs to fight AIDS and malaria and to help hospitals and schools.
The African leader also stated that Bush's legacy in Africa would be "saving the lives of hundreds of thousands of mothers and children who would otherwise have died from malaria or AIDS and enabling millions of people to get an education."
As of this date, there has been no apology from "Sir" Paul.

I think the onus is on "sir" Paul to prove that the current occupant of the White House DOES know what a library is! I'd bet SERIOUS money that Bush has read & understood more books than PEBO has.
The "liberals" way of "fighting" Malaria seems to involve "providing" Mosquito nets, and a hearty pat on the back to themselves.
Look who else is in the picture, other than "Paulie" McCartney~ "Jerry" Seinfeld. Anyone know that Seinfeld met his wife while she was on her honeymoon (with someone else)? That's loathsome, yet these are the people that Obama invites while he detests President Bush and conservatives.
