Goodbye Bush Jokes

The late-night comedians offer thanks and bid farewell to President Bush:

"President Bush has asked all the major networks for 15 minutes of air time on Thursday to give his farewell speech to the nation. Well, the White House says he’s going to use part of the time to list his accomplishments. No word yet what he’s going to do with the other 14 minutes.” –Jay Leno

"But I think everybody has warm feelings for George Bush now. He held his final press conference yesterday.

Those two things." –David Letterman
