In our 47th episode of This F*cking Guy, What A Day’s Jane Coaston joins Erin to relive the destruction caused by the witless war criminal, George W. Bush. From his early years of drunken antics, relying on his dad’s help to trip upwards, to leaving MANY children behind as Governor of Texas, to squandering his 9/11 approval ratings by invading Iraq and permitting war crimes, to gaslighting the media about his preparedness for hurricane Katrina, this may be our most moronic man-child guy, yet!
