Apart from the unintended hilarity in the title, this article from Stuff lists what newspaper editorials have been saying on George Dubya's last day.

I did particularly enjoy this bit:


Germany, ridiculed as "old Europe" by Bush's former defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld for opposing the Iraq invasion, took aim at Bush.

"Bush brought great misery to the world with his 'friend-or-foe' mentality," wrote Die Zeit.

The GERMANS!! Accusing someone else of bringing misery to the world!! The peace-loving Germans, who would never use a 'friend-or-foe' mentality to bring war to the world.

Irony, I dub you the Germans.

I like how they seem to be blaming him for the current recession. I guess it's handy to have a scapegoat.

Sorry but I think you're living abit in the past there.. and quite uninformed aswell.

Germany has done very little to bring misery to the world and are actually prospering quite well, even with their economic troubles.

You can only pass it off as a joke if it were funny.

Does satire have to be funny or can it just be amusing?

Pain can be quite amusing to some people.
