Ever Forward
On The Daily Show Thursday night, John Hodgman examined George W. Bush’s frequent statements that he’s “looking forward to” things he’s not looking forward to at all.
Hodgman: The president is a legitimate optimist. He is compelled to always look forward.
Jon Stewart: Why do you say “compelled?”
Hodgman: Well, if he were to look back, he might see the trail of devastation he’s left behind him.
Gee, I wish I was optimistic.
