Happy Presidents Day Weekend to Everyone

Happy Presidents Weekened to everyone. Here at BruinsNation we sure appreciate strong, powerful, influential, and competent leaders. Bruin football/basketball programs have done well when great competent, well qualified Presidents were in charge of the nation. Last time we won a Rose Bowl we had this guy, one of the all time greats, leading the Nation:

And the last time we hung a banner in Pauley we had this guy leading the country through a period of peace and prosperity:

That was WJC celebrating UCLA's 75th Birthday inside Pauley Pavillion on May 9, 1994, less than a year before we hung banner no. 11. I was there of course. BTW Bruins were 7-1 against SUC when WJC was in the WH. Glory Days. We will have them again. GO BRUINS.

But don't forget Clinton was rooting for Arkansas in 1995.

Ack!!!!

Please post a warning when you're going to mention WJC and any legitimately great president together in the future so those of us who believe that's borderline criminal can avoid it. :-)

Actually ...

Its more of an insult to President Clinton to be lumped with a loser like Ronald Reagan. But then again considering the Lavin like dumbshit liar we now have sullying the WhiteHouse - I'd take Regan. :-)

compentency is not the issue

We simply have a president with a very warped philosophy of what America is about and very evil ideas about what it should be. He is very compentent in carrying out his plans to make America a place for only the wealthy and very stupid.

Mooahhahhahaha!

Yes... yes! And soon the evil monkeys will be unleashed, and the plan will be in full motion. There is no stopping it now.... Those without a million in cash or a sub-80 IQ will be in shackled before long. And all of this could have been avoided had only the vote rigging in Ohio been avoided, and our savior John Kerry put in his rightful place.
