George W. Bush, Cheerleader-in-Chief

By , About.com GuideSeptember 8, 2003

Follow me on:

President Bush, the only president with prior work experience as a cheerleader, kicked off the NFL season last week by declaring on camera, "Are you ready for some football?" He got out the pom-poms again on Sunday as he addressed the nation and declared everything peachy in Iraq. Bar patrons in Missouri reportedly expressed disappointment that he made only one reference to weapons of mass destruction in his speech, thus ruining their drinking game. Meanwhile, David Letterman offers his Top 10 Surprises In President Bush's Address To The Nation.

Speaking of cheerleading, bouncy sex bunny Britney Spears revealed herself as a Bush fan during a CNN interview, saying that Americans should support the president in "every decision he makes." Guess that means she won't be French-kissing the Dixie Chicks any time soon.

Joke of the Day:
"Britney Spears preceded the president there at the big NFL kickoff show and her costume was a salute to the president's educational proposals. It's true, every time she turned around you could see a child's left behind." —Bill Maher

Sorry but you are wrong about Bush being the only President with cheerleading experience. Ronny was a BB cheerleader:
