George Bush calls Michael Phelps after 8th gold medal

After residential merman Michael Phelps scored his eighth medal of the 2008 Beijing Olympics, he received a call from residential funnyman and all around nice guy George W. Bush. It's not uncommon for a president to call an athlete after a major competitive victory.

What is unusual is that Bush didn't just get on the roof and shout his praise in the general direction of China, since Phelps could probably hear a whale pass gas in the depths of the Pacific Ocean with those giant fucking ears of his.

I like how Bush responded faster to Michael Phelps winning his 8th gold medal then Hurricane Katrina.

"I like turtles" said the president.
