Even on his way out, President Bush can't keep his foot out of his mouth. Jacob Weisberg over at Slate.com picked up on his latest "Bushism" today in an interview he gave Tuesday to CNN. Upon being questioned by Candy Crowley about the auto and banking bailouts, he tried to explain what he's doing to help the situation. Epic Fail.

Here's what he said:

"I've abandoned free-market principles to save the free-market system."

Huh? I'm no economics professor but that does not compute. Check out the video below.
