Following the post just released on KiwiPulse.com showing the soon-to-be former president with many memorable face expressions during his presidency, I though it would be a good idea to compile a collection of Georgie in the advertising world. After all, George W. Bush is one of the most popular figures in our time with his familiar face being in numerous advertisements all over the world.

Below are some of the most interesting ads from the many creatives who tried to dissect Georgie’s character in order to sell an idea or a product.

Made for Milenio, A Mexican newspaper claiming  they solved the inner workings of Bush’s personality with a tagline translated to English reads: “Such a complex world needs a good explanation.”…Simpson + Texas cowboy = GWB.

Bush is just like the funny tasting syrup…you either love him or hate him.

“Are you going to ask that question with shades on? For the viewers there’s no sun” - GWB addressing a blind reporter during a press conference. Tesa, an adhesive tape brand, will sure keep Bush silence.

Be SMART Bush. Open your mind…

Amnesty International Spain thinks Bush is like an annoying insect that they can’t get rid of it.

Amnesty International is urging people to join their ‘letter writing campaign to stop the US government from abusing prisoners. Your letter could make a big difference. To help visit www.amnesty.org and stamp out injustice with a stamp. Remember, use simple words’. Very well executed!

Sport Factory Outlet, a outlet retailer in Switzerland, trying to sell helmets. Even the president of the U.S fall more than once on a bicycle so wear a helmet to protect your head!

With a Stabilo Erasable pen made in Hong Kong, you could have corrected the ballot…but everyone makes mistakes!

A billboard for the movie, Lord of War, defaced with an image of the U.S. president’s mosaic portrait made up from pictures of the soldiers who died in the war. Very creative.

Lipton Australia argues that their ice tea would improve thinking and memory skills, even for the president. A very creative idea using a news letter concept: “The Daily Focus…George W. Bush successfully names all 50 US states”. According to the news letter Bush credits his monumental improvement to a ‘magic water’ from ‘China land’.

A New Zealand TV channel, TVNZ, isn’t afraid to share to the world their views about Bush. They advertise the famous movie American Psycho with the face of the U.S. president on the outdoor billboard. By the way if you have not seen the movie, Bush is not in the movie.

Brazil throw in a strong line by saying: ” We don’t show naked women to sell more. At the most, we show some asses.” Ouch!

The South African History Channel implying that history does repeats itself…in the U.S.

Be Bush for a day…play war games at Paintpark.pt, the paint ball park in Portugal. Paintpark.pt invites organizations to recruit their employees for a game of paintball, war style.

Does eroding freedom make Bush the No. 1 public enemy? A local newspaper from Cape Town asked the question.

Dreamland mattress will cure any wicked soul…even Bush. Not  quite sure about that!

IPPU, a Romanian sticker company, claims that the labels printed by them look more realistic than they are. Look! Bush and Fidel Castro together. Oh really? Wait a minute…that’s not real.

A very interesting concept indeed. This ad campaign’s objective is to promote and sell celebrity pubes. You can order celebrity pubes that have been autographed and mounted…selection range from Ultra Celebrity, B-List to C-List. How disgusting!

Weld Kompalt, a compact size newspaper, bring BIG NEWS in SMALL SIZE. At least Bush was cute as a kid.

Hope you enjoy viewing the collection as much as I do. Last but not least, we salute you Georgie.
