In his newly published memoir, Decision Points, former President George W. Bush hailed his most critical "decision point" as choking on a pretzel, which caused him to faint and fall off the sofa while watching American football on television.
"The pretzel-choking decision was by far my most critical," wrote Bush, "Because it taught me the important lesson of chewing before attempting to swallow food."
Bush also ranked the pretzel-choking incident as his fourth most embarrassing after 1) Cheney shooting a guy, 2) Dodging a flying shoe, and 3) Getting caught on tape sarcastically searching for WMDs under his office desk.
Bush concluded by saying he regrets not getting to serve a third term because he's pretty sure he could have bankrupted the US and broke the entire world.
