Former U.S. President George W. Bush appeared on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" for the first time in a decade.
Bush dropped by Thursday to talk about his new book, "Decision Points," and discussed being the butt of Leno's jokes, wanting grandchildren and life after the Oval Office.
"The last time you were here, it was 2000, it was 10 years ago. And in the last 10 years, thank you for all the material," Leno quipped.
When Leno asked Bush if he was bothered by the comedy spun at his expense, Bush replied, "You know, I hate to tell you, I don't want to hurt your feelings, but I was asleep."
On a more serious note, Leno asked if the president regretted any of the 14 decisions outlined in his new book.
"Well, a big decision is that I'm comfortable with the decisions that I've made," Bush replied. "I think the reader will find that I took a lot of time to make the decisions. There's some things I would like to do over. I wouldn't fly over (the area devastated by Hurricane) Katrina in an airplane and have my picture released from 10,000 feet above the damage conveying the sense that I didn't care when I cared deeply about the fellow citizens down there."
