Reply #8: Why would anyone WANT Bush's watch? [View All]

[jmowreader]

Bush is clumsier than Gerald Ford ever thought of being. Plus, drunks fall down a lot.

Add to that his hobbies such as brush-clearing, mountain biking and beating his shoe against the table, all of which are very hard on wristwatches.

There's no way he'd wear a real expensive watch because they'd never last. He probably just sends one of his minions to Wal-Mart every couple of months to buy a case of their $9.95 watches. Wear one for a week or two, whack it against the desk while jumping up and down screaming that you're the president, it goes dead, you open the desk drawer and get out a new one...no big deal.

Extra bonus: they can keep one set to every time zone he's going to and just trade watches with him before he gets on the plane. As much as he's in the Central Time Zone, it saves his handlers worry.
