Is it demeaning to the presidency to call Bush "The Stem" ?
I know people who refer to him by that name. Is that inappropriate? Even though he acts like he doesn't have a brain sometimes, won't that make our enemies think we are being lead by a "brain stem" and make us more vulnerable by referring to him by that nickname? Even if we think he is "The Stem", shouldn't we keep it to ourselves at these dangerous times? By talking about such a topic, isn't that aiding and abetting the enemy? Shouldn't we love our country enough not to insult our leader with such a name? Do these people not love their country?

2. Insulting the presidency
I had a friend who just loved to bash Clinton. He claimed to be a Democrat, but I just couldn't believe that to be so. He claimed Clinton lost his moral authority. I found that to funny. I told him a president's duties are set by statute. People who worry about moral authority are the same people that worry about how many angels can commit sodomy on the head of a six penny nail.
I don't think AlQaeda, or any other enemy of the US gives a rat's ass what I call the elected(or selected) President of the United States. For eight years, the repukes call Clinton every thing but a child of God. The world went right on. The country and the rest of world were better off during the Clinton years than it was during the previous administration(Bush ver 1.0) or after(Bush ver 2.0). In the real world, actions count, not fluff words that the beltway whores get their panties on a bind over.

5. Our enemies knew we were vulnerable when an unelected pResident was handed
the presidency by the SCOTUS in December 2000. When the USAmericans allowed this to happen, our enemies knew the Republic was wounded, if not destroyed.

Whether the enemies who attacked us on Sept 11 2001 are foreign or domestic (or both) has never been proven. By not demanding the truth, we are again aiding and abetting the enemy.
