Can we put a hold on his paychecks?










Bush dogged on vacation by critics
By Richard Benedetto, USA TODAY Wed Aug 24, 7:01 AM ET

When is a presidential vacation not a vacation?

Try as he might to get away during the almost five weeks he's scheduled to be out of the White House, mostly at his ranch near Crawford, Texas,
President Bush has had his August vacation shadowed by anti-war demonstrators.

***

Monty Mericles, 55, a Boise electrical engineer who attended an anti-war rally here Tuesday, said Bush's insistence on vacationing is "typical of his attitude about everything - blasé and unempathetic toward those who disagree with him."

***

Bush is not unmindful of the criticism. But he says he needs some time off from the job.

"I think the people want the president to be in a position to make good, crisp decisions and to stay healthy," Bush said during an Aug. 13 bike ride with journalists at his ranch. "And part of my being is to be outside exercising. So I'm mindful of what goes on around me. On the other hand, I'm also mindful that I've got a life to live, and will do so."

2. Do they have to slap the flag on EVERYTHING he wears?
I guess it's better than that "Commander-In-Chief" jacket he wears sometimes, though.

3. He's mindful?
A doggoned game of tic-tac-toe fills his mind to overflowing.

12. He's "mindful" all right, as in a mind full of mush.
I so can not wait until he's no longer of importance in any way shape or form. Self important jerk. :grr:

4. Not mindful, mindless and the only crisp
thing about him is the (hopefully) fact that he may soon be toast!

14. and that sickening smirk he has when he manages to spit out
a polysyllabic word makes me want to slap the shit out of him. So pleased is he, by the excellence of himself.

10. Listen to him justify and rationalize
"I think the people want the president to be in a position to make good, crisp decisions and to stay healthy..." Ronald Reagan in eight years did not take that much vacation, and he was a much older man than Shrub, and he was SHOT. I cannot stand Reagan, but if Shrub cannot even keep up with a president much his elder, like Reagan...he is just a whiny little woose.

Iraqis, can't say the same thing thanks to him.

15. He should have been so "mindful" that he had a life to live BEFORE he ran
for office.

Fucking shithead.

Oooh, wah wah, Presidentin' is so hard! I want a life! I wanna ride bikes and catch fishies! Wah wah wah.

You know what I'M mindful of? I'm mindful of the fact that we have an absentee incompetent war-mongering whiner as president. I'm also mindful that it makes me want to :puke:
