Who is the real president? Cheney, Rummy, Rove, Delahy (know I have just slaughtered the spelling of his name), Shrub, Condi, or Falwell certainly it is not the shrub! Who really is our president? Maybe you have other names?

Our leader is not the shrub, there are those who are leading this idiot, who is it?

1. What I am really interested to know is
who will the GOP select for their next presidential candidate? Like you, I am sure that Shrub is not really running the country. Therefore it stands to reason that whoever *is* will still want to be running the show in 2008, and they will need a new candidate. Furthermore, they will need another candidate as malleable and empty as Shrub is.

3. No, no president.
Just a commander-in-chief.

5. Sorry
there is not even a leader. Maybe Rove in his dreams wants to be the Pres. or Falwell.

10. Shrub rarely refers to himself as "president"...
Edited on Fri Nov-26-04 02:34 PM by Crankie Avalon
...and neither do a lot of the people who voted for him.

He calls himself "commander-in-chief," and his supporters in "Bush Country" call him "our leader." It's weird how the term "president" almost seems like it's being deliberately avoided.

I guess the constitution spells out the limits of the powers of the president too explicitly so he and his supporters want a new and vaguer term like Fuehrer or something.

4. What's his name...
What's that guy's name from Ohio? My mind is slipping from uncommerialization right now. You know, the guy in OH who was in charge of the shrub/cheney force and voting. Maybe he's running it... then again, it might be 41 Senior enjoying a 3rd term from Kennebunkport (talk about chopping up a word)!

9. Leading
Someone is leading the pukes and it is not the shrub, it is either rove or falwell. Hey I'm not giving respect to those two idiot by capitilzing their names. They don't deserve my respect.
