Someone PLEASE say something nice about George W. Bush

[terrya]

This is from one of several threads at GD 2004. I wasn't sure I could post this there.

Bush is NOT, by any means, going to win in 2004. He's done more to damage this country than the previous 42 Presidents.

I'll start....

[Southpaw Bookworm]

1. His head would make a very decorative doorstop?

How's that?

[Lisa]

57. nope, it's too light ...

It would have to weigh at least 2 lbs. to work properly even with average doors. Unfortunately, *'s cranium just isn't well-packed.

[Dogmudgeon]

2. In all fairness

He has a lot of money.

So SOMEBODY must like him.

--bkl
Maybe it's God.

[Tripper11]

3. He goes to bed early and....

sleeps all night. Imagine if he was a "work-a-holic" how much worse he could have made the planet!

[jbfam4]

6. L O L

You are totally correct. I used to resent his vacations too, but now I am glad he takes them.....otherwise, he would be causing more havoc on our country. People can't take much more.

[VelmaD]

He likes baseball

I like baseball.

That's all I could come up with. :shrug:

[blondeatlast]

38. But he traded Sammy Sosa . . .

[jpgray]

44. He likes to jog?

But then he doesn't know much about it, if he wrecked his joints at what, 56?

[Zuni]

61. sorry

my mother used to jog every day but premature arthritis stopped her in her 40s. It has nothing to do with 'knowing about it', it just means you have joint problems.

[citizen snips]

4. I can't think of anything nice to say.

Because there is nothing nice to say about Bush.

[jimbo fett]

5. His head is hollow so it would be easy to turn into a Chia-Bush(TM).

[wryter2000]

7. Well..

He gave his mother a really hard time when he was younger.

[Ekova]

8. He makes me laugh alot.

Like when he decides to lecture on foreign policy. Or about the out-break of peace in Iraq.

[Bozola]

9. He had a number of sterling attributes

He knows how to strut like a pimp in heat across a flight deck.

He's a very devout man. When he gets down on his knees and prays to Satan, he really means it.

He donates huge amounts of federal cash to his favorite charity, "The Orphaned CEO Fund".

He hasn't accidentally shot anyone while hunting.

He has that special skin tone that looks good in orange prison clothing.

[Blue-Jay]

I liked the do-not-call bill that he signed.

That's about it.

[RebelOne]

12. Right, that's the only thing I can think of.

[neebob]

10. He's prishative. nt

[hippiechick]

11. He probably has a really nice house ....

:shrug:


:hippie:

[Blue-Jay]

13. Actually he's staying in *our* house.

Let's hope we can evict him soon. Not much hope that we'll get our deposit back, though.

[hippiechick]

55. I meant back in Crawford -- that Poppy bought him ...

... where all the photo-ops on 'the pResident working in the barn' are staged ?

But yeah, I can't wait for his smarmy ass to be outta 1600 so they can disinfect it before the real President moves in.

:shrug:

[rbnyc]

14. He'll make a lot of people happy...

...when he's rotting in jail for treason.

[DuctapeFatwa]

15. His reading skills have improved a lot since he was installed

Bigger letters, lil tutoring, small things, but they have made a perceptible difference.

[camero]

54. Yeah, he went from humpty dumpty to Sam I am.

:)

[CanuckAmok]

16. He's tall.

There...that wasn't so bad...was it? Sure...uh...yes, he's...tall.

Ugh, I feel so dirty now!

[neebob]

25. Not by my standards.

What is he - like 5'10"? 5'11"?

[Lisa]

58. 5'11"

... but his campaign literature says he's taller -- the "magic" 6-foot-mark. I think he's like the folks who exaggerate their height (and understate their weight) on their driver's licenses.

[latebloomer]

17. he's mortal

[Faygo Kid]

42. Stole my thunder

That's about all I could come up with that's good about him, too. I guess Barney is OK.

[MasonJar]

18. Why?

[Robb]

19. He'll get to start drinking again, in earnest,

...when he loses in 2004. :shrug:

Or I will...

[bamademo]

20. He likes dogs

That's the only redeeming quality I can think of. However, Hitler liked dogs also. :evilgrin:

[Blue-Jay]

24. When he's not dropping them, that is.

[Zuni]

63. Hitler was an animal lover

and refused to eat meat because it was cruel. Really.

B

[scottcsmith]

21. He's an inspiration

You've got to give him some credit. Somehow, some way, he became president, despite having zero qualifications for the job. Here's a man who proudly declared having a "C" average in college. A man who, by all accounts, did absolutely nothing until age 40, aside from drinking. He got a DUI when he was 30. As a comparison, Bill Clinton was elected Attorney General in Arkansas when he was 28.

Bush attempted many a business venture, all which failed. He was a bit more successful with the Texas Rangers.

From all I've read he wasn't a very good governor, either.

And, after becoming President, his administration was able to bully the Washington press corps into submission, guaranteeing that negative press coverage would be at a minimum.

He's a bad president, but he very successfully became a bad president.

[patricia92243]

31. Good post - but so scary that it is true

[trof]

22. I noticed the buttons on his suits

are always real clean.
Does he have somebody who does that for him?
Sorry, that's the best I can do.
;-)

[frogfromthenorth2]

23. I LOVE the fact that he's gonna be HISTORY real soon !!!!

[tinrobot]

26. He traded Sammy Sosa..

To a team that could use him?

[opihimoimoi]

27. He is a fine example of what NOT to Vote FOR re Presidents.

A Shining Example indeed.

Too many bad signs, habits, weak spots, ineptness, and dullness. This man gives new meaning to ADA. There should be a restriction on giving "challenged people" leadership jobs like being in charge of the NUKES???

Come, we change the Coach, losing record.

[slackdude]

28. He's a uniter, not a divider

He singlehandedly managed to unite a heavilly factioned left against him. Good job!

[blondeatlast]

41. INDEED!

[cliss]

29. I won't do it.

For once, I won't. If I did, my blood would freeze in their veins. So, not today.

[coloradodem2005]

30. He likes Dogs.

That and the No-call bill.

[Fovea]

32. George is mortal and will die someday

And if I live long enough, I might just get to live in a world without him.

Ooops, wait. I am disabled now, I no longer have health insurance after my cobra runs out, and so I will bearly be able to afford the meds that keep me alive...

I guess he probably will out live me.
But the rest of you should consider it good news.

[papau]

33. No check bounced when he paid for his 15 yr old girlfiends abortion

Also, the plane he wrecked by improper landing did not kill anyone.

And he is loyal to rich friend that get into legal trouble like Ken Laym as long as they still have over a hundred million in the bank.

And he does not come across as a bar drunk that is faking being friendly.

[readmylips]

34. He's not a racist....

his mom called him, 'the black sheep of the family.' Because he was a drunk and family abuser.

[Spirochete]

35. Can't do it. Give me something easier...

like removing my retinas with a hemostat.

[Lefty48197]

36. Sometimes he talks funny

and that makes me laugh.

[Deja Q]

37. He brushes his teeth three times a day?

:shrug:

I was going to say "His whatsit is bigger than Barney's?" but then realized that the opposite is far more likely to be correct...

[ChemEng]

39. He has the same first name as my father......

but that is about it.

[blondeatlast]

40. In many ways, he was responisble for the foundation of DU.

[linazelle]

43. He leaves the door open to mend foreign affairs after he's gone . . .

while he's alienated the world community through his divisiveness, stupidity and self serving acts he is so transparent that it's obvious he doesn't represent all Americans. Bush has actually created hope for his successor to mend foreign affairs after he's kicked out of office. All is not lost.

[Lostmessage]

45. He is a divider not a uniter

I can't think of anything good about him at all.

[corporatewhore]

46. he inspired people to become more involvd and politically active

[NoPasaran]

47. He seems to have overcome that snack food problem

It's ages since he's had a pretzel incident.

[baldguy]

48. He has nice hair.

Of course, I'm not one to judge.

[101 Proof]

49. Something nice to say about Bush?

Hell no. I have nothing good to say about him. He doesn't deserve any of my praise, that maggot.

[Nailzberg]

50. He makes Poppy Bush look like a better president

Maybe dad was thinking of his own legacy when he got Dubya to run.

[Zuni]

66. He makes Nixon's legacy look better too

although I will not say that Bush is worse than Nixon. I still do not have all the dirt on Bush, but most of Nixon's criminal activities are now well known.

[watercolors]

51. WHY???

Nothing comes to mind, not one f --- ing thing?

[myomy]

52. Unable.......

.

[terrya]

53. I wanted to try and sound charitable,

I'm one of those people who are very angry about the state of this country. I tried to see if I can be a bit dispassionate...to try and objectively understand why Bush has such high approval ratings. Maybe just to see if there are any positive aspects of George W. Bush...playing devil's advocate on a cold, blustery winter day, I suppose.

But it's a complete failure. Just a waste of time. There just isn't anything nice to say about George W. Bush. Nothing.

[DS1]

56. He's tall

.

[Lisa]

59. well -- he didn't opt for politics early in life ...

That is, he did run for Congress in the 1970s, but he lost.

So he's only been messing things up since the 1990s. Imagine what he could do if he'd been in control of a country for, say, twenty years!

And as others have remarked, the fact he's lazy and takes a lot of time off has probably saved a lot of lives!

[Zuni]

60. He is in good shape physically

He looks like he takes care of himself through execrcisde and a good diet.

[Nailzberg]

62. Except for that liver

WOuldn't it be nice if the average ameican worker could take a hour in the middle of the workday for hitting the stairmaster. This guy doesn't even put in 40 a week.

But he sure is in good shape.

[Zuni]

64. He has cute dogs

that little scotty is very cute. I think his name is Barney.

[Darwin2002]

65. I don't think he has had sex of any kind in the WH

Well, that's evidently important to a lot of people

[Zuni]

67. I don't think He and Laura even hold hands

bodily contact is immoral and causes transfer of germs.

[Zuni]

68. Humor value

Have you ever seen a President so horrible at public speaking? His press conferences are as funny as any movie that comes out in Hollywood.
I can sit and watch him stumble over words for hours.

[Redneck Socialist]

69. He goes fishing...

...I go fishing. Best I can do. I have (had) a theory that anyone who fishes can't be all bad. I'm having to re examine that idea though.
