1. Insurance Salesman
A really lazy one, who cuts out of work early to go golfing, then takes credit for the things which other did in his absence.

17. He's not qualified for that
He is, however, qualified to be a lot engineer, loading people's trucks for them and keeping the fencing material straight.

19. If not for Poppy? What was his draft number?
I still maintain this is all Bud Selig's fault. W. should be Commissioner of Baseball (and as a non-fan of baseball, I have no idea whether he would have screwed it up or actually done well).

43. I think you've hit the nail on the head.
He is, above all, a resentful little control freak.

22. Border patrol
I wouldn't vote for him for dogcatcher, but I'll play anyway.

Border patrol agent looking for weapons of mass destruction theoretically but actually looking for coke and pot up from Mexico.

25. plasma donor
and part-time substitute for the guy with the "Every little bit helps. God Bless" cardboard sign.

He'd be a multiply convicted felon for starters. So perhaps something in license plate manufacture.

26. Job?
I always figured he'd be the mean drunk in the bar nobody wants to mess with.

Be pumping gas or pulling fenders in the junkyard between jail terms.

Might find his calling as manager of a we-hold-em-you-shoot-em hunt club. Lots of blood and no skill is his style.

27. He couldn't even hack an Arbys job.
Service jobs take some skill and hard work, you know. I have a hunch Dubya would be still be in the business of ferking up business ventures and still having Daddy and his buddies bailing him out.

32. "Strap-on" man

Would have died by now, however, from testing the current on himself.

44. I can't wait to see what he does after the election...
Edited on Tue Jan-20-04 09:59 PM by silverlib
Probably be on the BOD of Carlyle? Will PNAC have him if he loses the election? I don't think he has anything to offer. Carlyle would take him as a favor to Pappy.

Where WILL he be after the election?

45. The biggest impact PNAC could get out of him would be
the thud after his chartered plane experiences an excursion from controlled flight...

Then they could start pushing for monuments to him in every household. My suggestion, dump red food coloring into a lake that would represent one gallon of red ink for every dollar of debt that the last 16 years of GOP commander in Thiefs.
