"Got Wood" is a vile slogan. Tell everyone what it means.

[troublemaker]

"Wood" is porno movie slang for an erect penis. It is a term WIDELY used by *some* men these days. It is slang with which locker room Bush is well familiar.

Bush is a brilliant natural politician. (Really! It's not easy for a retarded man to be loved by 40% of the country) His comment was an inspired intuitive blurt because it appeals to his psycho male base while not offending a lot of women BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT HE WAS CONVEYING.

So please make sure all women understand what this jerk was saying.

1. I can't get it out of my head

15. Kerry said Bush would be defined as running a small business

under Republican rules ... he said Bush declared $84 in income from a timber business.

Bush, being a clueless smartass, said, "I own a timber company? That's news to me, heh heh heh. Need some wood? (or got wood, or want some wood ... not sure). I'll bet Bush thought he REALLY got a zinger over on Kerry ...

Well, the joke's on Bushie. He DOES own a timber business, and he doesn't even friggin' know it!

www.needsumwood.com has the whole story, and the link of explanation to factcheck.org

"Bush is a part-owner of a timber company

“President Bush himself would have qualified as a "small business owner" under the Republican definition, based on his 2001 federal income tax returns. He reported $84 of business income from his part ownership of a timber-growing enterprise. However, 99.99% of Bush's total income came from other sources that year. (Bush also qualified as a "small business owner" in 2000 based on $314 of "business income," but not in 2002 and 2003 when he reported his timber income as "royalties" on a different tax schedule.)” "

6. It's LOG!

"What rolls down stairs alone or in pairs
Rolls over your neighbor's dog?
What's great for a snack and fits on your back?
It's Log, Log, Log!

It's Log, Log, it's big, it's heavy, it's wood.
It's Log, Log, it's better than bad, it's good!
Everyone wants a log! You're gonna love it, Log!
Come on and get your log! Everyone needs a Log!"

Wheeeeee!

7. I'm a woman

and, outside of a few 18 to 22-year-olds, I really don't know any woman who wouldn't know what that meant.
Seriously.

Don't pander. Women DO know what that means - even if they don't want to admit it.

[Democrat 4 Ever]

12. Oh, yeah, women know what that means. Its crude, frat boy,

leering drunk, locker room humor but we recognize it. I don't think that Bush really knows what it means - he probably thinks it is a golf term. He can't relate to offending women, minorities, etc., he thinks he is one of the chosen few and the rest of us are here to serve him.

[NightOwwl]

13. I don't think troublemaker was pandering.

P.S. I'm a woman who knows what it means, and I'm not ashamed to admit it!

[troublemaker]

16. it's not a knock on women

There are all sorts of people in the world. Most women who get this are Democrats. Most Republican women would not. Particularly Bush's fundie base. IMO.

I have several adult and moderately worldly female fundie relatives who say things all the time that almost crack me up because they don't recognize certain double-entendres.

They love Bush. They would be APPALLED if they knew Bush was slyly bragging about his wang, but I guarantee they wouldn't have caught it at all.

8. I thought he said "need wood?"

[MADem]

11. He probably does need wood

Coke can make the little soldier rather sleepy....

[kokomo]

20. Maybe he could order some Viagra from Canada.

[gauguin57]

9. I don't know a single woman who doesn't know the slang meaning

of the word "wood." My girlfriends and I use that term all the time!

Don't misunderestimate us wimmens. Your comment was kind of a boner.

[BattyDem]

18. I'm female ... my friends and I use it, too.

Why wouldn't a woman know what that means? We may not spend a lot of time in men's locker rooms (at least I don't :P), but we have male friends and boyfriends and brothers - we've heard the term many times. :-)

[troublemaker]

19. No misunderestimation. I have no clueless female friends because

I chose my friends. I also don't have Republican friends.

My contention is not that feminist women wouldn't get it, but that ultra-conservative women wouldn't. Bush's female base.

What I was picturing was telling nice old ladies who love Bush that is was sort of rude for him to make an off color comment.

I thought it was understood that any post saying "X means y" is aimed at people who don't know that X means y. (It's no more an insult to others than the phone book is an insult to those of us who already know the number we want to call.)

[TexasLady]

10. I thought the term was 'woodie' n/t

[Touchdown]

17. It'd be worse if he owned a mushroom farm.
