1. wow -- I can't believe that almost 40% picked Bush

Good grief. He'd be so busy hacking away at the trailside brush to show off his machete, he'd lead us right over a cliff. And the thought of listening to his whiny self-justifications for mile after mile -- no way!

[Eye and Monkey]

5. He'd ask you to carry his water, his jacket, his pack. He'd complain -

incessantly about his shoes/boots - not broken in, need to sit for a minute to re-adjust, something Wrong with these damned things that's why I'm gettin' so out of breath, etc.

And of course, the inevitable starts 10 minutes into the hike - "are we THERE yet?"

8. You kidding?

* would probably insist on a piggyback ride.

You think he's actually going to do all that "hard work" himself?

[Eye and Monkey]

9. Well, I have had a monkey on my back before, but -

he/she was alot cuter.

2. wtf?

That poll cant be right. Why would they prefer to hike with Bush? To show him the error of his ways?

3. I don't know what happened...

I bent down to tie my bootlace and when I stood up again, he was gone...:evilgrin:

4. Chimp could probably identify shit droppings better than Kerry

Because he rolls around in it on a daily basis.

I would hike with Chimp so I could push him of a cliff, Lisa. :evilgrin:

6. it better not be the Niagara Escarpment!

Ontario's Bruce Trail meanders along one of the world's most extensive cliff systems (the same one that Niagara Falls goes over) -- hundreds of kilometres long -- home to beautiful rare species. It's been declared a Biosphere Reserve. The thought of defiling it with Dubya appalls me!

7. Can Bush actually operate his feet unaided?

[Eye and Monkey]

10. Earpiece and constant advice.

Left foot. Good, now, right foot. That wasn't so hard, shall we try it again? Left foot, no the other foot's your left, balance, balance.
