Who is *our* Bush?
:shrug:

I see the occasional comments on DU about how we need our own Rove, or our own Rush, etc., but what about our own Bush?

His popularity to me is mind-boggling, but hey, whatever works. So in a twist on the old "if you can't beat 'm join 'em" thing (since I wouldn't actually JOIN them, hahaha!), I propose that we either find a candidate that has the following qualities, or create one in the laboratory:

- blandly handsome in a smarmy way
- possesses a folksy Harvard/Yale charm
- rich as hell
- stupid as fuck
- must have never served in the military (or if he did, must not have ANY medals)
- never achieved anything of consequence
- poor sense of balance
- decent collection of gen-yoo-wine big-ass belt buckles (AKA, Gay Rodeo Shields)

I think we can do this! I really believe that this is what America wants, just a regular old rich kid dumbass.

1. It only works because the GOP does not want to do anything

They want to undo things. so they dont need somebody who is competent. We need at least somebody who is competent enough to explain what we want to do.

4. This profile would only work
if your politics was incompetent destruction, when Bush is done, I don't expect too much to be left over to destroy, the priority will be to pick up the pieces and shape a better world. Once that goal has been accomplished and the people grow complacent, the evil bastards will come out again to slam the good guys over a jay walking ticket and the cycle will begin again.
