If a 'Mount Shamemore' was built - what 4 republicans should have their face on it

[LynneSin]

Mount Shamemore would be built on a ranch in Crawford Texas and filled with Sewage Waste from failed environmental policies.

What 4 republican faces should be on the carving. For this exercise you do not necessarily need to select presidents nor must they currently be in office.

But they do have to be republicans

[BridgeTheGap]

1. Bush II, Cheney, Nixon, ...

#4 is a toss up...Hoover?

[flvegan]

2. I think that the current quartet of Bush, Cheney, Rove and Condi

have done more damage and brought more shame to this country, more death to this world (based on a lie they started) than any other 4 (or 8) combined.

Those are my choices.

[WoodrowFan]

3. only 4??

Only 4? Then Bush 43, Nixon, Cheney and a generic figure to represent all the people who kept putting them in office!

[LynneSin]

15. Wouldn't that be a Diebold machine

:shrug:

[Totally Committed]

4. Bush (W), Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Colin Powell...

For lying us into the illegal invasion and occupation of the sovereign country of Iraq, and for all that have died -- on both sides -- because of it.

TC

[SteppingRazor]

5. Only four?

I mean, you could go contemporary and just do the last four — Nixon, Reagan, Bush I and Bush II — and have a pretty shameful mountain face.

Or, you could take a long view and include folks like Herbert Hoover, who egged on the Great Depression with his asinine economic Policy. Or maybe even U.S. Grant, who, despite his undeniable greatness as a military leader (one could also say "ruthlessness," but that's not necessarily a bad thing to have in a Civil War general), proved to be one of the crookedest -- or at least most ineffectual -- presidents in history.

And there's plenty more! Sweet Jesus, has their really eve been a decent Republican president since the first one?

[JeffR]

6. Hmmm...

[Alamom]

12. Evil looking bunch......except g-wb...He just looks too stupid........

maybe a two-headed beast is needed for this administration.

[vixengrl]

26. Ooohhh. That looks about right to me.

Finally I can get jazzed about a monument with Reagan on it. :evilgrin:

[Buzz Clik]

7. I suggest something high tech and adaptable.

Some sort of holograms projected on a monolith that can be changed as Republicans find new and more incredible ways to sink deeper into the morass.

One could also imagine themes for each season or month:

• Liars
  
• Thieves
  
• Chickenhawks
  
• Perverts
  
• Drug addicts
  
• Amoral bastards
  
• Evil geniuses
  
• Hypocrites Hall of Fame

The list is so long, that a monument like Rushmore simply won't do.

[Burma Jones]

8. Reagan, The Chimp, Scalia, Tim McVeigh

[rurallib]

9. W, Reagun, Nixon and .......... has to be cheney or Rove

I'd go with Cheney

[Totally Committed]

10. Rove doesn't deserve a "monument".... I was sort of thinking a urinal in the Capital Rotunda

with his name engraved on a plaque about it, for those who intend to piss all over the AMerican people right out where everyone can see them.

There would be free toilet paper provided with the Constitution printed on it for when they are done.

TC

[LynneSin]

16. How about his name engraved on the urinal cake

:shrug:

[Totally Committed]

18. Engraved urinal cake, it is!

Why give the bastard a plaque? :rofl:

TC

[rurallib]

19. Folks, I (see) smell a business opportunity

[frogcycle]

32. .

[madinmaryland]

11. Bush, Cheney, Rove, and Delay.

[iconoclastic cat]

13. Faces on the monument? No, wrong end. nt

[LeftishBrit]

14. Bush, Cheney, Reagan and either Strom Thurmond or Jesse Helms

And you can add Tony's head up Bush's rear end, and Maggie's up Ronnie's.

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

17. Cheney, Addington,Gonzo,and Rove

Bush is just their useful idiot.

[ncteechur]

20. W would be a booger in Reagan's nostril.

[ProudDad]

42. That's good

actually:

hoover, ray-gun, bush I, cheney (with bush II as a booger in HIS nose)

[LWolf]

21. Only 4? How to narrow it down?!?

George W. Bush
Dick Cheney
Ronald Reagan

I'm not having any trouble with the first 3, but there is so much competition for the 4th!

Pick one:

Rove
Arnold
Paige
Gonzalez
W.J. "Pete" Knight

I could go on forever. Somebody else can pick my 4th.

[saltpoint]

28. Agree. There's way too many bad Republicans and not nearly enough mountains.

It'll take all the Himalyas and half the Alps just for the current minority in the U.S. House!

[More Than A Feeling]

22. Dick Cheney, Richard Nixon, Joseph McCarthy, and Tom Delay.

That quartet has caused more trouble over the last half century than anyone else. George W. Bush would have been nothing at all without those evil bastards to set the stage for him.

[Dogmudgeon]

23. McCarthy was a Democrat

As in Fred "God Hates Fags" Phelps.

Sad but true.

--p!

[Dogmudgeon]

24. Nixon, Bush Jr., Limbaugh, and Nader

(Flame-retardant suit on.)

--p!

[More Than A Feeling]

25. Joseph McCarthy started as a Democrat, but became a Republican before entering the senate.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_McCarthy

Yeah, it sucks about Fred Phelps, as it does about Lyndon LaRouche.

[Dogmudgeon]

36. I didn't know McCarthy switched over

The Counterpunchers LOVE to bring that point up.

How 'bout Martin Dies? Another Democrat, but another era.

Yet, from Texas. Some things never change.

--p!

[LeftishBrit]

43. McCarthy was definitely a Republican senator

He may have been a Dem at an earlier time; but as a senator, he was a Republican throughout his career.

And yes, he should be on the shame list. Evil destructive man.

[Jack Rabbit]

51. Where did you get that information?

Joe McCarthy was a Democrat? That's news to me.

You might want to contact the scores the sources I've used about McCarthy since I was in junior high and suggest they correct their information, since they all say otherwise.

[saltpoint]

27. There's just some EXCELLENT suggestions in this thread already.

And the thread itself is a great idea, and great fun.

I'll go with Harding, Benjamin Harrison, Dick Nixon, and Ronald Reagan. There's 4 really lousy Republicans right there.

In the museum store below the sculpture, there could be a statue of an organ grinder (Cheney) and his little monkey (Dubya) -- done in scrap metal from a slag heap someplace.

Lee Greenwood and Toby Keith on the piped-in soundtrack.

[alfredo]

29. Joe McCarthy, GW bush, Nixon, and Spiro Agnew

[AtomicKitten]

30. Nixon, Junior, Delay, and Cheney

[Yukari Yakumo]

31. My picks

Chimpy
Nixon
McCarthy
Harding - One of the most corrupt administrations prior to Chimpy.

[frogcycle]

33. I am sticking to presidents anyway

Harding/Hoover (tossup), Nixon, Reagan, Bushw

[jackbourassa]

34. I'd make them all Presidents...

The theme would be: The biggest twats to run our country...

1. George W. Bush (obviously)

2. Richard Nixon

3. Herbert Hoover

4. John Quincy Adams (not technically a Republican - was a Whig, the precursors to modern Republicans - but I say, "fuck dynasties.")

Other notable mentions...

Warren Harding...this guy was as dumb and corrupt as George W. Bush, but fortunately he died after less than two years in office. If we could only have been so lucky.

Ulyses S. Grant...sure he was a good General (well if you call rape and pillaging good generalship), but he was one TERRIBLE FUCKING PRESIDENT. He was not only stupid, like Harding and W he was corrupt as well.

What is it about Republican Presidents that make them so stupid and/or corrupt? When was the last time the Republicans elected someone who wasn't one or the other?

Theodore Roosevelt?

Abraham Lincoln?

Are there only two good Republican Presidents out of the whole dirty bunch?

[Yukari Yakumo]

45. Eisenhower? {nt}

[JohnLocke]

35. Ralph Reed, Neal Boortz, James Inhofe, Ted Stevens

[Eurobabe]

37. Bush 43, Darth Cheney, Rick Sanctimonious and KKKenneth Blackwell

edit sorry, KKKenny is eviler than Eric Cantor.

[Joe Bacon]

38. Chimperella, Scaife, Old Fart Podhoretz and Hagee

It's hard to determine which one of those four would be the biggest asshole of all time!

[SoxFan]

39. Shrub, Nixon, Harding, Agnew

[Raster]

40. Nixon, Delay, Rove and Dick Vader

[ProudDad]

41. Easy

Hoover, bush I, bush II and ray-gun

they define the modern repuke party


Aw, damn, I forgot nixon... Who ever thought I'd miss nixon...

Ok;

nixon, ray-gun, bush I, cheney with bush II as a booger in his nose (thanks to ncteechur for the booger idea)

[Uncle Joe]

44. Bush (w), Cheney, Nixon and Scalia,

these people have all in their own way, been the enemies of democracy.

[dajoki]

46. Bush jr., Cheney, Raygun, and Coulter

[Jack Rabbit]

47. Harding, Nixon, Reagan and Bush

It's interesting how each one had a crooked Attorney General (Daugherty, Mitchell, Meese and Gonzales).

[chknltl]

48. Bush and Cheney...because they are two faced liars

Ever notice how dick the DICK only talks out of the side of his mouth? I am wondering, if he talks out of the other side of his mouth when he on occasion tells the truth.

[nealmhughes]

49. Bush fils, Cheney, Rand, Kristol

[draft_mario_cuomo]

50. Bush*, Reagan, Strom Thurmond, Cheney nt
