Edited on Sat Jul-22-06 05:58 PM by KoKo01
if you were in Bush's position as "P-resident" voted in by the Supreme Court and your Brother in Florida...would you take to "Trash Talk" and swearing and chomping food in your mouth and poking flautists and talking about Canadian Press people having "Purty Faces" and "bellying up to the bar in belligerance when DC Reporters ask you "very simple questions," and talking to your fellow "World Leaders" as if they were your "Frat Room Buddies," and on and on and on.....

Is Bush doing a "GOOD THING" bringing "Common Course Language" to the People...showing he's a "Man of his Times" or would YOU pefer to have someone with better control of his "speaks and vices" running America.

Would you who swear, do drugs, pot..whatever give up YOUR RIGHTS so that our P-Resident was "MORE DIGNIFIED?"

Does it even matter these days? :shrug: As long as he keeps us SAFE!!! OR could we turn it around on the RW'ers and say he's UNDIGNIFIED...POTTY MOUTH and his "ALL HAT NO CATTLE" is MAKING US A LAUGHING STOCK TO THE WORLD?

Would this be a Dem "Talking Point" DIGNIFIED LANGUAGE?

1. No, he's not doing a good thing by acting like the standard American
who can't be bothered with manners, etiquette, or thinkin' 'bout stuff.

I don't understand the question about giving up our rights, though - why would people who swear, do drugs, pot, etc. have to give up their rights so that our president would be more dignified? :shrug:

2. Well, I can tell you, even while by myself at the computer....
I chew with my mouth closed and do NOT speak to someone, if they come into the room, until it is empty of food. My parents taught me that, as to george's parents lessons.......nuff said.

14. Where are we any safer? Crap. And the good ole boy wouldn't
even fit in my cursing circle. He's a damn phoney and phonies smell of the funk and the funk doesn't fit around here. Screw him and no I wouldn't give up shit.

8. Just where you are taking it..............Is how our President Speaks
Important? Can we give up some of our own "loose language" to have an ADULT President?

Can anyone imagine your 4 year old coming into you for a "cuddle at night" and out of his mouth comes "Fuck You ...Mom and Dad...I have Monsters under my Bed...and I want you to get the hell out of that Fucking Bed and do something to Shit/Hell about this STUFF I'm seein'. Don't you see? You supposed to be in charge of TAKING CARE OF ME...and I'm gonna SUE YOUR FUCKING ASS! Shocked Parents ASK..."Michael, where did you hear this?" and "Mickey says:...because I heard it on TV, Mommy!

9. Why would I give up anything?
I might say 'fuck' here if I feel like it, but I wouldn't say it at a PTA meeting. I might tell my husband "the dog has the shits" but if I were at a meeting of SPCA volunteers, I would say 'the dog has the runs'.

It isn't a matter of the words, or chewing with your mouth open or scratching when it itches...it's when and where you do those things.

If I know when and where those things might not be appropriate, why doesn't someone who was supposedly brought up in 'polite society'?

13. Good Points........I wouldn't say "it" at a PTA Meeting or the SPCA"...and
Edited on Sat Jul-22-06 06:50 PM by KoKo01
"I" wouldn't, either. Isn't there a "time and place" for everything...including the "language" our "P-Resident" uses? :shrug:

How they laughed at Clinton.. villified him ...yet, aside from his "private life" which was kind of gross with Monica...I never heard a "peep" about his meeting with World Dignitaries. Maybe "in Private" they all curse and act inappropriately with their female counterparts....I wonder about someone pinching Golda Meier's Bun...but we didn't hear about it.

Maybe "they all do this" but I somehow Do Not THINK SO...because I and You and Others here would know instinctively about MANNERS/Decorum.

The Bushies are WILD MEN! Throwing up on the Japanese PM was what Poppy Bush did. (BTW: I've been sick so bad..that I didn't know if I could make it to a discreet place...so don't tell me Poppy couldn't have "aimed better than the lap of the Japanese Prime Minister.") The Bushies DON'T GIVE A "SHIT" and that's why they use that word. "Shit" to them is the way their GURU CHENEY acts after he's shot off part of the face of his hunting partner...and "SHIT" and pinching Bums and doing "pre-emptive massages" is what the FRAT BOYS are ALL ABOUT..

I'd vote for better language so I don't have to explain stuff to kids about why their P-Resident pinches shoulders and makes "fun" of people. Most 4 year olds can get a grip on what he's about because 4 year olds are in their "progression" and "bathroom jokes" and "monsters" rule their lives.

Maybe Bush is just in "arrested development as a 4 year old." :shrug:

12. Maybe we need to be grateful that he hasn't
shown up to a State Dinner event in a stained wife-beater undershirt and speedos. But it seems he's getting closer to making such an appearance.

15. Remember the photo of Poppy, Babs and Poppy's "Blue Suede Sneakers"
Edited on Sat Jul-22-06 07:04 PM by KoKo01
meeting with Putin in Russia a couple of years ago? Poppy had on "electric blue" sneakers. DU'ers got into a "frenzy" (myself included) about the inappropriatness of Poppy's shoes.

A few DU'ers said he'd just had "skin cancers" removed from his face so maybe that was his problem. :eyes:

Anyway...there's nothing I would put past the Bushies for "in your face, gross shock value stuff" that would make even the most "progressive of us" shrink back in horror.

His father was a fool with little manners but better foreign policy...and that doesn't say much for what he passed on to his "Evil Spawns." Most of the five Bushies are crooks, liars and thieves. Yet most Americans don't think Bush has any other brother but Jeb..if they know that much at all..:-(

I wonder how the lone female Bush sister does "DORO" (Dorothy)" that she has managed to survive between Poppy/Vindictive Babs and the rest of the Bush Brothers in "covered up scandals for years" up to their NECKS!!!
