If you followed the same doctrine as the Bush Administration, how long would you last?
Here are some ways you can employ the Bush Agenda at home:

"I'm not 100% sure the family in the house across the street wants to rob me, but I better break in their house just in case!"

"What? I don't have to turn over the evidence! I claim executive privilege!"

"I don't deal drugs! I did an internal investigation of me and I found no evidence of wrongdoing!"

So, if you followed the ideas of the Bush Administration, how long do you think you would last before you thrown in prison, a padded room, or shot by someone in self-defense?

3. there is a perception that my car was going 115 miles per hour
Edited on Sat Jul-14-07 12:56 PM by MindPilot
but that's just not the case.

The kids from down the street graffitied my garage door so I set fire to the 7-11 because they had yellow cake mix.

Sure I haven't paid my rent for six years and my family is starving, but look I broke into a house on the next block, shot the owner, and painted the bathroom. Why don't you notice the good things I've accomplished?

4. I like to play Civilization and similar computer games
sometimes when it gets near the end of the game and it's obvious that I will win - I'll start playing it like bush would

I'll be at a point in the game where I control the vast majority of territory, resources, have brazillions of money, a populace that is happy and hard working...

then I'll start cutting taxes like crazy, start wars, borrow money to fund the wars, spit on allies and ignore the populace when they complain....

in a matter of a hour or so, I've destroyed everything I spent days building...

5. If I was in government, 8 years.
Elsewhere, I'd have gotten everything repo'ed by now, and been arrested for murder.
