Calling GWB a turnip is an insult to turnips!
They can be very intelligent at times, you know. Can't just throw them into boiling water, they'll resist with their last ounce of strength. Have to wait 'til they're sleeping, maybe sing a song for them.
Who is the VP? Does he, like, advise the president and keep tabs on him, or something? "Who watches the watchers" and all that?

it's a beautiful place. My old army pal had his honeymoon in Baghdad last fall... It's an obsession of his: see the world that isn't going to be around for much longer. He's done North Korea, too - twice, to get both the Kim Sr and Kim Jr versions.
Did people raise a ruckus about "excessive spirituality" when Carter was in office? How many cared about Reagan's astrology addiction? How much does the person of the US President really matter?

Depends upon whether the person of the president is looking to do terminal battle w/ the persons of the rest of the world.

Can't matter that much. They let Bubba bombard Kosovo and launch all those cruise missiles during Operation Stained Dress.

I can't say that my access to the internet was quite the same back then, so I don't know.
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Well, you see, the one thing Clinton did that Farquad and his ilk will never forgive him for is - he got away with it! Everything! They tried to impeach him (the same fate that sent their beloved Nixon running for the hills in a panic) and failed! Then there was the afore-mentioned bombing etc., which they couldn't even enjoy because he'd ordered it and it was by inference bad. And now he gets to walk the streets in no more danger than any other ex-President, when they would have liked to see him lynched. It's just so unfair, it makes you want to ignore the whole democratic process to make sure it never happens again. Oh, wait. . .
