Presidential Swagger

[freesqueeze]

I think some of the ire directed at Bush is because of the way he often walks around looking as if he's lugging two invisible watermelons. Any time he feels puffed up and particularly proud, like when he gets another big contract for his financial backers, he tends to walk around holding his arms out to his side as it they can't go any further down because he is so heavily muscled.

Hey Junior, cut me a slice of that melon and take a load off.

1. How about presidential stagger?

maybe all that booze did a little number on his sense of balance?

I think it's more that he is such a little man, such an inconsequential man, that he just doesn't know what to do with himself. He's like a backwoods hillbilly playing with the big boys, and he just doesn't fit in. Intelligence-wise, that is.

2. Well, he walks like a weight-lifter, and that's appropriate

since that's what he spends all his time doing while his cronies run things.

3. I had assumed his kevlar underwear was a little too stiff.

4. I avoid watching such vulgarity, but when I do see it

I avoid watching such vulgarity, but when I do see it, I am reminded of that hands-on-hips swagger "Il Duce" (Mussolini) did in newsreels from World War II.
