What's your favorite way to refer to bush?
Mine is never to honour him with a capitalized initial. Same goes for cheney.

Of course there are many who use the asterisk--Inspired, I must say.

Others simply call him "the chimp-in-chief" or the like.

What else does everyone use consistently instead of "Bush"?

Just curious.

4. Always in a diminutive...
Edited on Tue Sep-21-04 11:53 PM by punpirate
... which I think "Bushie" would qualify as.

On that subject, do you notice that in Oliphant's cartoons, he seems to be getting progressively smaller? :P

On edit, I refer to him that way only when he's lying about something inconsequential. When he's lying about something of import, I try to use his correct and full name... just in case someone at the ICC is reading....

He called one of his first forays into business "Arbusto" which he incorrectly thought was spanish for bush. Turns out it really means shrub. Calling him that reminds me that he truly is a dimwit.

Until I realized his supporters had adopted that one as a term of endearment for the jerk.

On here I generally alternate between calling him Shrub and *. And an occasional Chimp or Chimpy. haha

53. GW Bush
If one is trying to make an argument with his supporters, the name-calling nonsence costs you all the credibility you might have had.

What do you think when you read an email, perhaps otherwise thoughtfully written, that refers to Hillary Clinton as "Hitlery" or Bill Clinton as "Klintoon" (yeah, I don't get that last one, either...)

You shake your head and dismiss them as partisan, hate-filled curmudgeons.

Do you want people reading this site who are undecided, but not particularly partisan, to feel that way about your words?

Unfortunately, it goes over too many people's heads (understandably) for me to use it consistently.

When I'm writing, I almost exclusively use *. When I speak it's generally "Chimpy" or "Shrub"
