That's some funny stuff there Bubba - can't rep ya yet but that is some funny stuff - even if by nature I stand with the sitting president - no matter whose colors he's wearin. That gave me a pretty good laugh!

I think it's more along the lines of the die hards who may secretly believe Bush is the idiot he's proven himself to be but to admit it would mean they would have to admit THEY put him there and that they themselves are wrong.
Or it could just be believing in the lesser of two evils as in my case.

I firmly believe things can and will be worse.

I think things are going to get worse before they get better....I just wonder if America (that's you and me) are willing to do what it takes to make things safe for our citizens. For the anti-Bushies are you willing to surrender in Iraq and pull out the troops..(the Hillary process) or are you willing to stay until the job is finished? Are you willing to support our president or ANY president doing what is necessary to stop Iran from having nukes...or can you sleep at night with them having nukes? What is your answer?

They'd rather fight tooth and nail for 2 more years and hope they can gain vindication with their next drone.
Given that your party ran Al Gore and John Kerry you really don’t have much room to be calling other folks idiots and drones.

I just call em like I see em. And what I've seen measures up to the Idiot in charge and the drones who put him there.
