8. Woah! Great minds--maybe?
I just heard someone talking about Tommy Smothers on the radio tonight and it hit me!

Cool.

Props to you for posting it first! :thumbsup:

12. hey, yes, great minds!
I only pointed out the thread because others had made good posts in it...including the guy who made a great poster.
Tommy has always been one of my favorites...since the smothers brothers comedy hour...you know, the one that was cancelled in the 60s for being too controversial? I'm 45 so I was a kid when that happened, but I remember it.

9. Thought that too!
Pointed it to my wife and she agreed bushy looks like Tommy Smothers. Only difference is it was a brilliant act for Tommy. Problem for bush is he really is dumb.

10. And they were way ahead of the curve politically.
They were speaking out publically against the war in Vietnam before anyone else, and they took a lot of heat for it.

14. I remember an even EARLIER Smother Brothers show...
Tommy played a GHOST sent back to help his brother.

11. But Dubya sounds like

Roscoe P. Coltrane on the "Dukes of Hazzard."

"Coo, coo, coo."

13. When bush's eyebrows scrunch together, I think of Columbo.

Without the sharp cognitive processes, of course.

15. Bush reminds me...
Bush reminds me of a turtle--ever notice the way he cranes his neck forward to put his head in front of his body, the kind of shakes it up and down? (Then there's the fact that he's obviously been hiding in his shell for at least 3 1/2 years. How else could he be so out of touch?)
