Can Someone Explain The Nickname "Whistle-***?"
I have seen the moniker "Whistle-Ass thrown about these forums to describe Bush...and, while I laughed my butt off when I first saw it...I'm intensely curious where this nickname originated and what it signifies? Is it an inside DU'er joke that I missed or what?

I would really like to openly begin referring to W as Whistle-Ass, because I like it...but I also wanna be able to explain it when I get called on it.

Can someone tell me where Whistle-Ass came from, and what it signifies?

Thanks!

1. Obituary backs 'removal of Bush'

Obituary backs 'removal of Bush'
Woman 'thought he was a liar'
By Lee Sensenbrenner
August 21, 2003

When Sally Baron's family wrote her obituary, they described a northern Wisconsin woman who raised six children and took care of her husband after he was crushed in a mining accident.

She had moved to Stoughton seven years ago to be closer to her children and was 71 when she died Monday after struggling to recuperate from heart surgery. Her family had come to the question of what might be a fitting tribute to her.

"My uncle asked if there was a cause," her youngest son, Pete Baron, said.

Almost in unison, what her children decided to include in the obituary was this: "Memorials in her honor can be made to any organization working for the removal of President Bush."

"She thought he was a liar," Baron's daughter, Maureen Bettilyon, said. "I think his personality, just standing there with that smirk on his face, and acting like he's this holy Christian, that's what really got her."

<...>

"She'd always watch CNN, C-SPAN, and you know, she'd just swear at the TV and say 'Oh, Bush, he's such a whistle ass!' She'd just get so mad," Bettilyon said.

<...>
