3. Poppy and Sonny boy desecrated my fair city today.

Fortunately, I was at far away from the UGA campus today so I escaped their evil aura.
I wonder if Sack o' Shit Chambliss and Johnny Boy Isakson were there too? :puke:
I'm sure the GOP/Chamber of Commerce types were besides themselves today. :puke:

5. Next to his son, he's like George Freakin' Washington
Hell, I'd prefer Richard Nixon to Commander Bunnypants. At least Nixon had SOME modicum of intelligence.

10. Actually, I kind of liked Nixon...
Edited on Fri Apr-07-06 04:59 PM by dchill
He was actually kind of a liberal (for a republican) - he was just a little too paranoid and shifty. Oh - and untrustworthy. But he was, at least, intelligent enough to be pragmatic.

* Edited to add: But I really detest anybody named Bush - Poppy, Mommy, Sonny, Jebby...

6. why am I not surprised
That somebody who sells chicken that's pumped up with antiobiotics and God knows what else and whose working condition suck in the extreme AND who does not treat chickens humanely (grows them in cages) would be yucking it up with a bush.

:puke:

Why, God, why? Why do I have to share this earth with such scum?

11. Sonny Perdue is the R-Gov of GA & a licensed veterinarian. It's true.
Edited on Fri Apr-07-06 05:30 PM by CottonBear
He has absolutely nothing to do with chicken. You may be thinking of a chicken company with a similar name. He is however, a chicken hawk. ;)

I once met Perdue when he was running for office. He asked for my vote and I told him that I never had and never would vote for a Republican. God, was that ever satisfying. ;)

7. I missed it!?
Wait?! This was today?! Damnit I would have gone and protests his ass! I'm right on campus it would have been so easy. I could have got out a big projector and been playing JFK 2 - The Bush Connection the whole time.
