Hello.

My name is Zoe and I’m a recovering Bush Basher.

It’s been twenty-five minutes since my last bashing episode.

I’m not actually certain that criticizing the missing is all that bad for us, but I am addicted to Twelve Step Programs and this seems like fun to me.

Good on you!

But the real test will come when you can resist the craving to speak evil of Karl Rove.

It’s OK, he’s asleep. He won’t do anything worthy of bashing for several more hours yet.

Hello. My name is Askia. It has been twelve years eight months since my last Bush bashing.

Aside from the two political shitkickers I refer to as “Shrub” and “Florida Kudzu.” It’s been a mite more recent than that.

Hey, I’ve heard about people who produced fierce things when they farted. Come on! Don’t keep us in suspense! What was it?

This thread is like an AA meeting where everyone’s doing body shots and keg stands about fifteen minutes after it starts. 😃

'Fraid so.

My attitude is screw this recovery crap. The key is to make it look _good_. Think Dean Martin.

I’m feeling an urge to post a Bush v. Nixon thread in GD. (Who was the worse for the country?) But I would have to clean up my language and I’ve gone without bashing the spur-squatter (speaking of weapons of ass-destruction) for over than nineteen hours now and that’s a record for me.

Oh.

Well, since I have to start over, can anyone tell me what reason Bush is giving for not turning over the intelligence documents that Biden is requesting on Rasputin?

Three texan doctors are playing golf, and talking about their sucesses.

The first doctor says that he’s so good, that one of his patients had gotten his hands chopped off, and the doctor sewed them back on so well that the patient went on to become a concert pianist.

The second doctors says that’s nothin’. Why, _he_ once had a had a patient who had his arms **and** legs chopped off, but he sewed them back on so well tha the patient went on to become the world champion in kick boxing.

## The third doctor just smiles a bit and then says: “I can beat both of you, no problem. One of my patients was riding a horse across railroad tracks and he got hit by a train. All that was left was the horse’s ass and a cowboy hat. And my patient went on to become President of the United States!”

“Yeehaw! is not foreign policy.”
