So, what do you think Chimp will do after he loses?
I imagine him falling into an angry, drunken stupor for about, oh, 20 or 30 years. He'll basically stay on his ranch and perhaps swing a golf club every now and again.

Unlike any other ex-president in modern history, I can't imagine him doing anything remotely "productive" when we kick his ass back to Crawford.

He'll spend some time on trial at the Hague,
Then open his Presidential Library there, since the documents will already be organized.

3. Go back to Crawford and excel at what he's best at
Clearing brush, riding his bike, owning a baseball team, and eventually dying of pretzel-related causes.

23. "pretzel-related causes" -- love it!
Such as: He gets drunk, gets on his bike, chokes on a pretzel, falls off, hits his head on an armadillo, and goes into a prolonged coma before finally expiring.

Grover Cleveland was the only 2-term prez to do so non-consecutively.

Won in 1884, lost the electoral vote in 1888 and won another term in 1892.

5. Do you think that January 20 2005 will be the end of the Bushes?
I think he will be on his ranch doing nothing and keeping a low profile because he will be the most hated politician in U.S. history.

'hoping that he'll be meeting with his defense lawyers.'

20. At first, Carlyle will...
... take him on, believing that it's good for business. Then, after they discover just how useless he is, they'll let him go. There will be the occasional news story about him teaching Sunday school at the neighborhood church and he will eventually drift into obscurity. Thirty years from now, the local police will find him walking around in front of the "ranch" in just his pajama tops and take him back inside, and when it hits the news, people will be asking, "Bush who?"

Truthfully, I just want him out of government, forever. He doesn't belong anywhere near a government, any government.

misguided courage, but courage nonetheless. I think he will be relieved and spend the rest of his life saying "none of it was my fault".

56. He'll lie on a gurney screaming "WMDs! Saddam! Osama!"
As the three hand-selected loyal Americans, Republican veterans all, press buttons to start the flow of lethal injection drugs into his corrupt veins, Bush will continue to insist that God told him to kill all of those people.

Or would they put him in front of a firing squad--or hang him, like they did with the Nuremberg convicts?

Y'know, you really shouldn't run afoul of the War Crimes Act. It has capital-punishment provisions.

Which will contain every cliched quote that his campaign biography did and proudly boast about how he "liberated the tons of Iraqi oil".
