Does Bush* Ever Remind You Of Frank Burns?

[arwalden]

I watched an old episode of MASH tonight (the one where they do the wounded prisoner exchange inside enemy territory and Burns brings along Margaret's .22 handgun)

A couple of times during that episode, Frank Burns just did his typical smirk and giddy delight face (along with his "I'm serious now, so stop saying that" face) --- and it was like seeing Bush*.

Frightening.

You know, they are both very alike in so many ways.

1. Yes oh god yes!

Great comparrison!

Margret kinda looks like laura too.

2. Yes, and Burns was a Hypocritical Dumbass Just Like Shrub

Good observation, Allen!

3. Burns is smarter

Although Bush does have more of a chin. :-)

I love the one where they trick him into thinking it's an air raid, and he PLOPS right into that pool of muddy water. :D

4. maybe - but Curly of the Three Stooges also comes to mind.

Nyuk, Nyuk.

5. Especially around the lips.

7. When they're comparing brave acts:

And Burns says "Oh yeah?! Well, I killed a gopher with a stick!"...

That's very much the kind of thisn Il Dubya would do to prove his bravery; torture a small, defenseless animal/nation.

6. The bastard child of Frank Burns and Colonel Flagg.

8. "You're not smart, fella, you're stupid...but you finally met your match!"

9. I knew Frank Burns. George W. Bush is NO Frank Burns.

If only he were.

10. I don't know, but Cheney reminds me of Montgomery Burns. n/t

14. A cross between Frank Burns and Homer Simpson

15. You make an excellent point, Allen! LOL!

They are both so smarmy and so clueless. I just want to wave a hand in front of Bush* to see if anybody's home. Yes, it is frightening. But that's why we have DU.:shrug:

16. No! It's an insult to Frank Burns!

My favorite M*A*S*H character, one of my favorite characters in all of TV, in fact. Bush isn't fit to clean Frank's boots!
