1. Dallas
When he leaves office, he'll drop the Crawford charade and will live in an expensive condo in Dallas.

4. I was referring to his week-end jaunts to Crawford and his upcoming
August vacation. He said something at his press conference today about how we should all save energy by turning our air conditioners down when we leave the house.

13. I said 'down,' but I wonder: he might mistakenly turn it up thinking that will 'crank up the AC.'
As to going to a condo in Dallas, then where will he clear brush?

More importantly, how would he get away from those who would be constantly picketing him, calling for his prosecution for war crimes?

Maybe he should look into a gated community: Leavenworth might be just the place. ;-)

5. Other. "Off"
Anyone with his money can build a home that doesn't need AC.

Bananas are grown indoors in the dead of winter at RMI, the Rocky Mountain Institute, in Colorado.

6. That may be what he should do, but the poll is asking what you think he
actually does.


When home air conditioning first became popular, a lot of people used to running furnaces made the mistake of turning their A/C to 60 degrees when they left the house when they should have set it at 90.

10. And I answered, "OFF". Then made a suggestion.
The answer, "OFF" stands. George Bush should suffer for his betrayal of us on energy policies.

7. When the fake cowboy goes to his fake ranch you mean?
He'll sell the place because he doesn't need it anymore to show that he's the guy you want to have a beer with.

Maybe John Sidney McCain III can add it to his seven other estates?

11. You took my answer! Bush is no more a Texan than
Thurston J. Howell, III.

8. Neither.
He won't be going to Crawford. He's going to run to Paraguay.
