With the usual gang of shameless Republican hypocrites being joined by the usual gang of spineless Democratic wimps in scolding Rep. Pete Stark for suggesting that George W. Bush's response to the deaths of U.S. troops is "amusement," might I suggest that maybe Stark doesn't really owe anyone an apology?


1) What animal did a pre-teen George W. Bush like to blow up with firecrackers?

a) Rabbit.
b) Frog.
c) Hamster.

2) What was the subject of then-Yale party boy George W. Bush's first nationally quoted statement?

a) A complaint about the smell of hippies.
b) An apology for his arrest for stealing a Christmas wreath from a New Haven hotel.
c) A defense of his frat's practice of branding pledges with hot wire hangers in which he pooh-poohed the resulting "insignificant" wound as "only a cigarette burn" that leaves "no scarring mark, physically or mentally."

3) What made George W. Bush chuckle during a debate with Al Gore?
a) He suddenly remembered something funny from an Austin Powers movie.
b) Gore couldn't stop saying "lockbox."
c) The moderator brought up an incident in which the lawyer for a Texas death row inmate slept through much of his client's trial.

4) What put a big smile on George W. Bush's face during a debate with Al Gore?

a) Saying of the three Texans who killed a black man by dragging him behind their truck, "Guess what's going to happen to them! They're going to be put to death!"
b) Saying, "I'm a uniter, not a divider."
c) Memories of cursing out a reporter who'd written something innocuous that he'd taken great offense at in front of the man's wife and four-year-old son, drunkenly snarling, "You no-good fucking son-of-a-bitch, I will never fucking forget what you wrote!"

1. Kick for the coffee break crowd :)

2. I fully believe he likes getting soldiers killed

Especially since his own cowardice is now common knowledge. To be jealous of a thing is to either want to possess it (honor, which he can't do) or destroy it. The evidence to that is ample.

3. While this "quiz" wasn't a surprise of facts, the pattern is disturbing

to see it all lumped together. :cry:

4. Frankly, I don't think he* likes it, I think it doesn't matter to him

as if they were things. to me that is worse.

If he liked it, it would mean he* acknowledged them as being fellow humans.
