I always thought the nickname Shrub was clever and amusing, regardless of the political proclivities of those who coined and popularized it. I like it even better, now that the dear little Shrub has gone and gotten himself elected President, engineered us a nice tax cut, and is kicking terrorists' butts around the world. I want a button that reads "SHRUB POWER!".

I always thought it was cheap and easy.

That should have said, "Give it a break Governmentstinker!".

Thats fine, as long as you don't mind being associated with those who use the name as an insult. Although if you explain yourself as well as you did in this post every time you use it, then you should be fine.

The term "Shrub" is the sweetest revenge of all. Anne Richards is said to have remarked in early 1994: "Weeeel, I'm running against a little Shrub!". That's when she was thirty points up on Bush. The Shrub turned out to be a little too prickly for her own good.

Molly Ivins tried to do the same thing, as did Jim Hightower. Both are still in Austin with the rest of the Texas liberals. The Shrub that they loved to hate is in the White House leading a global war against terrorism.

It turns out that the Shrub won after all.

Now if some people on this board don't like the fact that I call him Shrub, perhaps they want to check out my pro-Bush, pro-Republican bona fides going back to 1998 (well, truth in advertising here, I liked McCain for a while-the whole POW thing seemed attractive. In the end, however, once McCain started to turn on the Conservatives, he lost me). So c'mon Reagan Man! Butch up! Show that I'm a Democrat! In fact, I demand that you show everyone here that I'm a DU member.

Oh, I'm sorry, you're too busy typing before you think, aren't you, bucko?

Be Seeing You,

Chris

You're full of BS. Registered for a year, and only 6 posts in the last several months, and the ones you make are personal insults to President bush?

Buh-bye, loser
