I love lightning. It makes me feel so warm and toasty.

I hate George W. Bush.

I'll say it again.

I HATE GEORGE W. BUSH!!

Yes, HATE.

I think his policies rank him among the worst presidents in U.S. history.

And, while I'm tempted to leave it at that, the truth is that I hate him for less substantive reasons, too.

I hate the inequitable way he has come to his economic and political achievements and his utter lack of humility (disguised behind transparently false modesty) at having done so. His favorite answer to the question of nepotism--"I inherited half my father's friends and all his enemies"--conveys the laughable implication that his birth bestowed more disadvantage than advantage. He reminds me of a certain type I knew in high school--the kid who was given a fancy sports car for his sixteenth birthday and believed that he had somehow earned it.

I hate the way he walks--shoulders flexed, elbows splayed out from his sides like a teenage boy feigning machismo.

I hate the way he talks--blustery self-assurance masked by a pseudo-populist twang.

I even hate the things that everybody seems to like about him. I hate his lame nickname-bestowing-- a way to establish one's social superiority beneath a veneer of chumminess (does anybody give their boss a nickname without his consent?). And, while most people who meet Bush claim to like him, I suspect that, if I got to know him personally, I would hate him even more.

Yes, I HATE GEORGE W. BUSH!

Whew...how long you been holdin' that one in? Sounds like you've got personal issues and it's not with President Bush. Be sure to get back to us on how that hate thing works out for you...

[RushCrush]

Because DU mods are too dumb to catch me, even though I'm right under their noses!!!

I've been at DU since the beginning and they have no idea. I love it.

I hate the way he walks--shoulders flexed, elbows splayed out from his sides like a teenage boy feigning machismo.

You are in such denial. Admit it. You wake up every night in a puddle of your own sweat, dreaming about the President. You loathe yourself for it.

And yet you can't stop...

Clinton seems to be loving himself a whole lot of George lately.

I heard French people hate him for his F-250 Super Duty 4WD when he wears his ranch hat. It could turn those little cars over there into crushed beer cans.

I also heard French women are not used to men that say they are not going farther than right here.
