    no, i'm not going to worry. That's what they want. I'm going to continue living my life pleasantly, worry free, and unnoticed by the frantic mob. lol, good luck space cadets.

    No, what "they" want from you, is to ignore what they are doing. Yes they want you to worry but they want to divert that worry away from the bonehead moves the USA is making.

    What they want is you to worry about terrorism, worry about your weight, worry about buying your kids that new playstation game, worry that your house isn't what it could be, worry about who will get kicked off survivor tonight, but for the love of pete, please do not worry about what the president and the USA is doing to innocent Iraqis, innocent Americans, and other innocents around the world who are just slaves to the American corporations.

    I encourage you to worry about what matters.

    i agree... the superficialities are the only ally that foolishness has. when we are able to rise above the primitive concerns that our society so successfully tells us to focus on we shall see that the nonsense that is perpetrated in our name is killing the spirit of humanity. looking into the eyes of our brother and sisters we shall see our dreams reflected; that sacrifice and confrontation are worth it...

    That is a very lovely portrait, a very good likeness, plus I think it captures the essence of Bush. Thanks, Susan. I think we all really needed to see that.

    Yes, very professional to post the leader of another nation on this site making fun of him.

    Very professional indeed. Very mature too. My 12 year old son thought it was kind of insulting to encourage this about other heads of state/government, but what could he know....

    The important thing is that we get a chuckle out of this witty humour. I am sure if we had Sue as a member of Parliament, this would go a long ways to helping Canada's trade, and economy with the US. Yes...very much so.

    Yea, thats demockery for you. Express an opinion that goes against the sheeples primer and you are immediately subject to innuendos about how you caused whatever trade barriers were erected years ago as well as comparisons to fictitious childrens behaviour. All of this coming from people too afraid to post their names (or even nicknames) with their comments. OOOH, you guys are scary. I think I'll take another ascorbic acid tab so that I can calm myself. Who says Bush won twice, as far as I know the jury is still out on whether he has won once, never mind twice.

    Keep up the good work Susan.

    Like if we were the only ones. Perhaps people ended up feeling sorry for him after so much bashing. What a mistake that was.

    So? This is a Canadian politics site. We make fun of our own leaders all the time. If you think Bush's Presidency is too weak to handle a little joke like this...

    I'd say 'kind of insulting' is mild treatment for a guy that ought to be on trial for war crimes.

    Quit whining! Ridicule of unsavory politicians has been a tactic going back centuries. For example, the American revolutionaries (now spinning in their graves, I might add, over the imperial presidency) liked to ridicule old George 3 as the Mad King. Look, Bush is an imbicile and a psychopath, so making him out like Alfred E Neumann, is a mild attack indeed.

    If you believe anyone in this country including our leaders have any control over our trade with the Americans you have been sucked in by Paul Cellucci's propaganda. I'm glad we can find something to laugh at about this murdering criminal. Maybe you need to explain to your 12 year old how it is that you can justify our country doing business as usual with this ???l ea d e r??? mass murderer? How is that you can expect us to forget that fact? He has NO credibility as a world leader. NONE. Take away his weapons and he'd just piss himself.

    I can understand Bush & Cronies all sticking together like snot, but what I can't understand are all these house niggers who immediately whine, bitch, and moan when someone pokes fun at their Massa, de Grand Wizard. So, what's in it for you, you little sell-out?

    Bingo! The man is a war criminal. he has ignored the Geneva Conventions, and the the articles of the Nuremburg Trials. He should be on trial not in the White House.
