George W. is a good, moral man. You may not agree with his opinions but he's always consistent. He doesn't lean left or right. He "stays the course"

Consistently wrong.

Of course he stays the course, that is the true persona of a "dry drunk"- stubbornness and arrogance; his psychological profile.

Sunny, you provided a nice little out-take from Katherine van Wormer's take on President Bush. I don't buy her B.S. psycho-babble.

Nope. That is my take on him. My soon to be ex brother in law is ALSO a dry drunk. Opinionated, loud and irritating.

The only inaccurate thing about what Sunny said is that Bush is a DRY drunk, although he was "dry" when he first became President.

The only politicians that hold any weight in state death penalty cases are governors as they hold the pardon in their hands, like George W. Bush as Texas's governor.
And how many of those murders occurred in Pelosi's district? Not that many. The districts of Barbara Lee, Joe Baca, Juanita Millinder McDonald, George Radanovich and Maxine Waters most likely had more murders than other California congressional districts, certainly more than Pelosi's.

Fortunately, that is simply YOUR opinion. Mine is different and that's okay. It was still America when I woke up this morning.

I don't believe most people consider President Bush loud, opinionated, and irritating. I guess to many libs he is considered irritating just by virtue of the fact he won the election. It does surprise me how the left wing is so considerate of everyones feelings except the right (ie anyone that doesn't agree with them). People stop drinking alcohol for various reasons and just because one choses to not drink (or quit drinking) in no way is proof that they ever had a problem w/alcohol. I guess name calling -dry drunk is an effective way to vent frustration?

Provide something better than not liking your brother-in-law as evidence that loud and obnoxious equals "dry drunk". I know a lot of people that are loud, obnoxious, inappropriate or any other adjective you'd like to throw in, but they aren't drinkers, now or ever before. "Loud" and "obnoxious" are common words used to described a sound, a behavior, etc. Dry drunk? C'mon. You're grasping at invisible straws...

Well said. . . I've never even heard one left-winger describe Bush as loud and obnoxious.. .

Bush = a moral example, ROTFL....someone that manipulated "evidence" to get us into the mess we are in? Someone that refused to admit that global warming exists? Someone that is squandering away the next Generations future by running up huge debts that they will still end up paying for? For what?????? Someone that is responsible for thousands and thousands of innocent iraqi women and children that have been killed, for NO reason???? He is about as immoral as you can get, in my view. What is his approval rating now, 29 %??? LOL.... he will go down in history as one of the worst presidents EVER.
