[merh]

3. Is the secret service there watching him?

As them to take him back to the white house.

[rzemanfl]

10. Don't think this shrub would grow that far North. n/t

[AlCzervik]

burn it like the heretic it is.

[Just Me]

4. Spraying poison all around it,...will NOT uproot it.

Get help and PULL, PULL, PULL,...together!!!

5. Put a lawn elephant next to it

Your Democratic neighbors will surely get it.

6. Smother it with pretzels

although blowtorches can be entertaining

13. I was thinking Round-up (trademark thingie). n/t

9. Send the shrub to

I won't say what I want to say because I want to use the word hell.

[rzemanfl]

19. Some goofball wanted me to send it to Washington D.C., like it

would grow there.

12. Vote it out

Make sure it doesn't steal your vote.

[rzemanfl]

15. Oh hell, this isn't LawnandGarden.com, sorry. n/t

[BrklynLiberal]

14. Set it on fire....and see if it talks to you.

[rzemanfl]

16. Do I need to get some stone tablets first? n/t

17. is it sickly or is it healthy and you don't like it

if's it's healthy, ask your neighbors if they want it, a lot of people jump at the chance to have a healthy mature plant and they will do all the work of removal, or one of your local landscapers might be interested, they charge more for mature plants or someone who's just move in down the block and has a yard w/o plants.

22. I was just flying along under the radar and I ran into a flock of

horticulturists. Fifty-one percent of people might want a shrub like this, if you can believe that number. I wouldn't wish this shrub on anyone.

[MissWaverly]

25. then go for it, or you can sell it on e-bay, indicate must dig up

especially if the plant has taken deep roots near your oil line.

[ultraist]

18. Cut it down as far as you can...

keep it cut, because plants cannot survive without leaves. After it dies and the root ball dries up, you can dig it out.

I think you can also buy stuff that helps the roots disinegrate faster, at Lowes.

[rzemanfl]

24. Definitely not Home Depot, as I will no longer shop there since

they put "Minister of Disinformation" Ridge on their Board of Directors. I have been cutting this shrub down for four years but it really seems to thrive on being kept in the dark and won't go away.

[Nobody]

20. Is it named George? n/t

[benddem]

21. Round up won't work

there is a brush killer...don't know the name but it says on the label that it will kill blackberries and other noxious shrubs. How big is the root? Or is it one of those spreading things?

[rzemanfl]

23. Thanks. I will look for that stuff. n/t

[rzemanfl]

26. Spreading all over the place. n/t

[CottonBear]

27. Hook a tow chain to it and pull it up w/ a truck.

Of course, then you'll have a big hole to deal with.
