Will George W Bush have to go into exile?
Pissed off Iraq War veterans might pose quite a threat to his safety.

1. All ex-presidents have someone that would like to get them--
Edited on Sat Feb-26-05 03:28 PM by candy
That's why the Secret Service is with them for the rest of their lives.

Sad,but true!

9. Bush doesn't
Following Clinton, all future presidents and Bush lose life-time protection.

24. I thought the law was changed to cap it at 10 years, including Clinton?

Gotta link?


Edit: Clinton gets it for a lifetime, Georgie for 10 years.

28. I heard it was from Bush down
But that was something my parents said a couple of years ago. They could be wrong, or maybe I misheard. No link. Sorry.

Shrub from now until the end of time?

2. That is why he will never let them leave the armed forces.
They are in until he gets them killed off.

3. No, but I expect millions of Americans to get exiled!
I fully expect the Jesusistas to impose their ReKKKonstruKKKtionist shit.

5. It won't do him any good to go into exile
He can run, but he can't hide.

6. Are you kidding? The freeptards will have his profile carved for
a coin before his filthy corpse is even cold. Exiled? They're probably already building a gold temple to the SOB somewhere.

7. I was wondering along these lines too
I mean, he is so unpopular that he cannot go to Europe without 1000 guards?

Maybe they won't be so pissed when he is out of office, but I wonder.

8. Where could he possibly go?
He is hated all around the world, I can't think of one country where he could ever safely show his face in public.
He would have to have plastic surgery and a new identity.
He better just build a serious wall all around his ranch and hide out there. What a life!
I rather be poor and able to go anywhere, than rich and hated and having to live like a prisoner for the rest of my life.

13. Where?
No one else would want him. Internal exile in, shall we say, a quiet, bleak corner of, ummm, North Dakota or Minnesota? Somewhere with lots of snow and lousy winter weather, where he could not exercise outdoors for half the year.

16. You can bet that the Bush Crime Family owns an island or two.
Someplace safely beyond the reach of International law, where Poppy and/or Bar got to write all the laws (if any). It will have every comfort and amenity known to Man, plus a good few that we've never dreamed of.

When Little George arrives, all the lizards on the rocks will rise to greet a brother!

17. Actually, if ther is such an island, that's terrific! Let them all go
live there. Take Rummy, Cheney, Perle, and the rest with him. They'd be out of our site, and they deserve each other.
