1. I have the uncanny ability to drip scorn and sarcasm without saying
a word

and I don't think I'd say a word

42. I call it body language
My husband doesn't have to say a word and we all know if he is mad, sad or whatever. For one thing he gets stiff, then his eyes get dark and he won't smile...that gives us a big hint.

DH says I have a way of rolling my eyes if I don't agree and it makes him think, that I think, I know more than he does. So I do it a lot.

:rofl:

We care deeply and we are passionate. The whole family knows it when we are upset about something.

2. I'd walk away
I wouldn't even try. Why beat my head against the wall? He's proven over and over that he cannot listen to someone who doesn't yes man him.

3. I'd show him my CPO coin
and tell him its long over due but time for him to step into the goatlocker for a little real life counseling, especially about how so wrong it is to desert ones teammates, no matter what the reason. Then I'd call the shore patrol and have his ass hauled off to the brig to await court martial.

8. This is wide open for an off color joke, but I will be nice
I would like to have time to write it all down. I have so many things I would like to say and ask, but I doubt he would talk to a lowly civil servant like me.

4. Honestly, I have no desire to meet him.
I had a chance to meet him, but there is nothing I want to say to the man. If I accidentally ran into him, I would just keep walking. He doesn't get any of my respect. He never earned any.

6. Remember when he told someone this?
'Who cares what you think." And that was before he had the power to make people disappear. Why bother saying anything at all. According to him, no one has the right to question him. I have a fuzzy memory of him having protesters arrested in front of the Gov. mansion in Austin while he was occupying it.

7. I can tell you what I WOULDN'T do and that's...
..."laugh politely" at those witless "jokes" he's always trying to make. He's like the boss in "The Office" and my guess is not having the usual suckup response of fake laughter from an audience would fluster the hell out of him, for starters.

9. Considering that normal human behavior would involve a handshake
I would refuse to shake his hand and most likely do what I did when I saw his motorcade in DC a couple of years ago. Turn my back on him in protest.

Hopefully cameras would be on us as this all happened.

Nothing pisses off an arrogant narcissistic bully as does being merely IGNORED. Guys like W need to be around people like Rockey Vaccarelli, the fake-FEMA-trailer-driver. Or the guy who wrote the story posted here yesterday who got to speak with Bush in the Oval Office and was practically falling all over himself heaping praise on the Chimp for his grand oratory skills and his wit, charm and intelli---intelliii---uuurppp.... :puke: sorry...I thought I could say it without ralphing. Bush's head inflates a full centimeter every time he hears his name spoken. Nothing will piss the old drunk off more than just standing there, much like he does when another world leader is boring him with an address, and gaze around the room and pretend you're bored to be there. Maybe "forget" to say goodbye or shake his hand. Or maybe I'd pretend to get all excited and ask for an autograph...from one of his staffers! LOL! That'd be rich!

14. Yep. Look at him like 'Uhh ... who are you again?' ....
... and act completely unimpressed.

Maybe shake his hand with a slight hesitation and an uncomfortable "What smells?" look on my face, then wipe my hand off right after, in plain view.

Fuckwit insecure little bully.

52. I'd have to have more respect to spit in his face.
Spitting on his shoes is, to me at least, an act of contempt that does not even dignify the target of the assault with an insult that acknowledges his stature as a man. You just smile at him, spit on his shoe, and return to smiling at him.

15. Honestly?
I would ask him Why? Not expecting an answer, but I would ask him why he let OBL go and decided to kill thousands upon thousands innocent Iraqis. Like I said I wouldn't expect an answer, but if I was alone and had ten minutes well I would at least try. After all we/I have nothing to lose we already have lost soooo much.

18. Probably get arrested
I'm sure it's illegal to bitch-slap him! I've wanted to for so long...that kind of cocksure arrogance, combined with condescencion and a patronizing sense of entitlement just makes me wildly angry. He'd walk in the door, open his mouth and say something to me, and I'd probably go stratospheric. I'd slap him and ask him just who the eff he thought he was, no one anointed him our divine ruler. That's probably about as far as I'd get before the SS would drag me off. Then they'd send me to Gitmo or some unknown holding center.

I should perhaps make it clear that I'd never physically hurt him beyond the stinging of a well-placed slap; it's not in my nature, and I'm half his size anyway.

That's why I NEVER want to be close enough to touch him. My palms are itching right now, just thinking about it.

20. I'd probably just ignore him - maybe he'd be bright enough to
know I just have scorn for him. I'd be too intimidated by what his bodyguards would do to me afterwards to really tell him off!

33. Face Time? I'd get a photo
I'd make sure with one hand I was doing the Satan signal in front of my chest, with my tounge out, and crossing the fingers in my other hand.

That'd be a keeper to frame on the wall I think.

40. I wouldn't want the preacher to know this
but i did e-mail Dick Cheney on a talk show. I asked him, "Are you going to be a Dick all your life?"

I loved doing it, but now that I know about the way they spy, I would say everything I say and everything I do plus everything I have ever said or done has been tracked by their spies.

If you aren't with the Bushites, you are the enemy, too.

As far as Bush, I still remember how he strutted in with his Mafia friends and they were going to show the rest of us how to rule.

If you don't have a conscience, it would be easy to rake in war profits but not pay your fair share of taxes, label anyone that doesn't do your will "terrorists" in other countries and kill them, then leave the debts to the future generations. If 80% of the country don't seem "real" to you, it would be easy to take care of the top 20% at the expense of the rest.

Not being a vindictive or violent person, I put it in God's hands. I seriously wouldn't want to be a Bushite or Bushite enabler come judgment day. I have a feeling there will be a lot of shock and awe in hell. At least I hope there is.

41. I doubt they really believe in God
For them it's all about themselves, and then their families and friends. They WANT to get as much as possible at the expense of other people in order to concentrate as much wealth and power as possible in their own hands.

It's worked too.

I doubt any of them are truly religious. Nobody who actually thinks about what Jesus said could honestly support any of their economic programs, and probably not their foreign policy either. Sure I can see being 'pro-life' but not just in the abortion aspect, but in the death penalty, war, welfare, etc.

As far as their spy's, I could care less. My family has been watched since prior to the Gulf War, that I know about. Perhaps earlier. I am worried, somewhat, about being dissapeared, but I still don't really believe that will happen on a wide scale and if it happens to me, or one of my family members, it better happen to all of us, because otherwise the rest of us would flee this country quicker than you can say 'orbiz.com'.

45. Without a doubt they are all religious hypocrites
But it doesn't matter if they believe or not, they are hell bound. I have never had a doubt about Heaven, but couldn't fathom Hell until the Bushites came along. Now I want there to be a Hell.
:woohoo:
A good Democratic goal would be to have our picture made with Bush and be giving him the finger in an unnoticeable sort of way. The pictures would be worth a fortune when he is tried for War Crimes. Our grandchildren would love them!

Or could they throw us in jail?

55. I'd "assault" him with ?? without stopping or waiting for his BS answers
Who would Jesus bomb?
Why won't you meet with Cindy?
Can you tell me a little bit about the Carlyle Group?
Will you open up your National Guard records?
Why won't you release the results of your annual physical (like every other President in modern history has done?)
Why haven't you demanded that your daughters serve in Iraq if it's such an imperative part of the war on Terra?
How can you sleep at night while millions of your fellow American citizens are dying from a lack of health care or insurance?
Can you please stop illegally spying on Americans?

Jayzus, there's a hundred more questions - just no room to put them all down.

Of course, it would be easier and more satisfying to practice some non-verbal communication rather than trying to speak to the turnip but since articulating that kind of thing on message boards is problematic, I'll express my rage in the approved manner.
