<snip>

Q Let me get a couple before-I-get-thrown-out questions. The question I get all the time after covering you is, what's he going to do when he leaves the White House?

THE PRESIDENT: Ask me after I finish sprinting to the finish line…I’ll be in Texas.

Q You will?

THE PRESIDENT: Absolutely.

Q Making money? Is there a goal of making money?…Charity? (Corporate) Boards?

THE PRESIDENT: I don't know yet. I really haven't spent that much time thinking about it.

1. Maybe that's what he named his place in Paraguay? n/t

[Brigid]

2. Let him go back to Texas.

And stay there.

[Justyce]

5. No thanks, we don't want him...

Perhaps Connecticut will let him come back?

[Taverner]

34. San Quentin might be nice :)

[Gruenemann]

74. NO! We already have enough assholes.

The Hague is where he belongs.

[liberal N proud]

3. I am sure we can accommodate him in a federal prison located in Texas

[Ilsa]

13. There's a small one located in the brush of McMullen County.

Lots of heat and rattlesnakes to keep him company.

[npincus]

4. he'll be a pariah, shunned by decent society.

Let's agree to boycott companies who hire the Monkey to serve on their Board of Directors.

[tjwash]

12. Why boycott them? Any company he's on the board on is doomed...

nt

[wtmusic]

6. He'll be in the Hague

if people in this country develop any sense of justice.

[Brigid]

7. Me Likey.

Me likey that idea very much. :evilgrin:

[AllegroRondo]

8. " I really haven't spent that much time thinking "

Yes, we know.

[bdamomma]

15. that is the problem he just doesn't think about anything

that is why cheney is running the show.

[kiteinthewind]

44. LOL! Thinking is not his strong suit! nt

:rofl:

[Cabcere]

68. Took the words right out of my mouth.

:hi:

[stirlingsliver]

9. Wrong-O, Georgie!

Wrong-O, Georgie!

You'll be in jail.

I understand they have a maximum security facility in Guantanamo.

It's for people who are threats to America's freedom.

You know, people like YOU!

[Decruiter]

47. To illustrate:

[Cabcere]

70. Good grief...

In the "War Criminal" one, he looks like he's just pooped his diaper. What an overgrown baby he is! :crazy: Great pics, btw...hopefully they'll be reality soon enough. *crosses fingers*

[sinkingfeeling]

10. My deepest sympathy to Texans. Another state, I shall never enter again.

[wakeme2008]

11. with his 103 Secret Service Agents

:grr:

[bdamomma]

14. he makes want to do this

:puke:

he hasn't thought about it, cuz, he is not going anywhere ?????

[ixion]

16. if there were any justice at all in the world....

he would be spending his time in the Hague.

[NoPasaran]

17. If I owned Hell and Texas

"If I owned Hell and Texas I'd live in Hell and lease out Texas."---General Phil Sheridan

I'm in Texas, so I can say it!

[Straight Shooter]

18. I would love to see bush on the corporate boards of Exxon and Halliburton.

His very presence is the kiss of death for financial stability.

I just want him the f*ck out of the United States, forever. And he can take his damned family with him.

[MilesColtrane]

19. Q: "What will you do after you retire from public life Mr. President?"

A: " I'll be all aroun' in the dark.
I'll be ever'where--wherever you look.
Wherever there's a fight so oil can be took 'n brown people killed, I'll be there.
Wherever there's a cop beatin' up a
guy, I'll be there. I'll be in the
way necons yell when they're mad--an'
I'll be in the way military contractors laugh when
they're hungry an' they know a war's on. An' when our people loot the public treasury, an' live in the
houses they've stolen , why, I'll be there
too."

...with apologies to Steinbeck.

[Ilsa]

49. One of my dad's favorite movies.

I love your adaptation.

[spanone]

20. He doesn't spend much time thinking about anything.

[Ino]

21. He's waiting to see what Daddy has lined up for him next (n/t)

[Fleshdancer]

22. Suddenly building a fence around the TX border doesn't sound too bad

can we get the fence around the entire border? Please?

[Nickster]

26. LoL, that's exactly what I proposed at the Memorial Day bbq I was at! Hee Hee

[Ilsa]

50. Don't let the SOB past the Red River! nt

[Fleshdancer]

76. screw the alamo...REMEMBER THE RED RIVER!!!

:rofl:

That's going to be my new battlecry

[rhiannon55]

23. "...sprinting to the finish line..."

ROFLMAO! :rofl:

The man can't walk and eat a pretzel at the same time.

[Cabcere]

66. He can't even

watch TV and eat a pretzel at the same time! :P :hi:

[bdamomma]

71. sprinting to the finish line, and falling flat on his face, or better

yet, have the police waiting for him there. won't he be a private citizen then? this is so far away, anything can happen.

[HCE SuiGeneris]

24. I hope the Chupacabras makes a special trip across the border

to visit him in the night down there.

[Cabcere]

67. "My Pet Goatsucker" (n/t)

[RestoreGore]

25. He Should Be In The HAGUE n/t

[LibDemAlways]

27. Chimp hasn't yet thought through his

future plans because there's nothing to think about. Other than the photo ops, he'll be doing what he does now - playing video games and drinking himself under the table.

[DemoTex]

28. Bu$h has bought a lot on Euclid Ave. in Highland Park (Dallas)

Word is that it is the lot where the Romano house (Macaroni Grill, etc) used to stand. Ironically, that is directly across the street from Dick Cheney's old swankienda (where my dear, late Sirius used to love to poop). Word too is that the Bu$hes paid over $10-million for the lot.

[Lisa]

29. plenty of time before Jan 2009 to train a new "pooper in chief" (n/t)

[DemoTex]

35. Yeah, but thank goodness I am out of Texas.

Greenville, SC.

[Lisa]

40. you can always delegate it (in the spirit of the Bush administration ...)

There are bound to be willing DUers in Dallas -- maybe even some within a few minutes of the aforementioned property. (Personally I don't like going for walks in the summer heat, but smart dogs are capable of going out on their own and doing their business in a particular site, and coming home again ...)

[txindy]

55. He'll ditch Crawford ASAP and Houston is out because Poppy lives there.

So, it was always Dallas that would eventually have the horror...I mean, the honor :eyes: of having Junior living there yet again.

[Dukkha]

30. so basically very little will change for him

He spent so much time there the last 6 years the WH must have been like a vacation home to him. Lazy bastard.

[SpiralHawk]

31. He's turning his back on his Connecticut homeland?

You mean Commander AWOL is going to continue to pretend he's a Texan?

How lame for a Connectict preppy cheerleader.

[Orsino]

32. He's never had to.

Little Georgie will always be taken care of.

[WI_DEM]

33. Yeah, I'm sure that's the question about Bush that reporter gets "all the time"

If it were my way his post presidential years would be in spent in prison.

[jpgray]

36. Considering he only bought the ranch in 99, I wouldn't be shocked if he sold it now

[lutefisk]

37. But not in Crawford, I'll bet

My guess - wealthy Bush supporters form a foundation and buy the Crawford pig farm for at least 10x what Junior paid for it, possibly turning it into a private national historical site of some kind. I can't believe Bush would have any desire to actually live there; after all, if he had ever really wanted to be a country boy he would have made at least a token attempt at it during the 50+ years before running for President.

Crawford's a stage prop for Bush and it will be used to funnel money to him just as the baseball deal was nothing more than a way to pay big money to someone who was unable to make it on his own. He might live in Texas someday, but he won't be clearing brush.

[johnaries]

38. well, there are at least 12 Federal Prisons in Texas

if I counted them correctly. So, take your pick, Commander CuckooBananas!

[undeterred]

39. They have the DEATH PENALTY in Texas

[Initech]

41. And they're not afraid to use it, either!

:evilgrin:

[Bluebear]

42. Not Crawford, though, mind you.

I suspect he will be all done with that phony set after he leaves office.

[NastyRiffraff]

43. Just stay out of Maryland!!

That's all I ask, if he does escape the Hague.

[Divine Discontent]

45. I was just telling my brother yesterday

that W will not be in office after Jan 09. I said, no he's toast mentally, he can't take it anymore, but all the dirty things they've been doing with the laws are being done b/c I think they're totally going to do the same damn thing with the election as they did in 04, and get another repub in office in a bitter close victory, when it's so obvious this country is progressive and the thought of any repub winning other than Giuliani would blow me away and prove total theft. I only think Giuliani wouldn't be a shock because of his liberal stances on a few issues. I sure hope Gore runs still, to me, that seals it for us, b/c the landslide will occur. I like Edwards but I can't see him getting a landslide, and that opens up the election process to dirty works that are leaders in Congress really need to prevent from happening then, now!

[live love laugh]

46. Yeah. He'll be "in" TX -- but living in Paraguay guarded by Blackwater. nt

[mitchum]

48. He'll continue to feed at the public trough like all of his goddamn family

[Cleita]

51. Strange feelings.

He won't leave the White House walking.

[Lisa]

52. I really hope that if that's the case ...

... it's because he loses control and binge-eats until he's so huge, bigger than President Taft, that his legs won't support his corpulent bulk. Or because he gets so lazy that he demands to be carried in a sedan chair by his press secretary and chief of staff.

I really want him to live a long time, with his mind as sharp as it will ever be, so he can see America turn its back on him and his putrid "legacy". With landmarks not only NOT being named after him, but companies like "Bush's Baked Beans" changing their name just because of the awful stigma.

[Cleita]

62. Also, it could be he will frog marched in handcuffs, instead of walking

upright out of the White House with dignity, or it could be on a guerney in a strait jacket. Either would suit me find.

[Lisa]

64. I like the strait jacket idea ...

He's such a fidgeter that he'd be a total wreck after the first five minutes. Another possibility is that he starts howling and throwing a tantrum as soon as they snap those cuffs on him, so he has to be dragged out, bawling for his dad, and clinging to every piece of furniture they pass ... future Presidents will be able to point to his fingernail gouges in the parquet flooring as a visible memento of the end of a dreadful era!

[Jack Rabbit]

53. I didn't know Texas and The Hague were the same place

Did you?

Well, Bush needs a geography lesson.

[Rex]

54. As a fellow Texan, let me say that I doubt Shithead will stay in Texas

and really hopes he doesn't. We have enough trash, don't need more.

[Madspirit]

56. Texan Here

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Lee

[marmar]

57. He should be in jail after leaving the WH in handcuffs.....

:grr:

[Norrin Radd]

58. Just what Texas needs.

More cow poop.

[Xenotime]

59. Shit...like we want him here....

<sigh>

[BlueIris]

60. Texas won't be very...comfortable for you, George. Few places will.

Good luck with that, by the way.

[Stephanie]

61. He'll spend the next 30 years in litigation. Trying to stay out of jail.

Like OJ.

[sakabatou]

63. Looks like TX will get their idiot back

[DemGa]

65. Prediction: Bush will be the lonliest ex-president n/t

[Joe Fields]

69. Yeah, Houston. He'll never see Crawford again, once he's out.

[AspenRose]

72. *sigh* I guess the old saying holds true for me....

"You can't go back home again."

*sigh*

Not as long as he's there....he's ruined the state....and I feel sorry for the rest of y'all who are still there trying to clean up his mess.

PS-Please send shipments of Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla and Wolf brand turkey chili :9 Thank you :-)

[orleans]

73. hasn't spent much time thinking about it because HE'S LYING AS USUAL! n/t

[wildhorses]

75. hello houston --

we have a problem:patriot:

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

77. "I really haven't spent that much time DRINKING about it."

"Oops. Did I say drinking? Cuz I meant thinking."

Yeah. He's the Drinker Guy. He'll be the Drinkinator down in Texas where he has all his hidey-holes for boozing it up - this private club, and that guy's estate, and so on and so forth.

There isn't that much to drink - er, think about. His plans are all lined up.
