How do you react when you see Bush on the cover of newspapers?
I can't stand looking at him or even seeing his name in a headline on a magazine or newspaper.

How do you react when you see his face or his name in print? I can't stand to listen to his voice either :puke:

4. Yep
I hate the smug look on his face :puke: I hate seeing his name in print and thats the reason that I had to change my DU name. I don't like hating anyone but * brings out the hate in anyone.

7. The hate part is really worrying me.
I'm not an angry person and I can't ever recall feeling this way about a person before.

29. Come sit in with me in a Research class...
You'll be hating my teacher immediately. SHe's not as bad as Bush, but she's nasty in a whole different way.

2. I have a very negative reaction. I often physically shudder.
And I can't help myself from mouthing some kind of anti-ShitHeadWarCriminal sentiment.

5. If you had
* in your DU name would you have changed it?

I asked Skinner if i could change it to onedownonetogo but that didn't happen. :grr:

The TV in the student lounge at my College was on when I went in to get a cup of coffee this morning and * was on. When I heard his voice with the smug fake southern drawl I felt like breaking down.

How are we all going to deal with * over the next 4 years. :shrug:

3. After turning violently away...
my husband and I always say "murderer," because thet's what he is. A damned murderer of innocent Iraqi children, mothers, babies, the elderly, fathers, the disabled so he and his Regime could cash in on their oil... that and his Daddy Complex.

9. I shudder as well
It's really too bad it's come to this but it has. I NEVER thought i'd hate a president this much. I wish my hatred was over some baseless thing like a Oval Office blow job, but it's much much more.

15. I walk away quickly so as to conceal my nausea and hatred.
I will not look at him. Today I glanced at a friends paper in my car, and reacted by shouting F-k Bush in a parking lot next to a Christan store. And then I said to the friend I was with that my next stop would be the Xtian store to let them know what I think of them. I didn't do it because I didn't want her to get in trouble through my actions. I told her I would wait for another day when I was alone! I have never felt such obsessive hatred for anyone before. It cannot be healthy, but there it is!

and curse him.

I mean, a real curse. As in, "may he choke on a pretzel."
And see?
That one worked.
I just gotta remember to add the part where the Secret Service guys aren't around, his dog doesn't bark, and Laura is out smoking in the boys' room.

...was there something I missed?

I figured he was probably drunk and choking on a pretzel.

30. Funny you should ask
I spit on his picture and tear a hole in the paper, leaving page 2 ruined. But it's worth it to avoid carrying his ugly ass mug into my house. If he's on the cover of magazine - the whole front page goes into the trash bin before I go in.

I refues to have him on my television, too. Can't stand to see him - can't stand to hear him.

46. That's how my late father got through 8 years of Reagan.
And it's how I'll get through the same with Junior. A black ballpoint, or else the cherry of my cigarette -- I just burn a hole in the middle of his forehead, then toss the paper on the recycling pile.

I know, I know -- I should quit. I probably will, but it'll be a while -- I'm still enjoying defacing de face. Of course, our local endorsed Kerry, so the Shrub pics usually aren't the most flattering -- we've got that much going for us.

Hitler never worn glasses but he puts glasses on the POS. He draws roaches and bugs in the background :shrug: I have no idea why he puts the bugs in but if it makes him feel better then that's alright with me.

53. Submit a typed note to the Dean's office
Tell them that they need to remove the POS picture from the wall or you will contact the board of education in NY and file a complaint and lawsuit against them. Make your note anonymous so that they don't know who you are.

You don't have to take that kind of abuse :hug:

and even worse...it's my guidence counselor! Yuck! He also has that fucking Electoral Vote-By-Country Map, and today he put up a stupid anti-Michael Moore cartoon.

I was thinking about dropping a note with the Dean. Maybe he'll just stroll in and see what's up.
