Would you acknowledge a TRULY GREAT deed...if it came from George Bush?

OK, let's say he has an epiphany. IT HAPPENS.

People have heart attacks and shit and they RE-EVALUATE THEIR LIVES.

Sometimes it lasts. Sometimes it doesn't.

After September 11, when Bush stood on Ground Zero and called out to the rescue worker who handed him the bullhorn "Where are you going?" and the guy walked back and Bush put his arm around him, SOME...maybe not ALL...people CHANGED THEIR OPINION ABOUT GEORGE W. BUSH. They stopped calling him an IDIOT and started calling him THE PRESIDENT.

People were FRIGHTENED. The moment DID NOT LAST. Currently, 56% of the people asked in our country (depending on which polls you believe) say he IS NOT DOING A GOOD JOB.

But if he did...if he did something so NOTEWORTHY, so HUMBLE, so GOOD, so RIGHT, so OPPOSITE of the man he is TODAY...and, over time, IT LASTED...ALL TRACES of the man WE KNOW went away and STAYED away...would you acknowledge it? Or would you just keep calling him "Chimp" and "Smirk" and "Shrub?"

Now THAT would be a noble, selfless gesture I would acknowledge.

Does the President even have the power to fire the VEEP. First he would have to provide evidence of the VEEP's criminal behaviour, which should be fairly easy.

the damage done to the economy for generations to come?

It would be an admission of guilt. It'd probably humble a lot of people on the right and, boy, wouldn't that be satisfying!

I would start to think about it.

Everyone occasionally does something right, or positive, even Mr.bush. I would acknowledge the good thing, but still call him a (insert negative term here) because it would NOT override all the bad things he is responsible for. Congratulations Mr.bush, you did "X". However, you are still a lying cheating piece or shit and you and your minions still need to go to hell.

If he did something good and beneficial for America, it would be for PR or it would be purely accidental.

think Bush will even try. Not even a lil' bit.

every now and then. So I guess I could acknowledge a single good deed. It still wouldn't make up for all the bad ones though. Personally I don't think he is capable of changing his ways, so it is a bit of a moot point. However if he leaves office and pulls a Jimmy Carter I'd still call him a lying sack of shit but at least he's trying to atone for his sins

PLUS:

1). Karen Hughes ghost write another "autobiography," this one about his "legacy."

2). Speaking tours. Very, very lucrative speaking engagements at universities and private companies (many of the ones who funded him, I'll bet)

3). The "George W. Bush Presidential Library"

4). It's a known fact that Laura hates Crawford...she wants a nice, upscale, uptown mansion in the city. The Crawford Ranch will become an "historical landmark" (as in "tax exempt") and will then become a cash cow for The Bush Twins and THEIR kids.

5). Halliburton owes him SOMETHING for keeping the cash flowing, don't they?

...but I don't see George W. Bush building houses for the homeless. I see George W. Bush building monuments to George W. Bush.

It's all very Christian of him, don't you think?

All he has to do is switch parties, fire the entire Executive branch, get every conservative Republican federal & Supreme Court judge to resign - then replace them with liberal Americans. Then apologize to the nation & the world. Then resign, turn the country over to the people he stole the election from, then withdraw from public life. He should use his wealth to fund progressive candidates & media.

God wil, but I won't.

God does, but I don't.

And that's the difference, between God and me.



If I have the opportunity to quote Lyle Lovett, I will.

enough to change in any meaningful or long lasting way. Everything that is said and done by this family is for political an/or financial gain and nothing less. It is measured for greatest political effect. They have their eye on the prize (lasting Republican rule well after this guy leaves the White House) and will do anything to see that it happens.

I thought Clinton was slick and political but Bush and the pugs have him beat by a longshot! Bush is as hollow as they come.

but at least he got some things right. Sure he is no FDR, but I yearn for the days that Clinton was captain of this ship

because technically, I think that everyone can change and if they do so, should be given a second chance. However, I also believe that to fully redeem yourself, your good actions need to at least somewhat balance out the bad. Therefore, I stress the word "technically" because it would take SO MANY good deeds, that frankly, there are not enough hours in the amount of days he has left on this planet to do enough good deeds to even begin to redeem himself. So, I guess...really my answer is that he can rot in hell for all I care. :)

underhanded, sneaky, devious ulterior motive. I could never trust anything he might do, no matter how good it seems.
