2. Is this referring to some fictitious female president
or are you calling the Shrub a girl?

:)

I vote no - It makes them seem too much like a puppet.

7. Boy, you are desperate! BO's looking down his nose at her, not exactly flattering for him.
He's a snob anyway "You're likable enough, Hillary" "SNUB".

10. She's an android...
her programmers have to have some means to override the program that's running in an emergency.

Intelligent Robotics is fairly new science. She's a big improvement over the George W. Bush model. She is much smoother, and can give intelligent literate answers when asked questions. The Bush model could give a fairly good speech but was almost a total failure at answering impromptu questions. for example:


"I'm going to try to see if I can remember as much to make it sound like I'm smart on the subject." --George W. Bush, answering a question about a possible flu pandemic, Cleveland, July 10, 2007

"My job is a job to make decisions. I'm a decision -- if the job description were, what do you do -- it's decision maker." --George W. Bush, Tipp City, Ohio, April 19, 2007

"I think -- tide turning -- see, as I remember -- I was raised in the desert, but tides kind of -- it's easy to see a tide turn -- did I say those words?" --George W. Bush, asked if the tide was turning in Iraq, Washington, D.C., June 14, 2006


Of course, the Hillary model could be upgraded. Future models will probably be less shrill, more human and warmer, perhaps even slightly sexy. The laugh will probably be altered to be less of a cackle.
