1. When are they making a bronze of Capt. Crunch?

They have the same amount of military experience.

13. That's offensive.

Don't you dare badmouth Cap'n Crunch, he is my personal hero and the greatest living American. He may not have been much of a warrior, but he sure makes a tasty breakfast cereal. And Crunchberries are the food of the Gods. The GODS, I say!

28. Sorry but King Vitamin

had Crunch beat wayyyy before the "Captain" could even say crunchberry.
And you may think this is tinfoil but...Captain Crunch tastes remarkably similar if not EXACTLY like King Vitamin. YES, I'll just say it, the Captain is a thief! But you're right he does make a tasty breakfast cereal.

30. OMG, I'd forgotten about King Vitamin.

I was never a big fan, though. The word 'vitamin' in the name made it seem much to good for me to be any fun.

You're right about the taste, though. They did taste the same. But then so did Quisp, Quake (remember their great transcontinental race to determine which one's cereal got discontinued?) and about a dozen others. For real diabetic-coma heaven, though, you can't beat Lucky Charms (even if Lucky the Leprachaun is an illegal alien).

5. It's a bust... How appropriate.

That's kind of like a statue where they only finished the first part of it, right?

11. It's way too small.

It would have been much better if they'd built a huge, full-body sculptures like the ones of Lenin or Sadaam. Those look so much better on TV, when the enraged populace topple them over and smash them to pieces.

All you can do with this little bust of Shrub is throw it in the trash.

31. As a former Marine...

That is one of the funniest fucking things I've seen in years! Just the thought of that asshole actually having someone tell him what they really thought of him is priceless. He can't have ever had anyone criticize him ever to be so fucked up.

record. Or how he got that 2nd Lt. commission either.

46. Hmm.

The story about how Lt. Bush got out of the Guard has been covered to death. I think it's time to revisit the way he became Lt. Bush in the first place.

and what's he doing with his hand back there?

patting himself on the back for successful genocide?

Hitler will fade away as the most evil man in recent history when the truth comes out about Bush 1 and 2's genocide in the Middle East

And the USA will wear the scars for centuries to come

19. Does he think this is funny?

"Charles caught me before my hair went gray," Bush said.

Listen to Sen Kerry's reaction to bush*'s TANG statue about four minutes in. Or listen to the whole thing, it's a great interview.

21. Statue to an AWOL turd. Ask him about James R Bath.

Bath and Bush got grounded together. Bath went on to become the USA business agent for the bin Mahfouz (banking) clan and the bin Laden (construction) clan. As part of his work, Bath sunk Saudi petrodollars into Junior's business failures.

39. I'd like them to put one in public...

so we could pull it down a la Saddam, only this time the participants wouldn't be paid to do it!

And sure, it's a bust, but then so is he.

41. There's no way that thing can ever be displayed

unguarded in a public place. It is a malicious mischief opportunity just waiting to happen. After it gets defaced, it will be stuck away in a closet and forgotten.

Just like Houston Intercontinental and Washington National.
