TWEETY: Says Bush is "Lincolnesque"

Edited on Fri May-26-06 05:16 PM by attaturk

But what if Lincoln was "Bushesque"?

5. Presumably, Tweety means that Bush is like Lincoln insofar as...

...both men were bipedal humanoids. I can't think of any other similarities off hand.

6. I'm Sure He Meant Bush Was

worth about one Lincoln penny.
Typical thoughts are worth 2 cents.
Bush hasn't had a thought worth that much, so
I'd say One Linclon penny is about right.

BTW LOL

22. Good theory, but the Bush economy has screwed that up too

With the public panic over the GOP's utter economic incompetence, the prices of precious metals are soaring: Gold, Silver, Copper - All are up 100-300% in the last year. Copper pennies are probably worth about 3 cents each now, and obviously Bush isn't worth that much.

12. Meanwhile, in Springfield IL

the Gov has told the state that energy problems are solved. "Lincoln is spinning in his grave so fast we've hooked up a turbine-we're lighting up every county from Sangamon to Cook!"

24. George W. Bush becomes George Lincoln NotWell

He was the first Lincoln I thought of, too.

Though Rockwell, as repugnant as he was, at least had thoughts passing through his head.

17. Matthews has some sort of sexual attraction to Bush.

He's often talked about his manliness; gets all worked up when Bush throws his weight around. If I were twelve years old, I'd say "why don't you just marry him already!!" to Matthews.

28. Just finished "Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln"...

by Doris Kearns Goodwin. WHAT A BOOK!!!!!!!!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Abraham Lincoln was like Mt. Everest. "W", in comparison, is like a grain of sand...a very, very small grain of sand. THAT'S how different they are.

Tweety, IMHO, is certifiable.

30. like suspending habeas corpus ?

Edited on Fri May-26-06 10:47 PM by davepc

and his illegal detention of Peace Democrats? on top of his ignoring the Supream Court of the United States in the Ex parte Merryman case?

Well, Bush does have some things in common with Lincoln.
