I think I'm actually starting to hate the name "George"


U.S. President George W. Bush listens to Senator George Allen (R-VA) speak during the Christening ceremony of the USS George H.W.

3. Clooney is the exception!
He's the only George I like.

BTW, love the look on Commander InCompetence in that photo. He always looks so pissy these days!

7. I'm starting to hate that name too. But when I call the idiot
our Crazy King George, it makes me feel better.

He looks like he is fighting sleep in the picture.

12. bush is listening to allen?
it looks more like bush is listening to his head and the voices in them. heck! his head might even be saying, "i had too much cutty sark last night. where are my sun glasses?" or, "where in heck is the bathroom--and can i get up in the middle of a speech?" his body is there. his mind is elsewhere and he looks put out!

15. That pic needs some DU captions.
Looks like chimp is pissed that Allen turned down a threesome with him and Condi.

16. Been wondering if the name "George" is gonna go the same way...
...the name "Adolph" has for Germany, once all the bodies get dug up and skeletons come tumbling out of the closets....

Bush's face looks like he's suffering from 'itching, burning hemmorhoids' and his posture looks as though he's trying the butt-wiggle to relieve it.
All class, Il Dunce...third class, that is. :puke:

I am truly embarrassed by this clown. He has ceased to be amusing.

20. I can't stand having to call the little idiot "President"
I feel like vomitting every time I'm forced to call him that.

Think of all these wonderful Georges and be of good heart...it's BUSH as a last name I'd be leery of. If the richest, nicest, handsomest, most eligible bachelor came out of the woods bearing the last name BUSH, I'd want to run a full background/genealogy check first before DATING him!

25. Hey, don't blame the name unless it's chosen.
Most people are simply given a name by their parents. It's not their fault other people with the same name are fucking assholes.

26. Notice that all George's & their Party like to use insulting names and
nicknames and names for entire groups of people.

Jr is obsessed with nicknames.
I seem to remember his farthr coming up with some.
George the Presidential candidate is a winner.
As is Abramoff and his team?
I wonder if Suaan Ralston also uses names and nicknames.

Republicans in leadership are one classic group of juvenile and hateful creatures.
