1. Hmmm...a four-letter word for GWB, you say?
Edited on Wed Mar-28-07 12:12 PM by Cabcere
:evilgrin:

(It's probably "prez" or something equally unsatisfying, but oh, the possibilities!) ;)

Edited to add some of my favorite possibilities:
- putz
- wimp
- hack
- twit (or substitute a different vowel, if desired)
- arse
- liar
...and many more.

3. Either Prez or something having to do with Harvard or Yale.
. . . yet the crossword clues I know of relating to Ivy leaguers wouldn't be four letters?

24. I was thinking more "Yalie" or "Eli".
How anyone can take that institution seriously when it admits a dickstick with the IQ of salad dressing, money and family connections notwithstanding, is beyond me.

And now, they can add another "President" to it's list of storied alumni.
