I thought of Scalia and O'Conner's Idiot Bastard Son, but that's more of a description than a nickname, I think.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

To me he is The Dauphin, because he inherited the office merely by being born unto Bush, Sr.

Remembering Mark Twain, I think of Cheney as The Duke. The Duke and the Dauphin.

Bastard squatter I like. Son of a bitch I like. Former governor of Texas I like. Smirky the Wonder Chimp I like, and use in correspondence. But in speech, it's Dumbya. Sounds enough like Dubya to pass muster with the Newt-Rush clones in my office, but still conveys the essence to anyone listening closely.

she stole that from Mark Alan Stamaty (the Bob Forehead part)

In the opening scene of "Washingtoon," Mark Alan Stamaty's classic Reagan-era political comic strip, an insomniac plutocrat is impressed by a late-night infomercial host. "Anyone who can sell glow-in-the-dark coat hangers to me could probably sell supply-side economics to America," he declares. And thus, with guidance from the nation's leading charismatician, begins the career of Congressman Bob Forehead.

One of my sons came up with "America's dingleberry". For you non-farming/ranching types, a dingleberry is the piece of shit that customarily hangs beneath the anus of sheep.

that's not what it means to most people, I think

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Nincompoop

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

In Texas ranching culture, dingleberries are reference to the sheepshit that devalues a fleece of wool. For a cattleman to call someone a dingleberry evokes the old sheep/cattle wars, born to it vs bought it, etc.

RA Yates: Like many Dems around here, you're shamefully dishonest.

No one "stopped the vote count" in Florida.

What the Supreme Court stopped was an illegal re-count (the 3rd counting of votes in selected Democratic counties).

Why don't all of you cut the crap and admit that Gore wanted the votes to be re-counted (in select areas) until he got a total that he liked?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I still like "The Chimp", it fits the guy so well.

About GW's post...and I'm not a "Dem".

True (sorta), but Gore still won no matter how you wanna spin it.

The reports just keep piling up about people being denied access, dirty absentee votes, etc...

Bush is a fraud, deal with it.

Back to the Subject, given the strong ties the Republican have to the number one terrorist group, and the USA Terrorist Groups. I think I will start calling him.

Terrorist in Chief or Terrorist for Hire(I am assuming the number one enemy of the USA is running Bush, not the reverse)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Right Terrorist in Chief...another reference that makes Dubyafy fit to a "T"..errorist.

Interesting that no one has any positive nicknames. Yes, it is generally hard to earn positive nicknames, but I admit I have real trouble imagining anything even slightly like "George the Great" in the context of Dubya.

Actually, when you consider the main defense offered for Dubya's lack of other qualifications, the defense that he will simply hire the best experts in every field and listen to them, the obvious conclusion is that ANYONE could do the job. If that's how we want to run the country, we should just have a lottery and pick anyone at random to live in the big White House.

In that context, perhaps "Fortunate Son" is most accurate, after all. He did take the time to write an entire book on the topic of Dubya, and that was obviously his considered opinion. (But I haven't read the book. Topic sounds too boring.)

George W. Bush has no more a legitimate claim to the presidency than I do to the throne of Norway

Interesting thread.

My favourite nickname is Junior. I've seen it here on TT and elsewhere and it fits. It's descriptive and contemptuous enough of a descriptive nickname.

I've heard in recent weeks another one:

George the Dumber.

A good friend calls him "Squint" because of his habit of squinting.

Whatever you call him, we can't call him by the title he prefers, since he never earned that title.

His Irrelevancy, King George the Second.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Erik, Long time no posts? Good to have you back. How about the Squinting Squatter? Squinting Squirrely Squatter? Squinting, Squirrely, Scurrilous, Squatter?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Clueless Georgie?

Whatever we finally decide to call him, we need to stick to a single nickname. It needs to be a name that is short, simple, descriptive, at once dismissive and contemptuous, and one that people will know instantly who you are referring to when you use it.

Not sure what that name is, but we'll find it eventually.

"President" George W. Bush?

The So-Called President?

Junior.

It does have a certain appeal because many of us agree that Dubya really is like that, but my current belief is the most likely source is someone trying to make trouble for Tanaka-san, and she certainly does have more than the average share of people who don't like her. However, even her worst enemies would not call her stupid, and this comment would have to qualify in that category, so I just don't believe she said it. Too off topic to say more, though I'm including some comments at the end of the Tanabata (7/7) entry of The Clothes Have No Emperor Part II. But to summarize, this is probably just a rumor targeted against Tanaka-san, so I think you should just let it die.

However, I now raise the topical question:

What nickname will historians give to the Dubya era?

(And have they already decided on one for the '90s? But I can't even remember for sure if they were the 'Roaring 20s', and if so, why. Roaring against Prohibition? Roaring in comparison to the Great Depression?)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I don't really think Bush the Lesser will have an era all to himself, but if he does, I nominate Era of Lowered Expectations

Or, if God forbid he and the Republicans continue to steal elections, it might be called The Fall of American Democracy

It is too soon for any nickname for the 90s, but I nominate Decade of the Dick (inc Bobbitt's, Clinton's, viagra)

Re Roaring 20s--very exciting, broke traditions, beginning of modern pop culture--also called Jazz Age. For more details on origins/etymology, look the term up in a dictionary or do a search on the Internet.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

It will be known as the Interegnum. (sp?)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

January 2001,Bush's coronation, & the date democracy died..

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The '80's - the Underreaganum

The '90's - the Age of Lowered Trousers

The zeros [Irony, thy name is History] The New Right Dumocracy.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Nickname is still Chicken George. Now when the going gets a bit tough he is whineing about "going back to Crawford"

Never mind that he just bought that "ranch" and it is about as much a home as the White House is. If and when the day comes to move back home that home won't be Crawford.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Meanwhile, the July name for Dear Leader might be The Crawfish from Crawford.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Just learned, perhaps the true name for Dear Leader is "Supporter of Bridges."

President Clinton wanted to 'build a bridge to the 21st Century.' The NYTimes 6/28 reports the number of homeless is up by 50,000 since the inauguration of Resident Bush. Damn fine of the Foliage to find that many folks to put UNDER the Clinton Bridge. 'Cept I suspect most don't wanna live there.

Three Stooges? Heck, Bush isn't fit to spitshine any of their shoes...even Curly Joe.

My name for Bush: "This Space for Rent." I get that impression of him, armed with a vacant stare whenever I see that guy on TV.

As for his father, he reminds me eerily of the evil and withered Emperor from the Star Wars series...the guy who shot lightning out of his hands.

The question of a nickname for Dear Leader seems to be answered by 'Legion;' guy has more aliases than a telephone scam artist.

I wonder if there is another aspect to the question - name the Program. FDR had New Deal, HST the Fair Deal, JFK the New Frontier, LBJ the Great Society. Don't remember what Ike called it, RMN called it "Mine, all Mine." Ronald Reagan seemed to think of it as 'Nancy's World.' Great Leader may have called his program something, and Bill C. talked about Bridges to the 21st Century.

What is the proper name for the current Program? Is it 'The Deal from the Bottom?" The "Old Maid Deal?" "Where's W?" Help me out, we might write History here.

If this had been an actual life, would I waste it listening to <insert wingnut here>?

As a nickname for the Dubya era:

The Stupification of America.

The recent IQ article suggests his personal nickname could be "Hey, Dummy", but it actually reminds me to recommend The Mismeasure of Man by Steven J. Gould, which does an excellent job of showing why intelligence testing is in general very bogus. Then again, I could suppose some people would think that the estimate of 90 for Dubya is too high. For example, the procedure was supposed to be based on unassisted writings, which scarcely applies to Bush.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Gould's argument was that the system used to discern IQ was flawed; he never implied that dumbness did not exist. See, not only doth W have a low IQ, he hath a high DQ, Dumbness quotient. A rock has an IQ of zero but does no harm when it thinks. The Dear Leader is affirmatively dumb, an actual negative number of smarts. So although few people are indeed as dumb as a box of rocks, Geo W, who is aggressively dumb, is in fact dumber than a box of rocks.

Okay, I'm going to recycle a favorite term of mine and apply it to the Bush Part Deux (or is that Part Duh?) era:

Moronic convergence.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I have some new names for Bush Dubya.. Freedom Bane, Earth's Bane, Life's Bane, Intellect's Bane.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

His name is G. Dub, or "dubby" for short.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Every time I see his face I say, "Good God, Why?" Does that count as a nickname?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

JLRoberson - You call your god good when you see Bush's actions. To me Bush is proof that there isn't a god that intervenes in human affairs to prevent great evils.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

"The Green President" would be a great nickname for the president who ended the Clinton administrations "war on environment". Democrat policies and environmental exremists have left our forests ravaged by fire and toxic waste. We should re-name Al Gore to "toxic defender" because of his link to a certain zinc mine in TN that has been cited 8 times for toxic pollution and his support for destructive environmental policy.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The 8 cites for a Zinc Mine is well below average, and since Gore has been serving his country for 28 years I doubt he runs it day to day.

The not fighting forest fires is a late, but vital step to restoring years of damage done.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Let's not bother with ECs and CHAs.

Besides, Ohio, which is Republican-controlled, has an abysmal record on the environment and has been dragging its feet on numerous violations (I'm sorry for the folks who live there).

And Snippy the Chimp wants to pass more environmental regulation to the states, which means the Ohios of the country will have more reason to drag their feet, unless legislatures and governors bestir themselves.

Well, (a) I have no god, he's just a figure of speech, but (b)if you're begging god for a miracle in any event, like Bush being eaten struck by lightning or someone saying "Boo!" to Dick Cheney, I would imagine a little flattery couldn't hurt. ;)

But anyway, now when I see him on TV I just yell, "EVIL SPOILED EMPTY-HEADED COKEBRAINED DRUNK BASTARD!" so I guess that'll have to do.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

speaking of cheney......

During the election soap, Cheney announces he'd like to know whether Bush or Gore is the fastest runner. The two candidates decide to have a race: Gore ends first, Bush is second. A few days later, Katherine Harris says following a press conference: "Yesterday a running contest was held at the Central Park. Bush ended second, while Gore finished second-to-last.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

An older fellow in our car club forwarded this e-mail to me. What is interesting to me is that the guy is a veteran and politically pretty conservative. Clearly, Bush is losing his base as they learn more about him. To know, know, know him is to dislike, dislike, dislike him. Read all the way to the end, the message is on-topic for the thread header:

A lady bought a new Lexus, which cost a bundle. Two days later, she brought it back complaining that the radio wasn't working.

"Madam," said the sales manager, "the audio system in this car is completely automated. All you need to do is tell it what you want to listen to and you will hear exactly that!"

She drives out, somewhat amazed and a little confused. She looks at the radio and says, "Nelson." The radio responded, "Ricky or Willie?"

Soon she was speeding down the highway to the sounds of "On the Road Again." The lady was astounded. If she wanted Beethoven, that's what she got. If she wanted, Nat King Cole, she got it.

Stopped at an intersection, her light turned green and she pulled out. Off to her right, out of the corner of her eye, she saw a sports utility vehicle speeding toward her. She swerved and narrowly avoided a collision. "ASSHOLE..." she muttered. And, from the radio: "Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States."

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

That's really funny !!!!!!! LOL

I really hope this is a sign of what's to come.

A few days later, Katherine Harris says following a press conference: "Yesterday a running contest was held at the Central Park. Bush ended second, while Gore finished second-to-last.

That is not what Ms. Harris would do. She would decide that the distance Gore won by was inproperly registered or marked and thus they finished neck and neck. Then she would find that some military athletic directors wanted to take 10 feet off of Bush's race course, but didn't get there on time. Since that is not fair, she would add ten feet to Bush's position making him the winner.

Actually, I had a few possibly new thoughts on nicknames, but basically derivative from King George II. Obviously not your excellency, but...

"Our mistakency" when speaking as an American to foreigners, which these days usually means apologizing for various isolationist offenses.

"Your mistakency" when speaking to a Bushie.

"My mistakency", though not many Bushies seem liable to admit they made a mistake regarding votes they may or may not have cast when they were young and irresponsible.

His Royal Incarnation of Evil, King George the Simpleminded

Gosh, that's the third time for that one.

Kim's FFF with an extra F (Fucking fuckhead fucker fuckwad).

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

All the bus billboards are making me lean toward "Resident Evil," but I still make frequent use of "The Idiot-in-Chief," "The Moron," and of course, the ubiquitous "BASTARD!" (used primarily for the millisecond it takes to slam the remote to change the channel).

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

But calling him "bastard!" reflects on his parents. Oh. Nevermind.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

He is, as I have pointed out before, a literal son of a bitch.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Apologies to female dogs.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

It annoys me the way people keep insulting dogs, snakes, and most of all chimpanzees with these odious comparisons.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Yes, those animals show more humanity than Little Lord Fraudleroy.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I think I'll stay with my original Chinese food reference:

I saw a waitress this weekend wearing the following button:

He'll always be ex-Governor Bush to me

Needless to say, we overtipped her. When we were talking after the meal she said that she'd gotten stiffed on tips twice, but it was more than made up for by the many generous tips she'd gotten from people who liked her button since she started wearing it to work.

Another informal survey that says that the polls are wrong, wrong, wrong. Or that conservatives are (among their other sterling qualities) lousy tippers.

I saw a waitress this weekend wearing the following button:

I LIKE that. Btw, would you mind telling me where you saw here where it, just the city I mean or state.

I have a feeling around these parts one would get stiffed more, but it'd be interesting to find out.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

This was in a Bennigans, in College Park, MD (just outside DC, college town).

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Nina;

blue country. that's what i figured. damn, I want to wear something like that around these parts.

Ethelred

A pun is involved since the name originally meant, "noble counsel." A certain English king acqired the nickname, "Ethelred Unred" meaning that his counsel was misguided, and he had to flee England when it was occupied by the Danes.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Ethelred the Unready! Heh.

There's a German word that means roughly "to throw one's hands up in mute horror and in this state of paralyzing dread to realize that those you need to trust most have confirmed your darkest fears." - Stephen Colbert, Daily Show

It actually translates closer to "Ethelred the Badly-advised" - Ethelred Unraed.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Ethelred--sounds like someone who would hang out with Lucy and Rickie.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

...as a feckless sidekick.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Yes, a sidekick without feck.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

What? The feck?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

he couldn't have any less feck.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Then fire him...

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Traitor works for me.

Then fire him...

I didn't hire him. And firing is too good for him.

I'm rooting for imprisonment, along with a large portion of his administration.

Can't you just see John Ashcroft leading the sing-a-longs in the prison recreation area. Imagine Dick Cheney trying to get the latest valve work done in the prison infirmary. Rumsfeld can be the sex symbol of the cell block. And George will finally have time to work out all he wants and sleep on a regular schedule without having to worry about that awful jet lag.

Alas, that only happens in that fairy tale world where justice prevails, and where applying risk management techniques to terrorist attacks versus oil pipelines has real consequence.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

they'll never be in prison. probably the only way to get rid of them good is to deport them. A lesson we didn't learn with Nixon's thugs.

Monkey-Face

Two inspirations. First, bushorchimp.com. Then the Simpsons episode where Homer turns into a stoner taking medical marijuana. "I could walk up to the President and blow it right in his stupid monkey face and he couldn't do anything about it, HaHaHa!"

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I thought that it was "...and he couldn't do anything but groove on it!"

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

That would be funny too! I'd have to check the Simpson sites to be accurate! Either way, it was "stupid monkey face" that cracked me up for weeks. edit: I think your version is correct now that I think about it :)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

My friend the macaque emails:

I just do wish you humans would stop insulting all monkeys (including our unfortunate, unoffending cousins the chimpanzees) by your insulting comparisons. None of US voted for George Bush!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Your friend is right Kali. It's a terrible and unfair insult. Unfortunately, he does look like a chimp. We will have to get more creative but it won't be as funny.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

We will have to get more creative but it won't be as funny.

Yeah, we have to be funny, otherwise it is too damn scary.

[My father once had a collection of "funny" postcards of Adolf Hitler, collected by a relative during the pre-WWII period.]

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Absolutely it has to be funny. Names like "resident" and "traitor" are just to much of a downer. I can't even look at the guy for more than a few seconds before I change the damn channel! I can only deal with him as either an abstract concept ("what is the puppet president being told to do today") or as a joke, or else I'd go nuts.

How about "Brain-Dead Weasel"?

"Bush needs a captured crowd at a military base. On his own, he couldn't get half of what Dean draws on a weekday night." Jimmy Breslin, 8/28/03

How about "Brain-Dead Weasel"?

Probably an insult to weasels everywhere, but I'll go along with it.

Is it funny enough, though?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Certainly an insult to the brain-dead everywhere, who have the good grace to lay there peacefully and not abet criminals in looting the country.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Unfortunately, he does look like a chimp.

He looks more like the southbound end of a northbound chimp.

Presidency of the Living Dead.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I usually refer to him - when I do at all - as Half Aborted Monkey Fetus (again, apologies to all monkeys). When in conservative company I tend towards Former Governor of Texas.

Needless to say I am quite fond of President Gore for you-know-who.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I just say, with a lip curl worthy of Dick Cheney, "Bushhhhh."

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

About a week ago, the Hartford Courant printed a feature about Captain Underpants and the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants . It involved the creation of new names based on a chart designed by the Professor. It turns out that Shrub’s new name is “Goober Chickenpants.” More names

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

According to "The Hobbit Name Generator," where anybody can type in their name and find out their "hobbit name," Bush's hobbit name is Ponto Chubb-Baggins.

http://www.chriswetherell.com/hobbit/default.asp

I am not too happy with the idea that he might be related to Frodo and Bilbo.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Moxie, Frito and Dildo, perhaps?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

If he is a Hobbit, Bushie is obviously a descendant of the predatory and looting Sackville Bagginses.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

He's the spawn of Gollum.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Nah--Gollum was a pitiful creature.

The Bushies are right out of Mordor.

I loved the Hobbit name generator, too. Thanks, Kalinakka!

Interestingly, part of my Hobbit last name is "Boggy," and my name in Celtic means "bog."

Didn't Tolkien incorporate a lot of Celtic language in his books? I wonder if this site does as well.

Modern conservative Republicanism is so full of contradictions it is no longer a political philosophy. It is a religion. They just accept it on faith.

This isn't about Shrub, but did anyone else listen to "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" on NPR this morning and catch Orrin Hatch's appearance as guest? He called himself a "great athletic supporter", so from now on, I'm calling him:

Senator Jockstrap

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

And since the rumor is that Hatch is very deeply closeted, the jockstrap reference is doubly apt.

King of the burning Sand. (Thanks you Ray Stevens).

Think about it. Ahab was perfectly willing to wreck his own ship (of state) and kill all his crew (soldiers even now being deployed to Iraq) to nail Moby Dick.

That he died in the process (got turned out of office?) was not part of the plan. But we can always hope.
