God what an idiot he is. I went on a rant about him in a very early post of mine.

I voted against him as soon as I could, which was this past election. What sucks is living in Alabama, where everyone is a die-hard supporter of him. I can't even watch him or read about him most of the time, because I can think of absolutely no good reason why he is where he is and why anyone would ever vote for him.

OH--and something that really irritates me--those damn "W The President" stickers on everyone's cars. My friend had an idea for one that would say "F The President", but apparently someone already beat her to it.

Heh, love these... thanks Jenny. I could get depressed reading them, but I'm purposely choosing to laugh and be amused.

I don't know anyone who actually likes him; I don't see how he got elected. I like that F the President idea.

I think the more depressing thing is that people actually voted for him. He hasn't done a damn thing for our country.

I'm sure he thinks he's your top guy. He thinks the US is the most bestest country in the world.
