No offense intended...but that drawing looks awful. I guess it is better than drawing nothing though. ;P
I also happen to like Bush.

no, lets not. what's that have to do with anything?

I'm not a big Bush fan, I prefer it shaven, or atleast tidy.
Really though, I think Bush embodies a steriotype (check the spelling on that one), a false one I might add, of the dumb, headstrong, redneck American.
I think he represents, and leads his people poorly.
I rather liked Clinton, and from what Monica said, he doesn't seem to mind Bush :D
-
Bush is a horrible president and his eyes are too close together. He has no leadership abilities, he can't even talk, he's just a puppet of pig-headed dumbasses who want to see us all under a dictatorship. I hate him.
The End.

and honestly, I wouldn't hate bushy so much if he weren't such a drag on the nation.
wait. yeah I would.
he's on his crusade to rid the world of the muslims and free the oil companies from having to deal with problems.
how about freeing the american people from having to deal with $2.00 gas? when you go to war over oil, you kinda expect the price to GO DOWN don't you?
oh, not to mention Bush running the nation into the ground in support of his war. remember, everything is pointless as long as we beat those "terrorists".
I honestly would like to know that there's gonna be a nation left to save. Our economy is languishing, giant corps are taking over, becoming our second government. The conservative platform seems to be "let's run the nation into the ground and not get re-elected so that the democrats will look bad"
This is what we get to put up with over here. We have the people, and then there's the Democrats and the Republicans, and those two groups argue while the people wonder what the fuck is happening.
What is happening? NOTHING. The Rediculans try as hard as they can to put us back in the 1930s, and whenever anybody tries to push ahead, they attack it and cut it down. The Dickmocrats pay lip service to the average guy, and then compromise with the Rediculans.
American government is really a joke because of the 2-part system. We can't get anywhere because there's not enough views, it's just two sides worrying about the other, and there's never impetus for things to happen.
Oh well... I just hope that bushy doesn't get re-elected

Did you see bush's new policy on stopping wildfires? He wants to do controlled logging to reduce the amount of trees. In order to save something you have to kill part of it seems to be his theme. He used the exact same policy to "save" Iraq.
-
we should let him be president of that forsaken place, and make it illegal for the president to be involved in oil... and make it illegal for the president to have money
-
I hate president Shrub. He is in bed with the PNAC (http://www.newamericancentury.org/statementofprinciples.htm).
It's about world domination. not just oil.
-
Politicians in general - I hate them. PNAC is evil, any orginization of that type, with those set of ideals is very dangerous.

Wildfires are a natural occurance. If you cut down more trees the forest will get hotter and there will be more fires - trees cool down the forest. You could maybe cut all oldgrowth and reduce the chance of fire some.
Selective logging is the only way to go, in my opinion.
And to reply to Jimmy: any President (or anyone) that starts a war should be shot. Or maybe blown up with big guns shooting big bombs.

controlled burning to clear away the undergrowth is what is needed. its the undergrowth that fuels the fires. the trees, especially old growth dont burn to easily on there own but add the fuel of a few feet of twiggs and brush and then the fires get hot enough to ignight the whole tree. i know these things because my sister works for the forest service in oregon, my grandfather was a forest fire fighter in california, my good friend is in pyrotechnics and another friend is a pyromaniac (now on his 2nd year of a 12 year sentence).
-
My dads in the CFA and it's not normal trees that are the problem - they burn hot but it takes a fair bit to set them off. It's fucking pine plantations that you want to stay away from...
-
thats always good advice.

Most undergrowth occurs where it's been logged or burned - that's one reason why I said what I did. Let me go check ... (tromp-tromp-tromp), pretty much just ferns under those trees. And then I just assume that old growth would burn better....
