I don't care how much of the Bill of Rights he's trashed,
I don't care if he engaged in insider trading at Harken,
I don't care that he's wholly in the pocket of corporate interests,
I don't care if he sorted coke,
        or drove while under the influence
        or was arrested for it,
I don't care that he didn't answer any questions about the above,
I don't care that he's an imperialist hegemon,
I don't care that he's pursuing a convenient vendetta
   while simultaneously ignoring an actual diplomatic crisis,
I don't care that he's using inconclusive data to fabricate a
   link between two philsophically opposed Arab groups
I don't care that, in so doing, he's sending the tacit message that
   "All Arabs are the same," which is distressingly racist,
I don't care that Karl Rove operates him like a ventriloquist's dummy,
I don't care that the press corp treats him very gently despite the
   savage zeal with which the scoured the previous (ie, most recently
   elected) President's personal life to bolster false claims of perjury
   and criminal misconduct,
I don't care that he ignores the public's opinion in all things
        including the environment
        and including corporate accountability
        and including the economy
        and including the 2000 election.
I don't even care that he's cementing the international perception of the
United States as a nation of war-crazy, trigger-happy, diplomatically
   primitive cowboys.

What really bothers me is that he *STILL* says "nukuler."

     Dave!

It's not "W" it's "dubya"; as in "dubya-dubya-3". Scott A (22 years ago, 7-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
