Strange stories about Bush
December 08, 2003 at 05:04 PM UTC

http://www.whitehouse.org/administration/georgew.asp did anyone else know that, "During high school at Philips Andover Academy, Bush blossomed in his role as a determinedly non-effeminate cheerleader"
No offence to male cheerleaders, but what a whoopsie.
and somewhat less surprising:
http://www.nme.com/news/106957.htm Eminem gets probed because he says bad things about the president. Will middle America burn his records like they did the Dixie Chicks?

Is there a difference? America is so confusing.

The only people that burned Dixie Chicks CDs were a couple of grandstanding yahoo DJs.
Despite all the rumors of some vast Dixie Chicks backlash by those ignorant right wing, bible-thumping Americans, the Dixie Chicks album actually sold more after their comments. Their subsequent tour sold out and their subsequent DVD sold like a jazillion copies.
Don't believe everything you read on the internet.

Less than a buzzillion but more than a shit-load.

Oh, okay thanks, but how much is a shit-load compared to a truck-load, or boat-load for that matter?
I'm not sure. That crazy metric shit always gets me confused.

Since England is such a small island, you all share the same ideals, right?

Yep, where else would he get such a dorky wave? Looks more like he should have a tiara on and be on some thanksgiving day parade float.

Anyone remember 'Root Boy Slim'? He was in some fraternity at Yale when Dubya became it's chapter president- apparently the two were arch enemies on campus
