That's President Chimp to you.

Not MY president.


Well, who is your president?

I'm currently president-less. Fortunately, I don't need to be programmed in
order to understand the world around me. Otherwise, I'd really be adrift
right now.

No, silly. I didn't hire the guy. I disagree with 99% of his policies. I
have no respect for him as a person, and my 14 year old son is a better
communicator. I attach no special symbolism or place of honor to his
position, so the only thing left are the material realities mentioned in the
previous sentence. Since those don't exist for me, Bush is vapor.

"I think he ought to receive the ultimate penalty...for what he has done to
his people," the president said. "I mean, he is a torturer, a murderer, they
had rape rooms".

Rape rooms.

4 year old kid sitting on couch with parent, who's watching the news:
"Mommy, what's a rape room?"

You call that a president?

Not everyone has the childish need to put a human on a pedestal and treat
them as a deity, John. A president is just another employee, no different
than your local postmaster.

All irrelevant. If you're a US citizen, he's your President. Now, if you'd
like to propose a Constitutional amendment that would allow each citizen to
designate his/her own Federal officers, contact your representative in
Congress, and they can start the ball rolling for you. Meanwhile, like it
or not, and until someone else is elected, George Bush is your President.
Sorry for the disappointment.

"President" implies leadership, and we each have a choice as to whether we
consider someone our leader. In a dictatorship, leadership is forced. In
this country, a leader gets his mandate (or not) from the people.

It's possible to work for a corporation where you are totally happy, but
consider the CEO a complete idiot. As long as it doesn't affect your
situation, it doesn't matter, does it?

The position deserves respect. The man in it must earn the respect. Bush has.
Quit fighting it. Pray for the economy to go to hell. Pray for more soldiers to
die. Pray for all the bad things you, et al, can think of. Then maybe one of the
nine dwarfs will be elected and you'll be happy again.
