How about re-christening Hanford as the George W. Bush Nuclear Waste Depot? George Bush Garbage Dump? All those dairy farms up north can be named for Dubya, they produce an eerily similar odor.

Posted by Trumpet at 7/18/08 10:31 a.m.

Since the right wants to nameso many things after Reagan, it's only fitting that we name things after Bush. And after the second Bush presidency, there should be sewage plants all over the country named after him.
However, the nuclear- or should it be nucular- waste dump at Hanford would be more appropriate to name after Bush, since nobody sane wants either one of them around.
The nuclear dump would actually be more fitting, since sewage plants give us something that can actually be useful.

Get on to more important things like the price of gas and diesel which is hurting the american people for which the Lib Dems and left could care less so vote them out of office.

"Everybody blames Bush, when the us congress has lower public ratings(33% vs 18%). Quit blaming Bush you idiots!"

You doo realize, I hope, that the current congress was elected in '06, as full 4 years AFTER Bush was elected and the Repubs had had control of BOTH the House and the Senate since Clinton was in office? The ONLY reason the Dems in Congress haven't been able to accomplish more is that most of the Repubs rebuff most of their attempts to get legislation passed.

But who's really suprised that the Repubs are trying to pass the buck on the current economic situation in the US to the Dems? Certainly not I.

I live in San Francisco, and I sincerely hope that my fair city does rename the plant after Bush. It's so perfectly the right thing to do for so many reasons! As for people like you Rancher Paul...you absolutely scare the hell out of me. You honestly think Bush is a leader when in reality all he does is follow behind the real leader of that administration, Cheney??? Your blind patriotic type of stance, "my president, my country right or wrong" is exactly how Hitler came into power. Bush expects everyone to be a good American, yet he spits in the face of US Law by claiming executive privilege anytime he gets called into account for something he's perpetrated against the American people.
I can tell you this, even if a Democratic president pulled the kind of crap that Bush has over the past eight years, I would reprehend and slam him (or her!) just as much as I do Bush!

RancherPaul is correct:

ALL Seattleites are bad people who lack decent values -- and EVERYONE who happens to live outside Seattle are good people with admirable values.

And: The heroic President Bush was appointed by the Supreme Court (on behalf of God) to LEAD not FOLLOW the will of the mere citizenry. Why would a genius be influenced by fools?

Poster #152554 is correct too:

While the Seattle and San Francisco communists whine about trivial matters like the Constitution, (non)torture, and Halliburton's domestic detention camps, President Bush -- the only one here with a Masters of Business degree and a background in the Texas oil business -- has obviously been working hard on "more important things like the price of gas." Can't you ingrates be a little more appreciative of the good man's efforts?!!

In addition: The Seattle P-I is the worst communist, America-hating, and sex-obsessed newspaper that Good Decent Americans like us rush to read first thing every morning -- and we pray to the One True God that the P-I will one day see the error of its ways.

Posted by jlawsl at 7/19/08 1:38 a.m.

The insults keep coming in. There is no point in trying to change people's minds or tell them they may be a little ignorant on some subjects. It doesn't matter. But that is the American way, label someone, hate them, then blame someone else once that person is gone. Once President Bush is gone, someone else will have to take center stage for all of the world's problems, will it be McCain? Obama? Congress? Maybe China will take the fall next time?

For all of the "problems" that have been caused, by both Congresses(Democratic and Republican) and mainly the President, very little has changed in Washington. People still go to work every day, get their coffee fix, wait in traffic, and generally live life just like they did before the year 2000. Ask yourself this-Is such an immature, distasteful and enduring thing like naming a sewage plant after someone out of malice and contempt really going to change anything? Will anyone even remember why it was named? With American's tendencies to have extremely short term memories concerning global matters, that is doubtful.

It is the duty of Americans to take responsibility for their actions and ask themselves if they could have done any better under the circumstances and if they could, where were they? Actions speak louder than words and America has become a very loud place to live. Perhaps people should look back at the last 8 years and actually think about how their lives were actually changed by any of the events that made it on national television. Perhaps go back 16 and start there. Other then gas prices and technology, a vast majority of people would probably admit that not much is different except that most of the local problems still exist. From crime to congestion, Washingtonians seem to ignore the little problems that do affect their everyday lives. Then they worry about and protest things that will rarely be of any consequence to them.

As with any strong house, Americans need a strong foundation that is their citizens, sturdy walls that are the local and state governments and a good roof that is the federal government. As citizens, we have no room to complain about global issues if we can not take care of local and state matters first. Much less naming an object after someone as an insult. If readers heed their own words, then they would know that brash decisions and hatred solve nothing.

For better or for worse I love this country and trust my government, Democrats, Republicans, or otherwise. I refuse to blame all of America's problems on one man. That is the easy way out. Mistakes or not, there are no quick fixes to the problems in the world today. I can only hope that, as a country, we can mature and grow more patient. Most people within my age group want instant gratification and have little sense of responsibility for their actions. They have short term memories and short sighted goals. People in my generation live beyond their means and blame others for their disparities. The easy way out is the only way and anyone that tells them otherwise is close minded or wrong. If anyone deserves to have a toilet or sewage plant named after them, I would say it should be most of American citizens that fall into this age group. Their self indulgence and selfishness will be the thing that flushes this country down the toilet.

Posted by SunshineAlways at 7/19/08 3:28 p.m.

I guess the best on can say for Bush is that he lacks the collective imagination to comprehend even the most elementarily consequences of his actions---or lack there of. With reference to his MBA from Yale, all I can say is that Yale must be proud to have such a distinguished alumni. Either he was much smarter then, or Yale was not living up to its high standards. In any case, I believe that he started out with at least an average intelligence. I also believe that line they tell us about how drugs make people stupid... Then there is Bush's belief that his ticket to frame was in not slowing how smart he was, else he seem like an elitist, but rather to dumb down to the mentality of some untapped right wing segment of the populous that liked hearing people mangle the English language. I think that Bush put on that idiot act for so long that he actually became the idiot he was trying to pretend he was. In so far as Bush being a total failure, I guess in many people's eyes he is. But that may be because of the way we define success verses the way he does. To most people, the Iraq war was at best, a stupid thing to get involved with-- as it has gone quite badly since the day the "major fighting ended." However, Bush feels like it has gone well. So why is it that 200 million Americans see things one way and this guy sees things a differently? Is it that the 200 million Americans don't love their country, or is it something else? I recall that at the time, most people felt that the American Civil was a frightful and tragic event. But I also know that there was one class of people who felt differently: namely, war profiteers. For, here was a group of people who felt the war was great success no matter how many causalities--no matter who was winning. So.. to the folks of Seattle I can not suggest any one public object as a fitting tribute to this guy. But you can name all the public bathrooms after this man you want, but what would really insult him, is in having millions of Americans each plant one new tree and dedicate it NOT to Bush. If they live to see the tree mature-- they might then take some pleasure in knowing that perhaps the damage this guy has caused might have been rectified by then. Certainly, global warming will be no worse for it.
