Is Bush going to become a Howard Hughes-type of recluse?
I realize Howard Hughes probably didn't travel with the entourage of bodyguards that Bush finds necessary, but it seems like Bush isolates himself more every day and I'm really wondering if he will end up in a room somewhere with long dirty hair, long fingernails, and crazy as a loon.

Whenever that is, tomorrow, next month, next year, whenever. He can rot then, for all I'll care.

3. Well, he's already got the 'loon' part down pat.
The hair and fingernails are easy.

7. I can imagine a day when he is lying naked
in his own excrement ... on Ruggie ... mumbling to himself about how optimistic he is.

Now, that is a fantasy I would pay money to see.

9. He's already crazy as a loon. I hope too never see him again
once he's out of office. I couldn't care less what happens to him after that day.

10. Remember Nixon, combing the San Clemente beach with his metal detector?
Edited on Fri May-12-06 07:38 PM by KrazyKat
*That* would be mainstream behavior compared to the squirrel-cage that * is headed for! :grr:

On edit: It was Steve Martin, I think, who first conjured up the image of Nixon on the beach with a metal detector. But it **ought** to be true, it's so right!!! :rofl:

12. He's already crazy as a loon
although, I don't think loons are crazy. But, JUST GET THE MOTHERFUCKER OUT OF MY SIGHT! Preferably in a prison.

There. I feel better now.

15. He'll commit suicide
when he's no longer surrounded by yes men and syncophants to feed and abet his delusions. If only a tiny fraction of what he's done to our nation, the world and it's people seeps into his conscience some day, he will put a gun in his mouth and blow his brains out. Or one could hope.

18. They'll cut his fingernails as long as they have to shove him
in front of a camera. However, solitary confinement will make a recluse out of you. If Bush does end up in jail, you can be sure he has to go into protective custody, kind of like Charles Manson, which means he's all alone, forever.

21. In a "solitary confinement" sort of way.
but that's a few years down the road.
