The situations were very different when Bush took office too - I mean lets be realistic - A LOT of shit has gone down in the last 8 years concluding with the grand finale of all time - the economic crisis.

This sums up the last 8 years pretty well IMHO:

I believe ImPeachMint was first introduced during the Nixon administration, at least according to my book on ice cream. Perhaps Potatoe Surprise could work for another.

Heehee...that's why I changed it to "chocolates" rather than "chocolate" as it was in the original post. I had to recreate the number disagreement.

I did neglect to carry it on into the second sentence. Rats!

This thread explains why she was in my dream last night at least.
Although she looked like "Dr" Gillian McKeith.

I was having a row with her about 9/11, in my local supermarket - where I think we were both working. I was so angry I couldn't stop my voice cracking, like when you're trying not to cry.

The unattractive and unpopular always make fun of those with opposite attributes.

I was delighted when I heard that Jeremy Paxman was interviewing her. He is one of our harshest and most astute political interviewers. He's edged high level politicians into damning admissions and is well known for taking no shit. He bites and he holds.

How disappointed was I? He simply could not believe that the person in front of him was capable of the views espoused in the book she was promoting. So he wasted his questions in bemused disbelief - "Do you really mean it when you say...?" To which her answer was always, Yes, or I wouldn't have written it."

Cultural differences.
