Hey, got a question for ya! What do you call a leader who dresses in faux military garb, complete with epaulets and name over the left breast, and has pictures on billboards emblazoned "our leader"?

Oh man. We've gotta drive out I-4 later this month from the Orlando airport to my parents' house, I hope they've removed this eyesore before then! If not, hmm, what is the penalty for throwing a strategic tomato at a billboard? (And if anyone starts calling this *ss-clown of a president "Dear Leader", I'm definitely heading for Finland!)

Diane, I've been wondering this for a while now. Why Finland?

My husband's company is headquartered in Finland and we could essentially move there next week and be assured of a regular income, they'd welcome him with open arms.
Learning Finnish would be a bear, though...

Perhaps because:
You're so near to Russia,
So far from Japan.
Quite a long way from Cairo,
Lots of miles from Vietnam.

There's a tradition of presidents wearing pseudo-military garb. My biggest disappointment with Bush's choice is that I first thought it was a
Members Only jacket.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your
comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
