37. That's the term I use when discussing
with people I don't know, or people around whom I wouldn't ordinarily use profanity / vulgarity... think it used to be called "company manners." It's always "Bush" or (mostly with older folks) "Mr. Bush." Usually, as you and I are in agreement on his not acting alone, I refer to This Administration or This Gang of Thieves.

I've used the term "President B..." (can't even bring myself to type it) exactly once, in the context of a quote.

At home or around people I know, well....
