I think I'm going to be sick. Dubya action figure in an aviator suit
Tom Tomorrow wonders if it also comes with a 1/6 scale tube sock.

May not be that great of a gift after all, disappears after about a year and resurfaces as a coked up alcoholic.

10. Maybe the dog would like to chew on this?
Last night I was writing here about how the republican party is the party of geegaws and bells and whistles. Gimmicks. Now this, an action figure of the coward who ran on 9/11 and dodged VietNam and who went AWOL from even the cushiest of assignments.

23. they got the blank expression down pretty good.
I wonder - will they be sending one of these to the families of the men and women who have died since this idiot stunt?

Just a thought.

8. Pull the string on his back and nothing but funny noises
comes out of the mouth. They're all lies anyway. And batteries or no batteries, you can't get the thing to work for the whole month of August. And when you really NEED your George W. Bush action figure for some serious combat, he'll be nowhere to be found.

And he's less plastic than his real-life counterpart.

25. "G.I. Dub", huh?
All I can say is, "Bring him on!" :nuke:

Hey, where is the name patch on the front of his flight suit that says "A.W.O.L."? :eyes:

And where's the companion "Chip" Rove action figure ready to stuff socks down G.I. Dub's flight suit crotch at a moment's notice? :D

B-)

Head hollow?...check!

It's anatomically correct alright!

32. Sent product review
"1/2 star (Very Poor)

If the makers of this disgusting doll are truly committed to 'realism and exacting attention to detail' they should include in every box copies of 1st Lt. George W. Bush's Texas Air National Guard military records from 1972-1973 which reveal his suspension from flying status and his unaccountable disappearance (AWOL) for the better part of a year."

33. Did you see what the box said????
GEORGE W. BUSH
PRESIDENT/NAVAL AVIATOR
By no stretch of even the most active imagination is he a NAVAL AVIATOR!!


Worse yet, the description says that he "overflew the carrier before landing it on the deck......

Revisionist history? No, just plain bullsh**!

45. I prefer the DANCING DUBYA doll I got in China......
No picture here, but from the "Soldiers of the World" series, you can buy a 12 inch Bush doll in uniform. When you press a button he gyrates like an imbecile to some shitty dance music.

Saddam Hussein comes in the same series....

F*cking hilarious!
