Why is president bush called Dubya?

[5029]

Its after the American pronounciation of his middle initial (W), which he uses to distinguish himself from his father

[KEJ2000]

Clarification: Not the "American" pronunciation, but specifically the Texan (person living in the state of Texas) pronunciation. Americans outside of Texas pronounce it exactly as "double yoo". Texans have a unique dialect. GWB is from Texas, of course.

because they're not allowed to use the word t0$$er in the press

darth vade that's not a very nice thing to say about Mr Bush you don't even know him more than what you read in the newspaper he's only done what lot's of other people didn't have the balls to do and there are millions of people who have backed him compared to the few who don't, If September the eleventh happened in the UK and Tony Blair decided to take out al qaeda and then Saddam and the United stated stepped in to help us would he be such a to$$er then? !!!!!

[Hippy]

Let's not forget that the Bush family have been deeply into making loads of money from oil, swindles surrounding oil, and cosying up to Middle East shakers and movers, including a certain Mr. Bin-Laden. I think, seen from a distance the hypocracy and blatant vote buying/subversion practiced by this intensely self interested clan would be amusing if it were not so dangerous to us all. Darth seems to have the measure.

Personally, I don't like this dubbaya business. I feel very strongly that Double Ewe suits him perfectly and we should all make an effort to refer to him that way!!!

[darth vader]

sorry ukkid76, perhaps not very nice of me, but i still stand by it. I thought he was a t0$$er long before 9-11 and Hippy has correctly pointed out most of my sentiment. Add the fact that he simply picked a fight with Saddam to get even on daddy's behalf. And finally, if it were the other way round and the UK were asking USA for help you think they would jump so quick to help? yeah right.....

[darth vader]

....oh and reneging on the Kyoto pact

[darth vader]

..picking a fight with Korea. shall i stop now?....

[darth vader]

rubbing China's nose in it with some "world's most dangerous" list

[bazwillrun]

and darth vaders stuff is just the thin end of the wedge, read up on how he stole the presidency, and delve into his past "business" dealings, how much more do you want ? jeeesh !!

[treaclefight]

the stuff that floats to the top isn't necessarily the cream......
