Collin, our resident illustrator, was nice enough to sketch an image of George Bush for us, but I don’t know what to do with it. So, whoever has the best idea wins the life-sized John Ritter cut-out that I promised to give away last week, but never did. If you’ve got a good idea for a slogan or something, we’ll add some color, make a jpeg, and see if we can make it spread like a cancer across these intranets of ours.

I have a great idea! Seriously! We make an image of hungry wolves circling a group of frightened people, just like in the new Bush/Cheney ad, only all the wolves have the heads of Bushies. There’s Cheney, Ashcroft and Bush, their tongues hanging out, as they stalk around. And the text beneath it can say, “Keeping America Terrified since 2000.”
Make that image into a mask. Then on halloween make a bunch of masks and some signs that show off the things Bush has done in his 4 years,[example: “49- Number of states that increased tuition at their public colleges and universities in 2003. State budget cuts fueled by the Bush recession have forced colleges to hike tuitions and fees-threatening access to higher education for low-income students.” (Associated Press, 8/25/03)]
Then have these guys stand on street corners.
What about a children’s book called The Pet Bush, about a bunch of CEOs and their pet President?
As for this image, what if we just do something simple, like add the phrase, “Because Some of Us Want the Apocalypse,
How ’bout:
What me worry?
(about the rapture)

How about this in honor of Halloween…
“You want to know somethign really scary?
I’ve let Uncle Dick put his Cheney… in an undisclosed location (that the bathing suit covers)”
Hmm.. maybe that is more dumb than scary.
No, that’s scary, Dan. Definately scary.
I was thinking just now about something Doug Skinner once said here abut Bush giving up booze and how that made him a “flip flopper.” Going off of that idea, perhaps we could have the two faces of GWB in a graphic. One side could show him drunk on his ass and the other could show him praying. Above each side, it could have the coresponding dates. Then, at the bottom, it would say “George Bush: Flip Flopper,” or something like that.
Actually, while amusing, I don’t know that a graphic like that would necessarily change anyone’s mind, or motivate someone to vote who wouldn’t normally.
We are down to the wire, especially considering that I would have to get the work done in time for it to effect anyone’s vote. Odds of that? So my suggestion is this, if he loses we make it into a farewell poster with a caption like, “Thank you for the chance to fuck up the country!” and if he wins (apart from having bigger worries than what to do with a drawing) we can turn it into an effigy puppet that can be burned on the street corners across America. Until we lose that right.
What about if we neither have a clear winner or a clear loser, Collin? What if Bush refuses to leave the White House?
OK, here’s an idea for if he loses… A poster that says, “Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.”
Wait. Collin, how about adding the words, “Come and join me in my fantasy world” to his image? I like that, and it reinforces the fact that he doesn’t dwell in our “reality-based world.”
who won this contest?
No one ever wins my contests. That’s how I can keep offering the same prize.
