Neocon Or Theocon...What would you classify Bush as?

[DemGirl7]

I'm just wondering what other DU members think, because on other websites that classify Bush as a neocon, while at the same time I've been on websites that classify Bush as more of a theocon(Fundie). Personally I would say that I see Bush as having the traits of both a neocon and a theocon, and I was just wondering what others think?

1. I'd classify Bush himself as more theocon, and a pretty clueless one...

...at that. His admin is solidly neocon, and does most (all) of the thinking.

2. A Corptheoneocon.

Can't wait until that species becomes extinct.

3. Neocon. His belief in God and Jeesus is political hype ala KKKRove. n/t

[Faygo Kid]

4. Moroncon.

You assume he has a political or religious philosophy. He doesn't, except he likes rich people and wants to play war. Cheney is a neocon. James Dobson is a theocon. W. is a moroncom.

5. Moron does just fine.nt

[karlrschneider]

6. Neither. More of a Pinnochiocon.

Nothing he does bears any resemblance to rational human behavior, he is basically a borderline idiot and is about as amoral as any biped can be.

7. Con

8. Rich, frat-boy dick who doesn't know his butt from his elbow...

...being used as a frontman for the neocon cabal. But 'Big Oil' wanted him too. The religious extremists are just votes. GWB is a zero. A convenient figure to front for the strange agents lurking in the background.

9. Moroncon n.t

[htuttle]

10. Kleptocon

He's a mobster and a con man.

[Ron Green]

11. Futurecon

And then ex-con, if he lives that long.

[Czolgosz]

12. NeoTrotskyite -- both Bush and Trotsky believe in a perpetual state of war

both believe the industry and government should be merged into one entity, but the only difference is Trotsky saw the state nationalizing industry and Bush sees industry buying out the state. Same goals, different route.

13. Corporate Errand Boy

Will rubber stamp anything. No conscience and unable to grasp detail or even care.
Years of Frat training and silver spoons.

War Criminal

14. I choose

dumbasscon or idiotcon. I grew up going to church and heard more about so as you do unto the least of you... plus his anti-intellectualism does not allow us to celebrate our blessings.

[Little Star]

15. Just plain ole Con works for me n/t

[donheld]

16. I classify Bush as an Idiocon

:bounce:

[FearofFutility]

17. Chameleoncon n/t

[A Simple Game]

18. Pseudotheoneocon.

That's a mouthful.

[Dem Agog]

19. I vote THEO...

If he were more secular and just simply evil, I'd say "neo"...

As it is he's "evil in the name of God" (I feel for a God if there is one) therefore "Theo" is my vote...

[cantstandbush]

20. He's not bright enough to be either. He is a corporcon. n/t

[ellenfl]

21. definitely theocon . . . for appearances mostly because

he doesn't have a christian bone in his latex-clad body. those around him are neocons. i think the neocons are pretty pissed off at his screwing up their imperialism.

23. The Bush family has always been cynical about religion.

George H.W. Bush, the proper pro-choice Episcopalian, became George H.W. Bush the pro-life bible thumper in no time. Jeb Bush became Catholic in a state where the heavily Catholic Cuban vote holds huge sway. George W. Bush says he basically is a fundamentalist born-again type, but refers to the possibility of life on Mars and ignored the anti-gay marriage ammendment after the election. The one thing they all care about is power, followed closely by money.

24. criminal

He's a lowlife criminal, worthy
or no other classification.

His "gang" are also criminals, not
endowed to any theology unless it serve a veil for theft.
So to criminals i have no care,
to not hear from them thankfully
as jurisprudence chews away the
republican corruption high and low
from bush to lowly election officials,
to root out a conspiracy to offend the
constitution, to subvert it cynically.
Why care what criminals get to ,
would sargeant peppers band play again.

25. Con.StupidCon.

[triguy46]

26. He's a neocon. he, like the others, will say what they have to...

to get the fundies on their side. Look, he's an east coast prep school, Ivy league son of episcopalians. He is no more a fundie than he has to act to get the votes. He's a scotch drinking, lying, carousing, druggie, partier, who figured out in Texas that its not what you do but what you say that counts. He doesn't attend church enough to be a true fundie.

[ShrewdLiberal]

27. Puppetcon of Big Oil and the military-industrial complex...

as a whole.
