Will George Bush be intimidated by the Democratic Congress ?

[kentuck]

Or will he attempt to continue doing just as he was doing when he had his rubber-stamp Congress? Will he act the same way he did when he had the majority? Will he still claim unlimited powers as the king..uh..President of the country? Will he change or will it be politics as usual?

1. I vote SAME.

To imagine otherwise would be to imagine him capable of learning. I think he will plug along as if nothing had happened, and either all the god little lackeys will somehow keep saving his ass from the consequences of his own stupidity, just as has happened for him for the past 50 years or so, or everything will collapse and Jim Baker will dig through the wreckage of the country & take the keys from him, but way too late and after he has driven us all into an abutment.

Actually, not that I think about it, he already has driven us into an abutment. The average American just doesn't realize it yet. And there's Baker, digging through the wreckage, too. Just like my vision.

2. Dumbya is a bully and a coward -- whether he's intimidated is up to the Dems

If they show some spine he'll fold like a cheap suit.

4. I agree

The emperor won't know what to do if someone challenges his omnipotence.

3. He will be more temperate on the advice of

Baker, and Bush1. Cheney will be put on ignore. IMO.

5. Doubtful. More likely the Dems will be intimidated by Bush.

Bush has every incentive to blitz the Dems with outrages. He has nothing to lose. When the Dems stand up to him, he will call them obstructionist. When they investigate him, he will call them witch hunters. If they change the country's approach to Iraq, Bush will blame Dems for the final huge loss.

Bush is never, ever intimidated because he thinks it's all a big game. Bush's self-confidence is an axiom in his little pin head, not a theorem.

6. The vote will not change him, not one little bit.

[undeterred]

7. I think he will throw tantrums when he doesn't get his way.

His own party has certainly been intimidated by him.

8. Shrub is intimidated already
