if you had 2, black n'white choices:

a tyrant? or a pansy?

the tyrant would say what he feels, do what he says, hold true to his beliefs and come thru on his promises, be them good or bad. if he says there's a tax cut and that everyone will get a job, he'll do it! but, if he says he wants a land bridge built from here to england, he'll do that, too. etc, etc.

the pansy would do and say what the people want, letting others make his (her ... yeah right! bwah hah... oh... shit, you can read this...damn... ahem.) decision. if the people want abortions and legalized drugs, even if only a 51% majority, thats what you'll get. if everyone votes against taxes? thats whut'll happen. etc, etc.

I guess I've always gone more the tyrant way, you just have to be carefull to watch and make sure your tyrant isn't a complete nutball. Sometimes it takes somebody with some balls to get things done, even if it's not a popular decision.

And everybody knows that when you go the pansy route, things end up looking like the DC boards...er...Marvel boards! Yeah, that's the ticket...

nein! my boards isht cleank!

...

...

yes...


personally, i think im all for the tyrant. W is a tyrant (if he had to be one). clinton was a pansy. i might rather hang out with my boy bill, but... he was a lame ass president.

also, i think guliani would be an EXCELLENT president. yeah, he's got his enemies, but... DAMN the guy was good for nyc.

Give me Daley any day. Just his speeches would be fun to listen to!

The odd thing is, is that Geo H W Bush was considered a pansy (even if he did spearhead Desert Storm), while his son is considered a tyrant. I've just always found that difference in perception to be pretty odd...

Plus, I get the feeling that George W would be a lot more fun at a kegger than Billy would...At least his daughters probably would be!
