The Pocket President. Want an enormous tax cut for the wealthy? Need a pesky environmental regulation indefinitely "reviewed"? With the Pocket President, all this and much more is within your grasp. 7 inches tall, printed on sturdy cardboard, and free shipping! You can even download a sample.
Whoopee, another Bush bashing! People just keep getting more clever and insightful!

I want a Pocket Al Gore... That way if I even feel like publicly humiliating my self, over and over again, I can just look down and remember 'Oh, yeah, that didn't go over to well for you, did it?"

you think all these Pocket Whoevers could be used like little voodoo dolls? If so, I'd like a Pocket Steve Largent please.

Al Gore nauseates me, as does President Bush in the domestic policy realm. But, helas, life isn't perfect. You gotta chose, and I chose to trust the President in realms other than foreign policy. Because there won't be any "room" for decent environmental policy if the world is controled by nuclear police states. First things first.

Erasmus, did you sign up just to post that?
No, though my signing up and my posting that inane statement have the same root cause: It's a boring, boring Friday at work.

Did I misread, or did you say you don't like him in either domestic and foreign policy?

Funny post, thank you josephtate.
I like this part:
A Special Message for the Rich and Powerful
Greetings!
Kindly ignore what you've been reading on the Pocket President web site; it's simply designed to stir up the masses and make them think they can actually make a difference.
Now you, on the other hand, are a titan of industry, a controller of wealth, or possibly Dick Cheney himself. And what better way to remind friends, family, and co-workers that you actually have the President in your pocket than with the easy-to-display Pocket President!
Imagine the hilarity at your next Board of Directors meeting when the discussion turns to how your multinational corporation can bend Washington to your will, and you bust up the room by pulling back your suit coat to reveal George W. Bush in your pocket!
And then, as the laughter subsides, you casually pick up the phone, dial the White House, and the President himself is immediately heard on the speakerphone obeying your every wish and command! Who's a master of the Universe? You are, baby!
That's right, you the man! I mean, you really are "The Man!"
Regards,
Your pals at pocketpresident.com

Is that a president in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?

I like Pocket Congress - it folds in half at the first sign of resistance.

Using the euphemism generator, my Pocket President is phoning the BIG STIFF ELVES! Bet I'll get some action real soon (I'm just not sure what kind. Hold me, I'm very afraid.).

Hildalgo: you are correct, sir. Except I mean't the opposite (at least consciously).

"...when I sign an executive order next week that requires all computers to be powered with coal or nuclear..."
Excuse me, what's that last word again? Imposter!
