Got Bush?

When I was a lad and just developing an interest in such things, "bush" was common slang for a woman's... well, you can figure it out. A usage immortalized in Booger's ecstatic exclamation, "We've got bush!"

When the former head of the CIA, George H., ran for office, jokes involving the slang meaning of his name were popular. That meaning, for good or ill, seems to have been lost. Now, whenever I hear the name, I can't help but think of a closely neighboring orifice that both genders posses.

I generally avoid talking about George; I'm just hoping we can wait him out and undo the damaged. The extent of my interest in politics is simple, how much does the State encroach on personal freedom? By that measure, this run of politics has been the most distressing since this little guy named Adolf led the Nazi party.

Yes, something spawned this rant. I really can't add to that, except that I can't goose step.
