Nah, I'm pretty sure most folks on the ground here in the US don't really think there's enough Middle East left to invade to fill up another Bush administration. Mind you, plenty of them probably aren't really strong on exactly what or where the Middle East is to begin with, but that's neither here nor there. Another GB would be spurious at this point, insofar as they're concerned, y'know?

[channeling]What's Korea got to do with th'middle east? S'too wet over there to be something a Bush would be helpful for invading.[/channeling]

Though I'm not sure if any the presidents still alive or their progeny would give a +1 bonus to East Asia Invasions. Or was Bush actually a penalty to Middle East Invasions? Ah, who knows.

Ah, unless you're talking about the evasion thing. Yeah, maybe a Bush would help in avoiding involvement.

He's left handed? I didn't know that.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

I'm not sure about how heredity affects handedness (my father is left-handed, but I'm not), but most presidents are distantly related, so it isn't all that strange. Even without that, handedness is 69.5/29.5/1 for Right/Left/Ambidextrous, so the odds aren't as huge as you'd think.

I'm dyspraxic so I sometimes change. That said, I always eat left handed but write with my right.

Well, I forsee a republican civil war coming. I can already see the sides bein drawn.
 
In one corner, "we were not conservative enough, it's mitt Romney's fault we lost" disputing every single piece of knowledge known about the elections
 
In this Corner: "The republican party alienated centerists. Our turnout wasn't the problem, that was great. Our problem was extremists beliefs alienating Hispanics, Women, the young, and the atheist."
 
Who will win?
