2. I think I'd still have to go for the one at MWO

For all freeper friends and relatives (even though I'm a Canuck I do have freeper relatives stateside)

We proudly introduce the latest issue in our Elite Force series of authentic and historically accurate 12-inch figures, George W. Bush in Phillips Andover Head Cheerleader uniform. Exacting in detail and fully equipped with authentic gear including pom-poms and megaphone, this limited-edition action figure is a meticulous 1:6 scale recreation of the Cheerleader-in-Chief leading his squad in cheering the Andover Varsity Boys' Volleyball Team on to a championship victory. A peppy Bush participated in a death defying 6-man pyramid stunt, then thrilled the crowd with a series of courtside cartwheels.

10. And just like the real president

And hold on kids, just like the real president the doll is missing the male anatomy. Has a hallow head and is fake. Doll parts include

1)costumes such as "cowboy hat" and "enviromental clothing"
2) Coming soon - Enrons private jet.

11. So far cardboard box worth $13 more than 'Elite Forces' Dubya

DU Dubya: $56
EF Dubya: $43
Realization that prez is worth less than cardboard: Priceless

12. Great commercials

The best way for Saturday Night Live to start the season, would be a commercial with boys playing out parts of W's life with this 'action figure.' They could go on Yalie panty raids. They could cry to daddy that they want to campaign for a Republican senator in Florida rather than fulfilling their national guard obligations to the country. Then they could go AWOL. And after that? Twenty fat years of snorting coke and looking for Jesus at the bottom of every bourbon bottle while raking in the bucks from dad's cronies, followed by a “cake” presidency. It’s what every boy aspires to.

13. Maybe Arianna will try this

I hear she's got Jesse Ventura's ad producer (made action figure commercials with Jesse as the hero)
