What TV show would Bush be a good character on and how?
I think he'd be good as Eddie Haskell's meaner, dumber brother on LEAVE IT TO BEAVER.

2. The Stooges were far smarter than Bush
I think he'd work as a prop in some bad, low budget sci-fi show. Maybe.

4. Eddie Haskell, Butch from the
Little Rascals. The 3 Stooges all had good hearts underneath the antics. Not mean enough to compare to bush.

10. I've never seen Bush wearing jeans with no shoes or shirt. He'd have no..
place to hide the wire going to his ear.

Remember Ricky Schroeder's character, born with a silver spoon?? He's about that old on the maturity scale too.

23. The Office.
He could stand in for "Michael Scott," the smarmy, clueless manager who thinks he's cool and clever and sexy and suave and that all the employees love him, never imagining that they think he's an offensive idiot.

31. He could be a patient on "House" and all the doctors could discuss
whether its organic brain disease, a personality disorder, or something else that makes him act like such a lunatic.

32. Dallas
Edited on Sun Dec-11-05 07:31 PM by Will Robinson
I've always thought of him as being a J.R. type, although actually it's the Bush/Rove combination that is J.R.-like. And then there's the whole Texas oil thing, too.
