My name is WestHoustonDem and I suffer from B.I.T.S.

DO YOU SUFFER FROM B.I.T.S.?
(Bush-Induced Tourrette's Syndrome)

? Do you yell and scream at the television whenever President Bush gives a speech?
? Has your use of profanity increased dramatically over the past five years?
? Have you made up new curse words because the old ones just don't cut it anymore?
? Have you nursed a hangover because you used a republican speech to play a drinking game and the "trigger" word (WMDs, 9/11, terrorists) was repeated more than a dozen times in less than 15 minutes?

I have a diagnosis!

I'll be the first to admit it. Do you know the cure?

The only cure is Chimpeachment!

Bring....it.....on!

That explains so much! :rofl:

Especially number 4! :rofl:

Welcome to B.I.T.S. Anonymous! :hi:

A big welcome to you too!

B.I.T.S. Anonymous is a great place to vent. :yourock:

My name is Kadie and I suffer from B.I.T.S.

at least now I know I am not alone.

:grouphug:

I have been suffering in silence and shame for too many years....

:grouphug:

thank you.

I used to be very mild mannered and gentle (pick yourself off the floor), however, I was driving yesterday and felt really bad that I didn't stop a little short to allow someone to cut out of a parking lot (I really thought there was room). No matter what I did, I couldn't maneuver so the lady could get through.
I felt horrible cause I know that it really sucks not to be able to get out of parking lots. Let me rephrase, I felt horrible until she pulled out and had a Bush sticker on her car. Then I was really happy I didn't let her out.
As Americans, we shouldn't feel this way about our neighbors, but I do.:(

:grouphug:

tourettes, lol lol. funny you that i am not solely effected with this syndrome.

:grouphug:

B.I.T.S. I haven't had a drink in nearly 21 years, but I sure hate that asshat, motherfucking, goddamned election-stealing, phony bible-thumping, glob of mexican food diarrhea, low-life fuck wad, douche-bag, Santorum smear (Google it), that pretends to be the president.

:rofl:

:rofl:

:grouphug:

drinking these days! LOL!

we share you pain. We understand.:grouphug:Get it off your chest.

You see, I'm married to a Republican and a Veteran. :scared: I just DU-a- lot :silly: <---no really, my Happy Place :D

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Good one, rzmanfl!

My name is DVJNU and I, too, am in the throes (NOT the last throes, mind you) of BITS. I don't see recovery in my future until 2008. Ain't that a BITS?

that I yell at. The radio, inanimate news articles in paper or electronic form, signs in yards, bumper stickers, personalized license plates... And it doesn't have to * speaking - really, just any of his many minions does it for me.

... it is a comfort to find fellow sufferers here at DU...



:grouphug:

"It's" one person :loveya: 36 years and I live to DU :D

:grouphug:

I truly DU from the trenches of Military/Falwell/Robertson Land :rofl:

Living in Falwell country ain't no picnic, is it?

Seems I suffer from B.I.T.S. as well. I've made up curse words that astound even my husband....the king of cursing.

Robertson's CBN, at least our power never goes out during hurricanes because we're on JEEEEsus's grid :D

which means I had BITS even before the 2000 election and have subsequently infected many others with BITS. :hi:

from B.I.T.S. since the 90's as well. :grouphug:

This debilitating condition is causing heartbreak nationwide. It has infected people in epidemic numbers and shows no sign of letting up for years...

Chimpeachment!

That way when the leader of the free world manifests himself on your TV screen you have something ready to throw at him that won't cause you serious financial hardship.

Potholders are good. They make a nice satisfying slapping sound but are guaranteed not to shatter the screen.

All day .... every day .... morning till night .... and sometimes in my dreams.

The only thing I can't blame on His Assholeness is currsing. I raised that to an artform years ago when I was in the Navy.

Glad you're here!

and three..I'm sure I still qualify for bits.

I won't let myself watch tv news except for the Daily Show..come to think of it I do "yell and scream" whenever Jon has on some fascist spewing idiot or the idiot-in-chief clips.

It's a good thing I stopped drinking alcohol in 2002!

My name is zidzi and I suffer from bits.

Thank you, WestHoustonDem, for giving it a name.

Chocolate helps! Margaritas and herbal calms help too!

when i watched SCOTUS help the 2000 election get stolen..but I thought it would get better..everyday some piece of me felt paralyzed..especially my heart..I hated everyone who pretended that everything was normal..i became afraid to travel to foreign countries...i spent abnormal amount of time on the internet trying to find real news before dawn...never sleep thru the night since 911..are these also symptoms?

to a group of people who know what I'm going through. It gives me strength to get through this.

All these years I couldn't figure out what my problem was. I am sending Bush my bill for doctor visits!

the radio; I mute the tv and give the same salute while trying to stifle the urge to :puke:. I've taught my kids to say "Bush**" if they want to utter anything that wouldn't be appropriate for someone their ages to say. I drink a beer or two or a glass of wine every night before I go to bed whereas I didn't drink much at all for a couple of decades!

During one of the SOTU addresses my kids and I were throwing petzels at the tv every time that he smirked, told a blatant lie, etc., and during the first 10 mins. we had to adjust our parameters because we had a large pile of pretzel pieces in the floor and were afraid it was going to get totally out of hand!

Thanks for giving it a name besides just feeling Bush**whacked!

I too have a serious problem controlling my middle finger. It flips up on it's own whenever I see or hear the dimson - sometimes with both hands! My weekend wardrobe is jeans with anti-boosh tee's (I must have 15!), which I wear proudly & the back window of my truck is plastered with anti-boosh sentiment. I've spent a small fortune at Cafe Press! ;)

At least I finally know what I suffer from -- B.I.T.S.

:rofl:

things 2 months later (entertainment unit was open and I'd find pieces behind the stereo unit, etc.) Hubby has the DU pretzel shirt and cafepress and I are buddies, too.

BushIsThisStupid along with Bush Induced Tourettes Syndrome perhaps?

"Cheney-head."

The symptoms have become worse with each passing year. :(

I suffer from B.I.T.S. too, but I believe I have a even more severe case, because I seem suffer from hives every time I see a republican/conservative on TV.

and I suffer from BITS - 3 out of 4 anyway. I have even gone so far as 2 travel 2 protest and yell at pretzeldent. It does relieve some symptoms but only briefly.

TO HELP ME?????????

i really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really

need a cure...:silly: :crazy: :silly: :crazy: :silly: :crazy: :silly: :crazy: :silly: :crazy: :silly: :crazy: :silly: :crazy: :silly: :crazy: :silly: :crazy: :silly:


little B.I.T.S OF FLY

I thought I was the only one :grouphug:

When he comes in, I go out! I really have an aversion to his visage. I have to leave the room or change the channel. I have the same problem with Charles Manson. Bush makes me cough.

--IMM

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

:hi: I am so afflicted.

I told my dad a few weeks ago, when he was at my house watching the POS give a speech:

"Turn it off. I hate him"

dad: why? that is so silly, he's the president, you should at least respect the office.

me: "This is my house, I don't want to hear or see that lying piece of shit in my house. He makes me want to vomit and shit at the same time. Turn it off now."

dad: okay okay- sheesh.

I do not normally curse in front of my father. and we DO NOT discuss politics, obviously.

I take it to mean something so impossibly, insanely wrong that it would screw itself if there were cash involved.


:thumbsup:

n/t

make up a new cussword and PM'd it to a DU friend yesterday, and asked her if I would have my posts deleted if I used it in every one of my posts: Jesusmotherfuckingcocksuckingassholedickheads. I used to be dignified, but not anymore, because of the Jesusmotherfuckingcocksuckingassholedickheads.

or as the Dixie Chicks sing....let it rip, let it fly...:grouphug:

I'm not alone?!? Bless you all...

Thank you thank you thank you

:grouphug:

I'll be going back to Crawford this August-
hope to meet up with you again!

Hugggssss!!!!

ITMFA, we could curb the pandemic of profanity breaking out all over.

recognize it for what it was. The most severe symptom is the use of language I never used in my life. Yes, I've coined new words so that those around me will not think I have a sewer mouth.I am told the cure will come in 2008 but will I live long enough to benefit? I am advised to avoid looking at men from Texas with certain grins, especially those who might have given thought to wearing a Speedo. (Even if the thought was dismissed). Best temporary treatment...healthy dose of Keith Olbermann every evening.

"Best temporary treatment...healthy dose of Keith Olbermann every evening."


:rofl: So true!


:hi:

It's only my neighbor cursing at the shrub....

Do I know you dogday? I live on Memorial between Dairy Ashford and Kirkwood. Where are you?

We are just a stone's throw.......

off Bissonett and the Sam Houston toll way.

nice to know I have some DU friends right around the corner... If you ever need anything, just pm me...

good way to keep up with local activities.

I suffered from that ailment!

Thanks for the info! :hi:

I've been afflicted for about five years now.

and I have been suffering from B.I.T.S. for the past 5.2 years!

Please help me! :-(

My cats and dog are extremely worried about me.

A prominent doctor from the New York University Medical Center recently announced that he has made some miraculous strides in finding a cure for B.I.T.S.

He is pretty positive a cure will be found in early November 2006.

Not only do I have involuntary cursing tics at the site of Bush, I have involuntary muscle spasms in which objects are hurled at the tv screen (forcing me to remove all hard objects from coffee and end tables and wear slippers only). I have hand and finger spasms (the good news is that I have learned insulting hand gestures in many cultures now). I too make up new 'colourful adjectives'. I can now curse in several languages because sometimes English just is not enough.

I have tried to be as positive about this disease as I can. There is no cure at the moment, but I have hope that one will be found in less than 2 years. I have become more spiritual. I am on my knees in prayer more, and I go to church every weekend. Prayer and worship does seem to help me, although God has not taken any of my suggestions.

And speaking of suggestions, I thing we need to come up with a 12 step recovery program and a detox program. I find it helps to be around other sufferers. We frequently suffer in silence or family, friends and co workers don't understand. Even a W sticker can set off and uncontrollable spasm.

Thank you for letting me unburden myself...

I just turn the volume down and mime the words I want him to say, or turn the channel. It works marvelously.

Never has there been a president I just couldn't listen to, like this one. Even Reagan and Bush's dad were more tolerable.

at least 6 years now.

I had a recovery in the 1990's but here I am again

My BITS affects my driving - people just don't understand that my reaction to a "great thing about Americans" comment REQUIRES three lanes, both hands, and a lot of sputum.

A few years back, I had a friend who tried the John McCainadone treatment, but found it only took the edge off a little, and after 4 or five public statements, it sounded the same.

I actually understand that there is no painful effect from withdrawal - just elation...

O8)

Why do you all hate America?

;-)

anymore, as I'm just a ball of inchoate rage. So I now go out and vigil for 2-4 hours a day. (I remind myself of the character in Wim Wenders' "Paris, Texas" who stands on an L.A. freeway overpass screaming his prophecies of doom at the motorists passing beneath.)

Gnashing of teeth and pulling of hair has taken a terrible physical toll.

its called the Background Intelligent Transfer Service. Your computer uses it to keep itself updated :)

That probably adds no value but someone may find it amusing ;)

turning blue. The outbreak is widespread here in Michigan.... everyone is turning blue.

:toast:

I stopped watching TV news. Now I hardly even read the newspaper in the a.m.
My husband and I also took control of our lives and bought property
in Panama and are building a house. If things get ugly here, we head south.
AND for those following the gold bug threads, yes, we have gold coins stashed in a safe deposit box (my husband has been a gold bug for YEARS)and are figuring a strategy for their removal.

Now I know it has a name. The only cure is to impeach him and get him out of our White House.

Sonia

You mean I'm not the ONLY one who has this? I am so ready for this to be over!

dg

I first suffer from this 1980 through 1992, then it went away in Jan, 1993. It came back in Jan 2001, but this time, I am suffering sever case of it, lot worst than the first time!

repeated accidental witnessing of Bush appearances on radio or TV by clicking onto DU. It's a sanity raft in a sea of complete nuttiness. Any friends or co-workers who shake their heads at each new outburst by * -- I recommend a strong dose of DU. It works!

It's so great to know that I have company. I wanted to respond to everyone individually, but I have been tied up with a family emergency.

Some of you know my dad's been in the hospital most of the year and I am visiting him and my mom this week. It's so hard to keep up with everything, but this is where I'm needed right now.

Just know that I love DU and appreciate all of the support.

a related condition: Repuke-Induced Tourette's Syndrome.

Besides Bush**, other repukes known to trigger outbreaks for me include Cheney, Frist (meow!), Santorum, Scalia, Thomas, Ahh-nuld, Rush the OxyMoron, O'Really?, Insannity, Tucker the F--ker, and countless others.

Needless to say, I must keep my Demulair (TM) inhaler within reach at all times, lest a repuke suddenly appear on any of about 500 cable chanels and trigger a potentially fatal outbreak. :scared:

BushInduced Tourette Syndrome is caused by BushedUpBeyondAllRecognition

What can I, err, he do to keep B.I.T.S. from effecting my, I mean his social life? He can't seem to stop BITSing in public.

Also, I think he may have KRAM (Karl Rove Associated Madness)
