President Bush gave himself a new nickname today: The "commander guy."

At a speech to the Associated General Contractors of America, Bush, who last year described himself as "the decider," coined a new nickname.

The question is, 'Who ought to make that decision, the Congress or the commanders?'" Bush told the crowd. "As you know, my position is clear – I'm the commander guy."

Given his recent veto of legislation that would enact timetables in Iraq, the New York Times' political blog, "The Caucus" quipped that perhaps another nickname could be "the veto man."



Or how about Commander Guy and Oil Dude? Zock! Pow! Whammo!

bush isn't always clear in his phraseology (surprised?)... i take his words to mean he aligns himself with the commanders rather than congress... kinda like, which beer do you like, bud light or miller lite? as you know i'm the bud guy

course i could be wrong

Or maybe as "the decider" he simply decides which commander he is willing to listen to - however, I think he means uno solo - the Machiavellian Prince.

I did hear that to change into their superhero costumes, B and C don't use a phone booth but the restrooms at the local Exxon station.

Quick, to the commandermobile, Oil Dude.

A commander guy, not the commander guy. It was an error on the translit.

And yes, he meant a commander guy instead of a congress guy or a polls guy.

And did he not also refer to Cheney as head of something? Does that mean that he is a Dick Head? But I guess a Dick in the Bush is worth much less than it should be... :)
