Where can I get a George Bush doll, in the next few hours, in the Seattle area? I want to explode him with fireworks later tonight.
On second thought, that's Pops not son but maybe they have Jr too.

How about a lifesize cardboard cut-out? I know a lot of stores in the mall (and similar areas) carry these things.
Or a costume store could have a GWB mask that you could attatch to a body made of something flammable.

Have you tried Archie McPhees? Don't know if they're open today but that's a good place to start.

I've seen a GWB action figure doll some months ago, in a hobby store in Richmond BC.
We were so very tempted to buy one, but we demurred because it was rather expensive ($60). The box art showed GWB dressed in military uniform, in front of an air craft carrier.

We're going to need a video of this.

Knowing this administration, burning Bush in effigy might just get you a call from the Secret Service.

Yeah, they'll try to "infiltrate" you by offering to supply you with the fireworks.

Response by poster: Thanks for all the great ideas!
I decided to make one out of cardboard and printouts.... not as exciting as a plastic GW head exploding - but highly flammable!

Soak it in alcahol. (maybe cheney would be better for that.)

Posting in this thread so I get on the news when the Department of Homeland Security raids all "participants in the plot to blow up President Bush". Wah ha ha.
I would definitely be careful what fireworks you use. I guarantee you that a government official has seen this thread--that sounds REALLY tinfoil hattish, but you just know it's true--and using something illegal in your area would be a great excuse to nail you with something.
On reread, it still sounds like something Art Bell would say, but I can't shake the idea that it's sorta true.

I think President Bush is a fine chap, and deny the existance all previous comments concerning anything.

Response by poster: Update: He resisted fiercely but was eventually burned to death in the great “Freedom Tank War of 2006”.

Maybe you could shoot this seller an email and see if you could pick it up today? They're in Redmond.
