Regarding Presidents
August 20th, 2009 by Bell

Wildcat and I had the following discussion this morning:

  • Wildcat – “Is there ever going to be a girl President?
  • Me – “Maybe one day…she has to get elected by all the people”
  • Wildcat – “Why don’t YOU be President?”
  • Me – “I really don’t think I like politics enough to be President”
  • Wildcat – “Me neither. And I don’t want to be President because they all die”
  • Me – “Everybody dies, kiddo. Do you mean they get shot?”
  • Wildcat – “Yeah. Except Barrack Obama is still alive”
  • Me – “Yep. And George Bush and Bill Clinton and daddy George Bush… and MOST Presidents actually just die because they are old and get sick…not because they get shot.”
  • Wildcat -  “YEAH. Except for George Washington. I think he died when he was old…or actually, he died because he fell off a cliff.”
  • Me – ???
  • Wildcat – “But I can’t remember for sure”
George Washington

George Washington

I looked it up for him.

George Washington DEFINITELY did not die from falling off of a cliff.

Just in case you were wondering.

So he survived the fall off the cliff?

Was the fall from Mt. Rushmore?

This is hilarious. I need to read stuff like this more. Thanks for sharing it.

BTW, how did the website decide on what my little monster looks like? Wanted to make sure you didn’t design it based on my personality. That would be both scary and quite likely accurate… Sigh.

heh…

It just randomly picks the monster avatars. But once you’ve commented, you will always have the same monster.

Glad you’re happy with the little green monster with sharp teeth.

Just for fun, here’s an interesting article on how GW really died. http://xnet.kp.org/permanentejournal/spring04/time.html

In short, he caught a bad cold and they “bled” him to death. Sounds as bad as falling off a cliff!

So, in short… I’m kind of an angel (halo) who doesn’t smile (sharp teeth) who has delusions of grandeur (wings) but is still stuck on the ground (legs)…

You guys are too funny.

NM- thanks for the link. Great info. I actually read something else regarding his “blood letting”.. I’m glad medicine has improved since then.

I think he died of a venereal disease, pretty much like most of the other founding fathers. Have fun explaining that one to Wildcat!

Wait I thought he died from haveing a headache and going to the doctor to get it fixed but back then there way of fixing things was to draw alot of blood out. So I thought he died from lack of blood…

Oh I guess some people have a bigger heart than others. My head is a triangle. I look like a lopsided house. And I am orange, orange burnt orange on top of it.
