Bush’s nicknames for his clique.

I personally like the pair of names “Ali” and “Frazier” for the junior and senior senator from California, respectively. I’m guessing “Ali” came to his brilliant mind first when he realized the clever wordplay made possible by Barbara Boxer’s last name, and then Frazier just kinda followed, because unless its an inside joke, Feinstein has nothing to do with “Frazier.”

When he came up with that one I’m sure he chuckled. Dude is ingenious.

I also really liked the nickname of “corndog” for Republican Senator from Texas John Cornyn, who, if you click on the link, once said regarding gay marriage:

“It does not affect your daily life very much if your neighbor marries a box turtle. But that does not mean it is right. Now you must raise your children up in a world where that union of man and box turtle is on the same legal footing as man and wife.” [From a transcript of a speech to the American Heritage Foundation provided by Cornyn's office to the Washington Post]

We all knew that a complete cowboy buffoon was running our country, but I think these nicknames lend a great human interest angle to the story…you know, so we see once again that he’s just one of the “normal down-to-earth people”.
