> I think someone actually said "I do not like Bush".
How could you rephrase that and still keep the meaning of your message?
"I do not think Bush was an effective President"
or "I do not agree with Bush's policies"are not the same thing.
The only way I could think to rephrase that would be to state:
"I do not agree with Bush's beliefs, character, policies, decisions, family attitudes, the clothes he wears, the way he looks, or the way he talks....etc. etc."
Seems to make sense to say "I don't like Bush"
I am not even being serious as this just seems entertaining to me...I understand this is very disppointing to you and not funny in that aspect..but w/o the ability to do anything about the situation, sometimes I just laugh at it.
