Irrational dislikes: Bush's use of fourth grade nicknames, ie: "Brownie", "Turd Blossom", "Fredo", "Big Country", "Big Time".
Rational dislikes: His fourth grade competency, ie: handing out important positions to poilitical donors and hacks, his ridiculous shenanigans in Iraq, his abandonment of statesment like Colin Powell when his own fuckups come to light, his boosting of a dizzy headed cheerleader for the supreme court.
Rational dislikes of his followers: Their penchant for screaming "umme finish! umme finish!" whenever they have to defend another stupid action committed by their deer leeder, almost always followed by, "Clinton said the same thing!" or "Clinton got a blowjob!"
