My Mom and I were invited to a ball after the election because she is a 9/11 widow...and I refused to go. I am trying to decide what I would have done if I met him. I probally would spit on him, but then I don't think I would have a chance with his daughters.

i want to spit on him so bad I've wanted to do it for a while i tried to a few years back when he came to our town but i couldn't get close enough I've explained to my husband that if i do get my chance I'll most likely end up in jail for a little while he okay with that "what ever makes you happy baby " I'll hock up the biggest lugger i can muster when the time comes , and as a woman (a married woman ) your way too cute for those nasty assss bush girls . i would have went to the ball if i was you but would have ended up being escorted out and held in jail my spit might have been followed by a few left hooks if i could have gotten them in before security got a hold of me

Like him or not, he is still The President and you have to show respect.
With that being said, my personal opinion of Bush is one of much disappointment in the job he is doing but I would not have gone up to him to spit in his face.
I am sorry for your loss on 9/11 but spitting at The President will not change anything.
I lost Two Great Friends when Tower 2 collapsed.

I would afford him the respect due his office, and shake his hand.
If you can't be nice, be quiet, when in a social situation. The reason for that is, when you are interacting with people of high profile positions, all eyes are on you. Spitting is a child's insult. A grown up is capable of keeping his/her mouth shut, until asked their opinion. Want to be treated with dignity and respect, then give it. Ghandi and Jesus, did; and, so can you.
And, MSJP is absolutely right. An act of hate and vengeance does not erase the loss. It doesn't ease your feelings. All it does is make more problems.

Like him or not, he is the President! The people attacking him so cruelly are the people tearing apart the fabric of this country. If everyone stood together, determined to win this war, the country would be so much stronger. I would personally shake any Presidents' hand with pride!

I am fascinated by policy. I would have asked something along the lines of, "to what extent will the U.S. need to rely on proxies to maintain military preeminance in the face of an aging population with greater social benefit requirements and a likely diminishing DOD budget?"
Also, Woodward says he likes fart jokes, so I'd probably make sure to fart... and then tell a joke.

I would shake his hand. I think he is a great man.
Spitting on him or threatening him or encouraging others to do so is dangerous.

I would shake his hand, despite the fact that I don't care for the man. This is not hypocrisy, but simply one man shaking hands with another, which I was always told was a respectful thing to do upon meeting someone.

I would shake his hand and tell him how deeply grateful I am for his self-sacrifice, dedication, and service. And I would tell him to go win that war!!! (oh, and I might mention that he really ought to protect the US border a lot more and that I wish that I had the fitness discipline that he does and that I love the way he walks and that I'm behind him and that I bring his name before the Lord daily....not exactly in that order or in quite those words but...basically we are blessed to have him.)

I'm not really inclined to believe you.
However, to answer the question: I would shake his hand. I may not be happy with allot of what he's doing right now, but I still think he's been a good president for the most part.
And I know I'll be getting allot of thumbs-down from the libs on this board, so bring 'em on!

Bush doesnt even deserve the spit from my mouth.
I would go to the ball and snag whatever memorabilia I could muster.
Im not pro bush but I am pro democracy, and I respect the white house ideal. So a pen here or the invite there would be a nice little memory for me
