Boy George vs. George W.
Oh boy, the world's two most famous George's are neck deep in trouble these days, aren't they? Neither Boy George and George W. Bush probably would likely admit to any similarities, but alas, that's life. Let's see the scoreboard.
Boy George: Dressed like a woman. Now dresses like Uncle Fester.
George W: No cross-dressing tendencies. Yet.
Edge: the Boy gets the win for versatility.
Boy George: Career undone by drug use.
George W: Early drug use has no impact on career whatsoever. Go figure.
Edge: The prez wins by a nose.
Boy George: An entertaining interview subject with a clever ability to zing a fellow celebrity.
George W: A irritating and baffling interview subject with the clever ability to attract zingers from most celebrities.
Edge: Boy wins by a Hollywood mile.
Boy George: Trial for cocaine possession yesterday was postponed til later in the spring. The paparazzi waits patiently.
George W: No date set for a trial yet. The world waits patiently.
Edge: With an uncanny ability to manipulate the laws in his direction, the POTUS looks like a lock to avoid sharing a cell with Boy anytime soon.
