N. A defense mechanism where the current administration uses psychological strategies brought into play by a deep rooted hate in the former President Bush's adminstration to cope with the reality that the current president's strategies are a failure. The Bush Defense mechanism becomes pathological because its persistent use leads to maladaptive behavior such that many begin to believe it is the former president's fault and the overall health of the nation is adversely affected. The purpose of the Bush Defence Mechanisms is to protect the Obama Adminstration from blame for current national problems and to provide a refuge from situations with which they cannot cope.
The White House on Tuesday struggled to explain how it was caught short on the unemployment figures, after promising the rate would not reach 8 percent in January.
“The previous administration did not disclose how deep the economic crisis was,” a spokesman said, in yet another attempt to use the Bush Defense.
The administration then tried to shift focus to looking forward at how the administration would prevent further erosion of the job market.
Obama promised back in January that with the stimulus passing, unemployment would probably peak at 8 percent late this year.
The current unemployment rate is 9.5 percent.

Get the Bush Defense mug.A defense used on occasion in a court of law. Based on the assumption that if someone is wearing Nikes, they run at abnormally fast speeds, thus allowing them to indeed appear to be in two places at once.
State Attorney: You expect us to believe this alabi of being home at that hour when our records show you had just arrived in Dallas?
Defense Attorney: Nike defense! Nike defense! My client was wearing Nikes Your Honor.

Get the Defund the police mug.Women/girls/chicks who absolutely must have a man in their lives at all times, regardless of how much of a loser said man is. Often times, the chicks who suffer from this can be seen going from one pathetic loser relationship to the next, almost as if they crave the chaos they are bringing into their lives (because their man cheats on them, beats them, steals from them, uses them, ect, ect)...but none of that matters...because they have to have a man, any man, at any cost, in their lives. As if they need a "D" to suckle at night for their own security purposes.

"That chick is dick-dependent...you can treat her anyway you want, don't worry about it!"
