Gary Hart was Redwood!

W and Jeb were Tumbler and Tripper!

That must have been in Bush 41's day. Looks like Bush 43 changed it when he got the job himself: Link

McCain: "Phoenix". Yeah, that guy just keeps coming back.

Obama has an awesome code name. Bush as "Tumbler" is funny as well.

The Pope as "Halo" is not terrible creative, though.

A few in this list just don't ring true. "Steel Magnolias" seems to have too many syllables to be something you would want an agent to be saying into a microphone under times of duress.

Plus Barack and Michelle Obama's codenames are pretty similar-sounding.

Looks like John Kerry has problems keeping his wad, and the Prophet of Truth must have been based on Pope John Paul II.

Yeah, I was under the impression that radio code names exist so there's absolutely no question who you're talking about. The idea is that it's a quick, simple word that won't easily be mistaken for some other name/word.

Security issues aside, that is.

Only thing different, I wouldn't call George H. W. Bush Sheepskin. His name would be Capt'n Bran.

These were their codenames when they were alive.

"Renegade" may mean deserter instead of rebel. Still sounds cool as hell tho. Barack O'Renegade kicks ass and takes shiat from no-one.

It couldn't be because he works in the oil industry. Nah, must be because he has a number of kids.

/Wouldn't that make Romney "Driller"?

Yeah, somebody has a sense of humor and knows their acronyms.

Also, anyone else think it's ironic that the Obamas have 'R' - same as the Reagans?

"Backseat, Angler" should be treated as one codename.

not the first to say it, but this list is bullshi. code names are short, clear sounding terms so they are easilly recognized and identified over radio.
