Proof positive that a Yale education is no guarantee of a nimble intellect

The Ugly Truth About the President

The transcript of the President’s latest mishap with a microphone reveals the undeniable fact that Bush is an imbecile. You know it, I know it and the American people know it. But everyone is afraid to say it. They say it privately, but people are afraid of saying it publicly because you will be branded as a liberal, elite, intellectual snob. But believe me, you don’t have to be an intellectual to see how painfully stupid our president is.

Watching Our Glorious and Benevolent Leader, I can’t help but wonder what 51 million American voters saw in the man in 2004. Are the American sheeple so undemanding, so easy to propagandize and manipulate, and yes, so stupid that they would actually vote for a man so ignorant and boorish that he makes a ham sandwich look like a Nobel Prize laureate? Uh…do I even need to answer that question??

It’s often been said (usually right here) that Americans get exactly the quality of representation they deserve. Sadly, that theorem is being proved virtually on a daily basis. If nothing else, Our Glorious and Benevolent Leader is representative of our national lack of intellectual agility and our stunning inability to demand a leader who is intelligent, articulate, and equipped to effectively represent American interests. It would appear that collectively we’re too stupid and self-absorbed to do anything but settle for a knuckle-dragging troglodyte in the White House…because that’s exaclty what we have.

If someone is this ignorant, they’re usually embarrassed and try not to talk much. But this guy is so dumb he has no idea how dumb he is. This sounds like a conversation you might have with a child, a mentally challenged child. Johnny, do you know how big Russia is? How about China?

This would all be unfortunate if George was your dentist, or worse yet, your accountant. But he is the leader of the free world. This man makes life or death decisions every day. If you say you’re not scared about that, you’re lying.

Would you let him do the books for your business? Would you trust your company in his hands for eight years? (No matter how Republican you are, you know you just said no to that question.) Would you trust him to be your kids’ guidance counselor and take his advice seriously? If your kids were in the Army and he was their field commander, would you feel good about putting their lives in his hands?

Come on, no one is crazy enough to say yes to that. Yet, he has all of our lives in his hands. The emperor has no clothes. The emperor has no clothes. It’s about time someone in the mainstream media said it.

Let’s face facts, shall we? Our Glorious and Benevolent Leader, the most powerful man in the world, the man with his finger on the metaphorical nuclear trigger, is a complete and total intellectuall blank slate- tabula rasa with The Bomb. If that doesn’t scare the Hell out of you, you’re either not paying attention or you’re a Fort Bend County Republican.

The Democrats for a long time have felt embarrassed about pointing out the obvious. The emperor has no brain. This is what I can’t understand about the Democrats, they’re always playing patty cakes while the Republicans are ripping their face off. John Kerry should have stood at the lectern during the debates and pointed to George Bush and said, “The leader of this country has to be the best and the brightest. If any of you think that he is the best and the brightest America has to offer, go ahead and vote for him!”

The theory is that people would be turned off by that. The theory assumes that people are also idiots and they love their cohorts. That is simply not true. Everyone understands that they have a friend they’d like to go fishing with and a friend they can trust to look after their affairs - and they’re not necessarily the same guy. And that your fishing buddy might not be a great choice for President of the United States of America.

I’ve often heard it said that people hire people that they like…and perhaps Our Glorious and Benevolent Leader’s advantage is that he does work hard to present himself as a likable “regular guy”. That’s all well and good, except that there is absolutely nothing “regular guy” about the man. Our Glorious and Benevolent Leader is a patrician who, in the words of Ann Richards, “was born with a silver foot in his mouth”. He is so lightly regarded by Democrats in Texas that Molly Ivins wrote a book about him called “Shrub”. This is not a President who will go down in history as revered for the breadth and depth of his intellectual agility, for there is none to revere.

It gives me no great pleasure to call a sitting President an idiot, a f——-g moron who couldn’t spell “cat” if you spotted him the “C” and the “A”. We should be able to be proud of the man we’ve elected as our leader. We should be confident in his ability to care for our country and the office he was elected to in an intelligent and prudent fashion. We shouldn’t have to worry about being embarrassed by the man’s boorishness and complete lack of class and dignity.

It’s time to WAKE UP AND SMELL THE CAT LITTER, America. Our President is a complete, total, f——-g idiot. And 51% of y’all voted for him. Who’s the moron now? Nice going, eh??

Still glad you voted Republican??
