What I'm trying to figure out is where the line is drawn between masively stupid and too retarded to be put in jail. When my dog tries to eat on of the wastepaper basket, I get made but I realize that punishing him would be meaningless because he's not smart enough to realize what he's done wrong or the how what he does effects himself or others around him. I know that if he eats something dangerous, it can hurt or kill him.
Here's the thing, the puppy in question is president. Of course things are going to go downhill fast, as we saw in the 60% of the time vacation time in 2000, demoting top terrorism experts, not doing shit to stop 9/11, not using 9/11 to rally the world against the threat of governmentally independent militant extremist organizations, screwing the pooch in Afghanistan, lying to get into Iraq, wiretapping, etc. Obviously he should be removed from office immediately, but I'm trying to figure out if he belongs in prison or with special care people for mentally handicapped people. It's a fine line, and often special needs people are sent to prison, despite having a clear disability.
