Ladies and gentlemen: President Gomer Pyle.

Tully Mars

Anyone catch his press conference the other day. One minute he's asking a reporter where he's getting his prediction of $4 a gallon and gas, says something to the effect of "well, that news to me." Then a couple minutes later he says he's been busy "ya know working on things like gas prices."

Maybe they should do a study to see if early onset Alzheimer's and being a really, really poor POTUS are some how related.

I can't believe the military used to let this guy fly it's jets.

His courage was never in question, to be sure.

Ha! You saw Olbermann, too.

Tully Mars

Yeah, I get Olbermann off my Canadian sat. system but I also actually sat through the whole thing on CNN earlier in the day. Listening to him rationalize why the Telecom bill needs passing was almost as insane.

If you listen to Bush you just about have to conclude he's borderline MPD.

Nah. He's monumentally stupid, that's all. People with dissociative identity disorder can have smart personalities. Either Bush has a whole village of idiots, or he's just a moron who happens to be president.

How embarrassing it must be for those that voted for him, especially twice.

Tully Mars

I spent a couple days driving through Texas last fall, I believe I found the village of which you speak.


I used to think he just couldn't be stupid and have been a military pilot. I mean I know family connections and all. But all the connections in the world won't get you to pass the flight checks. I got my single engine private ticket years ago and it's not something you can just front your way through. Now I don't know what to make of him. It's like you can watch him age and drop IQ points all at the same time.

Tully, that means that the only option is the bad option. I've coined what I call the Bush Paradox: one such as Bush is either massively stupid or massively corrupt. Either he's a puppet for people, or he knowingly is doing all these horrible things.

If you're right and he wasn't able to bypass the difficult test to get into a cockpit... that means he's well on his way to Hitler part 2.

Plan9

It never quite sinks in... even on the way out.

He had flight time, so?

What ever... that leaves us with an ol' good news bad news situation. The good news is he's done in less then 11 months. The bad news is no one knows how long it will take to dig out of the hole Bush and Co. have dug.
