Pres. Bush is very s-m-r-t. I mean, s-m-a-r-t.

I was going to lay off the President for awhile but he makes it SO hard.

President Bush talks up his grade in Economics.

"You need to talk to economists," he answered when asked if there was a risk of recession in the US economy. "I think I got a B in Econ 101. "
Bush actually got a C-, according to his transcripts.

Now I'm not going to make fun of Bush misremembering his grade because I certainly can't remember too many of my individual grades. And he did say that he "thinks" he got a B.

But here's his next sentence:
"I got an A however in keeping taxes low, and being fiscally responsible with the people's money."
Yeah. Right. Apparently he deserves a D in facing reality.

I imagine Bush would also give himself an A in improving Iraq, an A in being a "uniter" and an A in not flushing America's prestige down the toilet. He's a great student in his own mind.

Your president may be a lunkhead, but, man, ya'll elected him. Just like we elected Prime Minister Meg A. Lomaniac. We, the people are the real idiots because, instead of thinking for ourselves, we vote for the dude who first scares the hell out of us and then promises to make "it" all better. We never stop to consider all the ramifications of "it" and the better-making thereof (how's that for convoluted grammar?)

I would think that with a name like "Meg A. Lomaniac" someone would have figured out not to vote for him. But then again, your Canadian ways frighten and confuse me.

We had to elect Bush. Otherwise the terrorists win. I know because Bush and Cheney said so.

Nah - he used the pseudonym "Harper" to win the election (which also should have been a tip-off) and we had to vote for him because he acted like he was friends with Bush and we didn't want ya'll mad at us anymore.

It's funny how whenever someone gets elected that I don't like, I blame the incredibly stupid electorate for not being as smart as I am.
