It's official. We are being led by the stupidest man to ever attain such

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

position of power since... uh, since...

I'm sorry I cannot think of a major leader of any country at any time throughout history that is as inept and uncouth as the man we are now obliged to call President.

Christ. I'd rather have the bagboy at the Publix leading us than this man.

At least he's polite.

[BrklynLiberal]

1. You are right. Add arrogance to his appealing features.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

4. I really wish I was not correct. I don't care what party he's associated

with, I used to think Johnson was a social idiot after the dog ears and scar episodes...

Johnson would look like a social Einstein compared to the moron in charge now.

[etherealtruth]

5. I'd agree with one change

"Add arrogance to his appealing features"

I'd use the word appalling instead of appealing O8)

[BrklynLiberal]

12. You are right. I stand corrected.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

21. Sigh. We all stay there from time to time.

[OldLeftieLawyer]

2. Rolling Stone

beat you to that impossibly obvious conclusion, Tom.

But, yeah, he's nothing but spoiled meat.

And his "good manners" are bullshit. Nothing but show.

[MSgt213]

3. What the hell is doing? Has the man lost his mind. Well that's a stupid

question. But there was no other way he could have handled this without grabbing him?

[Berry Cool]

6. Yeah, and I bet the bagboy at least asks "Paper or plastic?"

whereas this guy just goes ahead and does whatever he wants without consulting anyone who might disagree with him.

[saltpoint]

8. --and probably knows the differerence between paper and plastic.

Dubya has difficulty making basic distinctions, evidently.

Paper or plastic would be a toughie for him, I feel.

He stumbles on 'Citizen' or 'Terrorist' also.

[saltpoint]

7. The baggers at our grocery stores would also be an enormous

improvement over the incumbent.

I've got a pen handy if we want to start a few petitions.

Excellent idea.

[saltpoint]

9. On that photograph: That might be the only time I've ever seen Junior

pull anything to its left.

[rpannier]

10. I'm unfamiliar with this picture

Why is he grabbing his jacket?

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

14. He wasn't doing what Georgie wanted. He was about to go down

the wrong staircase from the podium.

[SheepyMcSheepster]

16. he grabbed him because

The Chinese president was heading down the wrong steps at the end of the event. So George, being the fast acting decisive individual that he is, quickly grabbed Hu Jinto's jacked to keep him from embarrassing himself.

there is a thread about it here http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x976164

11. I just got home. I see for the first time, Chimpy tugging

on the suit coat of Chinese President Hu Jintao.
Stupid I agree.
You know, given the background of Truman say, one might
expect a spectacle such as this.
Chimpy is born of wealth. WTF did Momma and Poppa do
to this child? Was he not trained in etiquette and social
behaviors that befit one of wealth and family heritage?
It is too much that he is a political moran. Does he have
to be such a complete and well rounded dolt?
Our pResident is Renaissance Moran.

[HamdenRice]

13. At least Truman was a habadasher ... he understood

not to yank on the sleeve of a fine suit.

[Cosmocat]

15. Sweet Jesus ...

The bar has been SO lowered for this clown ...

Imagine anyone of a dozen things this goofus has done this week, and Clinton having done it, and it would be front page news for the next 10 years ...

"I'm the decider ..."

[InkAddict]

17. Patriot Hero Commander/Decider-in-Chief saves

visiting Chinese leader from jumping off a very tall dais onto his tokhes! HaHa, Intro Please, then Strike Up The Band!

[Chomp]

18. Hilarious post Tom. KICK

[Gabi Hayes]

19. what are you, a COMmunist, or what? how DARE you?

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

20. LOL! You might want to check out the poll...

[Jack Rabbit]

22. Obligated to call President?

Not on your life. He lost the election in 2000 and I have always referred to him as Mr. Bush, unless I am calling him by something more suitable to his character and level of maturity, like Frat Boy, or his remarkably unique place in US history, like Commandeer-in-thief.

[driver8]

23. It looks like Hu is getting ready to open a can of shrubby whoop ass! n/t

[troubleinwinter]

24. He is an immature, ignorant pig. He shouldn't be permitted out.
