"President" Dumbfuck: It has been glaringly obvious to me that our "president" is a dumbfuck, especially after his last "speech" and "press conference," during which he could barely choke out a correct English sentence and he evaded giving straight answers (which speaks to his character). I had predicted that "President" Dumbfuck's poll numbers would fall after his "speech" and "press conference," but overall his numbers stayed the same or even slightly increased.

So the question that the above "Boondocks" 'toon evokes is: Are a huge number of Americans in complete and total denial that their "president" is a dumbfuck, just as they are in denial that he and his team stole the 2000 election, that Al Gore, who won more than half a million more votes than did George W. Bush, is our legitimate, democratically elected president? (And we purport to be "democratizing" Iraq!)  Are these people just pretending that our "president" is not a national embarrassment because they don't want to have to deal with the fact that our "president" is a national embarrassment? A scarier question is this: Or is it that, after a steady diet of brain- and soul-wasting "reality" television and rampant consumerism and materialism, a huge number of Americans are unable to recognize that their "president" is a dumbfuck?

Whatever the case, it occurs to me that we Americans deserve whatever we get if we allow this dangerously stupid man another term behind the wheel. As "President" Dumbfuck himself once so wisely said: "There's an old saying...that says, fool me once, shame on -- shame on you. Fool me -- you can't get fooled again." (For those of you who believe that "President" Dumbfuck gave a great speech and performed wonderfully during his press conference earlier this month: The adage is "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.") Here is Ted Rall's vision of what it might look like if Americans are fooled twice: 

I don't think that it's much of an exaggeration, if it's an exaggeration at all.
