Cross-posted from previous thread, but I think this is important…

I just had a thought.

We all know that Chimpy McFlightsuit may very well be the stupidest human in the history of upright mobility.

After watching him strut across the flight deck of the USS Blowbrowniesthefuckup to announce Mission Accomplished, it occurred to me…

…Barbara Bush must be the stupidest organism in the history of time.

Say what you want about George Snr., but he’s a smart man. Descended from smart men. Evil as Satan, but smart. Like Satan.

You cross that gene pool with Babs and get Georgie Boy?

And this:

“Fool me once…shame on…shame on you. Ibugga won’t get fooled again!”

Bag of hammers, meet Barbara Bush.

You’ll be showing her around and making sure she doesn’t shit the furniture.
