The Idiocy.

Or, more correctly...

THE IDIOCY

Let us collect the idiocy of the world, and pick it apart for our own amusement.

Yeah, a hard smack round the ear would have done.

How is this for idiocy?

Ugh.

I don`t think it could be applied fully - Bush can`t really force other countries to stop persecuting Americans for war crimes.

But he can try... and he will... because he's just that darn stupid!

And speaking of how stupid bush is I think he should start trying to win a Darwin Award :twisted:

I originally read this topic as "theodicy," as in, a philosophical work written to explain/describe the nature of God. It sounds exactly like "The Odyssey" when you say it.

I guess that's a certain kind of idiocy, though. :wink:

I have been doing too much thinking and not enough working on my final Kant term paper.

This world, mostly the US gov't scares me.

Heh.

Invest in good gun and some self-defence lessons? ^_^

Then you can start a rebellion.

The scariest part about Bush for me is how much of a character he is. That, and that alone, is the determining factor in our elections, at least presidential ones: who has the higher CHA score.

Gee Dubya was born in Connecticut, and while the family moved back to Texas when he was two, he was educated nearly entirely in the Northeast: high school at Andover Academy (Massachusetts), Yale (Connecticut) and Harvard (Massachusetts). A couple of my professors were in similar situations and don't retain nearly the accent he does. Whaaat?

Also, if you can find any of the speeches he gave for the gubernatorial race he lost in Texas in whatever year, you'll find they don't have ridiculous lines like "is our children learning," "misunderestimate," etc in them. They are actually fairly literate and well-spoken. When he lost that race, PR did a complete overhaul on him and turned him into the down-to-earth red-blooded American guy many people consider him today. (This is based on what my PR major friend was telling me about some project or other he was doing, or some reading he did for a class. So--this bit is along the lines of hearsay, I guess, but only because I'm too tired and distracted to have Google verify it for me.)

WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT, AMERICA.

Anyway, I don't know where I was going with this post except that I'm glad I'm moving to Sweden. :P
