Translation: Please, republicans, don't fight us this time. Run someone that we know we can beat no matter how badly we screw up the publicity.

I think it's cute that someone thinks Dubbya is actually the one calling the shots.

Right.

Because "Dubbya" is a stupid monkey.

Except when he's an evil mastermind.

But then he's a stupid monkey again.

Until he's an evil mastermind again.

Evil masterminds almost always turn out to be stupid monkies. The opposite, however, is not always true.

I'm pretty sure if you looked up "stupid" in the dictionary, it would not say "See: Mastermind".

I would argue that thinking one can even be an evil mastermind would make one stupid.

My evidence? The People are waking up to who Bush really is --and they are turning away from him in droves.

...

While I might argue on a few cases, I would agree with your first point in general, but...

I don't see how your "evidence" proves it.

Because a truly smart President wouldn't have the support of only a third of the populace.

I hear this from the right, as if it's some kind of comeback. Stupid monkey yes, evil mastermind, hardly. Nobody fits that costume of straw.

He's not fit, nor ever was fit, to have any job more demanding than a City Council member of a podunk, one stoplight town. What's 'evil mastermind' about bolloxing every single thing he's ever done? Nobody seriously thinks he's an evil mastermind--at most a dim bulb frontman for a set of rather filth-encrusted ponces, such as Grover Norquist, Richard Scaife, and the CEOs of the larger DoD contractors. A dumb*ss who reacts like a child when someone wants his toys, yes, but to bring the word 'mind' into anything regarding Bush is like bringing the word 'values' into a conversation of Gary Bauer.

Back on it. Jeb Bush? Terry Schiavo...Terry Schiavo...does the GOP really want to revisit the situation that started their slide into the low-30s approval ratings?

I'm pretty sure that your "literal-ness" is as deliberate as my play-on-concepts. In your favor, it neither demonstrates that you are a mastermind nor a stupid monkey.

So, I'm wondering what Jeb will call himself. After all, Dubya is the "Decider" ;)

That's argueable. It presupposes three things:

A) People always know what's good for them
B) That people care more about the benefit of the country than themelf
C) That popularity is the important part of being president

I disagree with C, and wouldn't place money on A or B.

Hey, it's not my side that accuses him of being an evil mastermind.

It mostly demonstrates that I'm a cynical bastard, I think.

LOL

http://www.i-am-the-decider.com/

From: someone
Bush: 'I'm the decider' on Rumsfeld

"I listen to all voices, but mine is the final decision," he said. "And Don Rumsfeld is doing a fine job. He's not only transforming the military, he's fighting a war on terror. He's helping us fight a war on terror. I have strong confidence in Don Rumsfeld.

"I hear the voices, and I read the front page, and I know the speculation. But I'm the decider, and I decide what is best. And what's best is for Don Rumsfeld to remain as the secretary of defense."

Neither does my side. Try reading the post, Reitsuki; you've pulled out a strawman with the 'evil mastermind' phrase.

Nobody who watches closely and knows his history as a failed halfwit considers that he's really capable of 'masterminding' anything. He can maybe 'mastermind' a booger out of his nose, but only after a lot of trying and great risks to major arteries in his thigh.

You may not be the side that calls him that, but he has been called that, if not in so many words. No strawman there, just faaaar too long spent on Fark.com.

I don't think he is a stupid monkey or evil mastermind.

I believe he falls more in the line of evil, dim-witted, willing puppet to greedy corporate interests.

Actually, I think Jeb would make a far better president than his father, and certainly better than George. Granted, a rock could be a better president than a fucktard like GWB. I voted twice for Jeb for governor of Florida. He has been an excellent governor, and by comparison to the rest of his family he seems much more in touch with normal people and not a puppet for corruption. Granted, there is a difference between governor and president, and I would definitely not like to see any Bush ever in the Whitehouse again, but as far as presidential candidates go, Jeb would be tough to beat.

Do you realize that out of the last 26 years, there has been a George Bush in the White House for 18 of them? :eek:
