“The question before us…. is whether or not we, the people of the United States of America, are willing to turn our government over to a man of such clearly substandard qualifications?”

“Brad adds: Nothing is funnier than when people misspell “competent.” Nothing.”

Not true. My favourite is “Grammer”.

Also incorrect. It’s “eduction.”

Please continue.
The experiment requires that you continue.
It is absolutely essential that you continue.
You have no other choice, you must go on.

I always used to worry about the little needles on my meters when I’d zap the signal up to the top level.

Make sure the the probes are firmly attached to the subject.

Has anyone ever heard K-Drum speak in person? Smart money says he doesn’t, and a sine tone just emanates from his forehead.

I think Bush is Zippy’s evil twin Lippy incarnated into three dimensions.

Nah, he’s totally Mr. Toad (Bill Griffith’s version, that is; the Toad of Wind in the Willows is sort of likable).

“Are you boys building an Interocitor in there?”
————————
“Can you handle involuted matrix, Maimonides-conditioned, third-aspect numbers in the Cauchy sequence with simultaneous non-temporal involvement of the Fieschi manifold?”

“Maurice, I can do it and fry up a bunch of eggs to go with it at the same time,” I tell him. Then I look him right in the middle of the eye. “Maurice,” I say, “you’re working on a nullifier.”

He look at me like he take me serious for the first time. He pull a sheaf of papers out of his shirt, and sure enough he is working on a nullifier — a sweet one.

“This isn’t an ordinary nullifier,” Maurice points out, and I see that it ain’t. “What other nullifier can posit moral and ethical judgments? What other can set up and enforce categories? What other can really discern? This will be the only nullifier able to make full philosophical pronouncements. Can you help me finish it, Proconsul?”

See, when choosing a wingnut, it is also important to consider their ability to accelerate from 0 to Stupid, as well as the quality of their writing (rated on the Swank scale from Incoherent to Utter Gibberish).

Also, if you can, our resident trolls clearly should be rated on pie chart of some kind.

Shorter blogsforvictory: a picture is worth a thousand words, but I’m sayin’ those words, I’m just sayin’.

Given that Noonan is founder of blogs for Bush, I think we must credit Markie with the ability to find a candidate with clearly substandard qualifications and continue to support him after he proves he is not a quick study and is in fact ~~a competant President~~ the Worst President Ever.
