Ah, it's so enlightening to get a refresher on our current President, the person who promised to restore "honor and dignity" to the White House. It's even more enlightening to remember that this type of callous footage wasn't new. Bush was just as callous and creepy right before he announced the attack on Iraq. This footage shows him pumping his fist and declaring "I feel good" and was captured just before he declared war on Iraq and reigned death and destruction on a country that did not (and could not have) attack(ed) the United States. But as a dignified and serious person, Bush spent time preparing for this national announcement displaying all the dignity and seriousness we have come to expect from him.

Yup, that's our Bush.

Nevertheless, even today, years after the catastrophic failure of Bush, the MSM continues to show how ready they are to help Americans judge the character of the Presidential candidates. These pundits are the same people who proved that they are ready, willing and able to help psychopaths place their fingers on the red button because their candidates are more "authentic" than any Democrat could be. And we now know they have learned nothing from the Bush years.

Karl is very, very happy with the Pavlovian response of the punditry because they make his job very easy.

Your turn now.
