A Thesaurus of Earthly Delights
Joe Wilson, last seen trying to turn Congress into Parliament — apparently not all European traditions are bad — either rivals Homer Simpson for stupidity, or fears that his constituents do:
You know, I’m really disappointed, and I actually agree with Vice President Cheney that the President is dithering. And I actually had to look up what “dithering” meant, and it’s “indecisive.” And that’s what the President is being.
Joe might also want to look up blockhead, clod, cretin, dimwit, dingbat, dolt, dope, dork, dullard, dumbbell, dummy, dunce, dunderhead, fool, idiot, ignoramus, imbecile, jughead, lamebrain, moron, nitwit, pea brain, and simpleton. Because we’re sure we’ll get around to using most of them to describe him in the months ahead.
Rep. Joe ‘You lie!’ Wilson: I needed to look up ‘dithering’ in the dictionary, but I still agree with Cheney [Think Progress]
I actually had to look up what “dithering” meant
you simply can not make this stuff up
GOP: Proving everyday that ignorance really is bliss.
today my sister sent me a health care rant from Krauthammer.
my sister
my reply was, you know. I have begged and pleaded and Im done. you want to read this shit fine. stop sending it to me.
just stop. you want to send me the daily maxine fine. but I get one more of these and I am blocking you.
@Jamie Sommers: If he’s typical GOP, then he probably thought “dithering” was something that involved a sex swing, wetsuits, and chickens used as dildos.
heh, just saw this.
In other disasters, we just saw the Avatar trailer.
heres the funniest part:
Delgo vs Avatar
make sure you click on the thumbnail images.
Delgo, as you may or may not know, was as the article point out the most disastrous wide opening in movie history.
but wait. its gets better. if you check out IMDB you will see if you scroll down that the Visual Effects Supervisor was, well, me.
to make it even stranger I did some early test work on Avatar.
in 1995. you read that right. 1995. I have an Avatar tshirt from 1995.
ps
that Grubb guy had nothing whatever to do with the effects. I have tried to get him to remove that credit but not that hard really.
one other small ps
the movie is not really THAT bad. to put it another way, Space Chimps (which came out about the same time) did not make more money because it was a better movie. it made more money because it was advertised. Delgo was not. at all. it was a independent production (the first fully independent CG film made in the US) and after the guy paid for the distribution there was no money for advertising. he just hoped people would see the poster and go in. bad call.
since I have already careened off topic
got and IPhone?

the scariest part of this is that apparently these people see Bush and Cheney as intellectuals.
