Uh-oh, our president is hearing voices!
I can remember him saying he doesn't read the newspapers. Man, talk about a FLIIIIIP FLOOOOP?

<<snip>>
"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."

3. What's best for Don Rumsfeld?

Well there's an admission if I ever heard one.

It doesn't matter what is best for the military or the country. What matters is poor ol' Donny Rumsfeld.

Sorta like what matters is that all his friends, ya know his "base," get what they want. Screw the rest of us.

4. Poor little monkies. He's giving them a bad image.
And while I'm on that subject, I feel sorry for the poor damn elephants. They didn't have a say so in the GOPisswads picking them as their representative. RUN elephants RUN!

6. The voice of G*d speaks to him from a plant in the Oval office
Funny, though, it sounds a lot like Cheney's voice.

7. He doesn't hear "people" he hears "voices"
completely discounts the actual real humans who are speaking to him. That's what I got out of that comment.

Our "king" is a real "fuckwad". :(

9. The "decider' is hearing voices. Isn't there some sort of Amendment that
says he can be considered unfit to "lead?" If President Bartlett used it in the West Wing, perhaps our "decider' can use it, too.

Oh wait... we'd get

It's really a lose-lose situation either way!

10. I think he means he's heard the 60+% of the people who disagree w/him...
Though the humor in his statement, as always, comes through loud and clear. :7
