Quote of the Day: The Lies of George W. Bush

"When I look back on the Bush years, I think of the lies. There were so many. Lies about the war and lies to cover up the lies about the war. Lies about torture and surveillance. Lies about Valerie Plame. Vice President Dick Cheney's lies, criminally prosecutable but for his chief of staff Scooter Libby's lies. I also think about the extraordinary and fundamentally cancerous expansion of executive power that led to violations of our laws and our principles."
—Dan Froomkin, in his final column for the Washington Post.

Think of the really really dumb kids.
Although Froomkin nails the heart of it, W. Bush and his cronies also stand for the proposition that "Even the dumbest kid in class/dumbest kid on the block can grow up to be president!"
You don't even have to be fluent in a single language.
