in comedy, there’s two kinds of jokes: There’s funny because it’s ridiculous, and funny because it’s true. Bush talks funny and often sounds like he’s an idiot. Making fun of him in that way is funny because it’s true. He also made a comment that he doesn’t read newspaper accounts of what he’s up to, which people took to mean that he doesn’t read, which, combined with the way he talks, is also funny because it’s true. However, that joke became the base point of truth, and now people are telling jokes that he is an idiot and that he really doesn’t read which only work because they’re funny because they’re true. Except they’re not true, so they’re not funny. But if the joke’s well-delivered than it’ll still get a laugh and whatever. It’s just laziness. But this laziness has spread and infested everyone in the world’s small little struggling under-developed pea of a brain, and they’re so used to falling back on the “truth” that Bush is an idiot that now they’re making complete and utter asses of themselves because they can’t snap the hell out of it and put two synapses together long enough to realize what the hell is going on in the world.Bah.
Rather. They say MoveOn, but they never do.
