*Apparently the Iraq debacle was not enough to make people realize that the
President of the United States was not an omniscient being who had a secret
plan that, although it may look like it's incredibly stupid to mere mortals
like you and me, in reality was brilliant and will solve all our problems.
But maybe the current Iran clusterfuck will convince them that the
president, even if he's a Republican, is a bipedal hominid just like we
are. *

*Remember when just 100 days ago when our Dear Leader insisted he would
accept nothing less than the unconditional surrender of Iran and regime
change? Now all we see is the President of the United States humiliating
himself by begging the Iranians to please please please reopen the Strait
of Hormuz. *
