34. I tell ya...
Glib, contemptuous, ignorant, incurious...

When I see stuff like this, it makes me wonder how on earth 54 million Americans voted for him in 2004. It boggles the mind.

I have long felt that every person who voted for Bush in 2004 should be rounded up and forced to do 200 hours of community service. The ones who voted for him in 2000, I give a little bit of a pass because there is a chance they may not have fully understood the foolishness they were about to unleash on the world. But the '04 voters - those are the ones I want to see picking up trash and working as elementary school crossing guards.
