Hi Frank,
I must admit that I could not vote for Bush when he allowed Saddam H. to be left in charge of Iraq. Hitler was not allowed to be left in charge of Germany after that engagement.
I have heard that Bush fought in WW2, but I guess no lesson was learned. The stupidity of some of our high up officials really do surprise me.
--------------------------
On a lighter note the stupidity of Forrest Gump is funny:
The day finally arrived: Forrest Gump dies and goes to Heaven. He is met
at the Pearly Gates by Saint Peter himself. The gates are closed,
however,and Forrest approaches the gatekeeper.
Saint Peter says, "Well, Forrest, it's certainly good to see you. We have
heard a lot about you. I must inform you that the place is filling up
fast, and we've been administering an entrance examination for everyone.
The tests are fairly short, but you need to pass before you can get into
Heaven."
Forrest responds, "It shore is good to be here Saint Peter. I was looking
forward to this. Nobody ever told me about any entrance exams. Shore
hope the test ain't too hard; life was a big enough test as it was."
Saint Peter goes on, "Yes, I know Forrest. But, the test I have for you
is only three questions. Here is the first: What days of the week begin
with the letter 'T'? Second, how many seconds are there in a year?
Third, what is God's first name?"
Forrest goes away to think the questions over. He returns the next day
and goes up to Saint Peter to try to answer the exam questions. Saint
Peter waves him up and asks, "Now that you have had a chance to think the
questions over, tell me your answers."
Forrest says, "Well, the first one, -how many days of the week begin with
the letter 'T'? Shucks, that one's easy; that'd be Today and Tomorrow."
The saint's eyes open wide and he exclaims, "Forrest, that's not
what I was thinking, but... you do have a point, and I guess I didn't
specify, so I give you credit for that answer."
"How about the next one," says Saint Peter, "how many seconds in a
year?"
"Now that one's harder," says Forrest. "But, I thunk and thunk about
that, and I guess the only answer with twelve seconds in a year?"
Forrest says, "Shucks, there gotta be twelve: January second, February
second, March second....." "Hold it," interrupts Saint Peter. "I see
where you're going with it. And I guess I see your point, though that
wasn't quite what I had in mind. I'll give you credit for that one too."
"Let's go on with the next and final question," says Saint Peter, "Can
you tell me God's first name?"
Forrest says, "Well shore, I know God's first name. Everbody probly
knows it. It's Howard."
"Howard?" asks Saint Peter. "What makes you think it's 'Howard'?"
Forrest answers: "It's in the prayer." "The prayer?" asks Saint Peter,
"which prayer?" "The Lord's Prayer," responds Forrest: "Our Father, who
art in heaven, Howard be thy name...."
