History Channel had a great program on the Scopes trial...they had a great qutoe from HL Menken about William Jennings Bryan that struck me as perfectly appropriate for the current Chimp in Chief:

One somehow pities him, despite his so palpable imbecilities. It is a tragedy, indeed, to begin life as a hero and to end it as a buffoon. But let no one, laughing at him, underestimate the magic that lies in his black, malignant eye, his frayed but still eloquent voice. He can shake and inflame these poor ignoramuses as no other man among us can shake and inflame them, and he is desperately eager to order the charge.

Perfect, eh?
