Georgie, can you hear me now?

I'm guessing by now you all heard that our Idiot in Chief said in his last press conference that he hadn't heard that gas may hit $4 a gallon soon. He's admitted more than once that he lives in a bubble inside the White House and that he has to rely on his advisers to tell him what's going down, so we shouldn't have been surprised that he didn't have a clue as to what the hell is going down out here in the rest of the country. But it turns out that things are worse than we feared, there are many more things he has not heard about while living inside the White House. And here are just a few of them:

  • He hasn't heard that in war you get horrific facial injuries and you get scarred for life.

  • He hasn't heard that most homeless people would like to live in a home but they can't afford one.
  • He hasn't heard that you can't cut taxes and prosecute an illegal war and expect to balance the budget.
  • He hasn't heard that Jenna and Not Jenna have been riding the Twinkie train a tad too much.
  • He hasn't heard that the vast majority of Americans incomes have dropped significantly since he's been in office.
  • He has not heard that most people in this country want him out of office now.
  • He has not heard the latest Billy Bragg CD.
  • He hasn't heard that medical care for Iraqi and Afghan children is substandard.
  • He hasn't heard that the vast majority of people in this country want the wars on Iraq and Afghanistan to be over this second.
  • He has not heard that his war has made us less safe and that our country is now viewed in a negative light across the planet.
  • He has not heard that limbs lost in war do not magically grow back.
Hang on, maybe he has heard all that stuff and he's just pretending that he hasn't. Maybe he's heard all that stuff all along and he just doesn't give a shit.

Snad said...

Yep: last line. Remember "Now, watch this swing"?

Mnmom said...

It's all of the above. He's just a dink. A rich, greedy, stupid, inhuman dink.

dguzman said...

I often wonder whether he is pretending to believe all his own bullshit or he actually does believe it. Either way, the guy is sub-human.

Mauigirl said...

I go with what Fairlane calls him - a sociopath, in complete denial.

Great post.

By the way, here on Maui where I am vacationing, gas is well over $4 a gallon except for the very cheapest grade.

you really are an idiot, aren't you?

Life As I Know It Now said...

he is a sociopath. he tortured animals as a child. he laughed while people in Texas on death row pleaded for another chance. he just doesn't care if you or I suffer because he is rich and in his bubble and soon will be on his little island away from all us masses.

He hasn't heard a f*cking thing, because the greatest sign of ignorance is a complete and utter lack of willingness to listen to anything.

The ultimate intractable ignorance.

Dr. Monkey Von Monkerstein said...

D Cap-Yeah, that seems logical.

Snad-That line ranks right up there with "Let them eat cake."

MNMom-That about covers it.

Dguzman-I agree. He's also inhuman.

Maui-Thanks for letting us know you are on vacation.

John T-You got your pronouns mixed up you dumb ass, you wrote "you" when you meant "he."

Liberality-He is the epitome of callous.

Fran-You're right of course.
