It's time for more fancy book learnin'!

That's right boys and girls, it's time for another installment of 'Let's Learn About...' This time let's learn about Woodrow Wilson!
Woodrow Wilson was our nation's 28th President. He was also our nation's first female President and he was the first President to be an unrepentant Presbyterian. Wilson was a Democrat who hailed from Staunton, VA. Staunton's other claim to fame is---hang on, Staunton Virginia has no other claim to fame.

President Wilson suffered from a hair related affliction most of his life, it was called 'White Boy Afro' disease. He had one of the worst white boy afros in the history of mankind and that's why he insisted he always be photographed and or illustrated while wearing a top hat. Except for those times when he wasn't. Wilson was known to share his feminine wiles with just about any man who bought him a sarsaparilla or a root beer float. And since 'safe sex' back in those days meant screwing inside a bank vault on top of piles of money, President Wilson got pregnant pretty often. Some of his famous offsping include Wilson Phillips,
Luke, but not Owen, Wilson, Dennis the Menace's neighbor Mr. Wilson, Wilson the volleyball from that Tom Hanks movie "Stranded!," and the black dude from the original Mod Squad.
Upon leaving the White House after his years of being President were over Wilson wandered the rural midwest searching for the meaning of life. He caught a nasty cold in Davenport, Iowa and he shunned that state for the rest of his life. He hitchhiked his way across the USA finally settling in Hollywood, CA. It was there he invented modern skeet shooting, the polio vaccine, and rock and roll music. He also took up writing for television and he came up with the idea for the short lived CBS detective show Tequila & Bonetti.
Wilson died tragically in 1974. He perished after a grueling 16 hour Texas chainsaw death match against a young Steven Spielberg. His final words were reputed to be something special and noteworthy but no one bothered to write them down so they've been lost forever. Wilson was a great President, a pioneer, a skank who slept around, and a good bowler. His mark on this country is like a stain on a table cloth that won't come out even after you bleach it forty something times. And that's all you need to know about Woodrow Wilson.

(Don't forget kids, if your teachers ask where you got all your facts about President Woodrow Wilson, you tell 'em your old pal Dr. Monkey gave them to you! 'Bye now.)

Somehow I always pictured him as a slutty skank. Turns out I was right!

My political science and history teachers totally glossed over all this stuff. I feel so cheated now!

Wow. I'm a political junkie and I never knew this stuff. I love reading the biographies of our presidents and somehow none of this info has ever made it into any of the bios I've read. Just goes to show the PC bias that exists in all our textbooks.

Tequila and Bonetti? Damn, you dug deep for this one.

The Tom Hanks movie with Wilson the volleyball is "Castaway", not "Stranded".

Wow Irie, I'm honored you created a blogger profle just so you could tell me something I already know. You see, my humor deprived "friend"
I was making a joke. If you go back and read this post you'll find most all of what I wrote about Woodrow Wilson is a joke and the bit about the Tom Hanks movie continues the joke. How about you stop wasting your trying to stamp out all humor and you use that time to get a fucking clue.

And the truth about Woodrow Wilson is even more heinous! Read Lies My Teacher Told Me. (Not to imply that this isn't the truth or anything.
