Bush doesn't know what "the internets" is.
Which might explain why he referred to it in the plural form. He said there were rumors he was bringing back the draft out there "on the internets". Which I suppose is a step up from the "dark dungeons of the internet", but still. We tech people tend to have ZERO patience for people who can't even wield the basic terminology.

So, ya know, I guess that means he lost the geek vote.

1. So few of our pundits et al have anything to say about the effect of the
internet on this situation.

2. I think it's more correct to say...
...Bush doesn't know what the Internets are.

"The Internets. You know, each Internet has a page with nekkid wimmen and sometimes they sell stuff so that poor people can afford to live, like on the E-bay Internets. I heard my daughter was talking about nekkid parties on the Internets."

3. I wonder if he thinks people can have sex over the internet.
Okay, now I need a shower.
