3. Dufuss!

What do you expect from a dufuss pretending to be President of the USA? His definition of success is … (drum roll).. Success. I’m surprised that the real power in this administration, Cheney, allows him to say anything at all.

4. Thankfully he won't be president much longer.

Then we can measure the breathtaking depth of his failure.
