Dumbed Down Down



This entry from the WashingtonTimes.com gave me a good laugh:

I guess when you're president, you have to speak to your base.

Chuck: Yeah, key word "dim" ;-)

Brooke: If BO keeps losing independents, all he'll have is his base with their tingly legs.

Debbie: I thought he had a few of them, but yes, all very young. I'd rather have a little gravitas on my side, but then, BO and I don't agree on anything else, so I'm not surprised.
