There's funny funny, and then there's funny not funny
Froomkin quotes what he calls a "lame joke" from Inerrant Boy:
Ha ha.
Just as only Bush would joke about (back) missing WMDs—a lie that sent hundreds of Americans and thousands of Iraqis to their deaths—so too does Bush joke about the theft of American democracy.
And the audience lauggs and applauds.
What sick puppies.
"You're probably wondering how I got to be the family spokesman. (Laughter.)
"Well, we polled the family. And rumor has it, somewhere in our large family, the tiebreaking vote for tonight's speaker was cast by a fourth cousin by the name of Chad. (Laughter and applause.)
"While holding his son above the crib, Chad's father reports that the lad burped, and it sounded like, "George W." (Laughter.)
"Once again, my life was affected by a dangling chad. (Laughter and applause.)"
