Serial

Pile enough crap onto a situation and the human brain just shuts down and can't seem to fathom it. Like when you find out your kindly old uncle who you've always thought highly of is a pedophile priest heroin addict with mob connections and the world's largest Bazooka Joe comic collection. You hear the words but the scale just slips by.

George and his Junta do that to a lot of people. Foot-in-mouth disease, lieing pig fucker, priviledged daddy's boy, draft dodger, corporate thief, business failure, arrogant bastard, coke fiend, alcoholic, puppet. Can you feel the brain just glazing over? You read and register each one but by the time you finish the list, the first ones have just sort of disappeared and the rest will soon follow. So you think of the guy as "messed up". Well, we all feel messed up at times. We can gloss that, right? No, this guy defies our sensibilities. He goes so far beyond fuck-up.

Feel free to use that as a talking point with any Bush supporters. Accuse them of letting their brains shut down. Offer to take them to a psychologist.
