    Lol a little off topic but I love how Bush’s idiot mouth has ruined the “fool me once” idiom forever

      What happened, most likely, is he screwed it up because he realized he couldn’t say “shame on me” without it being a soundbite on every news outlet. Better to appear dumb than personally apologetic to a national tragedy.

        I dunno. Do you remember all the insane shit that came out of his mouth? He was born an idiot, he was groomed and allowed to be his idiot self, and he was handed the presidency as an idiot. His whole life was led as an idiot. I don’t think he had more foresight than the advisors and speech writers in the moment of answering the question.

        And look at the way he started the sentence: “there’s an old saying in Texas—maybe in Tennessee but probably in Texas—fool me once shame on…shame on you. F-…fool me…fool me can’t get fooled again.”

        The whole thing was coming out in slops and stutters before he even got to the idiom itself. Corporate media is pretty goddamn low down, but even they wouldn’t splice an incredibly well-known idiom to just repeat him saying “shame on me.”
