Is the glaring and stunning stupidity of the RWNJ interviewer.

I’m paraphrasing, fake Wolforwitz (sp?) “if we have no universal health care, crumbling infrastructure at home, at least we had a nice war. No matter that it has been a complete failure for 20 years, going back to my administration”.

The only words the interviewer can get in is “uh ha, uh ha”.

The fact that he fell for it twice is icing on the cake.

Reminds me of Giuliani with Borat. The former mayor really thought he was going to bang Borat’s 16 year old daughter, laying on the bed with his hands down his pants in a feeble attempt to raise old glory. Besides being a disgusting old pervert, another example of glaring an stunning stupidity.

Nobody must watch NewsmaxTV. It never even got to Paul "Spit" Wolfowitz that he had been the subject of the first hoax? How is that possible, even allowing for the ur-stupidity of the Newsmax stooges. Go, Yes Men!

If there were not videos, I might not believe it. As I was reading the article, I kept thinking... No... Come on, no. But then, there it is
