Pretty much sums up what's going on in this administration! |
In the interest of equal time, we might note:
“You can fool some of the people all the time, and those are the ones you want to concentrate on.”
-George W. Bush
Also instructive: there is no evidence linking the above quote to either Lincoln or P.T.Barnum, to whom it is also often attributed. All of us are fooled some of the time.

^^^ Heh. Sounds like Bukowski was cribbing from William Butler Yeats (The Second Coming):

Are full of passionate intensity."
