"I hear the voices, and I read the front page and I know the speculation," the president said. "But I'm the decider, and I decide what's best. And what's best is for Don Rumsfeld to remain as the secretary of defense."


I'm not sure what it is about this quote that strikes me as so hillarious. Is it the use of the word 'Decider' instead of saying 'I make the decision'? Is it the 'You're not the boss of me' childish petulance? Or just the bone stupidity of keeping Rumsfeld on?

"I hear the voices" does it for me, as well as the admission he only reads the front page.

Somebody needs to hunt up a link for Jon Stewart's "The Decider"Comic Book bit. Dammit, this is a comic oriented, liberal slanted board. I should not have to bring this up.

mburbank~ Yes, okay, fine, I do know what you meant, but why is it not possible for you to get through a paragraph without making all the words cry?

How can someone who obviously thinks so much of their ideas have so little respect for expressing them? How can someone who so yearns to be taken seriously make so little effort?!
