Darwin Award Candidate

One of my fave movie scenes is the one in Body Heat where Mickey Rourke tells William Hurt he isn’t smart enough to be a criminal. Now this (link).


Update: Eeuw, a Wiki page, with a link to the complete correspondence. Too bad he isn't important: he could go on Larry King.

Update to update: I just went and actually read the correspondence and man, it is hilarious. Squirrels and pigeons indeed.

So, uh, Buce – what does this tell you about the intellectual level of Republicans, the intellectual level of Republican legislative staffs, and the intellectual level of the Congressman who hired the guy.

Maybe he's the same guy who drafted George Bush's Iraq policy, Iran policy, UN diplomacy policy and tax policy.

I mean, when you think about it, it explains a lot.
