In
Ambling Into History, Frank Bruni writes, among other things, that our president has never heard of
Leonardo DiCaprio.
I can forgive him for not knowing who
Leonardo DiCaprio is. Hell, I wish
I didn't know who he was.
And good 'ol Dubya, he's a world leader. He doesn't need to keep track of such fluff as teen idols and Hollywood heart-throbs. I would rather that he keep his mind on leading the country, keeping up with world affairs, our foreign policy.
There's
much more important stuff for Dubya to know. Like, the fact that
there are Blacks in Brazil!!
Yeah, I can forgive him for not knowing who Leonardo DiCaprio is... but I've got to draw the line
somewhere.Not knowing if there are Blacks in Brazil displays a level of ignorance about the world that is totally unacceptable for a world leader.
At least, I would have thought so.
How did this guy get elected? Oh, wait -- he
didn't! Now I remember!
