A LOOK BACK AT THE MILLENNIUM

This morning, I was reflecting on how lucky we all are to have seen the dawn of a new millennium. Most humans never lived to see a new one, after all.

Moments later, a friend sent me the above and below clips of George W. Bush speaking.

While I was watching it, I stood at the edge of truly appreciating what humans in the year 3000 will think of humans in the year 2000.

They'll look back at these clips of the first person that the most powerful country on the planet elected to be its leader.

And they will feel smug and intellectually superior, secure in the belief that any society that elected George W. Bush as its leader must have been profoundly retarded.
