Its like when the dufus next door beats you at chess, and you're sure it was dumb luck. Then he does it again, and again he's not smart enough to have done it, and yet he did. So you're thinking maybe this is one of those Rain Man things where the dumb guy memorizes the phone book but can't read. Or something. Or maybe one of those Forrest Gump things where he's always in the right place at the right time, who knows how. Then he beats you again.
It never occurs to you that the dufus next door is actually smarter than you.

When the dufus next door makes mistake after mistake and then tries to explain that he was thinking of checkers when he was making his move, it makes you wonder if he is playing with all his pieces. Any relationship betwwen WMD's and no WMD's, 400 billion for Senior drugs and 580 billion after submitting a budget is purely coincidental. Sorry about that, a dufus is a dufus.
