The Republican Party did a nationwide search for the dumbest party member—and they found Gerald Ford.

I actually met him with a student group when he was still a Congressman and he talked with us for close to an hour.

The man was totally brain dead. I completely believe those rumors that he had head injuries from his football days at Michigan.

I had a roommate whose MOS was 'destabilizing foreign governments'. He returned to the first non-elected president in the history of our country.

He became something of an expert in the fall of Nixon. One day he was pontificating on the subject 'everything they did to Nixon was exactly step-by-step what the Army trained us to do to overthrow a foreign leader, step by step by step.'

'By God', he declares, there's some Colonel in the Kremlin who's a General now because of this!!!'

When I quietly asked 'Freddy*, are you sure it was the Kremlin and not the Pentagon?' he got a very sober expression and very quiet.

He didn't talk to me after that for two weeks...

* not his real name!
