Icon from President Illiterate's May 31 press conference

From today's press debacle conference: here's Bush explaining the putative falsity of reports of widespread abuse of detainees in America's military prisons.

Not only do the people who report abuse "hate America," they are:

"People that had been trained in some instances to disassemble."

Then with his best, smuggest, chimp-like smirk:

"That means not tell the truth."

Wrong word, President Dumbshit. Actually, disassemble means to "take apart":

Main Entry: dis·as·sem·ble Pronunciation: "di-s&-'sem-b&l Function: verb transitive senses : to take apart intransitive senses 1 : to come apart 2 : DISPERSE, SCATTER - dis·as·sem·bly /-blE/ noun

The word he meant to use is "dissemble." That word means "to hide under false appearance," or "conceal facts, intentions or feelings under pretense."
