There's an old saying in Tennessee
—
I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee
—
that says,
fool
me
once
—
shame on
—
shame on you. You
fool
me, you can't get
fool
ed again.
Dubya attempting to co-opt Texas and Tennessee into his verbal wreckage. The saying he was trying to dredge up was "
Fool
me
once
, shame on you.
Fool
me twice, shame on me." Even better, Dubya was speaking at a literature magnet school. I'm sure it was a learning experience for the kids. East Literature Magnet School, Nashville, Tennessee, Sep. 17, 2002
