Beavis or Butthead?

Publius thinks Bush is more like Beavis than Butthead. I thought Mr. Bush's "Need some wood? Heheheheh" comment in the second debate was pure Butthead. And Mr. Bush's frequent "Uhhh's" are so Butthead. If you judge by the Bush cackle alone, it's a toss-up: The Bush laugh is a cross between the Beavis deranged giggle and the Butthead "huh huh huh" laugh.
But Publius has a point. Butthead is just a moron. Beavis is a demented moron. And Mr. Bush has had many moments of deranged behavior recently. Then there was that whole pretzel-choking incident. Very Beavis. At least Mr. Bush didn't set the pretzel aflame.

Daughter Jenna, though, is defintely more Butthead. Listen to the Bush twins' comedy routine during the RNC; Jenna kept emitting a dopey little "Huh huh huh" after her lame jokes. I found the laugh, and indeed the twins' whole routine, to be kind of endearing. I mean, it's touching to know that even with their educational opportunities and their family's millions of dollars and wide-ranging influence, the Bush twins are just average gals. Shallow and dopey, just like me. I can definitely relate to them more than I can the Kerry girls.

Classic Beavis and Butthead lines here.
And go here to listen to Beavis and Butthead laughing.
