...as the ultimate expression of ineptitude?

out to lunch

Not in touch with the real world, crazy; also, inattentive. For example, If he believes that story, he's really out to lunch, or Anne hasn't heard a word you said--she's out to lunch. This expression transfers a temporary physical absence for the purpose of eating to a temporary or permanent mental absence.

Sounds a lot like this guy:

Please, oh please, let this catch on.

5. Probably doesn't talk like that when a camera is not around
Doesn't need the Karl Rove fabricated fake Texas accent then.
