From the ETv website:
"Israeli researchers have discovered the region of the brain responsible for understanding sarcasm. If that region of the brain is not functioning properly, the researchers found that subjects could only understand the literal meaning of another person's words. The results of the study were published in the May issue of the journal 'Neuropsychology.'
The study's co-author, Simone Shamay-Tsoory of the University of Haifa, told 'Forbes,' 'People with prefrontal brain damage suffer from difficulties in understanding other people's mental states, and they lack empathy. Therefore, they can't understand what the speaker really is talking about, and get only the literal meaning.' "
So, that's what's wrong with GWB. And I'm not just being sarcastic either.
