Equation reportedly presented to George Jr had only four vectors. The joke was that everyone knew to not confuse George Jr with facts and numbers.

George Jr is doing exactly what he does with any crisis. "A second plane has just struck the World Trade Center. America is under attack." So he sat for 15 minutes in a child's chair waiting for someone to tell him what to do. Seven years later, and still some don't get it. Even his own people subtly joke about how dumb George Jr really is. Some voters still don't get it.
