debtridden said:So, quick questions:
If one were to ask for a either "yes" or "no" answer, without explanations (not unlike the "gut feeling" we have for programs), what would your answers be to these questions (having said that, feel free to expound):
1. Do you think George Bush is stupid?
2. Do you think the current administration is delusional?
My answers would be yes to both questions.
I personally think Bush is an absolute idiot, and I'm not one to harp on academic achievement. I just don't get the feeling--the confidence, the conviction--that my Commander-in-Chief--can, on his own, analyze even a newspaper clipping better than I can. I'm not saying I'm smarter than most people, I'm just saying I think I'm smarter than our President. I mean, in every way. I mean, I really think I am smarter than George Bush. And as lousy a President I would be, I would be better than he is, one on one, without being surrounded by cronies.
And yes, I think at times members of the administration have appeared delusional (the press secretary comes to mind).
I guess as a EM program, I gut-feeling for George Bush would be: don't go there.
Yes - he isnt the brightest bulb but IMO I cant recall anyone either Dem or Republican who impressed me at all this last election. Kerry is a blathering *****.. and to add it all up he picked a Doctor hater as his running mate.
No - I dont think they are delusional, rather I think they are smart as a fox, not Bush per se but his people.. Think about how much they have gotten through that they wanted.. 2 Supreme court judges and even with all the missteps they still have a lot of support in the US.. perhaps not for the war but his overall approval rating is decent.
