[I'm a Republican and I voted for Bush, but thank goodness I'll never be in a position where I have to vote for him again. Bush is an idiot and it shows at all levels of his administration.]
What does it say about the judgment of someone who votes for such an obvious idiot?
Or was Bush intelligent until 2000 but became stupid later?
Another possibility exists: President Bush's opponents continue to call him dumb until gullible people believe it.

This reminds me in an eerie way of the people described in THIS excellent article:

So if Cheney did go, who would move in succession..Hastert?

let's see, I could have either voted for John Kerry or Bush..hmm..
I don't have to say or believe anything I hear about Bush from others, he makes the case himself every time he opens his mouth or entertains a foreign dignitary.

Yeah, you go with that.
I see that rather than refute my previous statements about Bush, you choose to engage in ad hominem attacks.

YOU said: "Bush is an idiot and it shows at all levels of his administration"
===
Do you consider THIS "rational, logical" discussion of the issues?
You sound exactly like the people in the article I mentioned in my earlier post.
"The premise follows a scheme previously found most often on talk radio programs: a liberal activist calls a conservative radio host, such as Rush Limbaugh or Laura Ingraham, and delivers the line: Ive been voting Republican for 30 years, but Ive finally had it and Im not voting this year. Or my favorite: Im a Reagan Republican, but Im fed up and voting for John Kerry. (Because that is what Reagan Republicans would do, vote for John Kerry.) At this point, the host usually asks a couple of questions and it becomes painfully obvious that the supposed Reagan Republican has probably never voted for anyone left of Michael Dukakis. "

It is most certainly NOT a fact. It is YOUR OPINION.
Repeating that "Bush is an idiot" only makes it clearer and clearer that perhaps you don't belong in this forum.

"I don't have to say or believe anything I hear about Bush from others, he makes the case himself every time he opens his mouth or entertains a foreign dignitary."
Then you give a link to what others say about him!
Go to WhiteHouse.Gov and you can find unedited video and transcripts. I think he does an excellent job. Sometimes I wish he would respond to stupid or disrespectful questions by saying "that is stupid," or "It's not your place to talk the President in that manner." In his shoes, I might do that - and regret it later.

It's piece in a British newspaper. Have a look at the link.
I agree with the rest of what you wrote.

"
They believe that only the sacrifice of one or more of the big beasts of the jungle, such as Cheney or Donald Rumsfeld, the defence secretary, will convince voters that Bush understands the need for a fresh start."
That no surprise, coming from a pro-terrorist
British opinion rag like the
Times Online.
ICM (Poll of British people)
"
ICM Research interviewed a random sample of 1,000 adults aged 18+ by telephone on 20-21st April, 2002. Interviews were conducted across the country and the results have been weighted to the profile of all adults.

Q3. In the dispute in the Middle East between Israel and the Palestinians, from what you have seen and heard about the conflict which of the two do you sympathise with more, Israel or the Palestinians?"
Israel 14%
Palestine 28%
Both 14%
Neither 23%
Don't know 20%

So the candy-ass GOPers in the House and Senate want the president to dump his key players because they can't get re-elected on their own merits, and they think dumping Rummy or Big Dick will mean more votes for them? Yeah...that's a strategy to go with. Exactly right - These weak-kneed GOPers simply need to stand up and fight back on the DEM's / MSM - They need to stand shoulder to shoulder with our CIC / SecDef on the WOT / Iraq, they need to tout our robust economic success....they need to take the issue of high gas prices to the DEMs pointing out the facts that 30 years of wrong-headed environmental policies have costs!..we are bearing those costs at the pump today.

"Well, I stated a fact. Bush is an idiot."
"There were 16 errors in the simultaneous interpretation of Bush's speech, including a missing section that was filled in later. "
The interpreter made mistakes. Simultaneous interpreting is not easy. But why call Bush an idiot? The mistakes were not his.
Can you find an American source for your opinions?

I've already stated my thoughts about the man. As for the link I provided, Roland does not offer his own thoughts on the matter. He did however translate several articles from other sources relating to how the meeting was perceived in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong.
Of course, the protest that was allowed by an ET reporter was not broadcasted in China. If there were any competence among those handling this visit by Hu Jintao, none of these mistakes would have even taken place.

I agree. Name these GOPers who want Chaney to go. Too bad about them. They have done nothing to inspire the confidence of the public. Chaney is the best VP we ever had and Condi has pro-abortion baggage that cannot be disregarded. Let's show the integrity and support our President and VP.

"The interpreter made mistakes. Simultaneous interpreting is not easy. But why call Bush an idiot? The mistakes were not his."
The interpreter made mistakes. The officials doing background checks on attending journalists made mistakes. The official announcing the name of the Chinese National Anthem made mistakes. Bush himself made a huge mistake by grabbing the Chinese President in the manner he did.
The entire visit was completely fumbled.
Can you find an American source for your opinions?"
My opinions are not dictated by others. As for citing the mistakes this administration made while hosting the Chinese President, what makes the difference where they come from? If the US administration didn't recognize the mistakes they were making, what makes you think other AMericans would pick up on it either?
To: ChessExpert
Good point. The only idiots i know of are those like me who continue to send money and support those who do not represent me. I have to admit , the argument that , ya we are bad but the dems are worse is wearing thin. Bush is inarticulate and he has a pitiful media response team . I steam when he refuses to crush these dwarfs that attack him. He is no idiot . He and his team have done a remarkable job . It is easy to forget what kind of shape we were in after 911 . I think he is dead wrong on his immigration position , mainly because he has no idea how it impacts city and state services , not to mention the emerging middle class. However i am glad he is where he is.

Yes, yes and yes...........
What makes this "theory", ha, ha, so plausible is the fact, that when Vice-President Agnew was found to have taken payoffs (while a governor, I believe).........full bore, to the hilt, ______to the wall attack by the big liberal media, but, when President Clinton was found to have taken payoffs (also, while a governor, I believe) the sounds of silence, and, of............crickets.
Yet another perfect example of the double standard, hypocritical, biased, lefist, lying socialist MSM.
