I'm tired of conservative pundits saying "Obama is intelligent but...". How many gaffe's do you get before people decide you're a moron? He's not intelligent. He's ignorant, and he's stupid.
Obama is not stupid and he is not unintelligent.
He has spent his entire life plotting how to worm/finagle/weasle/conive/plot/strong-arm/work his way into the presidency.
He has no common working knowledge. He knows nothing of foreign policy, defense, economics, energy and ethics.
He is a power hungry lawyer who has spent his life as a political sctivist.
He’s not stupid, nor is he unintelligent. But, he is ignorant.
That is a sliding scale, depending upon whether you are a white male Christian Repulican, all the way to a lesbian feamle minority Wiccan Socialist, or someplace in between.
Example: Dan Quayle --> GWB --> Dennis Kucinich --> ... --> Maxine Waters --> Cindy Sheehan
