Would someone please explain to me what Bill Clinton's "genius" is? So far as I can tell, it was solely a talent for deception and for corruption!
Otherwise, a largely flattering portrait of President Bush.
Regards, Ivan

Morris still uses the wrong words to describe the Clintoon. Instead of genius, he should say, "Clintoon's shrewd criminal behavior."

Exactly what I thought. The man is so stupid he got caught with his pants down. Literally. There's no way someone that stupid is a genius. Well, a genius at lying.

Dick Morris was tongue-in-cheek with the Clinton genius thing. He has a very dry sense of humor. No worries.

Maybe toe in cheek.

I've said this so many times, in fact every time I hear anyone talk about Clinton's "genius" or whatever. If Clinton was such a genius then why did he, when he finally got to where he wanted to be for most of his life, screw it up all by his own deliberate actions? I like W's brand of intelligence, it's in the results.

Ann Coulter had a great chapter in her book on how to libs- "Conservatives are stupid and liberals are smart"...they don't need any facts to back up this argument, the constant repetition of this mantra is what makes it correct. Also, since slick willie was a Rhodes scholar at Oxford, he must be smart (the British upper class is not the only home of inbred twits)...what I wouldn't give to see a debate between the left's Bill and the right's Bill (Buckley)
"If liberals were prevented from ever again calling Republicans dumb, they would be robbed of half their arguments. To be sure, they would still have "racist," "fascist," "homophobe," "ugly," and a few other highly nuanced arguments in the quiver. But the loss of "dumb" would nearly cripple them." -- Ann Coulter, P. 121
"This is how six-year-olds argue: They call everything "stupid." The left's primary argument is the angry reaction of a helpless child deprived of the ability to mount logical counterarguments. Someday we will turn to the New York Times editorial page and find the Newspaper of Record denouncing President Bush for being a 'penis-head.'" -- Ann Coulter, P. 121
"'Stupid' means one thing: "threatening to the interests of the Democratic Party." The more Conservative the Republican, the more vicious and hysterical the attacks on his intelligence will be." -- Ann Coulter, P. 125
"Most preposterously, the New York Times reported -- as if it were news -- "With his grades and college boards, Mr. Bush might not have been admitted [to Yale] if he had applied just a few years later." "Might not have been admitted"? What on earth does that mean? Bush also "might not have been admitted" if he had dropped out of high school and become a Gangsta Rapper. It so galls Northeastern liberals that Republican George Bush went to an Ivy League school, they can't resist publicly fantasizing about an alternative universe in which Yale rejects him." -- Ann Coulter, P. 136

>>>Would someone please explain to me what Bill Clinton's "genius" is?What genius? LOL Bill Clinton, aka, der schlickmeister, aka, Slick Willie.... has never faced the responsibilities in his life. As POTUS, he allowed UBL to carry out terrorist attacks and Saddam Hussein to lie and cheat throughout the 1990`s. Remember, The Clinton's loathed the military and under Willie's leadership defense spending dropped from 4.8% of GDP to 3.0%. The lowest since just prior to the start of WWII.
Bill Clinton remains a lying, phony scumbag.
OTOH, President Bush has showed some remarkable leadership since 9-11 and has faced the challenges of international terrorism with real courage, character and steadfast determination.

His son, however, appeared almost eerily calm as war drew nearer.He is engulfed with the peace that passes all understanding. We need to continue to pray.

Bill Clinton may have a high IQ--but he has NO wisdom. Bush asks for prayers for wisdom, above all else. That's not only smart. It is very wise indeed.
Also--as the Apostle Paul is wont to remind us, God's wisdom seems like folly to the ungodly. I think that's why so many liberals love to point the finger at Bush for being foolish, when it should be wagged right in front of their own stuck-up noses!
