Bush's winning strategy: keep it simple, focused (My title: Is Bush stupid or smart?

It is surprising that scholars such as Hess and Greenstein have such a favorable view of Bush. As highly educated intellectuals, they might be expected to look down upon a former Texas governor who did not excel in school and who is often shockingly inarticulate.

What a journalistic snob!!! Forgot to add in my post that Sara Fritz is of course a liberal journalist from the St. Petersburg Pravda.

" It was not until recently, when the president set out to build support for a U.S. attack on Iraq, that some skeptics began to suggest that the younger Bush could eclipse his father as a national leader. "

The author's an idiot.

Based on those criteria, these "highly educated" intellectuals (as opposed to the poorly educated variety!) should have been even more dissapproving of Gore, a divinty school dropout with no postgraduate degrees!

Bush is the best president of my lifetime. No, he's not a genius (though he is smart), and that's all to the better. He represents the common sense and wisdom that most regular Americans have. I've never felt more comfortable with a president in my life.

Ahh...just what I needed at breakfast...a pukey limo lib and her catty diatribe.

"What a journalistic snob!!! "...

(?)

Re-read the original; it IS surprising that anyone speaking for "a liberal think tank" would admit that GWB is out in front of his opposition.

The usual liberal blather is all about his last slip of the tongue.

Imagine this:

"It is surprising that scholars such as Hess and Greenstein have such a favorable view of Gore. As highly educated intellectuals, they might be expected to look down upon a former Tennessee senator who flunked out of divinity school and who is often shockingly uninformed."

[J. L. Chamberlain]

Bush is the best president of my lifetime.

Either you're a teenager with a wife and three children or you have a very short memory! I'm guessing it's the later and you've simply forgotten that Ronald Reagan is the best president of your lifetime.

Bush was made to seem smart running against Al Gore. Thats why hes the president. Pretty smart tactic by the guys behind the gals, behind the gays, behind the guys. Otherwise he would have lost the election. Bush was simply the best choice running against a moron. Maybe next election the real people in charge in the U.S. will give us better candidates to vote for since we're the masses the great unwashed. They do have to give us someone to vote for otherwise the shadow gov't would be obvious even to those that don't want to know theres a shadow gov't.

Yes, faceing the reality that 1984 is here now, is a bit much to take and would do some serious messing with someones lifestyle.

"The one thing everyman fears is the unknown. When presented this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of well being granted to them by World Government. " -- Henry Kissinger, Amiens, France, 1991

"We are not going to achieve a new world order without paying for it in blood as well as in words and money," warned Arthur Schlesinger Jr, in the July/August 1995 issue of Foreign Affairs.

"Socialism has a bad name in America, and no amount of wishful thinking on the part of the left is going to change that.... The words Economic Democracy are an adequate and effective replacement." Derek Shearer cited in Reason 1982

Your moniker is appropriate. Sounds like you've been sucking on a "hosepipe."

It's time to adjust your tin-foil beanie. I think it's too tight.

Anyone notice the LIES in this piece?
That Bush would be committing an act
of "unprovoked [aggression](brackets
mine) on Iraq" if we attack. That the
War On Terror & tax cuts have caused
Bush to "abandon his campaign pledge
of prescription drugs for seniors"...
oh brother! The President has done no
such thing & it's Daschle's dastardly
Dems who loused up everything.

[CIB-173RDABN]

"...unprovoked act of American aggression."

Yeah, Iraq was just sitting around minding its own business when big bad Americans came in and destroyed all their chemical and biological weapons.

The political landscape is littered with the failures of people who underestimated George W. Bush.

Add Sara Fritz to that list.

[roses of sharon]

Exactly.

Unprovoked? Nonsense. The Clinton Admin. had regime change as a policy.

And the prescripton bill that has enough votes to pass in sitting on Daschole's desk.

It is a bill that covers ONLY those who really need it, because 77% of seniors already have coverage of prescriptions.

[txrangerette]

Thanks for noticing the LIES.

So, you don't sense anything strange about the contest of son of Bush and a certified moron. I remember the conversations here during the primarys. If you don't think someone(somewhere) is laughing at the drones in the collective as the fools they are, then you've been assimilated too.

The Fed. Gov't Workers Union actually run the country anyway not the politicians. What their leaders are for happens what they are not for, don't happen, almost univerally.
