"I really don't know how much (Bush) knows about the country," Rockefeller said. "I've read books on it and otherwise researched it. I think that's pretty much what you have to do to begin to understand a culture."

Typical of a Rockefeller, Kennedy or tenured professor. I'm sure some of his best friends are despots, too. What he understands about culture amounts to nothing. What George W. Bush understands about PEOPLE trumps the Snob Mob every time.

We also might point out that, unlike Mr. Rockefeller, Mr. Bush has a graduate degree. But JDR the Fourth still knows all 'bout those nomadic Iraqis!
