| Bush is an idiot... ...some of you have already established this, yet list no facts to back it up. So here's your chance....instead of just saying OUR President is a moron/idiot/etc....back it up with something. Let's hear it.  |

| Re: Bush is an idiot... Well, sometimes I cringe to hear/watch him search for words in an impromptu anouncement. On the other hand, I thought his delivery of his 911 speach to the nation was the best in recent memory. |

Well if vocabulary, diction and eloquence are any measure of intelligence, Bush makes the most convicing argument against himself. |

| Re: Bush is an idiot... how about his grades were paid for in college and he still managed to fail out.
not good enough, how about he was a coke head in college.
still not good enough, his daughters are coke heads.
want an actual political one. he said we'd be in Iraq for what 6 months (not positive if that was the original time frame). we've been there how long? how many times has he said he's pulling the troops out? He should have just started it off by saying "I'm finishing what my father started and its gonna take awhile" I would have atleast a little respect for him then.

When did he fly fighter jets?
I never said he's dumb, just an idiot.
and what the hell does my degree have to do with anything. I passed the first time through.

| Re: Bush is an idiot... "how about his grades were paid for in college and he still managed to fail out."
You have zero evidence that any grades were paid for, and like was pointed out he did graduate.
"not good enough, how about he was a coke head in college."
Some evidence he was not an angel on alcohol and maybe drugs. That applies to a lot of people. And an idiot would not have quit (lots don't)
"still not good enough, his daughters are coke heads."
Running low on evidence so you slam his family, come on you are a better man than that.

| Re: Bush is an idiot... never heard of the flying part. They always fail to mention he was in the Air National Guard, they usually say just National Guard. Looked it up, it was an F-102.
didn't know this one "Bush had a reputation for being an "Animal House" member of his fraternity, once infamously putting his tongue into the rear end of a hog to prove that hogs do in fact squeal when stimulated in a sensitive area of their bodies"
