Does Bush has any credibility with you?

I can understand what you're saying and I actually do agree. IMO, the problem is that I don't think there are any reliable polls because pollsters can word anything to sway people to give a response. (That's why I had a lot of fun with a pollster who called my home one evening - I gave really inconsistent answers and could sense the frustration of the person on the other end.)

Move on .org, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Crissy Mathews, Harry Reid, Dan Rather, etc.

Those folks vs Bush. I guess I will take Bush's credibility and trust him.

Bush isn't really smart enough to be truly deceptive.

Stupid is the more apt description.

Stupid enough to be President of the USA. You probably meant in your opinion he makes some stupid decisions.

I really don't think you meant what you said. I don't think you are that stupid.

He is president in spite of his lack of intellect. Can you think of another US president with less brains that W? I can't.

Perhaps you believe as Snipe does. W is a genius who simply suffers from word-sequencing issues.

LOL. Of all the reasons to dislike or disagree with Bush, the excuse that he is without brain power strikes me as the most cowardly and uninformed. It's the ultimate ostrich-head-in-the-sand moment.

To say nothing of the fact that he's 3-1 in national elections ... what does that say about you and yours?

If Snipe thinks he is a genius he suffers from the same lack of judgement as those who think he is stupid.

Lack of intellect does not equate to someone being stupid. Quite frankly that is the problem with liberal types. They worship intelligence as they define it. Some of us call it elitism. Some things in life are just simple and best.

The glory of god is intelligence. I think he meant wisdom, which aren't the same.

The Clintons are living proof that intelligence doesn't equate to wisdom.

Tex thinks Bush is bright? How surprising.

If you think having an opinion that Bush is not too bright is cowardly or uninformed, then your head in not in the sand, it is up your rear.

3-1? Hasn't he run for president twice?

Let me explain this carefully Tex, so you wee little brain can grasp it: I didn't say Bush is stupidest person in the world. I said he could very well be the stupidest US president ever. Huge difference.

Call me crazy, but I think we should have pretty high standards for the most powerful office in the world. Like being able to pronounce "nuclear".

Do you think Bush is wise? Seriously.
