Looks like ex-CIA official Milt Bearden thinks so... Poor Bush can't even help his own ally succeed. He's a dimwit.

Let's face it. He's not the sharpest knife in the drawer. We all know that he got into Yale and Harvard Business School because of his family connections. However, what I want to know is, how did he pass? I know that I'm going to get a lot of flack from the conservatives here, but consider these things. Before he applied for admission to Harvard Business School, he had applied for admission to the law school at the University of Texas at Austin, who turned him down. (Apparently, the standards of UT-Austin are higher than those of Harvard.) Also, he's ignorant about the world around him and is lacking in intellectual curiosity. On a visit to the US, the Welsh singer Charlotte Church had the chance to meet Bush. He asked her where she was from, and when she told him that she was from Wales, he asked her, "What state is that in?" She had to actually tell him that Wales is a small country that's next to England! Yeah, he's real presidential material!

Statistics show that very few American's have passports. My question is this, if you are an American and wish to fly between states do you need something similar to a passport to travel?

The UN is often blamed for not preventing many of the human caused tragedies of our time. But so, too, are individual nations often blamed.

Using as many actual cases you want, argue why in those cases the UN is to blame or specific nations and less so the UN, if at all, are to blame.

I will try to give the Best Answer to the person that gives a fact based (with sources), well-reasoned and fair (not full of vitriol) answer. But, if I am not available to, which I might not be, I ask the community to please help choose the Best Answer winner. Please give good consideration to your choice.

P.s. No, this is not school related.

The Republicans (especially the ones at the top) constantly talk about how poor people need to pull themselves up by the bootstraps, yet they're represented by the likes of George W. Bush, a spoiled rich kid whose father bought his way out of Vietnam and into Yale and Harvard Business School and who had the presidency handed to him on a silver platter in 2000 by his father's friends in the Supreme Court. If anything, don't you think that Bill Clinton better embodies the principle of pulling oneself up by the bootstraps? After all, he doesn't come from a wealthy family, and he actually EARNED his way to Georgetown, Oxford, and Yale Law School. Some may argue that he was a draft dodger, but at least he had a reason. He was a student, whereas Bushy Boy was able to avoid going to Vietnam simply because his dad got him into the Air National Guard, for which he didn't even bother showing up a good deal of the time.

"(Reuters) - U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman, a three-term Democrat now running as an independent candidate, leads the man who beat him in last week's primary vote by 12 points in a three-way race, a poll released on Thursday shows."

God bless copy & paste.

Gooooooooooooo Joe! I don't always agree with Joe, but you have to respect a man who does what he thinks is right no matter how unpopular it is.
