You've got lots of company. Actually, a trained chimpanzee is more intelligent than the one we have now. Come to think of it, there's more than just a passing resemblance......

I wasn't going to say anything on this, but whoever thinks Bush is smarter than John Kerry must be even dumber than Bush. Not only did Kerry do better in college (despite misguided claims to the contrary, Bush *did* have a C- average), but he's infinitely more articulate. It was this articulation that lost him the election as the American people didn't seem to feel they could listen to a man who didn't speak only in sound bites and talking points articulate an intelligent argument because apparently that would take more brainpower than a lot of people seem to be capable of. By comparison, Bush should be seen as simple by most, maybe even some of his former supporters. If I were Bush 41, I'd be ashamed of 43 - the worst (and most hollow) President EVER!
Oh, by the way... my IQ is 132. Yes, that would be top 5% and John Kerry is exponentially smarter than *I* am. Get a clue.

Could it be that we are in an age now where everything the President does is on live television, all over the cover of newspapers and we have news agencies that just love to scoop up dirt on the most powerful man in the world.
Was Washington, Lincoln, Eisenhower or Roosevelt doing the same things that Clinton was doing with Lewinski but just not getting caught or having it broadcast all over the world? Did they bumble though some of their speeches like Bush has a tendency to do?

It's the lazy person's way to just bash a President with talking points from the socialist party. Read a book, learn some actual facts and details, and then come back with specifics.
President Bush went to an Ivy League school, got good grades, and tested higher than John Kerry.
And since when did American society demand intelligence? It's heroes are professional wrestlers, actors and singers who didn't graduate high school, and vapid no-talents like Paris Hilton.

Bush is definitely not a president to be considered intelligent. I can't wait till we get a leader who can think on his feet instead of with them.

George Bush's IQ has been measured at 81 and he graduated from Yale with a C- average.
Bill Clinton is a Rodes Scholar and IQ has been measured at 156. Graduated Magna *** Laude.

Amen! Bill Clinton was pretty smart... reduced the deficit for the first time in 40 years... but could not keep his pants on!
Bush is a complete retard, however, and needs to be locked away for the rest of his life.

why should the president always take the blame, what's about the vice president, his adviser and congress and so on. This is no time to point finger, when you are pointing one finger remember 4 fingers coming back at you. What are you doing to change things around.
Always keep this in mind, penny does not make noise, it has to be more than one penny so, please leave my friend okay.

I'll bet your old enough to remember at least 1 or maybe 2 presidents!

I agree. We need an intelligent and compassionate President.
