the 30% of american that still support him? I think so but I'm not sure. Isn't he king of the idiots that don't like thinking on their own and follow a king's decisions without question?

President George W. Bush is the smartest man in the Republican party.
What I don't understand is why Republcans feel so insulted when I say this.

To paraphrase a wise American sage recently...
"Wise is as wise does."
I don't think there is a correlation between intellegence and making correct choices and sound decisions.
University degrees do little to prepare anyone for much of what is the real world out there. I didn't say none, I said little.
I think some decisions of Bush are pretty bone headed in spite of his obvious intelligence.
But then I thought the same about Clinton and especially about Carter and a few other democrat presidents, chief of whom would be FDR.
I think you can agree that his sky high support rating after 9/11 were composed of a great many emotional reactions, on both sides of the isle.
Those that still support the president do so out of conviction on certain issues and don't, I believe give him a pass on everything.
I don't place much stock in opinion polls anyway. I don't want a president that is a mere puppet to polls for sure.
And Bush is no puppet, regardless of what else you might say about him.

I think you are on to something. I think that the difference btwn him and his voters is more apparent now. What I noticed was shortly after the 2004 "election" King George appeared to be more of that oil money, ivy league (though barely made it), east coast, mama's boy (papa favors the other son) that he really is and not the cowboy, anti-intellectual, born again christian, village idiot that his voters seem to fall in love with. I am not saying he is a rocket scientist or anything ...what I am saying is that everything he sold himself on was a complete and total lie including how smart he actually is...pretty deceptive...

Bush is smarter.As much as I hate to admit this,the more I hear his supporters,the more I see some reason and intelligence in his words.

Yes, he does seem to have a king complex. I'm surprised that 30% still have faith in this man. He's had over 4 years to "fix" what's going on in Iraq. When the war began we were reassured it would be over within months. How many more thousands will have to die before people recognize it's a war we can't win?

I didn't need to read the rest of your question cause I already knew the answer was NO.
Oh he graduated from Yale alright.
Right after daddy literally built a new wing on campus. You guys are funny. And apparently MBA's don't mean much cause you guys are smart as rocks.

It would be best to learn how to form a logical sentence before attacking such lofty political discussions.

Definitely on the low end of the bell curve. That's what we get for putting voting booths in trailer parks.
