Bush is a prime example why the leader of the free world

[Cleita]

can't be the village idiot. I'd say Bush's I.Q. is somewhere between 90 and 100. Frying his brain with drugs and alcohol before he was forty didn't help. If he had been born an ordinary person, he would have been weeded out as presidential material before he got to high school. A person with no ambition or goals, he allowed himself to be propelled along a certain path until he landed where he is.

He is smart enough to know he can't really govern so he relies on others to tell him how. He has been surrounded by people, who know they couldn't be elected President themselves, but wanted the power to rule behind the scenes. The worst of these advisers are the religious ones because he wants to believe them. Whatever does whistle through that mostly empty space in his skull, probably makes him doubt many of the things he is told. That's why you get hints of his programming going awry when he isn't being closely monitored.

He says things like: it's better to be a dictator; or he has to fix the Social Security problem (subtle, but he's thinking the problem is for his cabal, not the country), or many of the other slips of tongue he makes. The information he is fed doesn't get processed into as a smooth lie as the others tell and he actually tells the truth without meaning to. Now this doesn't mean he couldn't have run for President anyway, but I don't think he would have been taken seriously, even as the son of another unpopular president without the Yale and Harvard credentials.

This is a problem with our education system. Universities should be prevented by law from allowing legacy admissions even large and prestigious universities like Yale and Harvard. Bush was turned down by other universities, so that's why he went to Yale. By allowing dim wit legacies into Yale, another more deserving student academically was probably turned down. This isn't right and look what we would have been spared. At least there was a good chance we would have been spared because among the PNAC vermin infesting our government not a single one of them has the charisma to run for President and get elected. They know that, too.

3. It's okay!!!

4. i have him about 80

i dont know why that number just been holding true. you are probably closer to being right. maybe it is the feel of 80 with the limited thinking over the years, ......or lack of thinking. his muscle has gotten awfully weak

[Cleita]

8. That's getting down to and close to Downs Syndrome, but

he's pretty close to that with the substance abuse.

9. lol lol it would bring it close to downs

and you know the silliness cleita, i think i had to bring it to 100, cause i concluded couldnt possible be that. lol. this is sad. but, ...isnt 100 average. he just seems below average. or is 110 average

that is funny

[Cleita]

10. I think the range for average is 90-110 if I remember

correctly. The sad thing is left or right, we do need above average in intellect Presidents. Even an evil one like Nixon, wouldn't do something he knew was bone stupid.

11. i believe

i truly believe.....it would behove us to have a president that like to use his brain. yes. that would be a good thing. lol

thanks for the laugh

6. Harvard and Yale's endowment

is so large, they do NOT turn down any deserving student. GeeDumbya is where he is right now because and only because of his family legacy. He's a well trained puppet who thinks he's in power, and as long as the powers behind him, the one's truly pulling the strings let him think that, they can manipulate him at will and continue on their evil way.

[Cleita]

7. My point is they should turn down the undeserving, even

the son of a President. :-)I'm glad to hear he didn't bump any deserving students.

Welcome to DU btw!
