3. That is the argument my repuke friends used in 2000.

I would tell the they had better find a lot of smart people to work for them as well.

5. Ya, like " Brownie " Poppy and Kkkarl do all the real hiring and firing

[ocd liberal]

7. I don't think the people he chooses are that "good."

Michael Brown? Chertoff?

10. Good Old Boy Network, thats all they know at ShrubCo, team players

[glarius]

8. They're not good people, just smarter than him people! n/t

9. How can he know if they're "good", if he's not smart?

That's the problem with that argument - intellect isn't information accumulation. It's the ability to grasp and understand - these are two skills with which Bush has not been gifted.

11. John Walsh....America's Most Wanted

My choice for Homeland Security Director.John Walsh has developed keen
relationships with law enforcement across the world.Over 850 captures
indicates John Walsh is popular with the public and his persistence in
particular criminals has led to captures of bad guys on the run for 20
years, a very diligent and determined guy John is.
Meanwhile were stuck with Chertoff wow!!!A most inept group if I ever saw one,bush-brownie-chertoff.I personally cursed the Bush Crime family and wish misery and hardships on them.Is that a crime?

12. If it's wrong

then I don't want to be right

13. That was the media meme in 2000. Bush may be dull. But you'd

like to have a beer with him. Plus, he has Cheney. :puke:

[baldguy]

14. That's bullshit. No matter how good or smart the people under you are

You've got to be smart enough to know when they fuck up - and know what to do with (or to) them when they do.
