Bush is not an idiot, nor is he deep thinker. He's never claimed to be a genius, and his office doesn't require it. If it did Jimmy Carter would have been a great president instead of the national disgrace he turned out to be. George Bush is a man who understands the one or two Big Issues of our time, and about those issues he is absolutely certain-- all the ripping of robes and throwing of ashes in the world will not change his mind. Does it matter that he can't seem to put two words together that make sense? Look, President Clinton could talk the pants off of the Queen, but you couldn't believe a word he said. President Bush has the vocabulary and syntax of a seventh grader, but when he says he's about to take action, everyone knows he means it.
