I'm sorry - that's off-topic.

Shrub may well be alien, but we're searching for extra-terrestrial
*intelligence*.

The problem with Dumbya is not his intelligence. It is his reckless
disregard. Basically, a loose cannon, he cannot understand that not
everything has a military solution. The danger is that he will get
another mandate and pile up more provocations on top of his current
fiasco ( such as adding Iran to the destabilisation of the middle
east as some sources have leaked ). He may end up igniting the
entire region out of pure cussedness and inability to accept his
mistakes honestly.

Anyone that thinks there's any real difference between tweedlejohn
and tweedlegeorge is dumber than he is.

No. I do not expect Kerry to be reckless. That is a major difference
and critical difference just there.

Kerry Supporter: "Honey, that George Bush is a real Hitler. Let's
elect a hands-on peasant butcher from Vietnam, okay? One that has
voted for pro-war bills more often the Bush has. A member of the
Upper Class who is never going to change anything that will endanger
his priveleges."

Certainly nobody that has even the slightest chance of being elected
in the U.S. *republic* is going to come from the priviledged class.
Were you not paying attention or are you under the delusion that the
U.S. is a 'grass roots' democracy? You have a choice to (s)elect
your dictator every four years..

take it.. and consider carefully which person makes the scariest
dictator. (P.S. the general problem with dictatorships is that they
work to maintain the power of the dictator, not the good of the
public, except in the rare case of 'benevolent' dictatorships where
there is a recognition of 'nobless oblige' ).

My favorite Shrub quote:

"The French don't even have a *word* for 'entrepreneur'!"

A classic!

And he probably still can't figure out what is wrong with it...
declaring that if he had it to say over again, he would say it
*exactly* the same way.. ;-)

That *is* his defense for every error he commits.. that he is either
too arrogant or too dim to see his errors.

  Is his arrogance the result of his intellectual deficiency?

Does it matter?
