1. I read this in Editorials

so it is not a dupe in this forum.

I also got into a fight on the Slate message boards.

Amazing the contortions the RW goes through in order to evade acknowledgement of *'s shortcomings, and project them onto Clinton.

3. To me the word that best describes Bush is CUNNING

I think he out maneuvers his opponents with cunning. With his cunning, he is able to turn his lack of knowledge about a particular subject into an amusing irrelevancy...and when all else fails, he, cunningly plays on Americans' patriotism with a declaration of how good and decent Americans are and they can always COUNT ON HIM TO FIGHT FOR THEM!....He is just such a sleaze....Uuugghhh!

4. Bush coasted on his "good looks"

come on - his eyes are practically touching and he has chimp lips. He looks exactly like what he is - a f***ing moron.

6. I've been saying this forever!

"What's more, calling the president a cretin absolves him of responsibility."
"Finally, elitist condescension, however merited, helps cement Bush's bond to the masses."

This is what we have to be careful of, because this is why people find him "likable." I refuse to call him stupid ever again.
