This "dumb" guy got elected President twice, and has continually stymied any attempt by the Democrats to derail the war effort.
For a dumb guy, he sure seems to come out on top often.
GWB has made a political life out of the "we are smarter than you" crowd underestimating him. While I would readily admit that I do not believe GWB has the intelligience to grasp every facet of an issue to a degree that some like Clinton did, he is also not weighted with it. He sees things in black and white, and acts accordingly.
The war in Iraq will be his legacy. You ask me, 20 years from now, this war will not look "dumb" at all.
Not saying that I agree with him, but I think he has run circles around all those Dems and the media who continually portray him as a nitwit.
