George W. Bush, the man

I probably shouldn't do this so close to the weekend, as I don't want to spoil it, but here's a question.

If you dislike (or loathe) Bush, just what is it about him, his background, his character, his "intellect" that leads you to feel that way?

Perhaps it will be therapeautic, and it might be enlightening to our conservative friends who frequent the place.

And to those who excuse Bush and are willing to part ways with reality in order to support him whatever he does, no matter what the consequences to the people of this country and the countries standing in the world, please explain what it is about Bush, the man, that so appeals to you.

There ya go. Apparently, Bush is just unstoppable.

Not a word about his being vapid, inarticulate, a liar, incredibly arrogant, mean-spirited, vain, distainfuly of ordinary people, etc.

And putting Bush in the same sentence as Clinton? I think I'm going to hurl.

Seriously, Bush can't even carry Clinton's luggage when it comes to political skill.

Clinton, whether he was working a room or fielding reporters questions, could speak in his own words and never come across as dodging the question or avoiding the issue. He would more often be criticized for going on at too much length and demonstrating the depths of his knowledge of the issues.

Bush on the other hand can't utter a word without it being written on a piece of paper in front, on a teleprompter, or beamed into an earpiece.

Being able to yuk it up with a crowd isn't exactly a rare skill. I myself have been known to be able to work a room pretty impressively.

Clinton could stand in front of a huge crowd with the entire world watching him and wing it when aides loaded the wrong speech into the teleprompter, and no one could even tell.

Bush would be simply unable to even begin.

There is no comparison whatsoever between the two.

One is the real thing, Bush is nothing special, no more than a glorified used car salesman.
