They support Kerry because they don't know who we fought in WWII. OK. Got it. And, the tail light on my trailer went bad because I ran out of baking powder and forgot to put it on the shopping list. I'd think the uneducated would cleave unto a president who, while standing next to the prime minister of one country, said he was from a different one. Or a president who, if you spun a globe with the names of the various countries removed, and asked if he could point out the locations of, say, 20 countries...couldn't. Just your opinion....certainly not fact though. "The only thing I know about Slovakia is what I learned first-hand from your foreign minister, who came to Texas."-To a Slovak journalist as quoted by Knight Ridder News Service, June 22, 1999. Bush's meeting was with Janez Drnovsek, the prime minister of Slovenia. ROFL!!!!!!!! Do you suppose your moron could've mustered the brain power to prepare for a state visit and know something his guest's country, or at the very least, know that the person he spent time with was the head honcho? Until he was appointed POTUS, Bush was probably the least traveled president of the 20th or 21st Century. He hadn't been anywhere outside the US except Mexico, I think, and that was only to get drunk and laid. Similar to Clintons experience prior to becoming POTUS. Clinton probably has the edge on blowjobs and getting laid though. Remeber that clinton dodged the draft by going to England.(back when avoiding going to veitnam was admirable)....and managed a war protest trip to Moscow at the same time Lucky for him...finding England and Russia on a map would have been difficult for him otherwise. ;-) Once again, d.f., Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar. And Bush was a Yale grad with an MBA. So? Bush got into Harvard because of connections So? Clinton went to Oxford and received draft deferments because of connections to influential people including a judge, the head of his local draft board, and a US senator. And lying his ass off to get the scholarship....based on the criteria Mr. Rhodes' Will contains four criteria by which prospective Rhodes Scholars are to be selected: 1.. literary and scholastic attainments; 2.. energy to use one's talents to the full, as exemplified by fondness for and success in sports; 3.. truth, courage, devotion to duty, sympathy for and protection of the weak, kindliness, unselfishness and fellowship; 4.. moral force of character and instincts to lead, and to take an interest in one's fellow beings. The Rhodes is more about being P.C than actual scholarship Seems as if yo uwould not qualify on any of those conditions enumerated, eh? What a good argument Harry. What do you expect from a bitter old man that has spend is life living off of other's earnings? |

Some sons and daughters of the wealthy do well for themselves and society despite their familial connections. Dubya has done well only because of his family's wealth and connections. I've never been able to understand why you righties are so much in love with Bush. He's an intellectual mouse, a man of no ideas, a terrible speaker, he lies constantly; he's a lousy father, a drunk, a cokehead, he's little more than a figurehead, and he's gotten this country into more trouble around the world and put it at more risk than any other president in the last 100 years. Yet none of you righties will even acknowledge he has serious shortcomings. |

I may not adhere to a conservative social agenda, but a conservative fiscal policy makes sense to me, but Bush has brought big government back. Not including security/defense items, spending has ground an average of over 10% per year, much of it deficit spending. The reasons for Iraq keep mutating. Bin Laden is still bin Missin', and the scandals make Slick Willie's administration look clean. Let's see, there is the WMD investigation and the Niger uranium forgeries, Cheney's Energy Task Force, the Plame Game, the Medicare Drug Scam ($400 billion becomes $540 billion and bribes for votes), Halliburton overcharges, the GAO investigating the White Houses' video news releases, the Chalabi Iran "spy ring", . . . http://www.newhouse.com/archive/mcquaid020404.html http://www.brookings.edu/gs/cps/light20030905.htm http://www.thecarpetbaggerreport.com...es/001421.html |

And Bush was a Yale grad with an MBA. Bush got into Yale as a "legacy admission": his daddy went there. It was a form of affirmative action. Not sure how he managed to get a Harvard MBA, but I suspect some of Bush I's money had a lot to do with it. Bush was referred to as a "legacy" by many while he was an undergrad at Yale. You guys are funny. If you think that a dummy could get a BA at Yale, an MBA at Harvard, own a professional baseball team, get elected and re-elected as governor of Texas and then elected as POTUS, then you are obviously the fools. You should try and get a college admissions counselor to sit down and talk to you sometime. Get him/her a little bit drunk. You'd be amazed at what goes on in the name of "legacy admissions", or when a wealthy potential donor is lurking behind the student under consideration. Or, even worse, to quote a counselor I speak to daily, "His grades were marginal, but the marching band needs brass and the kid's been playing trombone since he was 11." |

If, after doing so, you think Bush is in the same category, then you are even more of a dimwit than we originally thought. |

... Once again, d.f., Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar. And what has being a Rhodes Scholar got to do with being a leader? 1) Please find me 100 people who would be willing to say, on live television, that a candidate appeals to them because he's dumb. 2) It has nothing to do with leadership. It has everything to do with potential, and the ability to interact intelligently with people and cultures of all types. In case you haven't noticed, what the POTUS does ends up influencing a large part of the world. Even Slovenia, or Slovakia, or whatever. |

... Actually, archeologists use "Grecian" to refer to urns and stone columns. NOYB does not expose himself to input other than television, and a very limited selection of input in that genre. He would not know that "grecian" applies to objects, not people. Therefore, your appelation of "possum ****er" sticks like glue. Doug, You're not really going to align yourself with perhaps the dumbest poster to post to rec.boats since...well...ummm, maybe...ever? Are you? An inhabitant of Greece can be called a "Grecian" or a "Greek". Yes, and a psychiatrist trained in hypnotism could conceivably be called a somnambulist, but the word's not in common usage any more. Neither is "Grecian" commonly used to refer to people, just objects. The dictionary is full of words you *could* use. It's up to individual to know which ones are appropriate to use. |

You seem quite a bit dumber than the rest...except, perhaps for basskisser. Perhaps you two are related? "Grecian" is another name for a "greek". Go get a dictionary. Maybe one of the smarter liberals could read it to you. Hmm. Another dumb **** who was left back 3 times in 9th grade, AND missed the GEDs. Grecian is an adjective. Greek is a noun. |
