George Dumbiya Bush
Okay, we had a politics thread going well on the old board, let's start it back up here. So without further ado: "Bush is a moron."
If the Arab world was smart -- which I'm sure they are -- they'd take that pathetic speech Bush gave at the United Nations and replace the word "Iraq" with Israel. Think about it for a sec. What are Bush's three primary reasons for attackin/invading Iraq? One, they've continually denied UN requests, failing to meet global demands. Two, they're a (supposed) threat to the region and "global peace." Thirdly, they (supposedly) have weapons of mass destruction. Now turn the tables at replace the same philosophy with Israel: Israel has never followed through on UN demands. They've invaded and bombed bordering countries, proving that they are the true threat to the region and peace surrounding it. Finally, they do have weapons of mass destruction (proven) and they're willing to use them. Clearly there's no real distinction between Iraq and Israel, except for which side you're on.

Bush may be a moron, but wasn't Gore more of a moron?

Jango made some excellent points! And, yes, I have no doubt that Bush is a moron, and the scary thing is how many morons there are in this country to have voted him into office?!!
Gore, is not a moron (IMO), but an intelligent man who ufortunately followed after Clinton's infamous legacy, and didn't have the best campaign strategy. (can someone go help Florida with their elections)

Well, Gore was indeed a moron. However, Bush is a bigger moron.
The only one in Washington to appears to know what he's doing is Colin Powell, who should run for the Presidency in 2004 in order to keep this country out of the dumps. Think about it for a second, before 9/11, Powell had effectively organized "smart sanctions" against Iraq. The US had countries like Russia and Germany backing our sanctions, placing Iraq in tight corner. After 9/11, Bush decides he's won a ticket to attack Iraq, and goes ballistic on everyone. Now we have all but one ally in our "War on Terror" and we're continuing to alienate ourselves from the rest. Powell was right. Bush is wrong.

I disagree with your comment that Gore is a 'moron' . Look at the definition. You may have opinions about his politics/views/personality - but you cannot deny intelligence.
Aside from that Yes, Powell is a great role model. I can't debate politics...I just think that America is an adolescent country and it often mirrors in our International affairs and reactions.

Well, you can't really judge our "youth" as a nation to be entirely indicative of our experience in foreign policy and relations. Look at European countries that have been around for hundreds and hundreds of years. Does that mean their foreign relation policies are any better? No. *cough*worldwarI*cough* *cough*worldwarII* *cough*crusades*cough* *cough*etc. etc. etc. *cough* It all boils down to the person, and Bush is a moron. Gore was a fool if anything.

Aging includes dementia that can account for some countries....
And, you have to give some blame to the people that VOTED BUSH IN! He is just who he is (and a host of adjectives could fill this thread)..but who we elect is a reflection of the masses and times...pretty pathetic that we could even have someone like that on a ballot! OK, 'fool' is more acceptable

I find it hard to believe that Bush is still a crackpot.

I agree that Powell would make a wonderful president (at least compared to the last few we've been unfortunate enough to have).

Something tells me Powell would actually be able to think for himself.

My mom and I like Powell. Hes a good guy. I think he would be better off running for president but he said he doesnt want the responsibility of running a country.
