What Bush-Bashing Accomplishes

If you think about it, most (but not all) people will agree on at least one thing. And that is the fact that no matter how you look at it, Bush is
simply lacking the intelligence to do any of us any real harm.
This is a strange comment in light of recent political history.
Bush is mopping the floor with his political opponents. He did it in Texas, he did it nationally and now he's doing it worldwide.
All the while, his opponents insist that the guy who is handing them their asses is an idiot. What a fascinating – and revealing -- thing for them
to tell us.
Another “Idiot President”
Lincoln's opponents (also Democrats) used to ridicule him ("I have endured a great deal of ridicule without much malice, and have received a great
deal of kindness not quite free from ridicule."
-- Abraham Lincoln) and thought he was a harmless country bumpkin, too.
They claimed he led America into a pointless war (debatable) and lampooned him in the press as incompetent.
All while he quietly took over the country and nearly became its emperor, empowered by the self-defeating incompetence of the opponents who
“misunderestimated” him.
History remembers Abraham Lincoln, but almost no one remembers his critics.
So I hope Bush's critics aren't hoping to have their names emblazoned in the annals of history, because what they're doing is eminently forgettable
– and it hasn't even been a century yet.
You Must Be At Least THIS Mature To Run The Country
What I see coming from “Bush-bashers” are infantile insults, hate-mongering, lies and willful ignorance – and nothing of any substance
whatsoever.
In this thread alone I see one baseless insult after another – including a picture suggesting that anyone who pays attention to Bush is a sheep.
And then these people expect me to agree with them on serious political issues.
And they say
Bush is an idiot and insult anyone who disagrees with them.
Sure. Keep saying that.
What Bush-bashers are accomplishing is publicly labeling themselves “sub-idiots” by saying the guy that's running them out of politics is an
idiot.
What kind of mentality does that take?
I hope I've made that clear enough for even a “sub-idiot” to figure out.
