Tom, when are you going to start listening to what is said by people on this board and others that are put off by Bush and stop putting your own slant to their words?

I don't think Bush is stupid only because of the way he handles himself in front of a microphone (although it's a factor) but because of his stance on issues, his reactivity to complex situations, his absolutely failed policy and the inability to see the divisiveness in the things he says and does. It's like watching a child touch a match for the first time and seeing that kid touch it over and over again.

And Tom, THIS ISN'T ABOUT KERRY! This wacked-out, divert-the-issue-to-someone-else tactic doesn't fly in the realm of intelligent debate and as soon as you do that, it completely invalidates any rational point you may have made. Is that your attempt at humor or do you truly believe you can win an argument by varying off the point?
