AC, those mispronounciations and the geogrpahical error bit is rather funny, where do you guys find this info?

I heard it through a friend then read in in a newspaper. The girl he said it to also said it on TV.

I don't find that funny though, considering this man is running the most powerful nation on Earth.

I don't.

Ignorance is WORSE than stupidity, I think.

What makes it worse than being conservative?

You know it's just going to piss you off if I tell you, and you'll dismiss it as Christian rubbish anyhow.

Fece, he's not just some random American who didn't know where, or what, Wales is. He's the president of America.

The man is genuinely stupid.

Which may not be far from the truth.

The man is genuinely--really!--of average intelligence.

Assuming that's true....it's still not very reassuring.

i don't like the whole stupid vs. ignorant argument. It takes a unique degree of inbreeding to develop a wealth of ignorance that competes with Bush's.

Average intelligence? Laughable, truly.

Like I said, you're doing the little child technique of "Lalalalala not listening."

Doesn't change the fact that there is a man in charge of the world's most powerful nation who reads upside down books without noticing and probably couldn't tell you where a lot of countries are on the map. Sure, that's ignorant to Geography and if he were a random man, that'd be ok. He's not though is he?

"We have to launch a nookular strike on I-raq..." "Sir, Iraq had nothing to do with it." "Silence! I'm trying to find it on Google Earth but I'm having trouble workin' these internets."

Think of it this way:

Bush has an average intelligence modifier.
He has a lower wisdom modifier.

And you're just doing the "I don't like Bush, so I'll call him stupid" technique.

I don't want a C student running this country. The leader of the free world should have extraordinary intelegence.

Then perhaps the requirements for presidency should be much steeper. Having a certain GPA (with review for the courses taken, mind you) and coming from a certain class of college.

Oh, wait, everyone would pitch a fit about that.

Hell, if it would stop bad presidents from getting into office and invading countries in an unjust manner, sign me up.

I'm not though am I? I'm showing you what a genuinely stupid person does, that he also does, and you're just going "Nah, average intelligence. Not dumb, just ignorant."

Which is:

A) Ignorant in itself. Because you're ignoring blatant proof just because you don't like it.

and B) Still a con to him being president. He's not a stupid president? Oh ok, just an ignorant one who couldn't care less. Saying that, he did once say "I don't really pay much attention to Bin Laden's whereabouts to be honest with you."

You act as though ignorance is an incurable disease.

he isnt running it AC. i thought you knew that

I'm honored to shake the hand of a brave Iraqi citizen who had his hand cut off by Saddam Hussein."—May 25, 2004 - george bush

I'm not gonna get drawn into a debate of conspiracies with you, Deano. We've tried that and you pegged it backward faster than a Pirate version of Michael Jackson doing the moonwalk.

Fece: You're missing the point. You can deny his stupidity, at the risk of your own credibility, all you want. You're only walking into my point by then claiming he is ignorant. As if it were better.
