Title: forumwide poll (question #1)
Post by: JB88 on February 01, 2005, 12:58:36 AM
1.  is president bush smarter than you?

yes or no.

*by smarter, we mean intellectually superior...by intellectual, we are not referring to intelligence gained by outside agencies and brought to him.  we mean his personal human intelligence quotient, his ability reason and his ability to readily absorb information and process it.  advisors dont count.

If you think you can give a yes or no answer to this poll when you don't even know the man then Bush is probly smarter than you and surely has more sense.

anyonje who would come up with a poll like this is probly a lot dumber than Bush and suffering from some sort of envy or hero worship complex.

One would have to empathically state their viewpoint in a concise manner, adherent to the strictest standards of communication. That said, I would have to concur with the distinguished gentleman earlier in stating the cranial capacity of our commander in chief is not necessarily an item open to a logical discussion or discourse. Personally I am of the steadfast position that my intellect is far superior to any being communicating in this textual manner. Good day sirs and madams.

well, having watched the most recent kerry debacle on meet the press, i would have to concede that he would have been just as bad.  (i have felt this way all along)

but then, this is only because weve had 4 years by which to gauge the lunacy of this one and hopefully (godwilling) to have tempered his little napoleon complex to a manageable degree.

id like to see him try to invade another one.  not sure hed get support from his own country this time, much less the world that so many of you claim to care nothing about.

According to Issues 2000 (http://www.issues2000.org/George_W__Bush.htm) Bush's IQ of 120 puts him above 90% of the population.

On the other hand, Marilyn vos Savant  (http://www.marilynvossavant.com/)has me on retainer as long as I never take a sanctioned test and knock her off her lofty perch.

After careful consideration. I have come to the undeniable conclusion.
you grossly overestimate yourself.

I'll be the first to say Bush isn't even close to being my favorite president. I dont even particularly like him.
Some of his policies I agree with. some I dont. Same as it was with Clinton.
But he's far from stupid. And just because he is a poor public speaker does not make it so.

Among other things
Managed to get elected governor of Texas.
Managed to get elected to the highest elected office in the land. Twice
Managed to get into an unpopular war and still get re elected
in spite of all the Hollyweird celebrities and world opinion.

by comparison what have you done besides network yourself into a position to be able to conduct an unscientific informal poll on the message board of an online game?

Bush wins hands down.
not even a close contest

man, these evasion tactics are really funny.  its a good question and you know it.  but hey, im not here to toot my own horn.  no, i didnt ride daddies coat tails and get the support of all of the money available under god or have all of the best advisors.  (though i have served as president in many lesser capacities mind you...i wont brag on them, they are insignificant...true observation)

the next question should be.  if GWB wasnt GHWB's son, do you think that he would have ever held high office?

my answer?  no.

Now your creating a hypothetical question to suit your needs.
Thus making it null and void
If you were going to ask that question it should have been included in the original post/poll

But to answer your question. That would depend on alot of variables.

But Given his level of ambition and hypothetically speaking the same degree of education.
Yes, its possible. Hypothetically speaking

Many of you left-leaning posters delight in denigrating the man's intelligence, despite the fact that Bill Clinton, as he was leaving office, warned all you smart-ass white boy elitists not to underestimate him.

But because of your own snootiness, you didn't listen...and so Bush has just been reelected to a second term.

Reconnecting to a sense of modesty might help you to better understand the man and why he has such appeal to so many Americans.  Otherwise, the breach between the democratic leadership and the common American is just going to widen.

Oh, almost forgot...he's smarter than I am.

jb88 connecting with honesty and a sense of modesty?   hardly... he is the typical liberal... he gets a thought into his empty head and thinks that it is the ultimate truth and has to be shared with everyone... he is happy....no... downright gleeful in doing so.

What happens is that people then hit him with reality of the outside world (outside his close little circle of friends) and point out that his humor is obvious and unfunny.. his premis is wrong and worse.... that he is fun to mess with because he is so blind... this infuriates and confuses him to the point where he is left sputtering "I know you are but what am I?"

The irony is that... well... the poll.
