Rick, since we're all stuck on the word "stupid", please offer us the courtesy of your definition. You started long ago with Bush Jr, but you have now migrated to Reagan. By "stupid", do you mean Alzheimers? Hardly a PC comment from someone of your ilk. Disrespecting the President based on your Perception of an exagerated Liberal Media personification does nothing to support your belief in open-mindedness. Have you ever met the men you are trying to belittle? Bush may not be a Rhode Scholar, but neither am I. Does that make me stupid?

tailgator: not being a rhode scholar does not make you stupid any more than clinton being one makes him smart. don't you know people that after listening to them for a few moments, you know they are dumb as a lamp post. sometimes it's a gut feeling. and the gut feeling comes from your history of observing people. it's the animal instinct in you that warns you away. i am not refering to the regan who is now suffering from alzheimers. please give me credit for having the decency not to say anything bad about anyone suffering from that or any other disease. i am talking about the man who was our acting president. the man that closed mental hospitals and helped creat the homeless. the man that had no trouble cutting down redwood trees that were the oldest living life on the planet. "you've seen one redwood tree, you've seen them all" read the book written by his daughter patty about growing up in a household where she was constantly forced into submitting to nancy, who was not interested in raising her children properly, and her father who was disinterested. read anything. get input. open your mind to other ideas that you might not agree with but you will have at least seen other viewpoints. i used to subscribe to the daily worker, not because i was ever a comunist or ever thought of being one, but i wanted to see what the enemy was up to. regan was the man who deregulated savings and loans and cost the taxpayers billions and left office having tripled the national debt. he was a caricature of himself. when he went off script during a speech, he started to say things from movies he had been in. the man so kept out of the loop, he did not know a jr officer was running illegal arms sales from the white house. by the way, why doesn't powell have an office in the white house? he and his staff are in another building. why does powell who said use all the force you can and surround the snake and cut off his head and you kill the whole snake, now suggest israel not fight terrorists by killing them when they are on the way ino your house with murder in their minds. do you read freepers or even know who they are? sports teams watch films of their opponents. a lesson to be learned. even forest gump said "stupid is as stupid does" "hardly a PC comment from someone of your ilk" what is my ilk?

char5353: "You really didn't mean to call Ronnie and George H. Bush stupid I am sure!" Like I said, I am sure you really didn't mean to be quite so harsh and overbearing in your accessment of such smart men! YES TO BOTH. OUR COUNTRY IS BEING TORN APART AT THIS MOMENT. ISN'T ANYONE PAYING ATTENTION.

We will let all you bleeding hearts show us the way with all of your misinformation! Oh and Rick, "Stupid is as, stupid does!" Forrest Gump!

I avoid the political board because I can't stomach this liberal crap. Now I have to avoid the "picture post" board too??????? Get a clue Rick. I don't agree with everything that GWB does, but he's not the anti-Christ. Neither was Clinton. They are puppets. There are people behind the scenes pulling the strings. Powerful people with agendas.

jc: you understand it all. you are a voice of reason.

I had an intern once...nice kid, hard worker..real go-getter......I never had sex with him though.....
