which ones are "the smart people"?

They are the ones pointing fingers at Rumsfeld.

They also tend to have "nuance" tattooed on their ass.

See Tom Harkin and Friedman as examples... The tattoos are probably covered though.

BTW, Friedman needs some serious treatment for MPD.

Okay, then how do you decide which ones are "the smart people"?

Bush picks his advisors. I guess he should know if they're smart or not. The advice he was getting on how folks in that part of the world would react to our actions has been a big part of the problem with this war in Iraq, or perhaps ow he dealt with their advice, but I presume both advisors and advisee have smartened up by now. I see that he's escalated to an apology now. Given his attitude toward apologies in the past, I guess that means that he's willing to make sacrifices.
