It was a generalized IQ test. President Bush scored higher than Kerry did when they went into the military. So to vote for the less moronic of them you would have been voting for President Bush. This was public knowledge prior to the election, but the partisan leftwing media tried to obscure it, with some success for those that do not seek out alternate points of view. The funniest thing is that Tom Brokaw broke the story which aired on MSNBC but that part was cut before aired on NBC where people might see it. "a lack of geo-political understanding and curiousity about same." What if there was perfect understanding and a willingness to accept risk for the potential reward? If the terrorists are rooted out a free Iraq should serve as a beacon to the oppressed people of the Middle East. A free Iraq without the murders will be more economically productive than any neighbor. It will put pressure on the dictators and potentates to create representative governments themselves. History will probably regard President Bush 43 as a bold man who took risks for the greater good of mankind. If Iraq becomes a failure history should record that the democrat partisans lined up to use a disaster in Iraq to bring down a President in retribution for their own failed President Clinton. "Bush had so little interest in the people of Iraq that he didn't even know the difference between Sunnis and Shiites." Based on what I know about him being compassionate and caring that assertion needs evidence to gain any credibility. It is possible that in 2000 he did not. Frankly the liberation of Iraq has increased the general American level of knowledge about that part of the world and the religious issues of that region.
