Is Bush Stupid -- Or Is America?
Many Americans believe George W. Bush is uninformed, simpleminded and, in a single word, stupid. But there is a different way to look at the evidence and conclude that while Bush may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, it is he who thinks the American people are the real dullards.
After all, Bush is the one who explains the facts about current events as if hes speaking to people with the mental capacity of a five-year-old. He also assumes with some justification that his listeners dont mind being misled and lied to, as long as he gives them some bromides that make them feel good.

9/11: Spy Agency Data After Sept. 11 Led F.B.I. to Dead Ends
In the anxious months after the Sept. 11 attacks, the National Security Agency began sending a steady stream of telephone numbers, e-mail addresses and names to the F.B.I. in search of terrorists. The stream soon became a flood, requiring hundreds of agents to check out thousands of tips a month. But virtually all of them, current and former officials say, led to dead ends or innocent Americans. Is it possible they are looking in the wrong place?

War on Terror Continues to Create Terrorists
The CIAs recent botched attempt to kill al Qaedas number two man, Ayman Zawahiri, in Pakistan illustrates why the Bush administrations overly aggressive war on terror actually motivates terrorists to attack the United States. Certainly, capturing or killing the brains behind al Qaeda is an important goal. Unfortunately, in the U.S. method of warfarewhich unduly emphasizes attrition, heavy firepower and sophisticated weaponry, even against guerrillas and terroriststhe technology of killing has outstripped the quality of human intelligence needed to hit the correct targets. The CIAs unmanned Predator drone fired missiles that killed many Pakistani civilians, including women and children, but apparently not Zawahiri.

Outsourcing the American dream for nightmare
There are too many alarming signs in our country for the politicians to actually be blindly racing the mad horse into the flaming barn as it might appear. The social-economic gaps in our nation are at record heights. In recent years, there have been more billionaires than ever, more fresh college graduates filing bankruptcy than ever and increasing numbers of the middle class economically sinking.
