Is the President of the United States, George W. Bush, an idiot? Scarborough Country asks the forbidden question. They look at his inability to speak correctly, not at his inability to lead correctly, however. Of course the real question is, is the Republican Party full of idiots because they nominated the sucker, and continue to blindly follow his crap? Is the US full of idiots, because they elected the sucker and have not begun demanding better until recently?
UPDATE: July 12, 2007. After 11 months this got 10,400 comments, most saying, yes, an idiot he is. Then things got ugly. Rightwing trolls came in with their usual garbage, as well as non-Americans who thought it would be fun to bait them. Then there were those who really did seem to be on the side of promoting harm to the US, as well as the loons with their conspiracy theories (9/11 was an inside job, Israel is behind it all, etc.)
So I shut down the comments, and archived the 2 mb's worth of text.
Ah, peace and quiet. Now all you are left with are your own thoughts, the anger, rants and insane babblings of a YouTube "discussion," and the question, "Is Bush an 'Idiot'?"
I'll reopen discussion with a tearful apology when Bush brings America to glory.
From Keith Olbermann Countdown: George Bush arrives in Raleigh, N.C. waves at spectators, they don't wave back. Waves again, still no wave back. Waves again, they don't wave back. Waves again, still no wave back. Tries to wave at spectators, they don't wave back. Waves again, still no wave back. waves at spectators, they don't wave back.

REPORTER: I mean, you've talked a lot about freedom. I've heard you talk about freedom -- I think every time I've seen you.
GEORGE W. BUSH: Yes.
REPORTER: And yet there are those who would say, look, let's take Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib and rendition and all those things, and to them that is the, you know, the complete opposite of freedom.
GEORGE W. BUSH: Of course if you want to slander America, you can look at it one way. But you go down -- what you need to do -- I think I suggested you do this at a press conference -- if you go down to Guantanamo and take a look at how these prisoners are treated -- and they're working it through our court systems. We are a land of law.
REPORTER: But the Supreme Court have just said that -- you know, ruled against what you've been doing down there.
GEORGE W. BUSH: But the district court didn't. And the appellate court didn't.
REPORTER: The Supreme Court is supreme, isn't it?
GEORGE W. BUSH: It is, and I accept their verdict. I don't agree with their verdict. And it's not what I was doing down there. This was a law passed by our United States Congress that I worked with the Congress to get passed and sign into law.
REPORTER: But it looked like an attempt to bypass the Constitution, to a certain extent.
GEORGE W. BUSH: This was a law passed, Adam. We passed a law. Bypassing the Constitution means that we did something outside the bounds of the Constitution. We went to the Congress and got a piece of legislation passed.
REPORTER: Which is now being struck down, I think.
GEORGE W. BUSH: It is, and I accept what the Supreme Court did, and I necessarily don't have to agree with it.
My only point to you is, is that yes, I mean, we certainly wish Abu Ghraib hadn't happened, but that should not reflect America. This was the actions of some soldiers.

President Bush breaks out his standup routine at the White House correspondents dinner (March 29)
This is a video I found of an Irish TV interview with President Bush. I later found out that this interview was not shown on American television because it was banned! Why you ask, take a look and see...
