You quoted me saying:
Quote:Most of us do not consider some of the politicians currently in power (no names mentioned at this point) to be intelligent -- or even close to intelligent.
You then said:
Quote:By not naming anyone specific, I have to assume that you mean everyone because you have not ruled anyone out.
You really are getting all twisted up here, McG.
How on Earth can anyone with even a modicum of intelligence translate "SOME OF THE POLITICIANS..." to mean EVERYONE?
Try to think before you write and try to think a second time before you post.
Quote: By saying that you do not consider them intelligent you are implying that they are ignorant.
Most of my comments were aimed at George Bush --and I normally do not imply that he is ignorant. I state flat-out that he is the most ignorant human being ever to hold the office he holds. He has, in my estimation, the intellectual acuity of an asparagus stalk.
Quote:I am interested in what you consider intelligence to mean. Was Bill displaying intelligence while he had his dick in Monica's mouth?
Nope, that was a display of being horny. BTW, when I was Bill Clinton's age, I worked as a bartender in a couple of go-go bars. I use to love sticking my dick into as many of them as possible -- mouth, or whatever. You ought to try it some time. You might get a different perspective on Bill's situtation.
Quote:How about when he came on TV and stated "I did not have sexual relations with that woman."? How about when he wanted to know the definition of "is"?
Nope, neither of those were displays of intelligence. (I'm beginning to understand why you are so far off base on this!!!!)
Quote:Was Hillary displaying her intelligence when she failed to put together a national healthcare plan?
No, not that either! Jeez. But at least she could pronounce national healthcare plan, something Dubya probably couldn't do without a bit of coaching.
Quote:If the current politicians in power are so ignorant, I would ask the question "Then how did they attain the offices they hold?"
I think it had something to do with a conservative appointed Supreme Court.
Quote:Also, I think you mis-speak yourself when you say "Most of us.." Speak for yourself, let others speak for themselves.
You're really not very good at this, McG. I doubt you meant "mis-speak yourself." You probably meant to say I was being presumptuous.
But actaully, I am not, because in my original post on this I wrote:
Quote:I suspect most of the people who like Bill and Hillary (me being one) don't consider them saints in any sense of that word. Most of us probably don't even consider them completely trustworthy or truthful -- they are politicians after all.
But we do consider them intelligent.
Most of us do not consider some of the politicians currently in power (no names mentioned at this point) to be intelligent -- or even close to intelligent.
So you see, I qualified the generalities I was making. I suspect you actually knew that -- but then that old bad habit reared its ugly head -- and you tried to make me be saying something I actually didn't.
Hey, don't worry. You'll get something right soon.
I'm sure you will.
Or at least, I think you will.
If you keep trying.
