Bill Bennett: Bush's Un-intellectuality is his main charm....oh boy.

[Philosoraptor]

Never let it be said that Bill ain't full of shit.

[mmonk]

1. And I thought it was more about the un-intellectuality

of his support.

[maxrandb]

8. Yeah, and Private Pyle was charming too

"He's silly and he's ignorant, but he's got guts...and guts is enough. Now you ladies carry on".

I just figured it out! Bush' problems are because of the countries "soft bigotry of low expectations".

[tanyev]

2. I do agree that's about all he's got going for him.

I, however, don't find it charming.

[Jack from Charlotte]

31. When did stupid become cool in 'Merica? I remember when....

people used to admire smart people.

[chelsea0011]

3. So CNN has him come on and discuss what his right wing loonie

binge is talking about? What the hell is this? Thank you liberal media. And his audience thinks it's the media's fault that Iraq is going badly. Funny. I thought the embedded media was along for the ride all these years?

[nickinSTL]

4. WHAT? His "unintellectuality" is what makes me ill when I watch him

I seriously can't watch or listen to Bush. He's such an f'ing moron, I simply can't stand it.

[ProfessorGAC]

15. Wouldn't "Stupidity" Be A More Accurate Descriptor

"Unintellectuality" is simply a made up word to disguise the fact that even Bill Bennett knows Silverspoon is an idiot.

And, Bill Bennett is no Rhodes Scholar. (Although he seems to think he's a genius, despite all evidence to the contrary.)
The Professor

[Philosoraptor]

16. William the Virtuous says that W is dumb but what a character!

Unintellectuality is a virtue now, in the great book of virtues.

[ProfessorGAC]

21. Hey Bill. Go Play Some More Roulette!

Man, he's a piece of work, isn't he?
The Professor

[lumpy]

25. Bowl of Mush Bennett is

no intellectual himself. Even his inflated ego can't cover up his stupidity.

[nickinSTL]

29. Yeah, I agree, stupidity is more fitting.

You'll notice I put "unintellectuality" in quotes...I was just quoting the OP.

[etherealtruth]

5. oh yeah ...

There's a lot of charm in being an intellectually lazy imbecile :sarcasm:

[Minnesota Libra]

6. What?? "his main charm??" I can't help but wonder what Bennett and....

....other neocon/fundies would be saying about a liberal with that same "main charm". :puke: :freak: :puke: :freak:

[The Backlash Cometh]

7. Oh, just say it, Bill. He's fucking stupid and makes you Republicans

feel smart and unthreatened.

[Philosoraptor]

11. Unintellectuality is Repub code for stupider than a hamster on crack.

Don't you just hate those stuffy intellectual liberal types? Give me a slug brain for president any day.

Only now, the repubs are slowly realizing he's destroying everything they hold dear.

Har dee fuckin' har.

[doubleplusgood]

9. "Ignorance is Strength"

apparently, for a large portion of the American electorate

[BurgherHoldtheLies]

10. Waste of a world-class education is NOT a positive....

Bet there are plenty of Americans who would be grateful to get the opportunity to attend elite schools with a pass into Yale. THEY would not waste that education.

The guys a loser...bet on it Mr. Bennett.

[many a good man]

12. Charm? I thought it was his manliness.

[LibDemAlways]

13. I'm not "charmed." In fact, I'm embarrassed and ashamed that

I live in a country where millions of "morans" dumber than the chimp (if that's possible) would vote for him for a seat on the local parks and recreation board - much less US President. The guy makes Gomer Pyle look like a fucking genious.

[NI4NI]

14. The Neo-Cons recognize

an unintellectual puppet to be used when they see one.

[burythehatchet]

17. And the fact that

Bill Bennett is packed full of human excrement is his greatest charm

[Philosoraptor]

18. Yeah, charm just oozes out of his massive bulk like honey.

Mr. charm. Him and Don Rickles.

[B3Nut]

19. I have no use for people

who take pride in stupidity and venerate the stupid, and who enshrine ignorance as a virtue to be emulated. It is simply disgusting.

Todd in Beerbratistan

[linazelle]

20. It's true: That's why the backwash want to have a beer with him

They think he's as dumb as they are. And while I agree that he's a dumb piece of shit, he is not as dumb as we like to think. If he was, then Colbert's "jokes" would've flown right over his chimp skull. But he actually got mad. The Chief Moran knows what's going on--he just wants to play dumb as an excuse when shit blows up in his face.

[lumpy]

27. Bush is dumb like a fox.

He slips, slides and sidles through life.

[TahitiNut]

22. Forrest Gump he's NOT.

:shrug:

Junior isn't merely un-intellectual; he's ANTI-intellectual. He's the lazy, rich kid who bullies the kids who work hard to learn because it's their "family values."

Junior's "charm" is the same "charm" of any rich kid in the 8th grade: he's got a pool and his own TV that the little ass-kissing sycophants like to enjoy after school. Any 8th-grader with all the expensive toys and enough money to take other kids to the ball game gets a big following - greedy little gang members.

[bullimiami]

23. in other words. if bush wasnt a dumbass, hed have nothing.

[sinkingfeeling]

24. Bill, that's why most people have pets...dogs, cats, chimps, etc.

[Rex]

26. Hey Bill, I hear a slot machine calling you!

A womanizing, drunk gambler thinks he is gonna tell ME what makes Bush 'charmful'. Snort. Bush has no charm hence his 27% approval rating.

[maxsolomon]

28. President Presenile Dementia does genuinely dislike intellectuals

and so do many americans - they feel inferior, resentful. face it; snobs are dislikeable. i would know - snobs consider me a hopeless, misanthropic elitist.

the bush family fully realized this after they lost to clinton - hence the faux populist, faux evangelical, faux have-a-beer-with-me jokester fratboy, faux i-caint-pronounce-that-wurd-neither act that dimson "pulls off". hence the campaign strategies against Gore & Kerry. paint them as effete know-it-alls. works like a charm. after all, almost 50% of americans are below average in intelligence.

ha. humor.

once they're elected, they govern in the interests of their class.

[Maestro]

30. Ah yes, well dipshit Bill would recognize "unintellectuality."

Here are some of his nice comments:

Less black babies

CIA spin

Pullitzer winners worthy of jail

Yep, Bill knows what he is talking about when it comes to stupidity. He practices it all the time.

[rman]

32. It does appeal to his base,

you know, that 25% that still supports him.

[Minnesota_Lib]

33. Yes, Bill, being a simpleton is so quaint, but do you really want an...

...idiot and Christian end-timer to have the use of a nuclear arsenal at his whim?

[Beelzebud]

34. That's probably true if you'r a dumbass like Bennett. :D
