Frankly, I've read so damn much on either side of this hypothesis that I don't really believe any of it anymore. I wish I'd been just a bit older from 2000-2005 so I could have watched it all unfold myself.

I was old enough during that time period, and all we got to see "unfold" was what the media and pundits wanted us to see. Is Bush smart or dumb? I have no idea and don't care. I've never met him myself, so it's silly to base everything I know about the guy on the media that was dedicated to bashing him, with the one exception of Fox News.
