I don't think that GW was weak willed and I don't buy the puppet of Cheney and his cabinet that many people espouse. GW was a man of conviction. He believed strongly in his God given course and I believe that the buck stopped with him. Edit: He was one of the most effective presidents we have ever had. He got more done than anyone gives him credit for. Why? Because the things he accomplished sucked. Whole new branches of government. Tax cuts for the wealthy, two wars etc.

Check out Front Line Bush's War. It's a good doc imo.

I don't disagree. There was a great article a while back about Bush's hidden intellect, but I'll be damned if I can find it now. Anyway, I just wanted to point out the controversy.
