Just remember, there are different kinds of "smart" he may be dumb when it comes to school type stuff but manipulation smarts are a whole story in there self, look at Hitler, nothing special thru his life but then he said fuck it, then worked on his own little plans and brainwashed his country. There are still SS people in Germany and other places that still believe in that manipulation Hitler type stuff, although they are all just about dead. Sounds familiar, it doesn't matter how much Bush Rips-off Americans, the puppets still follow, it's there old fashioned ego, it's , "we are going to stick with what we started no matter what because we don't want people to be able to say, see you were wrong, so we just keep pretending we're right, no matter what. Profit and Power don't hurt, so go ahead and throw some of that in, we deserve it, we were right."
