Bush's detractors aren't willing to credit him with much of an intellect — unless of course they are seeking to show how diabolical he is

While Greenway claims President Bush misrepresents what has happened on his watch, more often than not it has been Greenway and his media contemporaries who have gleefully and unfairly misrepresented the [43rd] president of the United States — to the detriment of their own credibility
writes Jeremy Slavin.
Bush's detractors aren't willing to credit him with much of an intellect — unless of course they are seeking to show how diabolical he is; he's only smart when he's a devil, otherwise he's a dunce.

We all know 9/11 happened while Bush was president. But Greenway makes no mention of the growing threat of Al Qaeda during the Clinton years. Moreover, hundreds of Democrats voted along with Republicans to send U.S. troops to Iraq; should we denigrate them by saying they were hoodwinked into doing it, or acknowledge that we're talking about people who are capable of thinking and choosing for themselves?
