Bush's anti-intellectualism

From the Carpetbagger Report, after Bush's inane jokes at this week's press conference about getting a C in economics, but an A in keeping people's taxes low.

I remind people that, like when I’m with Condi I say, she’s the Ph.D. and I’m the C-student, and just look at who’s the President and who’s the advisor. (Laughter.)

Comes from his own insecurity and his bullying nature. What a great choice for pres he was.This week's performance was as bad as he's ever been... bullying anti-intellectualism, willful bellicosity, and planted softball questions on polarizing issues created to distract from his many failures. The archetypal Bush press conference. (See KO's Special Comment in link)
