65. How Dumb Is George W. Bush?

Fri May 15, 2015, 05:10 PM

May 2015

From what I heard Barbara Bush once said Jeb Bush was supposed to be the smart one at least between himself and George. For that to be true George must be extremely stupid. He must have been far more stupid than he showed while President. Either that, or I missed a great deal during the Bush Administration. Because now Jeb is looking like the stupid one. It seems that there are things that Jeb is saying that even George would not have said.
