George W Bush had no national security credentials as Gov of Texas...
..and he has learned very little since he has been Commander in Chief. John Kerry must keep emphasizing the incompetence of this person that would have us think h is the one to keep us safe and protect us from the terrorists. Just like he did on Sept 11th, 2001?
George W Bush is a liar and a bullshitter. No American should believe that he has somehow transformed into a great leader. He is the same arrogant, no-nothing, no read, no study, ignorant person that bought and lied and cheated his way into the White House.

1. I don't understand why this doesn't resonate
as I lived in Texas while he was governor and he has a long record of STUPID things, not to mention being the most ignorant man on foreign affairs. Hell, he couldn't even name the president of Pakistan in an interview with Barbara Walters during the campaign in 2000.

For a list of his failures and "flip-flops" go to :

2. He has no national security credentials as president either
Unless I'm missing something 9-11 happened on his watch.

3. Also, remember that in Texas the Liet Gov has more power than the Gov
http://www.lnstar.com/mall/texasinfo/texas.htm

Texas has a *weak governor* system. Governor shares power with a plural exectutive who may be from an opposing party. The Governor doesn't get to pick the Lt Governor, the voters do. (In 1994, Bush shared power with Bob Bullock, a DEMOCRAT)
