		<description>&lt;i&gt; it is becoming an exercise in understanding human stupidity &lt;/i&gt;

Maybe so.
But the best President in my lifetime - no, *not* Carter, but Reagan - was also &quot;stupid&quot;.
But he knew - in broad terms - what he wanted to get done.

I don&#039;t care if the candidates are &quot;stupid&quot; or &quot;brilliant&quot; - indeed the latter scares me.

The President - like a CEO - needs (oh dear, I&#039;m about to say it) the &quot;vision thing&quot;.
But he or she should know his/her limitations sufficiently as to leave the details to others, while having the right personal skills.

(In Brown of course we have the opposite, but that&#039;s another story...)

On these criteria I would reject Hillary at least...</description>

		<description>I am becoming obsessed with the US elections - it is becoming an exercise in understanding human stupidity. I really can&#039;t believe &quot;pundits&quot; were hammering Obama for ordering orange juice instead of coffee. Or being elitist - because the most important qualification for becoming a President is drinking beer, bowling and shooting animals.

And then you have Clinton, who I once admired, but now think she is worse than the Republicans. The Bosnia flap was appalling: she repeated that lie 4 times. And McCain has no clue about Shiahs and Sunnis. 

I guess you really have to be a genius in America to understand who is the best candidate.</description>

		<description>as a zionist neo-con lizard from outer space, i&#039;m extremely disappointed that the iranians should think we&#039;d employ that bunch of foaming troglodytes. i mean, really! besides, everyone knows ahmedinejad is actually a secret z.nc.l.f.o.s. himself. that&#039;s why he has that rather rubbish beard, to hide the zip in his human skin-suit. bah.

		<description>Sunny 

This is a wicked post -- 

oh did you guys notice the US trying to tell the Indian Government about what conversations they should be having with &quot;M A DINNER JACKET ie Ahmadinejad &quot; -- both the comments from the US and the retaliatory response from India (especially the Marxists) was quite funny.

Anyway, pickled politics as usual brightened my day

one more thing -- just because Obama lost big in PA you guys stopped talking about the US elections -- sorry had to make that dig</description>

		<description>What nonsense.

Everyone knows it was the Prince of Arabia who put 17 of his worst criminals onto those planes against their will, and then the CIA used a remote control-like device to guide them towards the twin towers

America got its war, the Prince of Arabia got to keep his money

		<description>You can &#039;reconcile those narratives&#039;, as they say, by assuming the secret Zionist masters are double-secretly working for al Qaeda. For example, they could be prolonging the occupation of the West bank as a means of ensuring al qaeda is favoured over less vigorous groups.

Or perhaps both groups are pawns of the Turks. Noone ever suspects them - isn&#039;t that suspicious?</description>
