While G.W.Bush was US president, most Americans could say one thing for sure: they were smarter than their president! That’s not such a small matter, considering.
How come Americans never catch the main character they are chasing in their wars? It seems that the main evil character is always used to convince the public at home that the war is necessary, only to be forgotten, once he/she serves that purpose. It is amazing how this scenario always works!
American politicians would never be successful in Europe: they are too stupid, unsophisticated, and arrogant for that. On the other hand, European politicians also don’t have a chance in the US: they have scruples.
