The Chris Matthews Show had Bob Woodward on discussing the differences between Obama and Bush. In a nutshell, Obama is intellectually curious, Bush is not [ and his right wing authoritarian cult worshippers admire his degree of anti-intellectualism].
Asked by Matthews to explain why Bush “shows little intellectual curiosity,” Woodward said it was essentially because Bush “doesn’t like homework”:WOODWARD: "I think he’s impatient. I think, my summation: He doesn’t like homework. And homework means reading or getting briefed or having a debate. And part of the presidency, part of governing, particularly in this area, is homework, homework, homework."
A commenter points out:
"Bush is a classic wet brained, dry drunk. Always on edge - “impatient” - with too many destroyed brain cells, feeling sorry for himself because he can’t drink anymore, yet always thinking about having another drink.Source: ThinkProgress
The type of guy you wouldn’t hire to even mow your lawn because he’d f*** it up or leave before it was completed.
How we survived him being president (so far….) is simply amazing."
