The Wrath Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 (edited) I don't doubt that she is basically a good person. I actually think that about quite a few politicians who I vehemently disagree with, including both Obama and Bush. The Clintons...not so much. And I agree that "stupid" and "ignorant" are not the same thing but--in common, everyday speech--"stupid" can be used to mean "ignorant" or "uneducated," in addition to the more appropriate "unintelligent."

Well, I don't think you're right on stupid. Check out Meriam Webster's online dictionary. I don't consider Obama to be good. He is deceptive and has closely associated with despicable people.

The Wrath Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 I know the dictionary will say something different. That's why I appealed to common usage. And I can see the argument against Obama, but I'm not sure he's anymore dishonest than the average politician. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
