I think Dubya is about 5'10" or 5'11". Not real tall, but not a shorty.

Just as dry and unemotional as he is in his State of the Unions, but I suppose that applies to most politicians. And he's not a hick. He was raised to eat caviar and snort blow just like every other Yale man. Don't let the accent fool you.

but he is from texas, does that account for anything? Bush has no emotions, why do you think he sends so many people to iraq to get killed.

He tries to create an identity that appeals to the Republican voting bloc, Southern and Western states where people are comfortable with these regional dictions. It doesn't mean he's a bad person. Messing up in Iraq on account of arrogance makes him a bad person.

I also remember Bush being a little shorter than I expected.

You must know there is only one thing wrong with Boy Scouts..... There is not enough of them.

Yeah, it's an amazing group. It's just been getting too much of a stereotypical image these days from a lot of fronts.
