Top 2 words used to describe W = "incompetent" and "arrogant"
Twice a year, pollsters for the Pew Research Center ask Americans to say the "one word that best describes" their "impression of George W. Bush." As late as February 2005, the top two volunteered responses were "honest" and "good." The new top two: "incompetent" and "arrogant."

"Honest" has fallen to No. 3. Rounding out the top 10: "good," "idiot," "integrity," "leader," "strong," "stupid" and "ignorant." "Ass" checks in at No. 13, "president" sits at No. 18, and "unconfident" brings up the rear at No. 32.

2. I wonder if
"stupidfuckingasshole" counts. To me, it seems most appropriate.

5. For the first time, "Christian" was not on the list.
It's incredible that anybody would still describe him as honest.

6. Hmmm, Neanderthal Not Even Listed
Surprising. And how about honest getting such a high rating? I'd love to be one of these idiot's kids.

"Yeah Dad, I went to school, the teacher just marked me absent cause he's an unpatriotic liberal."

"Thank you for being honest, son."
