    Smart? Are you kidding?

    In reference to Ondelette's remark-the people who are supposedly running this country (into the ground) are not smart, nor are they the "smartest people" available to run this country.

    They are mediocre minds (at best) beset with personal agendas obsessed with power, money and influence.

    Not one of them, I do believe, has graduated from the top ivy league colleges with a 4.0 or better average grade, except Rice. That is what I'd call smart...and the lack of smarts is definitely on display when the AG says he can't remember what he did in the past, even though there are emails proving that he did it.

    The lack of brain power in Washington is destroying this country and until we smarten up about it, it will worsen.
