But the grandparent poster didn't say that. What he said (emphasis mine) was:
[T]he crowd that runs this site, as well as the majority of readers, are a pretty bright bunch that generally takes time to think, and it's hardly surprising that the tendency is anti-Bush.
Tendency != necessity. Are there bright Bush supporters? Sure; I even know a few. But the observation that more intelligent people tend to be anti-Bush is not invalidated by these exceptions.
Not all ideas are created equal. Some ideas are better, and appeal more to intelligent people, than others. The reflexive hip cynicism we're taught to apply to political arguments -- all politicians lie, they're no differ from each other, all we get to do is vote for the lesser of two evils, blah blah blah -- tends to obscure the fact that certain policies, and those certain politicians who espouse these policies, are better than others. Intelligent people recognize this, on the whole if not in every individual case.
