The proverb goes: Never ascribe to malice that which can be explained by stupidity. If GWB was actually brilliant, he must have cultivated this façade to hide malicious, self-serving intent. Via the endless wars he started, he grew his family's oil wealth and enriched his VP through government contracts with Halliburton and Blackwater at the expense of global stability and the United States.

Maybe in some just world he and his cabinet would be tried for the war crimes they committed.
