Comments on: Oliver Stone, Idiot http://chicagoboyz.net/archives/1887.html Some Chicago Boyz know each other from student days at the University of Chicago. Others are Chicago boys in spirit. The blog name is also intended as a good-humored gesture of admiration for distinguished Chicago boys including those pictured above.

Maybe Stone is a liar, maybe he just doesn't care about truth, or maybe he's stupid. Maybe all three explanations apply. He looks bad no matter how you explain his behavior. Good point, maor.

He can't be THAT dumb, can he? Please tell me he's just a liar. Nobody could honestly be so suspicious of the JFK assassination and still think Castro hasn’t shown any signs of Stalinism, right?

Knowing who built Hadrian's Wall is certainly not directly relevant to the GWB debate. On the other hand, one would expect someone who made a 'documentary' on Castro to know the difference between his sister and one of his other relationships...

We had a funny example of something similar here in Britain last week when one of the leading lights of the "GWB is an idiot" school of TV opinion formers (Jon Snow of Channel 4 news) went on a celeb version of Who Wants to be a Millionaire and revealed that he didn't know one of the absolutely key facts of British history (that the Romans built Hadrian's Wall.)
