...one could argue at great length about the relative merits (or lack thereof) of the movie--as is clear from this thread.

Perhaps the most effective aspect of the movie, however, is when it simply shows Bush being Bush. The one factoid that no one really seems to be able to refute is that Bush is, by just about any estimation, a stupid individual. He is barely able to put together any kind of complex sentence--listening to him speak, especially spontaneously, is extremely painful. Compare Bush's speeches with those of Blair, for example.

Bush's world-view appears to be extremely narrow, which one might indeed expect from someone with very little to no experience living outside of the US. The US is not simply a larger version of Texas, and the world is not simply a larger version of the US. Moreover, it is not reasonably possible to divide the world into "good" and "evil", as he seems to want to do. There's a lot more grey in the world than that.
