Oh, he's smart. He's just unbelievably arrogant. Check out some of the interviews he did on The Daily Show. He just dripped contempt for people who don't do "real" news. Like Jon Stewart. And online bloggers. You know - the people who found out he lied.
I think the problem is - as with so many people who didn't grow up with the internet - that he just didn't realize that he was going to get caught. This is a rampant problem among people with power. They really think they can get away with this kind of crap. The world has caught up to them and now there's no place to hide, and they just can't get that through their thick heads. The only way that won't happen is if they don't behave like assholes in the first placeWho knows? This internet thing may end up revolutionizing politics and public behavior. When NOTHING in Vegas stays in Vegas, things are gonna have to change. They can't stuff the internet genie back in the bottle, so they're the ones who'll have to rectify their behavior
