This is the BEST politically correct word I've heard all day!
While Buchanan was arguing with Wolfie about why he says the neo-cons misled Shrub to go to war in Iraq, Wolfie asked him if he really believed Shrub was so easily swayed by this specific group of neo-cons. Buchanan wouldn't say that Shrub was stupid. He called him UN-TUTURED!

WOW, I know Buchanan is a writer, but that's really creative!!!!!

1. Great word with really "loaded" implications:
not "undeducated," which would imply only a need for one to gain the knowledge, but "untutored," which implies that the knowledge would have to be imparted one-on-one with special "help" targeted to one's learning difficulties! Good one and very true.

3. Now that evokes all manner of pestimysticism in me.... the idea that
my leader is not only listening to spirits... but also that he isn't paying any attention to them.... "untutored".... priceless. :)

Perhaps they mistook untutored for untortured on the Abu Ghraib thingy.... and decided to "fix" it. Somebody stop me.

2. "Unqualified" works for me...
As in he has a history of low achievement academically, failure proffessionally,
and dysfunction personally.
