I have some advice. I'm being sincere here. Rather than think about this manager's incompetence, take it upon yourself to make him better? Why? Because it's your job? Nope. It most certainly is NOT your job to make him better. But, I can tell you this from many years of experience. If you take my advice, it won't work out in your favor every time. But, over the course of your life, it will A LOT more often than it won't. The bottom line is, good organizations want people who try to make the ORGANIZATION better. And, while I've found that junior people rarely believe it, it's pretty darned common that those of us higher up the food chain know when a guy is kind of skating by and a great underling is carrying him.
If your assessment of the manager is correct trust me others know it as well. If you follow this advise it will be notice by those who matter.
Good Luck.

I would add that the great part about my approach is that it doesn't actually matter if the assessment of the manager is correct.
1)If manager is actually incompetent, following my advice is better than sabotage.
2)If manager is actually a lot better than underling realizes and underling is constantly looking to improve the organization, manager will take note.
Win win.
