Sinergy, his records were not sealed by Yale.  His records, specifically his GPA, was compared to Kerry's during the election.  Bush graduated with a higher GPA than Kerry.  I am happy to have anyone who thinks they have a more impressive CV than Bushes to post it.  Are you going to post yours? 

What about my calling Clinton a sociopath?  Are you going to rush to Clinton's defense as much as you rush to persecute Bush?

Well, I have a BA and made the Dean's List at one school and the President's Honors List at another.

I am not going to tell you what schools those were, but then I am not in the public eye.

Would it make you happy if I rushed to Clinton's defense?

Tell you what, I will agree with your statement that his college transcripts prove he is a genius, if you will agree with my statement that he has failed at, been mollycoddled and helped along by, or been bailed out by other people in every enterprise he has been involved in during his entire life.

I think Bush also had higher scores than Kerry on the enterance exams for the military.

Doesn't really mean much though....They are both morons in my opinion.

Wasnt Kerry drafted?

Gee, if failing a test meant I didnt have to go shoot, in the words of Walter Sobchak, "the man in the black pajamas, a worthy adversary," I might not put much effort into passing the test.

Just me, could be wrong.

As a fairly partisan (you think?) Democrat, I think folks make a big mistake in misunderestimating Bush's intelligence. For six years now, he's been incredibly effective at getting what he wants.

According to his official bio, he volunteered to go to Vietnam.

3. The Jose Padilla Plot: In May 2002 the U.S. disrupted a plot that involved blowing up apartment buildings in the United States. One of the plotters, Jose Padilla, also discussed the possibility of using a "dirty bomb" in the U.S


The inclusion of Jose Padilla brings the veracity of the rest of your quote into question.

As does a spoiled brat, or a con-man.

Aw FUCK! Lookit that, the morning AP wire has a new poll, and guess what?

Treating the performance evaluation of our elected officials as a horserace is just plain dumb.

"Overall approval for Congress is 40 percent. The survey shows Bush's approval ratings remain in the mid-30 percent range, that a striking 39 percent strongly disapproves his handling of foreign policy and the war on terror, and that the public has scant hopes that the president and Congress can work together to solve the country's problems."

Look at their concrete results. A half million dead, and no prospects for reducing the carnage in sight. A war so stupid they needed to conspire to defraud Congress and the People to keep them from figuring out the con.

Even now, when The People have told Bush, "You can't escape your responsibility. You need to clean up your mess before you run away into historical obscurity." he's dicking around trying to score points by picking on "Free Labor", who are just shooting for the same things as "Free Markets" and "Free Capital".

I don't trust any of them farther than I can throw a Caddy Escalade....

With April 15 coming this weekend, don't forget to purchase your weapon of choice!   (Typically long guns for April 15, but hey, a good broadsword has its uses as well!)

I recently made a decision to also purchase something every Sept 11  as well.  

Come the revolution, we all need to be ready ;)

NEXT constitution, we need to make a couple little changes, but this one isn't bad.  It is just too bad we don't abide by a lot of it anymore.

Bush's thesis paper has never been released.

A lot longer than 6 years.

Interesting line by Tom Dickenson this month in Rolling Stone about the Bush administrations drive to war against Iraq.

He called it the "Failing forward" approach.

According to a CNN-Gallup poll...
38% of Americans say they approve of how President Bush is handling his job



Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.. JOB!  I misread  that.  I thought it read NOB. (sp).
 
I officially withdraw my vote then.
