The article wanders a great deal, and never quite gets down to claiming a direct comparison, but if I read it right the conclusion is that both men have IQs of 120 or higher, and that Bush's is probably in the range 125-130. In other words both are above the 90th percentile in IQ, but Kerry's is probably in the low 90s and Bush's in the mid 90s. Sailer also draws some conclusions about the differences between how the men are likely to use their gifts: " The subtle difference between Bush and Kerry in two words: Bush is competitive and Kerry is ambitious." Read the whole thing.there you go
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Mr Wolf @ May 10 2006, 02:46 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Did you see the campaign that he ran? It was basically, "Atleast I'm not Bush". Kerry is a joke.</div> That's the way the media spun everything, they played mostly sound bites of him ripping Bush and left out of the more 'boring things' that he was running on. I went to a Kerry rally and the local news later that night only showed him when he was talking about Bush and the end statment and left out all of his ideas and plans.
The IQ thing is ridiculous, Bush barely graduated from college and that's a bunch of bullsh**, he's obviously an idiot.Can someone please give me some legitimate reasons why Kerry would have been far worse than Bush is?
Me too, his opinion on this should be interesting because I doubt he has much to back up his argument.
John Kerry says he is against the Patriot Act and the No Child Left Behind Act yet he voted to pass both of those and he also voted to go to war in Iraq. Now all of a sudden he is against all three of those? It sounds like he changes his way because that is the way the public wants him to go. I want to see what his opinion is on the matter but all I get is some political bullsh**. President Bush has said and stated that he supports the War in Iraq..ok, what about Kerry?Kerry and Edwards would say anything to win the election and they would not stay on common ground. Every other week they had a different opinion on a subject and it threw me and most Americans off.Not to mention his track record in the Senate was far from exceptional. I don't know how many votes or sessions/meetings he missed but I know it is over 70% of them. If he can't show up and work as a Senator, should he be our President?The bottom line, for me, is this: You could have President Bush who has the balls and his legacy on the line to finish the fight in Iraq or you could bring in Kerry who would do god knows what over there. I don't care if you guys don't like me because I like President Bush but I'm getting quite frustrated with the lack of respect when it comes to my opinion.
I think Nixon was pretty bad as president..Especially in regards to domestic issues. Oh yeah, Watergate probably doesnt help too much either.

Senators miss senate votes all the time because most of the time they pass by a majority or fail by a large majority and these people have trips overseas and reelections events, they can't be there all the time, they are always there when their vote really matters. George Bush BS'ed his guard service, does he not deserve to be President then?
Any guy who gets re-elected must be somewhat liked. I haven't lived here long, and I took World History this year, so I don't know much about this, but he must be better than any guy who didn't get re-ellected.Plus, we live in an age of media dominance. The media has always been up his butt, which is a big part of why people dislike him so much
Allright, they've been up the butt of two presidents. The rest we only have History books and our parents lectures to refer to.
