Title: Bush smarter than kerrie??

seems that may be the case.    Much hand wringing and knashing of teeth from the "artistic" community over this one I bet.  

If Bush is considered stupid by our neighbors and the effite Americans.... what must kerrie seem like?

From that article:

"Late Late Show with Jim Rome":

"John Kerry took a break from the campaign trail for a totally spontaneous hunting trip, where he just happened to run into some news cameras. Kerry was hunting in the state of Ohio, which his wife, Teresa, rented out for the day."

"Asked how many geese he shot, John Kerry replied, 'I think it's beautiful the Cheneys love their lesbian daughter."'

"'I love hunting, fishing, anything outdoors,' Kerry said as he sprayed on his tan."

"At one point during the hunt, Kerry experienced a flashback to Vietnam, and quickly shot himself in the bellybutton for a Purple Heart."

"A very scary moment when Kerry accidentally unloaded a round into Senator Joe Lieberman, mistaking him for a wild turkey."

:lol

Just some humor, seemed like a good thread to stick it in...

A woman bought a new Lexus LS400, and returned the next day, complaining that she couldn't figure out how the radio worked. The salesman explained that the radio was voice activated.

"Watch this!" he said..."Nelson!"

The radio replied, "Ricky or Willie?"

"Willie!" he continued....and "On The Road Again" came from the speakers.

The woman drove away happy, and for the next few days, every time she'd say, "Beethoven", she'd get beautiful classical music, and if she said, "Beatles!" she'd get one of their awesome songs.

One day, a couple ran a red light and nearly creamed her new car, but she swerved in time to avoid them.  "IDIOTS!" she yelled.

John Kerry came on and introduced the French National Anthem, sung by the Dixie Chicks...

probly explains why before every debate kerrie had to take the day off to study while Bush just kept up bussines as usual.

guess the liberals in this country want the dumber man to be president.

Yea, I'm sure the whole world is hanging on Steve Sailer's words.

It seems mean score is not in is the "psuedo-scientist's" vocabulary :rolleyes:

That was funny though, laz. For a second I thought you had finaly went arround the bend.

"Kerry: I scored an average 22 on my ACT's"

"Bush: Hah! I averaged 300 on my SAT's!!! I'm almost 10 times..er no 11... er ... I'm smarter because my number is bigger!!!"



>>But the president can do some things to get rid of the blundering idiot image, Sailer said.

<<

Hmmm wonder where that image came from?

Despite all the talk questioning Bush's ability to pronounce words and claims that Kerry is a fussy intellectual, some pseudo-scientists are saying the Massachusetts senator's IQ may actually be lower than the president's.


it must be true.  FOX has trotted out their "pseudo-scientists", to give the 'facts'.

it does show that you need to really dig at the bottom of the barrel to find someone willing to be quoted while saying Bush might not be a complete moron.

I try not to be a spelling Nazi, but if you are going to trash someone's intellect it helps to spell the words correctly to keep from looking like a fool.

That is unless you are implying only ignorant people vote for Bush. In that case, you have proved your point.

It is proper to say either you "have proven" your point or you "proved" your point.

I don't know what the technical term is for this error, but mama told me it ain't right.  ;)

That would be verb tense, but in a world of typos, it means squat.

I'll defer to an English major on this one. It looks in proper context to me, but I'm not an English major. Are you?

No, RPM, but I play one on TV.

Actually, your statement, it turns out, is a mix of the past perfect ... aw forget that... just say to yourself, "I proved" and then follow it up with "I proven"

Clearly,  "I proved" rolls off the tongue, where "I proven" does not sound right.  "I have proven" sounds right.  One  does not use the form "proven" without a "have" in front.

There I done it.  I done proved you ignernt.    :)

I don't think "rolling off the tongue" is a requisite for proper english. I checked Webster's and it has nothing under correct tongue rollage. "I proven" would be improper as well.

I still remember the way Reagan was painted as a bumbling old fool during his terms.  Recent publications of his writings show that image wasnt accurate.  The national reaction to his death suggested that it was more of a toung in cheek stereotype than a wideheld belief.  I see some parallels in Bush who seems willing to also brush off the image and allow a "strategery" of "misunderestimation"

Before you criticize another's grammar you might want to be sure that your own doesn't suck.
