Thought you might enjoy this. Sunday, May 25, 2003 Coulter: Bush Got Into Harvard, Sulzberger Was Rejected When Bush-hating Maureen Dowd sneered that President Bush only got into Yale because his father was a Yale graduate, giving him a leg up because he was a "legacy," she attracted the attention of "Slander" author and conservative columnist Ann Coulter - a very dangerous thing to happen to a liberal like Dowd, already in hot water for deliberately misquoting the president and altering the meaning of what he said. Noting that the increasingly shrewish Miss Dowd had also sneered at the White House explanation that Bush got into Harvard Business School despite the fact that his father had not gone there (Dowd claimed that the Bush name was legacy enough), Miss Coulter turned the tables. She cited the failure of Dowd's boss, Arthur (Pinch) Sulzberger of Jayson Blair notoriety: He couldn't win admission to Harvard even though, like Bush, he bore a famous name as a member of the family that has controlled the New York Times for almost a century and a half, or even to Columbia University, where his father was a legacy. Coulter summed up: "(Those must have been some low SAT scores.) Maureen might want to stay mum on the subject of dumb rich kids, at least for the next three or four decades."
