Yes that report was published to find individuals with IQ's less than 75. Thank you for identifying yourself.

This doesn't surprise me coming from a follower of an immoral philosophy. Truths and facts(along with freedom or rights)have never been important to your ilk. You really must be simple to believe the shit you're peddling. It's obviously satire, though in a few cases it has been posted around the Net as factual and, strange as it seems, hotly debated. We have found no evidence of a "Lovenstein Institute" in Scranton, Pennsylvania or anywhere else. There's no trace of a "Dr. Werner R. Lovenstein, world-renowned sociologist" or "Professor Patricia F. Dilliams, world-respected psychiatrist" — not in this world, at any rate. All of the facts and figures appear to have been made up. Some versions of the text claim it was published by the Associated Press, which is not the case. The apparent source of this work of fiction was www.linkydinky.com, which is home, appropriately enough, to a humor mailing list. urbanlegends.about.com

You truly are an idiot. You want to believe things that please you. This is the case with your type. You do few others a great disservice, as few others are as stupid as are you. However, you do great disservice to yourself, as you close your mind to those that easily control you.

Unfortunately you have mistaken that third eye of your's as some extraordinary sensory organ, when in fact it is simply a portal for your bodies biological evacuation of waste. One should never confuse one's asshole as an aid to cognition.

That report was updated just last week. I'm surprised you missed it. Here's the new one. A report published by the Lovenstein Institute of Scranton, Pennsylvania, UPDATED and corrected its prior findings of a four month study of the intelligence quotient of President George W. Bush. Since 1973, the Lovenstein Institute has published its research to the educational community on each new president, which includes the famous "IQ" report among others. There have been twelve presidents over the last 50 years, from F.D. Roosevelt to G.W. Bush, who were rated based on scholarly achievements: 1. Writings that they produced without aid of staff. 2. Their ability to speak with clarity, and several other psychological factors, which were then scored using the Swanson/Crain system of intelligence ranking. The study determined the following IQs of each president as accurate to within five percentage points. In order by presidential term: Franklin Delano Roosevelt [D] 132, Harry S Truman [D] 122, Dwight David Eisenhower [R] 142 John Fitzgerald Kennedy [D] 144, Lyndon Baines Johnson [D] 126, Richard Milhous Nixon [R] 155, Gerald R. Ford [R] 128, James Earle Carter [D] 125, Ronald Wilson Reagan [R] 185 George Herbert Walker Bush [R] 141, William Jefferson Clinton [D] 124, George Walker Bush [R] 129 The six Republican presidents of the past 50 years had an average IQ of 146, with President Reagan having the highest at 185. President Gerald Ford rated the lowest of all the Republicans with an IQ of 128. The six Democratic presidents of the past 50 years had an average IQ of 129, with President Kennedy having the highest IQ, at 144. President Harry Truman was rated the lowest of all the Democrats with an IQ of 122. No president other than Clinton [D] has released his actual IQ (124). The complete report documents the methods and procedures used to arrive at these ratings, including depth of sentence structure and voice stress confidence analysis. The Lovenstein Institute of Scranton is a Pennsylvania think tank of high caliber historians, psychiatrists, sociologists, scientists in human behavior, and psychologists. Among their ranks are Dr. Werner R. Lovenstein, world-renowned sociologist, and Professor Patricia F. Dilliams.
