You know, the fact is, the way these false "studies" have been swallowed by leftists supports my point that even the allegedly legitimate "studies" are not to be trusted, since most are performed by leftists.

To tell you the truth, I put about as much faith in your UPDATED version as I do in the first one. I no more believe Bush has an IQ of 91 than I do Clinton's of 180-something, since the so-called methodology is highly suspect. But common sense says Clinton is way smarter than Bush. And the undeniable fact is also that there is nothing in Bush's history of personal oral or written output that would lead us to think otherwise. But it's funny to see how exorcised some people here get over something like this. As if there isn't alot of junk posted by them here as well, and as if they aren't also hyperventilating regularly about their personal conduit to truth, God and the American Way. You need look no further than your friend Cyberken. I mean, look at how many people needed to respond.

But it was fun, wasn't it?

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.


of course we knew that reagan was brilliant, but looking back from the perspective that only the passage of time gives, his true genius is becoming recognized for those who bother to look at the record of achievement. (despite the best efforts of some historians who continue trying to marginalize him by grudging praise which puts inordinate measure of his greatness as leader to his "acting "skills and and amiable, avuncular personality)

thanks for posting that...
