Bert, I'll type slow and you try to follow along. You're trying to smear
Obama's stellar academic career with affirmative action. But this is
Harvard Law we're talking about. It's conceivable they may have let in
some students with 3.9 GPA's instead of the usual 4.0. However, I can
*ASSURE* you that they wouldn't even look at anyone who graduated in the
BOTTOM HALF PERCENT OF THEIR CLASS. Or that took six years to finish a BA.

How can you possibly not realize that?

This is all conjecture. I just would like to see Obama's SAT and LSAT
scores. These tests are standardized and correlate highly with IQ
tests.

McCain's experience during decades of public service cannot be matched
by Obama. When it come to qualifications to be President Obama's not
in the same league as McCain. In fact even Palin has more experience
than Obama.

Obama is the least qualified candidate in history.

That's true. However, my evaluation of Bush as a man of superior, to
very superior, intellegence is based on his SAT scores not his GPA at
Yale.

In McCain's family it's about 2-out-of-3. McCain was the dumb one.

Well, I sense that Jack does not have a higher education record of his
own. It explains his complete inability to understand the academic
process.
