Default ( OT ) Interesting numbers (if true)

http://www.insidepolitics.org/heard/heard32300.html
Confidential college transcripts and test scores obtained by the Washington
Post reveal that neither presidential candidate, George W. Bush nor Al Gore,
were shining students during their college days at Yale and Harvard,
respectively. Although each earned respectable scores on the SAT college
admissions test (a total of 1355 of 1600 for Gore and 1206 for Bush),
neither did that well in their college courses. Both earned a mix of B and C
grades. Gore's lowest grade of D came in a natural sciences course, while
his top grades were an A in French and English, an A in Visual and
Environmental Studies, and an A- in Social Relations. Bush's lowest marks
were a 70 (of 100) in Sociology and a 71 in Economics, while his highest
scores were High Passes in History and Japanese.

Well, I'm not privy to the results of his IQ test. His SAT scores were
higher than average, but that and a buck twenty five get you a cup of
coffee. Yes, the man can and does mangle the English language, but despite
what we Usenet pundits think, this is not necessarily a reflection of
intelligence. Sheesh, the libs have been saying every Republican since Ike
is an idiot (Nixon excepted - their view painted him more of an evil

genius,
and they were correct that he was evil, but wrong in thinking he was a
dastardly genius). Yea, Ike, Ford, Reagan, Bush and Bush Jr. are all

idiots.
Bush 1 was even a wimp early in his campaign until the lazy lib press
finally got around to digging up his service as a WWII dive bomber pilot.
