"HarryKrause" wrote in message ... NOYB wrote: Yale grades portray Kerry as a lackluster student His 4-year average on par with Bush's By Michael Kranish, Globe Staff | June 7, 2005 WASHINGTON -- During last year's presidential campaign, John F. Kerry was the candidate often portrayed as intellectual and complex, while George W. Bush was the populist who mangled his sentences. But newly released records show that Bush and Kerry had a virtually identical grade average at Yale University four decades ago. In 1999, The New Yorker published a transcript indicating that Bush had received a cumulative score of 77 for his first three years at Yale and a roughly similar average under a non-numerical rating system during his senior year. Kerry, who graduated two years before Bush, got a cumulative 76 for his four years, according to a transcript that Kerry sent to the Navy when he was applying for officer training school. He received four D's in his freshman year out of 10 courses, but improved his average in later years. (In the interest of upholding international copyright laws, a significant portion of this article has been snipped.

I've seen Bush's transcript and noted he took all the courses we referred to as "puds." I've seen both of their transcripts. He took even easier classes than Bush. |

When he posts Bush's transcripts, I'll post Kerry's...and then you can compare the two. |

He took even easier classes than Bush", did you not? Just look above, you did! So, I asked for the proof. Do you have any, or is it business as usual with you, just trying your hardest to make the right look better than they really are? |

Nice try, NOYB. My question has absolutely NOTHING to do with Harry. NOTHING! I asked for proof of YOUR STATEMENT. Have any? Let's see it. |
