NOT similar, you ignorant ass. Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar.


Hey dummy, and Bush was a Yale grad with an MBA.



I don't know why I'm bothering to ask, but if you knew nothing of the
backgrounds of either man and you met them both at a party, which would

you
guess was the Rhodes scholar?


Probably not the one hitting on the fat chicks.

So? Bush got into Harvard because of connections


So? Clinton went to Oxford and received draft deferments because of
connections to influential people including a judge, the head of his local
draft board, and a US senator.




So? He could've gone to almost any 4 year college and achieved the same
thing. Why do you suppose he chose Oxford? Better food?

Yes, as a Rhodes Scholar.


Rhodes Scholars did not qualify for deferment through 2-S status when
Clinton attended Oxford.
He should have been 1-A.

Awhile ago, Harry posted the results of a poll which showed that the

18-29
year old age group supports Kerry. I think we've found the answer "why":


"A new Gallup poll says that 53 percent of Americans between the ages

of 18
to 29 do not know who the USA fought in Europe during World War II."

Democrats. The party for the uninformed.


The poll says nothing of what percentage of those polled were either
Republican, or Democrat.


That's a good point. If it were *all* Democrats, the number would have been
much higher than 53%.

Because of the CIA's long history of recruiting its assets at Oxford?

Awhile ago, Harry posted the results of a poll which showed

that

the


18-29




year old age group supports Kerry. I think we've found the

answer


"why":



"A new Gallup poll says that 53 percent of Americans

the


ages



of 18




to 29 do not know who the USA fought in Europe during World

War

II."


Democrats. The party for the uninformed.

The leader of your party is less informed than many high

school

seniors



and clearly demonstrates a lack of historical context when

sending


our


kids across the globe to fight and die for his ideological

whims.

Republicans worship the uninformed because "he's a regular

guy

like


me."



So which is worse, an uninformed electorate or an uniformed

President?


Duh.


They support Kerry because they don't know who we fought in

WWII.

OK.


Got



it. And, the tail light on my trailer went bad because I ran

out

of


baking



powder and forgot to put it on the shopping list.

I'd think the uneducated would cleave unto a president who,

while

standing



next to the prime minister of one country, said he was from a

different



one.



Or a president who, if you spun a globe with the names of the

various


countries removed, and asked if he could point out the

locations

of,


say, 20 countries...couldn't.

Just your opinion....certainly not fact though.




"The only thing I know about Slovakia is what I learned

first-hand

from


your


foreign minister, who came to Texas."-To a Slovak journalist as

quoted


by


Knight Ridder News Service, June 22, 1999. Bush's meeting was

with

Janez


Drnovsek, the prime minister of Slovenia.

ROFL!!!!!!!!



Do you suppose your moron could've mustered the brain power to

prepare


for a


state visit and know something his guest's country, or at the

very

least,


know that the person he spent time with was the head honcho?



Until he was appointed POTUS, Bush was probably the least traveled
president of the 20th or 21st Century. He hadn't been anywhere

outside
the US except Mexico, I think, and that was only to get drunk and

laid.


Similar to Clintons experience prior to becoming POTUS. Clinton

probably


has the edge on blowjobs and getting laid though.

Remeber that clinton dodged the draft by going to England.(back when
avoiding going to veitnam was admirable)....and managed a war

protest

trip

to Moscow at the same time




Lucky for him...finding England and Russia on a map would have been
difficult for him otherwise. ;-)



Once again, d.f., Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar.


And Bush was a Yale grad with an MBA.




So? Bush got into Harvard because of connections


So? Clinton went to Oxford and received draft deferments because of
connections to influential people including a judge, the head of his local
draft board, and a US senator.


And lying his ass off to get the scholarship....based on the criteria

Mr. Rhodes' Will contains four criteria by which prospective Rhodes Scholars
are to be selected:



1.. literary and scholastic attainments;


2.. energy to use one's talents to the full, as exemplified by fondness
for and success in sports;


3.. truth, courage, devotion to duty, sympathy for and protection of the
weak, kindliness, unselfishness and fellowship;


4.. moral force of character and instincts to lead, and to take an
interest in one's fellow beings.

The Rhodes is more about being P.C than actual scholarship
