If Kerry was referring to Bush in his joke as being dumb, why did Bush get better grades at Yale than Kerry?

Question

Was Kerry trying to pull a Clinton to the American public?

More conspiracy theories by the left! Bush paid for his grades!! LOL The left is mental.

Answer 1

Well,,, how else is one to go to college if the education is not paid for?!?!?

I am paying for my grades. So, is the federal government. If my parents were rich, they would be paying for my grades.

At least Pres Bush finished his education with a Master's.

What did Sen. Kerry do?

What is worse than what Sen. Kerry has said, how ever he meant to say it, is the intense silence from the Democrat party. They must support his statements that President Bush sends stupid people to Iraq or only stupid people join the military and are then sent to Iraq.

If you have any doubt whom to vote for, this is your wake up call.

Answer 2

Bush has a college degree and an MBA. Does Kerry?

Bush's IQ tested about 5 to 10 points higher than Kerry's in the military. This was dutifully reported by the media, AFTER the election.

If somehow Kerry misspoke this week, he sure as heck did not when he accused our troops of atrocities in Vietnam and of terrorizing women and children in Iraq. He has a funny way of "misspeaking" - maybe a Freudian slip?

Why was his photograph posted in North Vietnam's museum commemorating the war?

Which country was Kerry fighting for back then?

(I don't know these sites, but if someone can dispute the FACTS presented, let's hear it.)

What do our veterans think of Kerry? I think we know.

Who do the terrorists want to win the elections? We all know who.

Kerry served in Vietnam - yes, he's a combat veteran. So was Timothy McVeigh. Guess what? Neither deserves our respect.

I am so outraged by Kerry that I almost can't refrain from vulgarity. But he's just the tip of the lib/Dem iceberg. They're all trying to shup up so as not to let the American people know what they really believe, but the venom slips out. Why do the Democrats constantly have to hide their real views and pretend to be moderates in order to get elected? Why all the bile directed at our soldiers instead of at the people shooting them and blowing them up???!!! Is this the Twilight Zone?

I pray that people don't turn the country over to these scum. But honestly, I'm not optimistic. This loser should have received no more than 30% of the vote in 2004, but he got 48%. In an earlier era, he would have faced prosecution. Ask a person who lived through WWII how FDR would have handled this. Bush is far from prefect, but this is NOT your father's Democrat party, folks. WAKE UP!!!

God help us.

I am absolutely livid. Kerry is filth.

Answer 3

it is what you're flapping your gums approximately! How undesirable, a prevalent scandal. Bush became too 'smart' to connect the militia too, wasn't he? Boston Globe: "inspite of his sluggish initiate at Yale ...Kerry became a perfect student at Naval Candidate college, command a patrol boat in Vietnam, graduate from regulation college, and develop right into a prosecutor, lieutenant governor, US senator, and presidential candidate. Like Kerry, Bush reportedly suffered by way of a confusing freshman year and then pulled his grades up."

Answer 4

He didn't. Bush "graduated" with a C- average. That's just barely graduating.....the worst case scenario would have been Kerry had a C- average as well. Now, consider that Bush has an IQ just above that of a fungus, so its obvious Kerry had to do better. Let's face it - there are few people in the world who are more stupid than Bush.

Answer 5

Amen! Kerry is the last one to be talking when it comes to belittling the president's intelligence!

And don't forget - He ALSO voted for the war, and then voted against providing funding so the troops can have new body armor. He is just as responsible as Bush is for getting our country into the situation, and instead of trying to be constructive all he does is pretend his vote was otherwise, criticize the president, and use the troops as political fodder!

Answer 6

At a hastily arranged news conference in Seattle, Kerry said: "I apologize to no one for my criticism of the president and of his broken policy."

Kerry said the comment in question was "a botched joke about the president and the president's people, not about the troops ... and they know that's what I was talking about."

It came during a campaign rally for California Democratic gubernatorial candidate Phil Angelides. Kerry opened his speech at Pasadena City College with several one-liners, saying at one point that Bush had lived in Texas but now "lives in a state of denial."

He then said: "You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq."

That, Kerry said, was meant as a reference to Bush, not troops. Kerry said it is the president who owes U.S. soldiers an apology — for "a Katrina foreign policy" that misled the country into war in Iraq, failed to adequately study and plan for the aftermath, has not properly equipped troops and has expanded the terrorist threat.

"I'm sick and tired of a bunch of despicable Republicans who will not debate real policy, who won't take responsibility for their own mistakes, standing up and trying to make other people the butt of those mistakes," he said. "It disgusts me that a bunch of these Republican hacks who've never worn the uniform of our country are willing to lie about those who did."

Answer 7

Its obvious from listening to the remarks Kerry was talking about the troops. His arrogance and condescending attitude is exactly what Kerry is made of. He was a disgrace as a soldier and is a dishonor as a senator.

Answer 8

son of a ***** ,now the Dem,s are going to pieces,just what would they do with a president like Kerry,oh my god ,like on the 70s show BURN bbbuuurrrnnn slick sticken dem,s

Answer 9

Bush was smart enough to beat Kerry. That's all that matters.

Answer 10

Because Kerry didn't have a father donate a million dollars to the school to get him admitted, and then another million when it was time for the diploma to be issued. Where have you been?
