I said but you went to Harvard for your MBA the same year as him. I said google it and to this day he hasn't admitted it. It's like people who love Bill Clinton so much that "He did not have sex with that woman" On talk shows I used to hear interviewers get that from Bill's friends and they'd say "But he admitted it" and they would argue with that! Some people are just plain nuts. Just like people say Clinton is not very bright. He's a Rhodes Scholar for crying out loud. It seems important to face the truth no matter what because at the end of the day, the tree does make noise when it falls even if we can't hear it.

If he does have any inherent intelligence, his oration betrays that. During the presidential debates, he looked like an absolute fool. And the jury is still out on whether he really wore a transmitter in the later debate.

Originally Posted By StillThePassHolder "I have no clue" Exactly. Bush didn't have a clue, nor does anyone else. It should scare people, even the dyed in the wool faithful a little bit, that Bush has so much trouble explaining just about anything. If this was a student taking an oral exam, they'd be flunked.

Maybe you got the Yogi Berra joke?
