Extra credit time, kids: Can you spot the "C" student??

I seem to recall some low achieving kid named Einstein doing pretty well for himself, too -- and his grades were even lower than our president's.

And didn't Al Gore flunk out of seminary or journalism school or some such thing, costing him his deferment during Vietnam?

It's the old American success story. Hey, Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team as a sophomore, right? Some people manage to succeed in spite of themselves.

OK, now it's my turn.... ;0)

Neither of the Wright brothers had college degrees. Although both were excellent students, today they would be considered high school dropouts, as they lacked those diplomas as well.

Statistically, a persons college GPA has been shown to be an inaccurate predictor of their later overall success. With my GPA of 2.6, I represent that statistic.

I'm not suggesting that GWB is anywere near the intellectual level of the Wright brothers, but it is clear to me that someone as dumb as Bush's critics portray him to be could never complete the studies required before the national guard lets them drive one of thier multi-million dollar go carts.

Tuesday Trivia: At Yale, Bush and Kerry were both members of the same fraternity-like secret society, Skull and Bones

"If the wheels of time could be turned back six years, it is not at all probable that we would do again what we have done... It was due to peculiar combinations of circumstances which might never occur again."

Sheez, libs. Make up your mind. Is W a mindless idiot or is an evil mastermind bent on world domination? You guys are soooo confusing.
