something that should have precluded his earning a bachelors degree from Harvard, much less a masters.
The focus was on his attendance at Harvard, but, yes, his undergrad school was Yale, he was a legacy admit there.Pat, I'm pretty sure that the Prez did his lowly undergrad work at one of the lesser schools...Yale, I believe.
I know of no reliable measure of the Bush II IQ, I've seen a comparison of what was alleged to be his SAT score with Al Gore's SAT score, both were within a few points of each other.FWIW, I think he got this country into a horrible mess into Iraq. However, I doubt that his intellect had anything to do with that. You might recall that Bush's IQ is higher than Kerry's, and, I'd venture a guess, higher than Pat's.
IQ scores mean nothing. I have a 162 IQ (or at least I did in high school, I feel a little dumber now) and I am a total bum.I know of no reliable measure of the Bush II IQ, I've seen a comparison of what was alleged to be his SAT score with Al Gore's SAT score, both were within a few points of each other.
Mossad false flag operation sounds more like it.
Uh-huh. I've never had an issue with America. The US government has never been America, isn't America now, and will never be America. I'm a patriot for America.The willingness to believe the worst about our country, and to be so obsessed with hatred for our President that one is ready to take the side of our enemies and assume we are at fault is really a measure of the absence of patriotism and self-hatred so many on the left seem to possess.
The incident was a non-event. Several boats under Iranian control were lawfully operating in Iranian coastal waters, that by International law with which they do not agree are available to the US Navy. The intimidation is on the part of the US navy, not Iran. What was it, five fiberglass speed boats vs. the two carrier groups operating in the area with a compliment of about 200 combat aircraft. I'm shaking from fright now.If you truly believe that this incident was somehow staged or faked by our U.S. Navy, and that this is typical behavior for our government, I assume you are already packing your bags and leaving for what you believe to be a better place to live.
America faces an inconvenience from Islamic radicals, it is threatened by US government encroachments on our freedoms and liberty.We are facing a real threat from Islamic extremists who mean us harm, and I for one would welcome the America-haters to leave this great country and let those of us who love America and all that it represents stand up for her.
Could have been, but is not. Could still be, but for false patriots loyal to government and not to America.This country is not perfect, but it is the last great hope of mankind, and undoubtedly the greatest nation on the face of the earth.
24 years. Not quite as many as I did, but close.I have nothing but contempt for the cowards who so fear for their well being that they are ready to throw this nation under the guns of our enemies so as to not have to stand up like men and fight. God help us if those of you that I am describing are more than a sick minority of our citizenry. I am proud of the 24 years I served in the U.S. Army, and though I am now what most would call an "old man" I still have more fight left in me than you losers who hate my nation.

1. What factors caused the commanders to perceive a threat from the speedboats.
2. How the perceived threat from the speedboats changed during the incident, from the beginning, to the middle, to the end of the incident.
3. What factors caused the commanders to not fire on the speedboats.
4. If the commanders were somehow "derelict" in their duty by not firing, please tell us exactly when they should have fired at the speedboats.
This ought to be very interesting, I'm sure I'll learn quite a bit. Thanks!
