IQ inversely proportional to presidential ability?

[linear]

Anyone who believes this widely-debunked report needs to have their own IQ checked.

I'll take "Junk Science" for 400, Alex.

[Blueflag]

IQ does not translate into either wisdom or principles. Just look at the list.

[Brilliant]

Jimmy Carter gets a 176? I think these researchers should have someone check their IQ.

[RexBeach]

Love those Lovensteins! Seems they're a mite slewed to the left, ay?

[samtheman]

This whole article is an IQ test. If you believe it, you failed.

"No president other than Carter (D) has released his actual IQ, 176. Among comments made concerning the specific testing of President GW Bush, his low ratings were due to his apparent difficulty to command the English language in public statements, his limited use of vocabulary (6,500 words for Bush versus an average of 11,000 words for other presidents), his lack of scholarly achievements other than a basic MBA, and an absence of any body of work which could be studied on an intellectual basis."

are you kidding me? this is how they are rating their iqs?

clinton with a 182? what a joke... no agenda here.

[wideawake]

The "Lovenstein Institute" is a joke.

As in an actual gag, not a real thing.

Thanks for the heads-up, just had a link emailed to me and didn't even check good old snopes.

Another Piece of Sh*t article written by some left wing liberal moron making some voodoo crap based on what he sees in his wet dream. Notice the worst 2 Presidents in the list Carter and Clinton have the highest IQ although there were a total joke and absolute failure as Presidents.

[jveritas]

LOOOOOOOOL... very good one :)

[mnehring]

This is an old hoax..

[Plutarch]

Apparently, the scoring system deducts 30 points for having an (R), and adds 40 for a (D)

This is probably believed hook, line and sinker by loony lefties.

[Ouderkirk]

More evidence that liberals are so much smarter than the rest of us, why bother to have elections. Why not since Bubba is the smaterst of them all just cornate him king? /sarc

[rhombus]

People with low IQs have way too much faith in IQ tests. ;-)

[KYGrandma]

Carter was near the top of his Naval Academy class, and was able to pick nuclear subs. Can't remember what his number was. If I come across my alumni book I will let you know. Also, I am not a Carter fan. Even the alumni wouldn't endorse his for President, they chose Gerald Ford.

[showme_the_Glory]

The ones with the high IQ's are the ones with velcro instead of laces on their shoes.

[Stultis]

An obvious hoax seeing as how the folks at this "Lovenstein" place failed to rank President Josiah Bartlet (I.Q. 234).
