As I said before, all the book learning in the world doesn't mean a damn thing if you don't have common sense and practical experience.

Almost ALL employers ask for GPA's for new grads, and transcrpts. My boss won't hire a new grad that has EVER had a "D".
People are always saying that we don't know anything about 0bozo. True. Has Palin released her medical records, GPA, or released a copy of her birth cirtificate? Has she used pot or cocaine? Does she believe in sex before marriage?
