July 27, 2006 Parting Shot

This parting shot is dedicated to all those hundreds of people who emailed me about Bush’s IQ.
Okay, I’ll make a deal with you.
I’ll admit I was wrong. I goofed. I cited a study ranking George Bush as having the lowest IQ of any of the last 12 presidents. Bill Clinton, scoring the highest. As I later discovered, that study was bogus. There is no so-called Lovenstein Institute.
Again, I’ll admit I was wrong.
But you’ve got to admit: It sure is believable. Does anybody doubt that Bill Clinton’s the smartest - and George Bush is the dumbest? Just look at his record.
Iraq. That dumbbell took us to war to get rid of WMD that didn’t even exist.
The Middle East. He’s so dumb he doesn’t know the first step toward ending a war is for both sides to stop shooting.
Global warming. Miami will be underwater before he realizes there’s a problem.
The budget. He couldn’t balance a budget if his job depended on it. Too bad it doesn’t.
See what I mean? Who needs a study? It’s self-evident.
George Bush is not only the dumbest of all 12 presidents since World War II.
He’ll go down in history - as the dumbest president…ever!
That’s my parting shot for today. I’m Bill Press.
I love a loser/liar exposed!
What a hand-wringing leftist loon.
1 word
ignoramus
(Bill Press, that is 8-)
Wow, what a piece of work.
He or his wife must have inherited some money.
Bill Press: a total fraud. Does he have a graduate degree from Harvard, as does Bush? Oh, I know, Press thinks that D student Kerry and divinity school fail-out Gore are intelligent.

Where do you start with someone this stupid? All I can say is that if Bush is as dumb as Press believes, how come he keeps outwitting the Democrats who claim to be substantially smarter??

"OK, I'm a moron who fell for a five-year-old e-mail hoax because I wanted so badly to believe it and didn't bother to check it out" is hardly a stirring defense. Press appears to think that blustering about "non-existent" WMD (tell that to the Kurds) is going to help matters. It doesn't.
Yeah, I dimly remember Bill Press on CNN, too. Then he just disappeared. Or maybe he's on MSNBC. (Same thing.)
Who needs facts, I'll just make them up as I go along.
Sheesh ! Wonder why Press thinks we want the Israelis to stop before they've finished the job ?
Who is Bill Press anyway, the name sounds familiar, but I can' place it.
There is a lot more to each of the four points cited. Since the writer claims to be in the news business, he ought to know that. I've found, though, that our current crop of newsies are the least curious people around.
Mental giants they are not.
Try not to dig too deep.
