Revision: "While President Bush has a good heart, he was obviously horribly miseducated at Harvard."

Your revision does not reflect Pat's declarative statement that Bush was unfortunate to have been miseducated at Harvard.

Besides that, the nuns who educated Pat would not have taken kindly to those double adverbs of yours.

LOL...should have stayed away from this one. ;-)

Pat's initial phrase sounded stilted to me in written form, especially for a sentence that was a dig at the President's level of education.

If I was wrong, I was wrong. I'm not an English teacher by any means.
