What unmitigated bullsh*t. When you look at the high schools in the "Red Counties," the ones that went to Bush, you see some interesting results. The schools have higher SAT scores, more students graduating, more going to college, less dropping out, and less going to prison, than the "Blue Counties."

By and large the Bush County populations are smarter, better, more law-abiding, than the Kerry County populations. That general rule reverses among those who have advanced degrees on college campuses.

It is just another example that people can be "too educated for their own good." It means that sometimes book learning drives out common sense, and the possessors of advanced degrees wind up being dumb as a hoe handle in the real world. (Having spent 22 years and counting in education, I have met many of the breed, and barely escaped that fate myself.)

And more productive.
