Didn’t Lurch say pretty much the same thing:
“You know education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.”
coming from money and being a silver spoon brat makes it a lot easier to get that education so you can make an "effort to be smart". Obviously it didn't work for Kerry
I trust the intellect and the morals more of a guy in Iraq than any PHD anywhere.......
