this statement is contradicted by bush's refusal to show all of his national guard records and his harvard records.

i'll take your word on the stool sample tho.

The Talk of the Town: Dept. of Aptitude (w/Alexandra Robbins) : The New Yorker

so, does anyone know if bush voluntarily released any school records and, if so, have any links to show exactly what the documents were?

Another one of these? Look it up on G00GLE,

Here's his transcript:

George W. Bush Transcript

And its pretty much common knowledge that they were leaked.

And yet, he was proven to be a better student than john kerry.

The left has themselves to blame.

Claiming that one is "the most intelligent president in history" will get people trying to disprove it.

As if we need proof that he is a simple minded, pot smoking alcoholic crackhead.

what you linked to was what the new yorker released, not the white house.

Really, though, his college records were none of our business and Obama's college records are none of our business.

I agree with your last statement, however, I seriously doubt that Yale is *that* much harder.

Yep, Bush was a legacy student--which is basically affirmative action for the wealthy. No other way a C student gets into an elite Ivy League school like Yale. Funny how we never see the right rail against THIS kind of preferential treatment.

Let's see, GW Bush was a mediocre student at Yale. Known for heavy drinking. Used the influence of his Dad to get into the "champagne brigade" to avoid combat in Vietnam and even went AWOL from that for a year or so.

We know all we need to know about that idiot.

the majority of the requests for obama's college records are to see if he registered as a foreign student. this comes from the belief that an april fool's day prank was fact.

snopes.com: Barack Obama Was a Foreign College Student?

i've yet to see any mainstream conservative suggest that obama did not do well in school..... with one exception, donald trump ( and i doubt any rational conservative would want trump representing their beliefs ).
