Why so Secretive?

Whose I.Q. is higher Al Gore’s, John Kerry’s, George W. Bush or Barry Hussein Soetoro?

You’d probably be surprised that “W” is not the low man in this grouping. According to sources president Bush may only be surpassed by one name on this list, care to guess who?

If you guessed the former vice-president Al Gore you may be correct, but not so fast. Though Gore had an incredible hyped-up imagine of being smart , imagine isn’t everything. According to his college records he was a below average student. John Kerry whose I.Q. and academic achievements are reported to be less than president Bush's I.Q. and grades Kerry also attempted to project that he was always the smartest person in the room.

So it seems that George W. Bush was just as smart if not smarter than all of the above. (see stories here and here) I can hear your protest now, ‘Well what about president Soetoro, I know he’s smarter than Bush.” To which I ask you on what evidence do you base that speculation?

Thanks for the warning...

Sometimes it pays to do more than skim the comments.

One of them [the “Google Friends” tracker] will harvest your real email addresses and then flood you with spam and phishing emails.

Lovely, innit?

I so adore blog pimps.

They keep me from becoming bored by giving me hours of endless enjoyment, trying to ferret out all the nasty garbage dumped on my computers.

At first your tenuous grasp of English was mildly amusing and pimping your blog on FR an irritant.

Now it becomes apparent that your blog is not just a nuisance with nothing to say, but rather a malevolent presence that purveys exactly the sort of crap (trackers and malware) that people come to FreeRepublic specifically to avoid.

Maybe this is the only way to get the message across to you. Whenever I see you pimp your blog, I'm going to post the following -

Warning! Clicking on the link to this blog could result in the deposit of unwanted malware on your computer and severe compromise of your personal internet security.

(Is it really worth the risk, just to read this illiterate drivel?)

What av are you using that caught the stuff?

Its a known fact Hussein Obama was an affirmative action student.

Admin Mod. Please see posts 18, 19 and 22 from Salamander. This is wrong on so many levels.

One thing I am certain of in this world. IQ has little relationship to how good or bad a student is. I was a terrible student in grade school. Why? I was bored $hitless. When they got around to taking my IQ in about the 7th grade I told “Oh now we understand.”

[Bon mots]

Obama’s records are carefully hidden for a very good reason.

If he were half as smart as his propandists in the sycophant media make him out to be, his grades would have been made public long ago.

It is more common than you think. In fact it’s probably the main reason I object to blog pimping here on FR.

Even if you don’t have detection software, you can run a little test for yourself. Go to Internet Tools on your browser. Clear out all the cookies except for your e-mail, FreeRepublic login and that sort of stuff. (I normally have 6 or 7 “good” cookies that I keep, just for convenient access to sites like this one.)

Then click on a blog being pimped here on the forum. Just pick one at random. Return to your Internet Tools file and check the cookie file. You’ll be amazed at how much crap a single click will get you. That’s how these creeps make their money. They are getting paid for leaving that stuff on your machine, along with having you read the pop-ups and ads on their site.

Thanks shibumi.

I should probably make the point that not all bloggers operate this way.

FReeper Jeff Head, for instance. The only things you’ll find when you go to his blog are great, well researched articles and e-books that he’ll give to you gratis if you can’t afford them.

There are other stand-up guys who blog as well, it’s just that the creeps outnumber them - by a lot.

The Abine plugin for Firefox is a winner.

Not only does it tell what evil lurks there, it also allows you to block it and also delete the nasty cookies.

Another plugin for Firefox is “Cookie Culller”.
It, too, identifies what’s lurking on your machine and has an option for permanently blocking subsequent attempts for a site to deposit the cookies, again.

For the further, deeper cleansing of a computer, the paid version of Malwarebytes is invaluable.

As far as general AV/security, I use Zone Alarm’s premium internet security suite.

A criminal mastermind indeed.

Gore flunked out of Divinity school, quite possibly the single easiest course of study that exists in the undergraduate world. The notion that any writer could actually use "smart" and "Al Gore" in the same sentence is astounding...

I thought 'education' was the easiest...learn something new every day.

Gore flunked out of Divinity school, quite possibly the single easiest course of study that exists in the undergraduate world.

1. Divinity school is not an undergraduate course of study. In almost all cases it is a graduate school.

2. It certainly was in Gore's case as he had already graduated from Harvard and returned from a tour in Vietnam when he entered Vanderbilt University Divinity School.

3. I'm not sure that divinity school is so easy. Learning Greek and Hebrew sounds hard to me.

The notion that any writer could actually use "smart" and "Al Gore" in the same sentence is astounding......

BTW, this article, which goes into some detail on Gore's transcripts, also mentions that two IQ tests he was given in high school measured his IQ at 133 and 134.

Thanks, I am no techie. I use Avast, Microsoft SE, and Malwarebytes freebie. These were recommended by FReepers that seemed to be computer smart. I seem to have a clean machine as best that I can tell, I never see nor hear from Microsoft SE, but the Avast sets off an alarm from time to time when I hit some websites it doesnt like. I am always looking to learn more.

[Thank You Rush]

Even after reading all the comments, I still don’t know what he was trying to say here.....

“”hyped-up imagine of being smart , imagine isn’t everything””

[Salamander]

There’s lots of good security software out there.

Just avoid things that claim they’re gonna “fix your registry”.

They’ll “fix it”, alright....:)
