How many in the media could qualify as fighter pilots as Bush has done? How about zero! Bush is also far better educated than most journalists. Also, how many professors could qualify as fighter pilots? It never ceases to amaze how members of the lunar left who cannot spell, who are illiterate when it comes to history, are prepared to attack Bush's intelligence.

Not to mention, about zero in the media have an MBA from Harvard. They all know President Bush earned (you don't get those other than by earning them) one of the elite degrees in the world, and so they ignore that fact because if they didn't, they'd have to respect it.

Any way you slice it, he's got them beaten six ways to Sunday. The fact of it is, people who win the presidency tend to be extraordinary. Of course, to be more charitable than the conservative media deserve, the "Prince Hal lackabout becomes Henry the hero" storyline of President Bush's life can be an appealing one (no possible excuse exists for the Left press), and as the anti-Clinton, President Bush himself is so modest about his pre-government accomplishments, that as with President Reagan we will probably only much later learn of many of them.
