I've seen nothing yet that proves this "Obama has a high IQ" nonsense. I say that as someone eligible for MENSA membership (I'm not much into clubs) just based on my ASVAB scores.

“She hasnt the intellectual preparation even at the most basic level of popular reading and general knowledge, as the Katie Couric interview during the campaign demonstrated.”
The snarky Couric interview demonstrated nothing of the sort. Palin was simply (and rightly) offended at the none-too-subtle suggestion that Alaskans are unsophisticated and unlettered. Palin not only reads, she wrote a best seller.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
I don’t know where to begin with this. But I’ll say one thing. Sarah Palin is smarter and better educated than the author if this feeble article.
The Couric interview? That was the result of McCain’s handlers’ malevolence and determination to lose the election. It was stacked, and her responses were distorted by selective cuts. Anyone sounds stupid if most of what they say ends up on the cutting room floor. What else could you expect from Katie Couric?

I've seen nothing yet that proves this "Obama has a high IQ" nonsense. Exactly. He strikes me as someone with average intelligence at best. Betcha Sarah's IQ is higher!
To: 2ndDivisionVet
which is more than Barack Obama, whose IQ is no doubt higher than hers, has yet to learn. BS
I have complete doubt about IQ of the the Commie in the White House.
We have NO PROOF he is at all intellectual but we have plenty of proof he is mistake prone and illogical.

Indeed. I don't recall any press releases that obama was invited to the Mensa Annual Picnic.

Oh yeah? Well just look at his SAT scores...or his papers from Occidental...or his work at Columbia...or all of his grades all through school and his records from Harvard...or...or...shit...
Why do we have a POtuS about whom we do not know:
1. Grade School records
2. High School records
3. Occidental College records
4. Columbia University records
5. Columbia thesis
6. Harvard Law School records
7. Harvard Law Review articles
8. Articles from the University of Chicago
9. Passport History
10. Medical records
11. Files from his years as an Illinois state senator
12. Illinois State Bar Association records
13. Birth Certificate.
14. Baptism records
15. Adoption records.
I’ve seen W’s dental records from AL, for cripes sake. This is absolutely pathetic...

What this amateur doesn't realize is that after 8 hours of taping, Katie Couric, editors, and Co. could make Albert Einstein look like an idiot.

Adolf Hitler put it best in that Youtube video: “George W. Bush got C’s. Obama probably failed lunch.”

Why don't these critics ever mention her record?
She has 16 years of political experience, and being Mayor or citycouncilwoman of any town is no small potatoes. You had to get elected to these positions, which she did.
No one handed Palin anything. Everything she accomplished, she accomplished on her own. That alone is more than enough to qualify her for the Presidency.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Palin is a work in progress. At the time she was yanked onto the national stage, she had mastered every challenge put before her from motherhood to reforming Alaska politics to the governorship. What she has in common with Bill Clinton is that both delivered long, flawless speeches after their teleprompters failed. Palin will survive in any setting she chooses to operate in. American liberals—particularly women—are intimidated by her because they suspect, on some level, Palin is everything they should have been.

Yeah.. she’s so dumb that when her teleprompter froze at the convention she gave her speech from memory and brought he country to their feet in applause /s...... sheesh, this she quit her job or she dised Couric crap is getting really, really old on FR.
To: USFRIENDINVICTORIA
If this article is for real, and not an April fools joke, then I’m glad to see that there appears to be an effort to actually look at her and not past her. I have no clue what Obama’s IQ is because he reads from a telepromter and we are not “entitled” to look at any of his records/grades. Is it because of his grades or because he is hiding who or how and where he got his student loans. Something smells, but it has since I read his alleged autobiography that Bill Ayers wrote for him.

Exactly right. Sarah worked for all that she's achieved.
