If they were any good, they’d be framed in gold and hanging on the WH Press Room wall.

You've nailed it! And where are all the photos of the young genius in cap and gown on graduation day receiving his diplomas from all these prestigious universities he supposedly graced with his scholarly presence? Don't families cherish such wonderful moments in pictures forever?

Perhaps Hillary is more to your liking.

There is a big difference between smarts, information and the ability to think quickly on one’s feet.

Politicians are usually so glib and rehearsed that people think they are a lot smarter than they are. Most of them are just high level used car salesmen. No insult to salesmen intended.

Obama’s a perfect example of that - when he’s on prompter, he does sound intelligent (unless you actually examine the substance of what he says).

Off prompter? A bumbling fool.

“Somebody please tell me why aspiring Republican candidates go on MSNBC or CNN and submit themselves to their stupid reporters and their stupid questions.”

I do not know if it holds true in politics but in Hollyweird the thought is that there is no such thing as ‘bad’ publicity. ;-)

An irrelevant question from an obscure cable channel.

The voters have set the standard for presidential qualification.

If you’re alive, you’re qualified.

Rick Perry is over qualified. He’s alive and kicking!

Kassie, are you smart enough to be a reporter?

Right.

Or, even better, 'Kassie, are you dumb enough to be a reporter? Let me see your press pass.'

“Hey guys, haven't you seen Perry's new hipster glasses. He's smart now!”

Newbie, I suggest you are a troll who will castigate every Republican candidate as your collective posts on FR since you joined are suspect.

“His response should have been:
‘Compare my college transcripts to Obama’s and ask me again.’”

BRILLIANT!!

about your preferred RINO.

You are barking up the wrong tree with Marcella. She's been here long enough to have a reputation, and she ain't a supporter of Rick.

You, on the other hand, are a newb with a posting history.

Doesn’t your IQ have to be above the top 5% of the population to qualify for Harvard?...Maybe, if you are white or Asian and don’t get your slot bought by Saudi Arabia.

Liberals ALWAYS demonize conservative leaders as either evil or stupid. Yet it is painfully clear that the pointy-headed elites are those who suffer the greatest dearth of common sense and leadership. Give me a leader who understands his/her limitations and surrounds himself/herself with experts on single subjects.

Obama’s IQ and shoe size are the same.

Marcella, we must strive to understand the newbie because Bettyprob is a special kind of stupid, and she looks down at Rick Perry since to her he's merely just plain stupid.

Not if your sur-name is Gore or Kennedy or you're sponsor is a billionaire Saudi Arabian Sheik.
