Only someone with a low IQ would believe that President Clinton has an IQ of 182. My impression of those presidents is that none of them were geniuses, but all of them except Ford were gifted.

How many people do you really know with an IQ of 92? I had a buddy who was a very nice guy, but absolutely dumber than a box of rocks. I could have a conversation with him, and it would really be two completely seperate conversations, me with my understanding (and also understanding his level), and he with his completely different, much simpler understanding (and oblivious to my level). I actually estimated his IQ at about 85, but there is no way President Bush could even hope to function as President at 92.

The smartest president of the last 50 years?

Perhaps talking on the phone and being, uh, otherwise engaged at the same time appears to be the epitome of intelligence to Mr. Press.

Have a look at this chart: http://www.eskimo.com/~miyaguch/combnorm.html.

It shows that Clinton's reported 182 IQ is at the 99.999985 percentile, or 5.13 sigma for the statisticians. Methinks BC's intellect is just a tad overstated.

Didn't you use this "Lovenstein Institute" in one of your spam spoofs?

The Lovenstein Institute is supposedly named for the "world renowned" Dr. Werner R. Lovenstein. However, I just did a quickie search of EBSCO Academic Elite, an online database of scholarly literature, and the only Lovenstein that I could come up with was a musician. If the good doctor is so world renowned, one would think that he would generate more hits.

What a dope. Obviously it is the always abusive and ad hominem Bill Press who isn't so bright getting caught up in a long debunked Internet hoax.

Additionally, the New York Times had a piece just prior to the 2004 elections showing an expert on IQ testing believes based on Bush's SAT scores, Al Gore's SAT scores and John Kerry's officer competency exams all of which can be extrapolated into determining IQ according to the expert, and he found using this method that Bush's IQ is around 125, Kerry's 120 and Al Gore's about 115. Read it and weep: http://www.nytimes.com/2004/10/24/politics/campaign/24points.html?ex=1256356800&en=50a1bcbb16e7cf21&ei=5090&partner=rssuserland

This is reminiscent of Bill Moyers' column on former Secretary of the Interior James Watt. Moyers, relying on third generation satire posted on a left-wing blog as fact, quoted Watt as saying: "When the last tree has been felled, Christ will return."

Moyers was forced into making a public apology to Watt for this libel.

LOL, one would have to have a low IQ to believe that GWB has one of 91.  It's just not rational thinking at all.

TYPICAL LIBERAL LAMEASS MEDIA: DON'T CHECK THE FACTS, JUST GO GO GO WITH IT IF IT MAKES THE PRESIDENT LOOK BAD!

The LameStream Media are fools.

Smart guys are always thinking of new things to put up interns butts.

Instant Messaging Intelligence Quotient (IM IQ)

http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0148.html

3.1 Discover Another User's IM IQ

Before chatting with another user over the network or adding that user to one's Jabber roster, it can be helpful to get a sense of how intelligent or unintelligent that person is. This is done by requesting the person's IM IQ from that person's server by sending an IQ get qualified by the 'jabber:iq:iq' namespace to the person's bare JID (user@host) rather than full JID (similar in this regard to the functionality of vcard-temp [2]).

Example 1. Requesting Someone's IM IQ

<iq type='get'
    from='kindanormal@example.com/IM'
    to='stupidnewbie@example.com'
    id='imiq1'>
  <query xmlns='jabber:iq:iq'/>
</iq>
    

The server then returns the person's IM IQ, expressed as a REQUIRED <num/> integer between zero and 256, and an OPTIONAL <desc/> containing a natural-language descriptive phrase associated with that range of integer values.

Example 2. Receiving Someone's IM IQ

<iq type='result'
    from='stupidnewbie@example.com'
    to='kindanormal@example.com/IM'
    id='imiq1'>
  <query xmlns='jabber:iq:iq'>
    <num>66</num>
    <desc>moron</desc>
  </query>
</iq>
    

3.2 Discovering One's Own IM IQ

In order for a user to discover his or her own IM IQ, the user sends an IQ get without any 'to' address.

Example 3. Requesting One's Own IM IQ

<iq type='get' id='myiq'>
  <query xmlns='jabber:iq:iq'/>
</iq>
    

Example 4. Receiving One's Own IM IQ

<iq type='result' id='myiq'>
  <query xmlns='jabber:iq:iq'>
    <num>83</num>
    <desc>dull</desc>
  </query>
</iq>
    

A user may not agree with his or her IM IQ as computed by the server (after all, everyone thinks they are above average). Therefore it is possible that a user may attempt to change his or her IM IQ by sending an IQ set to the server:

Example 5. Attempting to Set One's Own IM IQ

<iq type='set' id='myiq'>
  <query xmlns='jabber:iq:iq'>
    <num>143</num>
    <desc>genius</desc>
  </query>
</iq>
    

However, allowing users to change their own IM IQs is unacceptable, since it would make such information unreliable. Therefore, if a server receives such an IQ set, it MUST return a <not-allowed/> error to the user, and MAY further decrement the user's IM IQ as a result.

Well, I guess Bill Press is the moron, having fallen for a hoax that was exposed long ago. But even if all these IQ stats were true, it is a fallacy to claim that bad policy necessarily follows from a low IQ, and good policy from a high IQ. In fact, you'd have to be kind of stupid to think that.
