I qualify for Mensa. I don’t have a “degree”. Guess my knuckles still get skinned,eh? Of course,too,less educated means that one hasn’t gone through the traditional education system,therefore one must be less educated according to that perspective,whether it’s true or not.

I’ve met many people with advanced degrees who were highly knowledgeable and intelligent. Unfortunately,some of our most educated seem hardly able to use simple logic or show any intellectual honesty at all.

So the basic gist of this article is: smart people support Myth and dumb people support Sarah?

All righty then.

Yeesh

Romney is so "smart" he put his dog with diarrhea
on the roof of his car.

If Romney is the candidate this story will be on 60 Minutes.

"But the details of the event are more than unseemly - they may, in fact, be illegal. Massachusetts's animal cruelty laws specifically prohibit anyone from carrying an animal "in or upon a vehicle, or otherwise, in an unnecessarily cruel or inhuman manner or in a way and manner which might endanger the animal carried thereon. "An officer for the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals responded to a description of the situation saying "it's definitely something I'd want to check out." The officer, Nadia Branca, declined to give a definitive opinion on whether Romney broke the law but did note that it's against state law to have a dog in an open bed of a pick-up truck, and "if the dog was being carried in a way that endangers it, that would be illegal."

"Dog on Roof? What Was It Like for Romney's Pooch? - Scientists Say Dog Likely Experienced Wind-Whipped, Uncomfortable Trip - "Before beginning the drive, Mitt Romney put Seamus, the family's hulking Irish setter, in a dog carrier and attached it to the station wagon's roof rack. e'd built a windshield for the carrier, to make the ride more comfortable for the dog,".. Jordan Kaplan, the owner of Petaholics, a dog walking service in New York City,
and a lifelong dog owner and dog lover, said Romney's actions were uncalled for"


"Romney's dog - This is a distinction Mitt Romney probably could do without, but he is surely the first presidential candidate to be attacked for putting a dog with diarrhea in a carrier and tying it to the top of a station wagon. Romney's defense: Seamus liked it. [like the citizens under Romney's RomneyCARE, etc.?] "


"As the oldest son, Tagg Romney commandeered the way-back of the wagon, keeping his eyes fixed out the rear window, where he glimpsed the first sign of trouble. ''Dad!'' he yelled. ''Gross!'' A brown liquid was dripping down the back window, payback from an Irish setter who'd been riding on the roof in the wind for hours. As the rest of the boys joined in the howls of disgust, Romney coolly pulled off the highway and into a service station. There, he borrowed a hose, washed down Seamus and the car, then hopped back onto the highway."

"Story about dog on car roof comes back to bite Romney - 200 comments from readers complaining of animal cruelty"

Romney's bad behavior Exposed by Seamus

"Romney Loses Nomination Over Dog Abuse? - Romney was traveling that summer with his wife, five sons, and Seamus to his parent's cottage on Lake Huron. But hours into the ride, Seamus apparently suffered diarrhea, which ran down the back window of the car. .David Kravitz wrote on BlueMassGroup, a liberal blog. "It also strikes me as classic Romney: it solves a problem efficiently, in a business-like manner, and with no regard whatsoever for the suffering that the solution may cause."

you must have missed the last 3years as the Gop establishment demonized the hard working Gov Palin who achieved success by the sweat of her brow.

In fact if truth be told the only people demonizing hard workers is the ruling class because they place status above individual accomplishment.

As far as the poll goes it’s a push poll and totally bogus

The older I get, the more I’ve come to realize that college educated has little to do with intelligence.

I have a college degree and there’s no way in H-E Double Hockey sticks I’d vote for Myth Romney. I’d rather gouge out my own eyeballs with used forks from a leper colony.

Go, Sarah, Go!
