Well maybe horny trumps judgement. I was in the Navy, I think I was an expert on the subject. Does not prove that less education is better by far. Lets see: Ingnored "Bin ladin determined to attack USA PDB", WMDs, Katrina(Brownies doing a great job), Stay the course, Fool me once....., Imagration, George W Idiot is doing fine for himself

I've always thought that common sense was not related to one's education or their IQ.

Deductive reasoning and/or common sense is something that has not been quantified or qualified, but it certainly plays a large role in how one behaves.

And an after-thought, I don't think that education and IQ are related. Someone can have a very high IQ and never go to school beyond that which is required; and someone with a moderate IQ (above 110) can probably get a PhD and be successful in their chosen career.

We need Bill O'Reilly and we need him now. Please, if you care about your country, email Mr. O'Reilly and let him know America needs him now.

My prayers are with all of you and our country. And to all the military around the world, thank you for everything you do. America loves you. Please do not lsiten to what the Liberals are saying about you and your efforts. Thank you.
if he could run for president, he'd do so ....but he's known for running his Mouth, and his argument(I call 'em arguments, they weren't talking points) with Obama don't do him any justice. He's an Old Windbag that needs to quit the media......

I love Bill, but I'm sorry he does not have the patience nor temperament to be President

NEWS BULLETIN: If you are creating a point by drawing divisive stereotypes (REAL Americans vs un-REAL Americans)... that's not very American of you. How do you divide people into 'Real Americans' and 'others' and then pull them together.

Furthermore... how do you even suggest a crackpot like O'Reilly, who's personal agenda is the generation and protection of his own wealth, would be suited for public office. If anyone in your lifetime has come to question your judgement in making solid, sound decisions, you can point to this thread as evidence of where it all went wrong.

wow. Bill O'Reilly is a propaganda smear-artist. you want him for president?
Please explain what you mean by "REAL" American? I'm so glad to be surrounded on CD by tolerant, non-judgemental people.
