This fits nicely with their little poll of a few days ago.

James Woods has a reported IQ of 180
he received a scholarship to MIT. Might be the smartest person in Hollywood.
Yet is a deranged supporter of GWB, the Iraq War and the GOP. And says shit like this:
Scratch a liberal, find a fascist every time.
When you give a bully your lunch money, he's still going to beat you up AND he's got your money. Obama's Iran deal is cowardice. Period.
I will be doing the narration for @CarlyFiorina's campaign film. So proud to support this remarkable woman and her historic campaign.
Go figure?
I think it's in the 160's nimrod, but yes, he tests pretty high.

12. Hollywood has a very low percentage of republicans
Although they are vocal. I guess they feel they need a voice sine they are so few.
Sine wave? What?

2. Why? What do you think IQ measures?
It is a reasonably good measure of scholarly success (largely because it measures the two things schools teach : verbal skills and visual skills. But it does not measure any emotional or ethical data, or any form of real-life intelligence.
Heh ..... tell that to 8-9 year-olds that test way above you primitives.

20. Sociopaths -- who lie, cheat, have no compassion for anyone in trouble or
danger -- can also have average, low or high IQs, just like anybody else.

45. Memorization and conceptualization
Raw mental horsepower. You're jealous aren't you?
Many very intelligent people have different political philosophies. Smart people aren't necessarily nice or compassionate.
As opposed to those who fake it for internet forums.....

59. Timed IQ tests
measure the alacrity Huh? with which test takers "solve" problems. I have a "high IQ," but I noticed a LONG time ago that often the most erudite observations are uttered by those whose IQs are "average" or "below average."
So, maybe IQ tests reflect our species' rather ubiquitous need to impose order on our universe (using math, naturally, the oldest cerebral game ever invented).
Maybe, we just need to take each individual on their own merits...
Unless they're Conservatives.
Now, the (D)Ummies begin to turn on their false idol ......

5. Intellect does NOT
automatically mean an individual has Common Sense. We know, we know
People with a much Lower IQ can be the Smartest people in the room
So he may be a person with the Highest IQ in Hollywood...but jimmy has already proved he is Definitely Not the "smartest".
But, he speaks in complete sentences and eschews rAndOm cApiTaliZatioN.

11. I agree
I agree, after all, who would you want operating on you? Someone with worthless book knowledge and experience or someone with common sense, common sense defined as they believe what I believe today.
Laughing too hard to comment.....

30. A university-trained surgeon with lots of book knowledge, thanks
Surgery is not a place for "what I believe today."
Yeah, I would think so.

8. Well, he's not smart enough to know what fascism is. He knows very well.
IQ just measures the potential to learn, not the amount that has been learned. IOW, despite the 180 IQ he's still a dumbass.
I'm sorry your diapers are bunching up.

13. So?
Science smarts does not equal political smarts or even common sense.
High-IQ scientists were genocidal Nazis.
I thought everybody knows this.
...and Global Warmistas. Why you no like sCiEnCe (D)Ummie?
And this little spitball fight:

35. Do you really have such a poor grasp of logic?
Your post is absurd and brings into question your intelligence.

46. Logic is not my strong suit
Logic is not my strong suit, my feelings trump all.
Are you saying my argument is a false dichotomy? I have no idea what that means but it sure sounds intelligent.
Where's our newest troll at? Come witness the raw, naked power of the (D)Ummie mind.
