If he did, we'd have someone on Zero's staff that knew something about economics, and we'd be in "Recovery Summertm" by now.

Is it time to remind them that W got better grades than Kerry did? Funny how they didn't bring something like this up in 2004. :lmao:

A couple of them do seem a little leery of the idea, given the secrecy with which the grades of Barry the Boy Genius are guarded.

There are plenty of well-educated idiots in the world.

In the military they're called "officers."


BTW - Bush had a higher GPA than Kerry.

Well, I got an A in graduate level economics.  And Perry has the right answer.  So apparently he has educated himself further on economics.

Now, if Obama's team would go back and really study Keynes, they'd realize they're doing it wrong.  Keynes, as wrong as he was, merely wanted to smooth out the business cycles in the economy, not destroy private business or wealth.  Obama and Krugman and all of the other Marxists have as their stated goal to actively attack businesses while in an economic downturn.  That's beyond Keynes' wildest dreams.  You cannot, today, accurately call Krugman or Obama or the libs in Congress "Keynesian".  They're Marxists.

  I'd like to know more about the course, knowing what we know about the echelons of higher education.  Was it a crazy Marxist professor, drooling over Communism?  I'd get an F, as I would walk out on him.
