Who said anything about CNN?
Sounds like both you guys have been listening to too much Rush Limbaugh. Kinda jumping the gun with the liberal media crap.
I did read the ecoterrorist story on the Fox site. I also saw a report on Fox about the issue with the same ridiculous allegations. It would not surprise me if some other channels (especially CNN) ...[text shortened]... I being elitist? Yeah.
I just finished finals and am in no mood to play down to anyone.

Finally, I would remind you that having a high IQ does not make necessarily make you "smarter." A high IQ can facilitate the acquistion of knowledge, but diligent study and unwavering inquiry are the necessary ingredients.
Ronald Reagan's IQ barely topped 100, but he was a brilliant man, and a terrific leader (sadly, he led us in the wrong direction).
IQ measures memory, general knowledge, logic, capacity for abstract reasoning, and facility with numbers, and perhaps a little more. But it cannot account for every kind of intelligence that might lead to success.
Republicans and Democrats both have their share of the very bright (measured by IQ). No one really considers George Bush to be one, however.
The belief of some liberals that they are brighter than conservatives is an illusion spawned by the efforts Republicans have made the past two decades to appeal to, and win over the ignorant. It's a smart strategy.
Originally posted by telerionNo. I was assuming your IQ was about 30 to 40.
If you a claiming to have an IQ of 160, then I would first say, "I doubt it." Second, if this is a valid IQ score (not some lame brain internet test or self-administered exam then you in good company (well that depends on whether you consider me good company or not)

Originally posted by StarValleyWyWell, you're 0-1 so far. I find it amusing that the sum of your guess about my IQ and the IQ of your magical aforementioned turd is something between 90-100 (It was an IQ 60 turd, correct?), a total which you claimed would be sufficient to exceed your own IQ. While 90-100 is still within the first std. deviation from the mean, it's not a score to throw around smugly.
You are right. I am pretty good at observation though. Who needs to guess?

Sorry.
Anyway. Ever get the feeling we are off subject?
How did you enjoy the Factor last night? I assume you watched it?
Telemetrion,
What did you think of Bill's talking points last night? Did you like the replay of the 2002 clip that directly contradicted the claims of Phil Donahue? About O'reilly being "a right wing attack dog"? And "attacking Bill Maher"? When O'reilly rolled the clip showing his (O'Reilly's) DEFENSE OF MAHRER, I thought donahue would die.
He didn't. Too bad.
Hey telemuttion,
What did you think of O'Reilly's debate with Lt. Col. Thomas Raleigh ?
About the marine's shooting of the guy in the mosque?
Which points did you think were important? Which of the points of view did you agree with? And why?
I know you pay close attention. Give us your analysis here. Thanks.
TrailIons,
What about the Becket award this year? Do you agree with it's being awarded to Lake Washington High School? Up there near/in Seattle?
I think they need to find out if that is where pradtf teaches and shut it down if it is. 😉
I mean... Outlawing the viewing of Dickens? Because of? What and why? You tell me. You are a liberal just like these censors. Why must the story of Scrooge be banned?
Did you agree with O'Reilly on this? Why?
