Which, is why at the time it would have been useful, and now is just
pointless trivia.

Before the election the SAT scores for both men had been released.
Bush's was higher, but they took the SAT in different years so
there is not a direct correspondence. IIRC, Bush's SAT placed
him at about the 85th percentile, well above the average student
taking the SAT that year, though possibly near the bottom compared
to other Yale students (other than Kerry!)

As you may recall during the debates, at one point Bush began
to make a very specific comment about the types of materials
that could be produced in teh North Korean reactors, but
stopped--(he may have been speaking out-of-turn). While
Bush clearly is no 'nucular' engineer he seemed to have some
practical technical knowledge.

Obviously Bush is not a dumb as he sounds. Aphasia aside, it
seems he likes to act dumb to lull people into misunderestimating
him.
