I can't remember WHERE, but I recent;y read here on Hip Forums, that G.W. Bush's IQ is only 91????? We're always taking IQ tests here at Hip, mine was 134. And I think the level is 75 to be legally Retarded? (No disrespect to those with Downs intended!) If it's true, this info FRIGHTENS ME! GW is pretty much in charge of the FREE WORLD! He can barely tie his shoes and he runs the US Nuclear Defences???? Hold me! I'm SCARED!!!!!!!!!!
91 is within one standard deviation (sd = 15), so all that really means is that he is below average intelligence -- which should be no surprise to anyone. But should you be scared? I'd say probably yes. [edit] and by the way, an IQ of 134 puts you 2 sds away from the norm, placing you in the top 2.5%-ile. And you can't really trust those online tests. Most of them score very high in order to entice you to buy more thorough test results from them.
I don't think Bush is as dumb as he appears. I think it's more of an act than anything. Even if he was bordering on retardation, it wouldn't matter because Bush is just a puppet anyway.
If you're referring to the story that I think you are (that some group estimated the IQs of the last however-many presidents, with Clinton at 182 and Bush at 91), it was shown to be an internet hoax.
0 d4 n3w n00b! you must be a math genius. Defiantly the person I want running my country.. BTW did you take this test online or at a MENSA FACILITY?
If it is any solace for you, to quell the fear and uncertainty, just remember that both of his opponents, Gore, and Kerry, had lower S A T scores. So if he is a 91, then Gore and Kerry are even worse. lol I cant see Bush at 91, someone said he isnt as dumb as he appears... I think that to play dumb convincingly for a long time takes real brains, and I'm not joking. I could not imagine any of the three men above being below 120.
Well, Kermit, I'm certainly not good at math. The test I took was one of those online deals that someone here at Hip Forums posted once. I don't claim to be any kind of genius. I don't remember being officially tested.
where did this theory come from he's ACTING DUMB? that takes a real complex intelligence and frankly...have you ever heard him speak?. that's not an act..that's a brain...malfunction...kkrrzzzzzz.....does...not..compute...eruuuhh...terroists....america the fortress....uerrhhh....spawazping...bust.

I doubt if Clinton's IQ is quite that high, but I bet it is among the highest ever for a President. He couldn't keep it in his pants, but he and Hilary are both incredibly bright.
While that IS true, Matthew, I simply find the idea of the ruler of the free world having an IQ that low, is frightening to me. I mean, he has access to the red button.
we have a saying here in texas.. Boy you couldn't pour piss out of a boot with instructions on the bottom! As for the cop. from http://whosarat.com Mattinvegas! Take a real test! before you talk shit about Mr. Prez!
are you mad??? george bush is as thick as awooden plank with a lead centre, coated in a tonne of industrial cement. he is a gorilla, a lowly evolved human.
Bush isn't stupid, the 90 sometihng IQ test has been proven many times over to be a hoax and if you look for Bush's SAT scores, they're always listed somewhere between 1240-1320 on every site I've seen, which is above the average of 1020 for them. To keep calling Bush a dumbass is to just further play into him.
Why am I stupid? For calling someone a bigot for being bigoted against Texans? For giving someone the digital finger for implying that I am stupid because of the state I was born and raised in? For not being a pussy apologist like you? I am a Texan. I was born in Texas. I was raised in Texas. My family is from Texas and surrounding areas going back many generations. I have lived in Texas for 95% of my time on this earth. I happen to like living in Texas and as soon as I finish school I will return, and I am not stupid. As a Texan, I happen to take offense to the myth that George Walker Bush Junior is a Texan. The Bush family is a New England family. George Walker Bush Junior was born in Connecticut. The Bushes moved to Texas to make money in the West Texas oil business, nothing more. George Walker Bush Junior likes to pretend he is a Texan because it gets him votes. So, to Kermit, you are simply a pussy apologist who accepts insults from ignorant bigots and says "Thank you sir, may I have another?". To whomever gave me that blank neg rep, you are a reactionary coward. And all of you damn fools who buy into the rediculously retarded 'bushisms' are just dupes, don't you realize that in the public's eye it is far better to be a retarded fool than an evil genius? Calling that New England asshole a retarded redneck just got him re-elected. When will you learn?
