To answer your question, Bush's academic records are a matter of public record. He released his records during his campaign for Govenor of Texas. John Kerry refused to release his until after he lost the election. My guess is that he didn't want to be compared to Bush academically. I can't say that I blame him.The general concensus is that Bush isn't that bright. But that doesn't mean that it is true. It doesn't mean that it isn't true as well. It just means that some people cannot see past their own hatred.

This country has a lot of problems to face. It always has. It always will. In order for us to face up to the challenges that lay before us, we have to keep the debate as intellectually honest as possible. If we don't, than we are no better than the politicians, regardless of party affiliations.

In regard to your comment about Bush porn sites, I am assuming you are talking about bloggers. I cannot comment on the academic achievements or failures of unknowns. What I will concede is that there are people in both parties that go too far. It is unfortunate. The free and open exchange of ideas is what makes this country great. For us to retain our greatness, we must see past our own ideologies. What ever happened to "Lets agree to disagree"?

While I may disagree with you, I will stand with you, hand in hand, and scream from the highest mountain for your right to say the very things that I do not believe. That is what patriotism means to me.
