The one thing that George Bush got from the left was the fact that he did not enjoy reading. A lot of people don't either and most reading they do is for the purpose of navigating life such as reading a stop sign or the directions on how to cook things. Very few people that I know enjoy reading a novel as much as going to a movie. Yet, the left uses that like it is some kind of badge that makes you Einstein or something. They picked on Sarah Palin because she didn't read the NY times and Asshole lettermen told everyone he reads the NY times as if that made you smarter than anyone that didn't. Maybe the left wanted to know how much a person keeps up with current events but I hate to tell them this the internet is far better for doing that then print newspapers and print newspapers often have the same stories on current events since they all copy each other so it really never mattered whether or not she only read the local paper.
Just talk to any liberal on a college campus and you will find out that this is true. The extent of their qualifications of being an intelligent human being goes something like "I got a degree" and that is it. The sentence never continues after that and it just makes me think that the only thing they have is superficial titles and not real inner thinking that makes someone intelligent. We can tell if someone is intelligent or not and I kind of thought that Obama was kind of one of those NY liberals who went around with a PHD that he thought made him smart. He just copied everything he said right from the communist and NAZI manifesto. It was completely superficial and no original thoughts whatsoever.
The free market has decided college educated people are smart. They get paid a lot more than uneducated people. Companies don't go on their gut or a hunch, they go by results. Pretty hard to pretend you have a chemistry degree and go work in a chemical company. They know the first day.
This is one of those nonsense memes that conservatives like to tell each other because it makes them feel better about being uneducated and not reading, like Sarah Palin or Lying Donald. It is a gigantic amount of effort expended to make ignorance noble.
