States Ranked From Smartest to Dumbest

The smartest state in the union for the second consecutive year is Massachusetts. The dumbest, for the third year in a row, is New Mexico.

These are the findings of the Education State Rankings, a survey by Morgan Quitno Press of hundreds of public school systems in all 50 states. States were graded on a variety of factors based on how they compare to the national average. These included such positive attributes as per-pupil expenditures, public high school graduation rates, average class size, student reading and math proficiency, and pupil-teacher ratios. States received negative points for high drop-out rates and physical violence.

Bush won largely due to the high turnout from the religious right. These are the same people who generally regard men who have sex with prostitutes (that means YOU board member) as "deviates," "perverts," "degenerates," "rapists," "pedophiles," etc. They are very much commited to keeping prostitution illegal and are also opposed to the legality of erotica, strip clubs, making birth control available to young people, sex education, and the existence of boards like this one. They have even turned against a Republican Senator, Arlan Specter, because he doesn't agree with their views on abortion.

Be careful what you wish for--and be careful who you get in bed with.

Gee, curious what are you trying to say? That the liberals don't use their brains? You may have a point. And they are losers. You have another point.

And just what is this "religious right"? A nebulous term, spat out by the losers who can't accept defeat. Have the Dems devolved to the status of an ordinairy hate group? Keep it up, my good leftists ... 2008 is already in the bag.

Keith Olbermann will be addressing the fraud issue in regard to Florida and Ohio on Countdown tonight. He advises Senator Kerry not to leave the country. He also makes note of the fact that concessions are not legally binding actions.

LOL, from the Al Gore school of class.....

OTB

Wait and see

I for one, with a serious disliking of Bush, feel as though M. Bush can go 1 of 2 ways. He can either continue his "evil ways" with an "I don't give a shit attitude" or he can think about his place in history, quickly wrap up the insanity in the mid-east, and concentrate on mending international relations and improving the economy in the US.

<<< just my 2 cents.

I hope he gets Iraq straightend out one way or another.
I hope he continues his "I don't give a shit attitude". I happen to agree with im on that one. Why should we give a shit what the rest of the wolrd thinks? if North America ever would have cared, we would still be an English colony.
