CNN Graphic about Bush & Kerry at Yale - "NUMSKULL AND BONES"
Edited on Tue Jun-07-05 01:37 PM by dzika
June 7, 2005

CNN used this graphic today to explain that Bush's GPA was 1 point better than Kerry's GPA in their first 3 years at Yale. The video wasn't really worth posting but I found the title to be interesting.



Even the crawl at the bottom of the screen is a little suggestive.

EDIT: corrected school to Yale (I'm not really sure which they said on the air)

3. They will do all they can to avoid real issues.

If they actually say Harvard, this would be even worse as it would be difficult for Kerry to have a GPA at Harvard. He never went there.

6. The way I heard it is they compared Bush's three years to Kerry's
Edited on Tue Jun-07-05 01:20 PM by dogday
first year. Said Kerry's grades improved over the following years so if they had used them, it would of looked bad for Bush. As usual they put their own slant on things. CNN has been pro-Bush pro-republican....

Why are they doing this now? Who cares?

14. The thing is, did bush actually earn the grades, or was it a
"Gentleman's C"?

15. "Why are they doing this now?" -They obviously have some left over
unused propaganda from the campaign, and since its always fashionable to bash Dems, why not?!
