1. The GOP is wondering what is wrong with them

and the number one thing wrong is they don't value education or intelligence. They don't see that yet, so maybe I shouldn't give them a clue.

Our new First Families are excellent role models and will make a difference in many people's lives.

[leftyladyfrommo]

8. David Brooks even called it a malignancy on the Republican Party

This lacking in intellectual ideas.

[Tigress DEM]

12. They are ALL FOR Education -- but only for the RICH.

What is good for America and average Joe Six Pack folk is to put down the damn beer and the remote control and pick up a book for pity's sake.

If Joe Six Pack out their killing brain cells every night is our example of stellar living, we need new role models.

AND I agree, we have a good one in Jill Biden.

[Quantess]

15. They want their kids to go to COLLEGE, not necessarily get an education.

Going to college and being intellectual are not interchangeable.

[trotsky]

2. What a talented and brilliant person.

I think this group of Pres-VP and spouses surpasses even the Clinton-Gore era in terms of capabilities.

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

3. Lessee...repukes:

Sore-tailed cats, sociopaths, liars, guys who type one-handed in their mom's basements with their pants around their ankles, racists, used car salesmen, village idiots...

Yup. I am oficially quaking in intellectual fear.

[Eurobabe]

4. Jill is awesome, we both did undergrad at Villanova

She's got it all, brains, beauty and JOE. AND she's from the Philly area.

[Captain Hilts]

5. Yes. I'd like her to have a higher profile. Our people AND their spouses are tops.

ER: Isn't that grand?
FDR: Indeed it is, old girl!

[dynasaw]

6. Brains are Back

May this be the end of an era of ignorance.

[mzmolly]

11. I like it!

:hi:

[Eryemil]

7. Intelligent people in the White House. I'll be damned.

[Botany]

9. I have plenty of people to "have a beer with"

I want smart people running things...

BTW I doubt if Joe, Jill, Barack, or Michelle really want a beer w/ me
and you know what? I am fine w/ that.

10. Shortly after boosh was re-selected, Bill Maher asked,

"When did we decide we wanted Bubba down the street running the country?"

I realize there were election shenanigans in '04, but Kerry should have won by a landslide. Hell, look at this year - McCain/Palin still got 46% of the vote. What the fuck?

[goforit]

13. Outstanding humane person. A hero. She would make a great Sec. of Education.

[BR_Parkway]

14. What will they call her? Surely not the Second Lady

[jillan]

16. Hopefully they will call her Dr. Biden. She earned it, she deserves the respect.

[marmar]

17. well, we could have had Sarah Palin, B.A. in Underwater Basket Weaving...

... Anchorage Home Economics College.
