Sorry, I can't agree with that...and I have a fairly high IQ myself. I'd rather have someone a little more flexible with their planning than a complete moron unwilling to change his plan.

For the record though, I only voted for Kerry because I traditionally won't vote for a Republican (although I have on rare occasions). The typical Republican platform defies all logical sense. And I certainly wouldn't vote for a guy who fashions himself a dictator.

Words And Music By Tom Petty
It's good to be king, if just for a while
To be there in velvet, yeah, to give 'em a smile
It's good to get high and never come down
It's good to be king of your own little town
Yeah, the world would swing if I were king
Can I help it if I still dream time to time
It's good to be king and have your own way
Get a feeling of peace at the end of the day
And when your bulldog barks and your canary sings
You're out there with winners, it's good to be king
Yeah I'll be king when dogs get wings
Can I help it if I still dream time to time
It's good to be king and have your own world
It helps to make friends, it's good to meet girls
A sweet little queen who can't run away
It's good to be king, whatever it pays
Excuse me if I have some place in my mind

I THINK THE DAILY MIRROR IS ON PAR WITH THE WEEKLY WORLD NEWS!

Those states that voted for Kerry might have some pretty smart people.

Remind me, tho, never to take their advice on picking winners the next time I bet on football games, tho .

Still waiting to hear WHAT MAg and What web site to back up this BS

LMAO...the first five states just happen to be the Most liberal dem states (aside from California). Wonder exactly How they managed to get all these IQ's to come up with this "average". I bet they just asked everyone and knowing Liberal Dems of course they think they are so smart an gave thenselves higher IQ's

I hate to be a bubble burster here but I went to school in the south for a short time and the teachers there made an example of me constantly since I was from the north and was advanced for their education system. Personal experience of course, but makes the IQs seem pretty true to me. Of course I think Colorado should be closer to the top, but that is me being a biased Colorado native

Please..this is all BS...First, IQ tests are rarely given, they are not "college entrance exams" or "SAT tests" These test measure Mathamatical, problem solving, abstract thinking, and complex scientific skills.I doubt more then 10-20 percent of all US citizens are given a properly conducted IQ test in their entire life.
Second, earned income is all relative, Someone down in a southern state can make a lot less then someone up north and still be "wealthier" then the person making more but paying alot more in taxes and services and cost of living.

Sounds like who ever came up with this "propaganda" had an IQ of 10

The IQ numbers were originally attributed to the book 'IQ and the Wealth of Nations,' though they do not appear in the current edition. The tests and data were administered via the Raven's APT, and The Test Agency, one of the UK's leading publishers and distributors of psychometric tests. This data has been published in the Economist and the St. Petersburg Times

I posted above on the page that it is from the DAILY MIRROR, the UK'S version on weekly world news.

and I posted that ORIGINALLY it came from ...

that means the Daily Mirror copied it!

it is still hogwash.

Jesus!!! This is like pulling teeth ...

Yes it is hogwash ... I posted that too!!

The point of the exercise was to prove that what people post as truth can be manipulated and bent to each other's means.

So, as most people on her have done, question everything.

oh my bad I missed that post

S'cool ...

I agree with you, that is why I will look something up before I post it, I posted something here last week and included the websites where the info came from including CNN and someone still chirped that it was propaganda. so I don't think it really matters what anyone does people believe what they want!

Well, when there are still books in the educational system in the US that rewrite both the Civil War and the theory of evolution, is it any wonder that people like to make connections where no connections can theoretically exist?

The IQs sound about right, though, based upon the educational systems of the states they are located in. However, those IQs can't be rationally used to make a connection between intelligence and voting preference, because they are independent of one another. 45 years ago, a lot of those same states with low IQs had traditionally voted for Democrats.

the song i posted on page 1 explains it all


thanks don henley

hmmm.. interesting. This means, sadly, I am way above my state's average IQ.. but in 2004 I turned 17 on election day and was screwed out of voting but I did register. lol. 2008 I'm debating on voting for Kucinich. He seems like he'd be a great president.

Sabxisrad ,

I'm sure you possess an IQ "way above my state's average".

But voting for Dennis Kucinich is a very funny way of showing it.
