WASHINGTON (CNN) -- President Bush and first lady Laura Bush will not attend the graduation ceremonies of their twin daughters later this month in order to avoid disruptions for families of the other graduates, the White House announced Thursday.


Hmmm...he doesn't seem to mind inconveniencing the people at his $1000 a plate fundraisers. I guess the kids just aren't a priority right now.

<font color=#007AAA face="courier new">That whole educational miracle in Houston and the rest of the state was a total fraud.

I tried tellin 'em how easy the TAAS was, but no one would listen. I mean, on an 8th grade test this question (with pictures!) was asked:

WHICH OF THESE DOESN'T BELONG?
A. Dolphin
B. Cat
C. Dog
D. Tree

I know this isn't what the topic is about, but the quality of the topic is dubious at best.</font>

I forget where I read it but I have seen it mentioned a few times, isn't Bush's IQ the lowest ever for a President? He ranked lower then his father obviously and way lower then most recent presidents. Education isn't too important to him it seems.

I'm pretty sure snopes has it up there.
