With that information readily available from most
institutions of higher learning (most have the Oxford
English Dictionary in library collections) --- it reaffirms
both the quality and scope of our illustrious leader.
Apparently neither Ivy League Universities, including Yale,
nor anything his daddy (Georgie Senior) paid for in the
state of  Texas (does that make him a Texas Statesman)
understood anything that wasn't from Crawford.....but he
hasn't barfed on Prime Minister Blair's shoes yet.
And I got better grades (with less beer drinking than his
twin daughters, who just last week stopped having the Secret
Service agents buy their booze because they are now old
enough to get it themselves) when I was in college!
