Perhaps, the bottom line is that those people are not as smart as they think they are.
Depends on how you define smart. Gore scored a 1355 on his SAT's and his IQ is reported to be in the 130-135 range.

And for the record I don't think Bush Jr. is dumb he scored a 1206 on his SAT's. I don't know what his IQ is but given his SAT score I'd say it's not the 91 that been rumored on the Net.

So I don't think he's "dumb." But I also don't think he's honest.
