Kerry Disparges the Troops

Proving what liberals really think of the troops. Here's the video and these comments via NewsMax:

"You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and you do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, uh, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.”

Not surprising. I had a teacher repeat basically the same thing when I was in school in the 1980's. They're both wrong. In fact, as this article reveals, the Armed Forces are probably smarter than our liberal-dominated public schools.

According to figures readily available on the Internet, 99.9 percent of the enlisted forces have at least a high school education, 73.3 percent have some college, 16.2 percent have an associate’s degree or equivalent semester hours, and 4.7 have a bachelor’s degree.
What’s more, over 85 percent of field grade officers have advanced degrees – 70.7 percent have master’s degrees, 12.1 percent have professional degrees and 2.5 percent have doctorate degrees.

Update: More from Michelle Malkin.
