    Bush says stupid things, but many of them are a result of his poor speaking. Forgetting your major? I'm not even going to say that's dumb, I'm just going to call it weird.

    The authenticity of this "quote" is rather dubious.

    Sorry, Buck. I believe the correct term is "Dubya-ous."

    Batman, we haven't been fed the whole lot... yet... but of all the candidates, Clark and Dean strike me as the most honorable men.

    I'm open to Clark, simply b/c he seems incredibly straightforward. I can vote for a guy (ie McCain) even when I disagree with them on a number of issues (and as you point out, we don't have Clark's spiel yet) if that person strikes me as an honest person.

    ps, your mindset about Sharpton would be fine... if Sharpton weren't a total crook.

    I wonder if she remembers ever being arrested before.

    Moseley-Braun forgetting her college major is dumber than anything Bush has said. Prove it.

    edit - it cannot result from his poor speaking skills, but rather something stupid as I don't know what my college major was.

    While I would think it really strange to not remembers one's major, I could possibly see a situation where such a thing could happen. If, for example, she considered several majors, or had two majors that were very similiar in their required courses and she knew that she was planning on continuing to graduate school so the undergrad major was more of a formality. She did immediately go on to Law School after finishing undergrad and may have considered her undergrad studies to be a "pre law" program (or perhaps the school funneled pre-law students into a major that included lots of history and political science and people didn't mention that it was officially a "political science" major)

    But even with that explanation, it still seems weird to just not remember.

    I actually had a similar situation this weekend. RM95's Girl and I were at a firm function, and a group of us ended up talking about undergrad. One of her fellow attorneys, only four years out of undergrad, had to take a minute to recall his major. I think with those who go to law school, especially those who know the entire time that they were planning on law school, the major you pick isn't really important, so I can somewhat understand how you may forget it.

    Still odd, though.
