"Don't worry son, you can always fall back on your looks" said his dadAlready editorialized on
TSC website, and reported by the fourth estate in general-Sen. John Kerry's grades have been obtained by the Boston Globe.Sen. Kerry apparently had to play this tactic to hide his grades in order for a Pyrric Victory, but was hesistant to release his military record, as the two were cojoined. This, of course, backfired, as the
swift boat veterans were free to question his combat experiences, leaving the Junior Senator unable to defend himself without a leg to stand on, as he wrongly thought military service would outweigh a mediocre GPA. Surprisingly, his total GPA is lower than that of The Leader of The Free world, replete with four D's freshman year. Kerry's excuse is that he was too busy pursuing extra-cirricular activities such as, Politics, SCUBA diving, rifle, and ummm, flying. Yet the man somehow was able to qualify for
Naval OCS out of school and earn a commission and gain entry to
Boston College Law School. Two outstanding programs that nowadays would require a GPA much, much higher than the esteemed Sentor has demonstrated in his time at Yale. Yale in their weakest of defenses, claims this should be adjusted to a +10 rating in today acadmic enviroment due to grade inflation. Nice job of the Elis falling on the sword for their boy. If this doesn't smack of privilege, then I don't know what that word means. Before a reader opines about my hating on John Kerry (perhaps becuase of my own denial on entry to Naval Officer Candidate School?), it should be noted that my roomate and good friend was the Senator's personal assistant for four years until his bid for election fell short. Would that have meant a Naval Commission at last, for myself, or a cushy job at
the NIH merely through associated nepotism should have his candidate won? We will never know the answer to a question never asked. The information presented here is strictly for edutainment value at this point in time.
