IQ and Voting

This has been making the rounds on the internet lately. At the bottom, it links to this and says the data “correlates somewhat.” Sure, if by somewhat, you mean not at all.

The chart using the data linked to looks like this.

Now, stop posting and e-mailing this to people. Calling conservatives stupid is wrong (factually, not just ethically), and just makes all liberals look bad.

I saw that chart earlier today and thought the same thing. This president got re-elected at least partially because he (and those who support him) repeated lies or at best distortions of the truth. We all stood up and said how wrong this is. To spread this chart around would be the same level of nonsense. While it would nice to think that only stupid people voted for Bush, its not true. We’ll be better served focusing on finding a way to combat the politics of bigotry and fear.
