People in Glass Mansions shouldn't throw Stones

What Senator Kerry said was terrible and inaccurate to boot as many who join the military especially those who get into the highly selective military academies are good students. Even assuming Senator Kerry meant to poke fun at President Bush for not studying hard (which seems to be the case) that is still ridiculous and hypocritical although admittedly not nearly as offensive. Senator Kerry it turns out had slightly worse grades at Yale

In general, it is kind of odd that a man that graduated from: Andover, Yale, and Harvard Business School has had his intelligence continually questioned. While President Bush was not the greatest student and connections obviously helped him get into the aforementioned schools, it is likely that he learned something along the way.

Furthermore, all Senator Kerry had to do was apologize but instead his initial reaction was to lash out at his critics in equally offensive language. Democrats running for Congress and the Senate in this election cycle have made an issue of President Bush's performance in the oval office, this incident illustrates that the Democratic replacement would have been worse.
