The one of Bush holding the story book upside down is incorrectly labeled as a hoax. The photo is real but just after the photo, the president (or an aide..I forget) corrects the error and a more pictures are taken.
I remember this because of a lecture on media ethics given at the local college.

I would demand my money back for the class you took. Do people really think that the president would be dumb enough to do that? Seriously, even if you can't read you would notice the pictures (kid book so you know it has a bunch) being upside down.
Maybe the president naturally sees things upside down

He has never given any indication of more impressive intelligence so yes, I would absoultely believe he's that dumb.

I'd cast my vote for that, too. Until proven otherwise, he is that dumb. Besides - I saw that picture floating around a long time ago, and read a couple articles about it as well that stated just what that professor did.
