p.s. - since Mrs. Obobo left for DC, the position she held was not filled - it was eliminated.

Funny how that works.

At least Palin worked.

The Obobo's (like all liberal socialists, suckle from the teat of other people's money).
Is that how politics works out there in Kansas?

Snopes says it is false but reading it is funny when you remember how Palin was put down for attending so many colleges. Obama did the same thing and had starts and stops in his education but no one touches him or puts him down about it. Double standard but it's allowed when you are----OBAMA.
Ahhh but he gives a good speech which pulls the wool over the sheeples eyes.

Sarah Palin went to college in Hawaii with proceeds from a beauty pageant scholarship.

This is the sort of gratuitous crap that we've become to expect from a certain segment of the Palin supporters when they've got nothing else.

And by the way, during the time SP was in college, there was so much state money available in Alaska for college students that anyone who wanted to go could, no matter how poor, and it was available to resident students who wanted to pursue their educations out of state. That's how so many of them ended up in Hawaii paying out of state tuition then. Of course a lot of them came home during the summers and worked to help pay for school, and Sarah worked in a salmon cannery one summer.

Did Bush's family ties get him into yale?

What wealthy/influential family ties got Obama into Columbia and Harvard?

The bias in those statements is palpable.

Meanwhile, Obobo the Socialist Clown went from a pennyless, near homeless Columbia U student, to a world globe trotter visiting such paradises as Pakistan, all on ??????'s dime?

Obobo is shadier than the mystery man in a spy novel.

Way to fail on logic.

The poster you are referencing did not say anything about "any liberal", or "any conservative." They are referring to Bush/Obama. There are quite a few well educated/respectable conservatives out there, but they are certainly the minority among people with post graduate educations.

It is an undisputed fact that Bush got legacy points, which by their very definition means he relied in part on family ties to get in. Obama certainly cannot be said to have had such family ties.

It is also clear that Bush graduated with gentleman's Cs and considering Obama gained admittance to Harvard law, chances are he did a bit better then a C average.

Btw Bush ended up lost his flight status and ended up leaving the national guard.

?

Not sure what you're trying to say here. The state of Alaska had a pretty good thing set up for their students and I don't begrudge it to any of them, let alone SP. Not many students from Wasilla went to college at all.

Not sure why you responded to my post the way that you did...
