That decision?

OK, sure.
I'm sure you can give me a source for your quote....

Not some left wing source either...or show me multiple...

No, I mean...If I say she is a very smart person, you would come back and say she is stupid, and maybe argue...look where she graduated from....

Me, "Chuckie" as you call me would say...she has attained a 4 year degree....oh but wait...did Obama do any better...nope...

You would then say....well obama graduated from harvard....a useless argument...in my opinion....it's a 4 year degree...

If I said Palin has more time a a public figure than obama you would say something like....Palin was just some city counsel person for a little town in Alaska, and did nothing for the town...and obama has more time in a big city...something like that anyway...

We can go tit for tat on this all day long, I won't play stupid little games like you, or twist words to suit myself....

So come back with your little comments on how wrong I am....

I know you will....

As for the decision part....look up what she did....and how she grew that little town....If I give you a link...you will complain it is a right wing blog or blah blah blah.....so figure it out for yourself....

I'm not sure that you understand how higher education works. You have to have a Bachelor's degree before you can be admitted to law school.

Obama has a four year degree from Columbia University as well as a Doctorate of Jurisprudence from Harvard (which is a three year degree, by the way). Quite a lot of difference between his education and that of the former governor.

To add one (2) things, he graduating with honors from hls, and he was president of the Harvard law review as a 3l. Anybody chosen to lead a law school's law review has been given one of the most prestigious honors possible at that law school. He was also a research assistant for Lawrence tribe while there. That may sound facile, but only the brightest get to be RAs for rocketed law profs like tribe.

I don't think I need to prove to you that Obama graduated from Harvard.

Are you suggesting Obama didn't get a law degree from Harvard, or that a law degree from Harvard doesn't take three years?

If you are suggesting he didn't graduate from Harvard, there's a nytimes article from 1990 when obama was the first ever president of the Harvard law review. I can link to it if you think I'm incorrect or don't want to google that yourself. There's also anarticle from Tribe in 1991 that thanked obama for his work as a research assistant while he was a student.

It's just a set up. they did the same thing last time making it look like obama was running against Bush. Palin dont stand a chance at even getting nominated yet the Palin threads will never stop anyway .best to just ignore them.
