HA!!! I wonder how those on the far right will spin this...
By this measure he's a bigger dummy than Bush.
What makes you think they care? Seriously, I bet having a 2.2 GPA will make him more likable among the conservative base. They'll say he's a "real person" - like Sarah Palin.
But then why won't he release his transcript so everybody could see how well he did. Are most people college grads and automatically know about this. You said it but if he is so proud why doesn't he just release his transcripts. Surely he could get it done, since he has supposedly jarred his BC out of Hawaii.
Anyone and everyone with a lick of sense knows that a Magna C*m Laude degree from Harvard Law indicates an almost perfect GPA.
Show me one quote from Obama that indicates that he is "so proud" of his Harvard degree.
Thanks a bundle for this post. I decided to look further into the whole thing so I watched your video. YouTube had done away with the embedding so I had to click on YouTube which I always do anyway and it worked so well for me this time. On that page of the YouTube program I saw that there was an interview with S. E. Cupp. Now Cupp is a radio talk show host and a really good one I might add. If I could find a place near enough to hear her I would never miss her show.
Anyway the best part of that interview was when Cashill agreed with Cupp, what a lovely young thing, that Obama was a liar, literary fraud far more radical than he ever admitted.
OK, I found more people who say primarily the same things about the fact that Obama turned some of his "Dreams of my Father" over to Bill Ayers so he could rewrite them to make them sound better. They all say that the flow of the book from Obama's C- style of writing to the A or better style of Ayers is easy to detect.
Do you know how much time I have spent getting ready to spend much more getting into this? It is over 1 1/2 hours and will get much bigger before this night is over. Thanks for getting me started. I am wanting to find these things but not good enough at research to get them. Well now you have put me into it again.
Here is the link to the Cupp-Cashill interview I talked about.
I will probably be back with lots more before this one is over. I read the paper that Obama wrote at Columbia, "Breaking the War Mentality" because I have always wanted to see it. It is a copied copy of the thing and tells me a lot more about Obama than most other things. Now I am off and running to see so much more about him.
Let me put it this way. If Obama didn't have the grades he wouldn't have been in Harvard Law in the first place. Once more if he didn't have the grades at Harvard Law he would have had to do, and win, one of the most competative write ons in known to man, which by itself would be a monumental achievement.
It would be almost impossible, if not impossible for him to have gotten on to something that is one of the most direct paths to a Supreme Court clerkship with grades at Perry's level.
Can you show me some proof of how Obama got into Harvard, in the first place? Show away as I am ready. I know what I believe but maybe you can prove it wrong.
Keep in mind (this requires you to ), Perry's transcripts were leaked. He did not "release" them.
Leaked by who to whom? Surely Kos wasn't the leakee. That makes it all just a bit shady sounding to me. Who leaked those grades and who did they leak them to? Surely you know so let me know.
Having the ability to memorize facts for an A is not the test of anyone ability to apply their knowledge to real life situations. What is needed is a combination of knowledge and a huge amount of common sense. That which cannot be gained by studying. It takes life experiences. We also need someone, anyone, in Washington to have the ability to work and get along with others. I believe everyone in Washington got a U in plays well with others in school. All the he said, she said is killing all of us.
So you are saying that Perry is not stupid, just really lazy. I feel so much better now.
