HA HA HA! Left wingers are more about substance than fluff? Ha ha ha! You have got to be kidding. I thnk you will find all you groupies among the left wingers! I don't know how many videos I saw of people that voted for hussein obama because they thought he was cute yet didn't know a darn thing about his policies.
Oh, I thought you were talking about Palin. My mistake.
Wierd she isn't doing Keith Olbermans show - isn't that what we expect folks to do? - interviews by those that obviously have a different point of view and direct their questions and commentary in such a manner..
Kind of like Obama did, when he went on Fox. Oh yeah......
LOLs. My IQ is 156 and it took me ten years and 3 schools to get an undergrad degree. I know scores of people that did the same.
From your post I wonder if you really worked in higher education.

I am not doubting the IQ of anyone here. I was asked why I thought what I did. As I said there are different reasons for schooling to take a long time. The part that is telling is going from a 4 year school to a two year school and back. IF you are thinking about a grad school or med school (which most of my students were) this would be a black mark on your record and ANYONE that sits on the admission board of a med school will tell you this. Your example of taking a long time also happened to some of our strong students. Financially they couldn't afford to go full time or they got married and had kids midway through. Or like some of the kids I advised, they needed to go home and take care of their siblings every weekend.
Yes, I have been working in higher education since 1992. Most of my experience comes from advising in the biological sciences with majors that focused on neuroscience, genetics, pharmacology, microbiology, and biochemistry.
I found most college advisors to be total dumbasses.
I was not a college advisor, I was a departmental advisor. Department advisors are the ones who help you figure out how to get through your major, find faculty to work with doing research, go over your progress, clear you for graduation, and spend a huge amount of time on the bottom 20% that couldn't pass their classes to save their lives. We were the ones who would work with the students to figure out how many grade points they needed to graduate (if someone was 2.8 grade points below the required C average to graduate, they needed a 4 unit B-). Stuff like that.
Perhaps you thought your advisor was a dumbass because you weren't asking the right person the questions. Here a college advisor does the GE advising and the departmental advisors do the major advising.
Charlie Rose doesn't know how to ask tough questions like Reilly.
The Factor is the greatest cable news show period!
I can't stand O'Reilly except on the nights Beck is on with him.
