Not surprising at all. The right wing was shocked - appalled - outraged! that Obama would not release his college records, while defending Bush's right to keep his past a secret. Is *THAT* why Bush released his records? To keep his past a secret?Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who would ever resort to such dirty tactics? Besides you? Be sure to stay tuned. On a related matter, I noticed the mormons have an LDS mingle dating site. I wonder why they can't use "Christian mimgle" It's probably due to the bizarre collection of beleifs that the LDS hold on to. And you guys said Ombama was not a christian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kelpdiver 2 #31 April 6, 2012 Quote what part of Obama's agenda is centrist? the regulations, wanted tax increases, government insurance, what? 3 years in, you should be measuring him on actual actions, not perceived bogeymans. And most of his actions, ones where he had actual choice in the matter, was to continue Bush policies. This is true for taxes, for Gitmo, for Iraq. ObamaCare is the only notable exception.

Nothing about Obama's college records is in question, unlike Bush's dereliction of duty which was already a Vietnam dodge. I have full faith that the University of Chicago vetted those records before hiring him as a lecturer at their law school for 12 years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could have been because he was black and they needed more minorities as Cllege Professors. Just sayin'. yep, this is just like the birther nonsense. Harvard Law isn't like Alabama or Florida State. They don't have athletes of marginal education to admit and coddle. They certainly aren't going to pick such a person to head the Harvard Law Review. Same is true for U of Chicago. This is a world renowned school - they're not going to cheapen their reputation hiring a lecturer (not Professor, mind you) of low quality. It's fair game, and quite appropriate, to attack the man for his lack of experience. It shows often. But you're only making an ass of yourself when trying to suggest the man isn't intelligent and well educated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you make an ass of yourself when you make claims about his grades that you can't support and comments about whether or not he was pushed along when you have no idea if they are factual. It is also very obvious to most that I was simply speculating. truth is neither you or I know for sure. I was just more honest in my opinion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
