I'd vote for Sarah Palin for President or VP

What a bunch of crap! McCain and Palin both fired back. McCain picked an idiot for a running mate who would have been President if his old butt died.People were not that crazy. She blew any chances he had of winning.

And yes, look where we are now. Out of a depression and healthcare for the poor. Yay! Great work!

 
      Why so confrontational and insulting?......Didn't Eric say something about that?...Or does that only fly when you want to apply it towards someone else?.....    

Saying it is a bunch of crap is an opinion of which I'm allowed to give. Just because you don't like them doesn't make it insulting.

You did happen to notice the LOL's after didn't you...guess not. Little fun on your attempting to do the same thing on another post....

Some of the smartest people I know are stupid. Likewise, some of the least formally educated people I know are the brightest, smartest people I know. Case in point: one of my sisters has a genius IQ, but she is an idiot... has no common sense. You get what I'm saying here, right? No? Just because someone has an expensive piece of paper from an elitist institution does not make them particularly clever or smart. By the same token, just because someone does not have a fancy college education does not make them stupid. The notion is offensive and elitist.

I think Obama is a dipshit. I also think Sarah Palin is. My opinion of the two have nothing to do with each other, their political affiliations, nor with their college educations. It's about their decisions and performances in the real world.

I don't see where it was inferred if you don't have a "fancy college education" you are stupid? Sounds like that is a sensitive area for you. Do you have a college education?

You inferred it yourself with your statement above. If you cannot follow the argument, then maybe you need to enroll yourself in a reading comprehension course.

I do have a college education. Why does it matter to you? I have a bachelor's degree in interdisciplinary studies and two minors: one in mathematics and one in geology. I am sensitive about this issue because during my life I have known a lot of incredibly intelligent people who were discriminated against by elitist assholes who thought they were smarter and better than others because they had an expensive piece of paper to hang on the wall.

No I didn't infer that at all. There is no need to get snarky because you had some friends who were discriminated against. Why go off on a tangent that is not even part of the argument? If you believe they give out JD's of Law at Harvard to dummies then we have nothing further to discuss. I know what I'm dealing w/ now.

I'm not having trouble at all. You comparing your genius-idiot sister to everybody is what is offensive. You're trying to diminish people who have a degree from Harvard as not being smart and elitist when in fact it is very difficult to get into Harvard as they only take the best. So yes,if you graduated from Harvard you have a fair amount of intelligence whether you think it's offensive and elitist or not. Non- intelligent people do not graduate from Harvard. It's really that simple.

Mitt Romney also graduated from Harvard with an MBA from Harvard Business School in 1975 and graduated cum laude from Harvard Law School with his Juris Doctor the same year.

Pretty smart dude according to your standards, most people would not be able to accomplish dual enrollment successfully. I never would have DREAMED that you would compliment old Mitt.

George W. Bush graduated from Yale and Harvard. I guess he is really smart.



The Harvard Law Review is a law review published by an independent student group at Harvard Law School. Obama was president of volume 104.

When the records came out....President Bush had better grades that Gore and Kerry....and yet was it portrayed that way?....

Last time...reminder of when you attempted to say I was insulting in another post [towards TEO] and attempted to tell me that Eric had warned against doing such....

Harvard law review......"as the president of the Law Review, Obama didn't write articles, he edited and reviewed them."

Weren't there some of his writings that have been sealed and/or done away with to keep them from the public?...

I don't know what Bush,Gore or Kerry's grades were but if they got in Harvard they were no dummies. I don't try to minimize people's accomplishments because of their political views. Obama is no dummie and you don't get to be editor of the law review because you're a dummy. And you certainly don't graduate second highest because you're a dummie.

I think that was cleared up.

There was one article attributed to Obama but never signed by him. The article was regarding a fetus being able to sue the mother.

What am I missing here? What is the significance of Obama reviewing and editing articles? Are you inferring he wasn't that smart because of that?

I know a retired admiral who graduated #1 in his class at Annapolis.. He is also an Ohlmstead scholar.. He has a genius IQ, speaks and writes 8 foreign languages, has nuclear physics, nuclear engineering, mechanical engineering, and aeronautical engineering degrees. He was an engineer on various submarines and was contacted many times by the experts that designed and built nuclear reactors when they had questions or problems they couldn't figure out.. He can't boil water, fry an egg, hammer 2 boards together, or wire up a switch, but he has pieces of paper saying how smart he is.. He NEVER had any problems following the procedures used for nuclear reactors, (some of which he wrote and are used Navy wide as official orders or procedures) He is one of the ones that basically wrote the tech manual and procedures without ONE nuclear incident. Obama can't/won't follow the laws he's an expert in.... He refuses to follow the immigration and other laws he's sworn to follow and bypasses the experts he put in place to run the country, and signs his own laws, many of which are repealed by his own party as well as the other parties in congress..

So is it....arrogance...ignorance....out of control ego...or another/combination of many?.... Not only him but many elected and or appointed that are not fulfilling their sworn obligations...

Right, Jake, right. Vote for Sarah Palin. I think it will give you some foreign policy experience.

Kool, I didn't say 1 word about voting for Sarah Palin.... YOU brought it up how smart Obama is... A college degree is just a piece of paper that proves you completed the requirement needed to get it.. There are many people playing sports because they have a degree, but can't write or speak with a 5th grade education..

How did Obama pay for his education? We know he and Michelle both are quoted as saying in speeches, during his presidency, that they had just paid off their student loans. Of course no one can find where the loans or interest on the loans were disclosed, as required by a politician's financial reports. No interest was ever recorded and Harvard must have permission to disclose the information.....Obama refused to authorize the disclosure of information.

It makes you wonder and seems quite suspicious that he and Michelle touted about student loans but yet surround it with secrecy.

You DID infer. And judging by your latest responses, including this one, you are most certainly not following this argument. At all.

Being smart as a whip does not equate to having leadership skills and common sense. Going to Harvard and getting great grades does not qualify one for the presidency. Jimmy Carter was arguably our smartest president, but he isn't known as being an effective president.

Notice that I wrote this post without one "you" in it until now. I have noticed that posts with that word in them are usually accusatory and incite retaliatory responses. Just something to think about.
