“…Let’s say, for the sake of argument, that I’m currently working on yet another sequel to The Manchurian Candidate and I’ve come up with this crazy notion that, seven years after 9/11, the American people elected a man they had not even heard of a few years before, a man whose campaign was handled by a red-diaper baby, a man who was part Arab-African, the son of a Muslim, the circumstances of whose nativity are still unclear, whose college applications and transcripts have never been seen, who appears to have no friends from his days at Punahou, Occidental, Columbia, and Harvard. Heck, Hussein even went to Georgetown and made them cover up Jesus. And yet the enchanted Washington press corps finds Michelle’s bare arms and the Obamas’ new puppy — oddly enough, named BO — of far more journalistic interest. Talk about the dogs that don’t bark in the nighttime, the daytime, or any time!

Or, to put it another way, if BHO II actually were the nutbag Right’s worst nightmare, a crypto-Muslim Marxist bent on the destruction of the Principal Enemy, as our friends the Soviets used to call us, how would he act any different?…

Something makes me think the author hangs out at S&L a lot.

No wonder Obama is such a proponent of the public school system (for others of course) since he–like many public school teachers–doesn’t really know anything but still teaches. I really enjoy the daily lectures and history lessons from this man. It’s like he just read what he’s telling us and acting like he’s known it all along. I wish I were that smart.

Rewriting history, lies and deception. Cornerstone behavior of the MSM and libs …

“And the beat goes on …”

:-)

I immediately imagined the antennae of cockroaches when I saw this.

No doubt about it, Oblabla is an empty suit. Does that which “looks good” in order to advance himself and that’s it.

All show, no go. All glitz, no substance.

“Obama, the curb feelers of America”.

Obama certainly edited articles. EVERY STUDENT at Harvard Law edits articles written by “eminent scholars.” It’s called subciting, and while it’s not technically required for graduation, everyone does it. You are expected to join at least one journal and subcite. Harvard Law publishes many journals which need about a hundred editors each, so subciting is heavily encouraged. They tell you it looks good on applications to say you “worked on a journal.”

So this article is right about Obama having done some editing as a simple statistical matter. However, it is wrong about what that implies. Subciting is menial labor, not a sign of respect from the article authors.

As a subciter, you edit for grammar, spelling, and proper citation form, and you also check the substance of each citation by the author as a guard against plagiarism. This is hardly prestigious work. It is slave labor that can be performed – and is performed – by literally every 1L who has been at Harvard at least one month.

Case in point: I am a Harvard Law 1L who knows no more about law than any other 1L, but I have personally edited portions of about ten articles in the last school year. Didn’t require thinking, just checking my bluebook. It’s not a big deal, and really nothing to be proud of.

Where’s my blackberry?…I’m gonna send off a very curt e-mail. Maybe even more than just curt.

“……Mr. Obama, then a state senator, took students with him to Springfield, Ill., the capital, to watch hearings and see him hash out legislation.”

I’m sure his students learned a lot by watching Lil’ Barry stand there with his thumb up his rear end and saying “Present”.
