That incident is a teller.  Can she actually be that naive (I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt  :biggrin:  ) as to think after all the crap she and the RW have spewed about Obama and teleprompters that she wouldn't be under intense scrutiny any time she gives a speech/public commentary?

Why do people think she's prez material when she only has a second rate communications degree, while Obama has a poly-sci BA from Columbia and a JD (Magna Cum Laude) from Harvard, as well as being a law professor at University of Chicago Law School and they continually claim he's not qualified. 

Is it because she was Governor of a state whose entire population is less than the city of Indianapolis?

I mean, come on, really.

Indeed.

They keep crying because they want 100% access to his transcripts etc.! Come on people, do you really think the man would receive his degree "Magna Cum Laude" (With Highest Honors) from such a prestigious institution as Harvard, and not know what he is doing?  :rolleyes: (I suppose Harvard is in on it too huh?)

It just boggles the mind how low they will go. . . :rolleyes:

(I hope she uses permanent marker because when the heat gets turned up and her palms start sweating, that ink is going to smear and run and leave her unarmed!)  :biggrin:

Oh, you mean you actually found transcripts of Obama's college years?  That's odd because last I heard he had them under lock and key and the college was told they couldn't release any of his college records.

Aw, c'mon now, Y.

'Em 'ere perfessers 'n' all 'em degree peeple don't got a lick a commin sents.

We needs us a peeple who kin tawk ta the peeple.

'n' 'at's SARAH!!  WOO HOO!

Your comment brings to mind two things.

1) That common fallacy about 'common sense' and how the greatly un/undereducated cling to it so they aren't faced with admitting some people are just vastly more intelligent and motivated than they are.

2) That the greatly un/undereducated don't realize the difference in the dedication and work between Sarah's and Obama's degrees, and that previous actions are a prime indicator for future behavior/success.

But the 'servs (read - reactionaries) have never appeared to me to be overburdened with the over-analytical brain - unfortunately.  This country would be better off if they were.

My transcripts aren't available to anyone off the street (and I would bet your grade school ones aren't either  :razz:   :biggrin: ), why should his be?

If an employer wants my transcripts, I (yes me, not them) have to order them with delivery to the employer.  Of course, one has to have college transcripts to know that, so it is easy to tell the trailer crowd obama lied about his birth certificate, college transcripts, et al.

Gee that's odd.  Seems Bush's and every other person's was made available, or at least you act like you know all about their grades and what courses they took and seem to want to compare them.  Oh, I'm sorry I forgot ya'll are soooo much smarter than the rest of us just because you happen to have a different opinion.  Ever heard the term elitist?  Seems to be an epidemic going on here.

Maybe because the American public is his employer and deserve to know exactly how his ideals were developed other than the obvious associations with rather unsavory people. Who knows, maybe they would even improve his image. And I would not be ashamed to let anyone see any of my school transcripts or my IQ rating either, wonder if/why he is.

I say if you are going to run for POTUS...you got to let EVERYTHING out there....your ACTIONS as an adult should speak volumes about your charactor and your obliterates to serve...the fact you may have failed 8th grade chemistry....will not for most folks have any impact or they shouldn't anyway.....but, Americans should know the whole history...I say lay all your cards out on the table right up front and show your abilities to lead and serve, and it don't mean diddly squat if you have a poly-sci BA from Columbia and a JD (Magna Cum Laude) from Harvard...THAT also does not necessarily mean you are a qualified leader....

After seeing what the media and the opposition did surrounding the shrub's release of his information, who in their right mind would consider revealing any such information to the general public or the media short of a court order? I have nothing to hide nor be ashamed of in either category, but I am not about to release that info to just anyone.

Please do, because if the indicators are correct, it should assure a second term for Obama if he chooses to run.

I think I said that exact same thing myself once upon a time.  ;D
