A Plague of ‘A’ Students (Why it’s so irksome being governed by the Obami.)
The Virginian ^ | 4/26/2010 | Moneyrunner/O'Rourke

Posted on 04/26/2010 7:19:28 PM PDT by moneyrunner

The secret to the Obama annoyance is snotty lecturing. His tone of voice sends us back to the worst place in college. We sit once more packed into the vast, dreary confines of a freshman survey course—“Rocks for Jocks,” “Nuts and Sluts,” “Darkness at Noon.” At the lectern is a twerp of a grad student—the prototypical A student—insecure, overbearing, full of himself and contempt for his students. All we want is an easy three credits to fulfill a curriculum requirement in science, social science, or fine arts. We’ve got a mimeographed copy of last year’s final with multiple choice answers already written on our wrists. The grad student could skip his classes, the way we intend to, but there the s.o.b. is, taking attendance. (How else to explain this year’s census?)

He wasn’t even an “A” student. He probably was a better sleep potion than Ambien though...

That’s odd. I was always smarter than the ‘Obama’ grad student. But I admit he is one arrogant, obnoxious MF!

Obama ain’t smart or intelligent, he’s crafty.

There is a difference.

One is earned, the other can be either a character flaw or be used for good in certain circumstances.

Obama uses his for evil.

OK. I gotta show my ignorance here. I’m a 51 yr old community college freshman. I only learned last week that “rocks for jocks” is physical science. You gotta tell me what the other two courses are.

America has made the mistake of letting the A student run things. .. uh, A student? Obama? But then the author points out that today the wonderful progressiveness of the American educational system rates everyone an A student.

Our Kenyon Kakistocrat and his kindred klan of 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus revolutionary, radical rabble and their ideological issue are now arguably the Establishment.

They will finally "Bring it all down, man" even if they don't really intend to anymore.

“rocks for jocks” is freshman geology. Nuts and sluts would be abnormal psych. I think darkness at noon is either film appreciation or a basic astronomy course.

The Kenyan is nothing but an anti-American affirmative action boy-king who has been propped up in his booster chair of media enablers.

And he is bent on doing as much permanent damage to us as possible, for as long as he can get away with it.
