His letter to the Harvard paper included a typo. This what you want From the editor?

The recent reprint of Obama's letter in the Harvard Law Record does not make it clear if the typo was the fault of Obama's original letter to the paper or if the Record just printed the word wrong in 1990. It may be the the 1990 editor of the Harvard Law Record was at fault. In any case, getting one character wrong in a long letter which has overall perfectly fine grammatical and spelling construction is a meaningless nitpick IMHO.

Shoe me college grades.

No comment.

$20,000,000 donation got Obama into HLS.

Made up and also does not make sense.

I’ve never seen Obama asked real questions in an interview or had to think on his feet.

You don't pay attention. Last year Obama appeared alone in front of the Republican leadership and answered questions in depth for a long time. This was on C-SPAN and is undoubtedly still in their online video library. No one came out of that meeting and said that Obama is not intelligent. In fact, there is not even one example of a person who has been in a meeting with Obama who has come away complaining that he is a Chauncy Gardener type idiot. People who have actually met him and seen him perform in meetings as president do not seem to be saying this.

The fact he won’t disclose information means he has a good reason to not disclose information.

Maybe. But we don't really know how good the reason is. No doubt Obama does want to portray himself as a greater genius than he really is. But that's not illegal. How many other presidents (or candidates) have disclosed their transcripts before or during their time in office? I think Bush and Gore are it.

Maybe Obama does have something sinister to hide. Or maybe he learned a lesson from the Bork hearings, that one has nothing to gain by leaving a paper trail.
