And Joe Biden is an intellectual giant?

During his first year there, he was accused of having plagiarized 5 of 15 pages of a law review article. Biden said it was inadvertent due to his not knowing the proper rules of citation, and he was permitted to retake the course after receiving a grade of F, which was subsequently dropped from his record.[18] He was admitted to the Delaware Bar in 1969.[17]

I’m not here to praise Ceasar but to bury him. Vice President Biden’s bulb is of very low wattage, but as you note above, he did attend law school, completed his degree and presumably passed the bar. I also believe he attended an Ivy League undergraduate school. He’s a slimy politician but his academic bone fides aren’t insignificant. Not so Miss O’Donnell. She only claimed to be enrolled at Princeton (perjuriously in a filed law suit) and Claremont (they disavow any knowledge of her). Rove merely pointed out that she had baggage that would make it very difficult for her to win the general. He was spot on. Mr. Rove is a political consultant. He gets paid for making shrewd political judgments and developing winning strategies for candidates. He’s a pro and he saw the Delaware Republican Party making an enormous unforced error and he expressed that opinion. Folks, don’t shoot the messenger. He forwarded sound advice. The Tea Party will do well in the future to listen to sound advice rather than developing teenage crushes on the next attractive woman who whispers sweet promises in our ears. Wake up and get serious or no one will remember that you existed two years from now. Please don’t voluntarily become irrelevant fringe elements. That’s where you’re headed with the likes of “I am You,” whatever that means.
