Americans are Barack’s prospective employer. We didn’t see the requested documents at the time of hire.

He has had bad performance reviews and his contract may not be renewed.

As his employer, I want to know what he is covering up.

Yes he did. Particularly after he raved about nobama being open and transparent. What a dancing maroon.

I do too, but I wanted to ask the question to people who might know. Why is it hard to cover up? Why can’t his people just go in and change things or the school to “lose” his file?

I think he is hiding something. The American public deserves to know what it is. I just wanted to know how hard it was to cover up the documents.

Would you want your college records released if the were full of C’s, D’s , and Incompletes?

"Is there more protection involved and it would be too hard to change?"

Even forgers using state-of-the-art technology are at a disadvantage simply because their product becomes locked in time once it's produced. They have no way of knowing what technology will come along and what kinds of tests may ultimately be brought to bear against their forgery. It's kind of like the cold case arrests you hear about every now and then, where a suspect is finally identified with tissue evidence collected in 1972, by applying DNA tests not available at the time.

Even if the O-team put together credible appearing college transcripts and applications today in 2012, it's virtually inevitable that within a month, a year, or a decade, some means of analysis would come about that would identify the fraud. Of course, the document forger always runs the risk that somebody lurking in the shadows will produce a bona fide original with solid gold provenance...

My understanding is that due to his poor academic record, he had to beg a professor to give him a letter of recommendation to get into Harvard.

Thanks for the reply. The last sentence is what I was kind of leaning towards, but the rest makes sense.

I kind of asked the same question with Fast and Furious. Issa wants more documents. How do we know that Holder isn’t destroying them as we speak? And why doesn’t he? I assume there are things in place to keep that from happening, but it seems quite easy. Probably not though.

Jay Carney is a piece of work. Use any for letter word you want!

The four letter word I choose to describe Carney is: "Chip", as in Chip Diller, the "Omega" pledge played by Kevin Bacon in "Animal House" ("All is well! All is well!!!")

Obama reminds me of a classmate when I was 3rd year high school. One day the class students were assigned at the start of class to write a one page summary of the previously assigned literary work. The teacher fingered through the turned in reviews and noticed one boy who had the desk next to me ,because of name spelling, had not turned in a paper. She asked the boy why he had not turned in a paper. His reply was that he wasn’t good at writing but he could give an oral talk and talk he did. This boy was deep into theater productions and he gave much more talk than could be a summary on one page. As I recall the class got a bang out of his disoriented talk fest.

Reporter - “Will the Obama campaign release his college records, as a demonstration of transparency?”

Carney - “Obama has the most transparent administration and campaign in history. That is Trump’s question. Trump is a birther. Obama is transparent, and absolutely will not release the college records - don’t ask again.” (paraphrased)

How is this sort of behavior tolerated by a government employee?
