I knew all of this stuff before BO got elected. Tried to warn folks in CA. They didn’t want to know anything, just wanted to vote for the Black man - first Black president, Hope & Change. They stuck their heads in the sand.
“Don’t tell me, I don’t want to know,” they would tell me.
Now we have this mess.
Where was this kind of insight and honest criticism two years ago when it would have been of value?
Not a shadow of a doubt in my mind.
The makings of the perfect sock puppet.
“he had the lowest intellectual capacity in the building”
Some things never change. It’s still true today.
I tell everyone that Sarah Palin has published exactly as many law review articles as the Kenyan.
“The Peter Principle is the principle that “In a Hierarchy Every Employee Tends to Rise to His Level of Incompetence.”
As student of the Peter Principle, I think it’s necessary that the rest of this quote be mentioned: Once reaching that level, the employee “stays there”.
Pray that an exception is made in this case. Of course, “The One” probably feels that he has one more level to attain...
The same question has been in my mind. However, when you read that the beginning of all this quandry has its roots in the overthrow of Sukarno in Indonesia in the ‘50s with the help of CIA with adjunct standby by the Ford Foundation and subsequent involvement of Peter Geitner along with BHO’s mother and then throw in the likes of Kissinger and Bryzhinsky( who was a mentor and now an advisor to BHO) and Soros with the Rockefellers (Trilateral Commission and BHO’s grandparents) and then ‘dot’ all the people who were known in USA foreign affairs— you can see this guy, BHO, was more than a fly-by-night character. If you want to add to the mix read about the CIA’s involvement in the Russian-Afganistan war and possible use of agents. I believe our Nation was being geared for someone like BHO: but you have to admit he is a very good water boy.
Nominees for the deed:
1. Pappa Ayers, who was head of Chicago Edison, and possibly on the Board of Trustees.
2. And/or the Sidley & Austin law firm, one of Chicago's largest, who also employed Bernadine Dohrn -- who then hired Michelle Obama (then Robinson) -- and had Chicago Edison as a major client.
Everything in Obama's experience leads back to radical socialism (or Muslim intervention).
Written by a lawyer and former editor of the Texas Law Review (1978-1980). He finds it very odd that 0bama never published any legal note yet was selected to be President of the Harvard Law Review. A little long but an interesting read.
Actually not. The Peter Principle is that an employee ceases to rise once the level of incompetance is reached- the first job he failed at. That would have been "community organiser"
I too find it more than believable but would love something a little more concrete.
There were some threads in the past few days about The White House giving special access if they either (depending on the thread) wrote favorable stories or didn’t write on anything bad that came out about him. This would seem to be the sort of story they’d hate to have come out because its something you would think the media,having missed it,would ignore it so by covering it would possibly go after other stories. Maybe even have reporters reporting and we couldn’t have that.
Still,can’t escape asking why is this out now and not 2 years ago?
This guy was so unqualified from the start.
It reminds me a little bit of my experience with him when he was president of the Harvard Law Review. You know, I hesitated to say a lot about this during the campaign because I really thought maybe it wasn't fair. That maybe, finally, when he got to be President, this would be a job big enough to engage and hold Barack Obama's sustained interest, because really, is there a bigger job out here?
[...]
[W]hen he was at the HLR you did get a very distinct sense that he was the kind of guy who much more interested in being the president of the Review, than he was in doing anything as president of the Review.
A lot of the time he quote/unquote "worked from home", which was sort of a shorthand - and people would say it sort of wryly - shorthand for not really doing much. He just wasn't around. Most of the day to day work was carried out by the managing editor of the Review, my predecessor, a great guy called Tom Pirelli whose actually going to be one of the assistant attorney generals now.
He's the one who did most of the day to day work. Barack Obama was nowhere to be seen. Occasionally he would drop in he would talk to people, and then he'd leave again as though his very arrival had been a benediction in and of itself, but not very much got done.
So, you know, you see that and you think, gosh, maybe that's the way the guy operates, hut then you figure ok, obviously he always had his eye on bigger and better things.
But now he's President...there really isn't a bigger or better thing."
Thanks for adding that to this thread. I agree with everyone else who's said these people should have let this out BEFORE this creep got elected.
Did you know that Toms Ayers was considered the guru of IL politics and was friends with George Soros? Also I didn’t know until recently that Soros money helped fund ACORN and SEIU established by Rathke who was a former member of the Weather Underground.
Would say Goerge Soros gave them an offer of money they couldn’t refuse to do the job.
I do have a question though — why did Bush #41 make all passport records sealed if running for President like he did Clinton’s? I personally think if you are running for office every record should be an open book.
1. If they talked to the MSM we would never have heard a word of it.
2. And who's asking them now? It ain't the MSM?
There was so much kept hidden and if anything was brought out you were called racist.
