The real professors don’t have to do a thing. There is no reason to force the issue - the statement is just a bunch of words. The real professors have the power over promotion and tenure. The adjuncts have nothing other than the ability to say “I’m a professor.”
I might have added, Obama was a professor in the same way an illiterate professional athlete is a high school graduate. The illiterate athlete may say a hundred times he’s a high school graduate but it’s a joke.
So Obama claims to have been a professor and a law review editor. It’s a joke.
In some ways you are very conservative but in a few ways you act like a full blown liberal. An example of the latter: if a liberal leftist person, government official or institution issues a statement that is contradicted by evidence but that serves Obama’s best interests and makes him look good, you take it as objective truth. You seemingly cannot conceive of liberals lying, shading, bending or stretching the truth, or rewriting the rules and/or history to serve their and Obama’s combined interests. In that sense, you are a very weird conservative.
“Taking Professor Obama’s Class”

I started reading post 315, and before I finished reading the first line I knew it was yours. I glanced down and indeed saw your name, so I skipped the rest. You are too predictable. You never write anything new, fresh or interesting. Your posts are stale, boring and shriveled as a prune. So you and your fellow Obama defenders are defending Obama...again. So what? It’s the same old routine, so very, very old.
You post not like an engaged, knowledgeable conservative but like a liberal who is doing a very poor job of trying to pass as a conservative. Your prior posts revealed that your alleged support of Palin is a sham. You have no idea what she stands for, or the implications thereof. As a fake conservative, you’re about as convincing as Obama is as a native Hawaiian...when he identifies HI as being located in Asia.
I’ll skip your link too. Your circling the wagons with other Obama defenders is a nonevent. What else would you no-lifers do? Yawn; you need a new act. The old one fell flat a long time ago.
Obama’s lawyer did NOT admit that the image of Obama’s birth certificate was a forgery

The real question is, why would *anyone* believe *anything* any ‘Hawaiian official’ says about Obama & his BC, when this incident proves beyond the shadow of a doubt that they will lie like rugs to protect him? It’s what those of us with a clue have been saying all along, but this ‘we discarded all paper BCs,’ and ‘they no longer exist’ deceit is proof positive. ‘HI officials’ are deep in the tank for Obama, and they LIE.
Deal with it, anti-birthers.
I note the date of your article is 2008-09-10. That was about a week before it dawned on me that Crash McCain was a loser not a winner (actually, I knew it all along, but got my hopes up when he won the nomination and selected Sarah Palin as his VP), when he grand-standingly "suspended" his campaign to deal with the financial crisis. Palin was a good move, but not sufficient to fix stupid!
In your article, Richard Epstein is quoted, saying "When Obama grants audiences to adversaries, he's got this wonderful manner, cocks his head forward, always asks good questions. You always feel you've been heard out." But in the end, "he doesn't change his mind. He's surprisingly rigid, intellectually."
Obama was a faker, and the U of C fell for him. He was just a community organizer with an agenda affirmatively promoted wildly beyond his pay grade using the U of C as a platform to spread his BS.
As for adjunct professors, I actually knew a real one. He was a guy who, in between startups, taught full-time several years at a graduate school on the level of U of C Law. It was a very demanding job. I mean, here he was in a lecture hall full of students who had paid middle five-digit sums to be there. He needed to plan his intricate course content. He maintained office hours, where students could come to consult. But he was a talented, charismatic guy. In the end, he earned top ratings from the student rating survey, ranking in the top half-dozen, most of whom were tenure-track academics.
Of course, the professor gig was also rewarding. The salary was low six digits. But then there was the consulting ... E.g., there was the time a certain third-world enterprise paid him a middle five-digit sum plus first class expenses to fly half-way around the world and teach a one-day seminar on a hot topic for which he had established a reputation. When he got there, they even threw in his choice of local woman, but, being happily married, he declined (as far as I know).
My point is, not all adjunct professors are created equal. And Obama was the bottom of the barrel. He is a blot on the U of C Law School.
Well said. There’s nothing in your post for me to disagree with. I hate it when that happens! :-)
One additional piece of information, Obama was recommended to the University of Chicago Law School by U.S. Appeals Court Chief Judge Abner Mikva who had offered Obama a clerkship that Obama turned down. Elena Kagan took the clerkship that Obama had declined. Mikva went on to later be Clinton’s White House Counsel.
Mikva had been an adjunct professor and then director of a legal aid clinic at the University of Chicago Law School.
Obama awarded Mikva the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest honor given to civilians.
Methinks thou dost protest too much...
