The Center for Public Intellectuals

That name sets of all kinds of alarm bells for me.

Anyone who likes to call themselves an "intellectual" is usually an over-educated, arrogant, patronizing, totally-lacking-in-common-sense boor with no sense of humor. Not that I dislike them, or anything.

But it also shows that he, Bill Ayers and Bernardine are basically on the same page together. I doubt if he argued any with them during the conference. In other words, it didn't appear to be a debate, but rather a get-together of like-minded people, "activists" and "theorists" as they described it. Ahhh (bell goes off in my head), but wouldn't it be great to find a TRANSCRIPT for the event? Ya hear me out there??? First one who finds one gets a FREE 24x36 wall photo of Michelle Obama!
