Two of the Americans I admire the most and I bet Sarah does too are Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams, REAL PROFESSORS AND STERLING INTELLECTS.

IT AIN’T ABOUT RACE!!!

This kind of insanity from Obama-worshipers just furthers the very real perception of a huge disconnect between the self-anointed 'elites' and normal Americans. It may make the leftists and their idol, Obama, feel good for a minute or two, but is doing serious, long-term damage to the left's credibility - about anything - including Sarah Palin.

Sifting through every criticism of Obama and always finding it 'racist' is also a non-starter for most Americans. Obama's sycophants are only dividing their idol and the loony left that still supports him and the majority of Americans, which, as Obama's falling approval numbers show, is toxic. Definitely idiots...but they can't help themselves, this is who they are.

Palin is right on target. Obama was never a “professor” and of course, could never be - and her derisive use of the term fits to a T. He simply is not very smart. Read any REAL law prof blog (easily findable at Instapundit) and find out what intelligent law types write.

As a retired educator, I’ve know many educated ‘idjits’ within the hallowed halls of the university system.

they were looking at this president as an African American who was out of place,”

He's not an Afro-American. Let's start dispensing with that. Afro-Americans have been here since the beginning of the country and grew, and experienced good and bad along with everyone else.

0bama is something from someplace else, who-knows-where, who suddenly showed up with mysterious piviledges. He doesn't look especially pale, and that's all there is.

Here is why I am mystified..

Years ago, an Arab* friend of mine was shooting pool in a college rec room with a bunch of Black kids. One asked him if he was attending some Black cultural event later that day. He answered, "No..I am an Arab...Why would I?"

One of the kids broke his pool cue in half, said, "I'm not playing with a Honkie."

Why does Obama get a pass?


* He was very dark; His name began with "Ibn-", which I was told meant "Grandson of a slave".

You have to go to college to learn how to be that stupid.

I have officially heard it all now. Professor = uppity; what next? President = the “n” word?

a professor of law standing at the lectern...a not-so-subtle attack on the president's race

Now that is a stretch. I guess saying anything at all is a racist comment.

Claiming Palin calling Obama ‘Professor’ Is Palin Code for ‘Uppity’ is Leftist Code for ‘B*tch’ and is sexist.

Charles Ogletree

"..Charles J. Ogletree (born December 31, 1952 in Merced, California) is Jesse Climenko Professor at Harvard Law School, the founder of the school's Charles Hamilton Houston Institute for Race and Justice, and the author of numerous books on legal topics..."

I see the author is a "distinguished" Race Pimp.

What a stretch!

They can't admit that all she was saying that his experience is having been a college professor.

Which is a stretch in it's self, all he ever really was is a community organizer.

Then the Chicago/Crime/Mob/Machine tapped him for Present of The United States.

Now their guy is there doing their bidding.

Well, along with Marx/Alinsky/Emmanuel/Chavez/Etc bidding.

0bammy was never a professor though he has mis-represented himself as such. Savor the BS ——>>>
.
.

Today, the University of Chicago released the following statement:

The Law School has received many media requests about Barack Obama, especially about his status as “Senior Lecturer.” From 1992 until his election to the U.S. Senate in 2004, Barack Obama served as a professor in the Law School. He was a Lecturer from 1992 to 1996. He was a Senior Lecturer from 1996 to 2004, during which time he taught three courses per year. Senior Lecturers are considered to be members of the Law School faculty and are regarded as professors, although not full-time or tenure-track. The title of Senior Lecturer is distinct from the title of Lecturer, which signifies adjunct status. Like Obama, each of the Law School’s Senior Lecturers have high-demand careers in politics or public service, which prevent full-time teaching. Several times during his 12 years as a professor in the Law School, Obama was invited to join the faculty in a full-time tenure-track position, but he declined.

"she was also making a not-so-subtle attack on the president's race..."

I was wondering how long it would be before they played the infamous race card against her...and there is a good reason why they did....NOTHING ELSE HAS WORKED. lol

Playing the race card is the last, desparate act of a dying man.

What Sarah said was:

"That scares me for my children and for your children. Treating this like a mere law enforcement matter places our country at grave risk. Because that’s not how radical Islamic extremists are looking at this. They know we’re at war. And to win that war, we need a Commander-in-Chief, not a professor of law standing at the lectern."

Which is ABSOLUTELY TRUE and which most of us agree 100%.

But as Rush pointed out, obama was never actually a "professor"...just a "guest lecturer" (mostly on the principles of Alinsky).

So Professor Ogletree is as full of stuffing as a Christmas turkey in his assumptions and accusations.

You know, we "anti-intellectuals" wonder why such an elitist Professor can't come up with a more intellectual argument than the simplistic race card...I mean, that's the one the ghetto gangsta's use, you know, those 7th grade graduates you see on TV every...single...day.

But, I put forth my standard challenge...America has thousands upon thousands of anti-discrimination and hate-crimes laws on the books...so if any of us "anti-intellectuals" are racists, why not take us to court? Let's put the burden of proof on your ass and see how that turns out. I seriously doubt that calling someone - who is a self-proclaimed "professor" - will be found to be a racial epithet.

So, Professor Ogletree, nice try but it won't float...and it doesn't matter...very few of your "friends" would vote for her anyway.
