Actually, arrogance is just a cover for the narcissism, the TOTAL self-centeredness.
A narcissist has a very high opinion of himself, to be sure,
but a narcissist is also VERY susceptible to any slight criticism.
If he had better grades than Bush, he would be waving his transcript in front of our face every day. He’s an academic fraud, pushed forward because of his race. Then he was pushed further forward by the international banking community to bail them out and further reduce our borders.
He’s an ignorant tool, nothing more.
If Obama is so smart, why did his former co-workers say he was, lazy, arrogant, and easily the lowest IQ in the building? Smart people are generally complimented by their peers.
Who said this and when? Interesting.
He is proving to be an embarrasment to the PTB so they will salvage their investment by having him sign an E.O. to get their amnesty plan approved, stripping all pretense of following the constitution and daring the people to start a shooting war.
Rememeber, Obammy made it a point to tell the West Pointers that he was their commander-in-chief in what could be described as an intimidating tone of voice . . . perhaps forseeing the day that he will declare martial law.
I read a report somewhere that at those University of Chicago law courses Obama taught, he spent a lot of the class time talking about basketball games. I don’t know if that has been verified. There must be scores if not hundreds of people who remember taking his classes, but maybe they are either Obama cultists or think it wouldn’t be prudent to speak out.
“I expect hes above average for the overall population”
I think he’s far below average.
He’s 49 years old. I bet he couldn’t name the guys who walked on the moon first, who is Lucas McCain, or describe even a BASIC third grade explanation of WWII. And don’t even begin asking him science qustions. He is likely to be one of the stupidest men to ever hold the office. Jimmy Carter was FAR more intelligent educationally.
All he knows is his communist training as a child. From his no-good mom and grandpa.
bttt
The “lazy and not smart” comment came from the U of Chi interview about how OBAMA was forced upon the staff, who interviewed but didn’t want him
all so he could bolster his resume
as “Constitutional Law Prof”
We all remember that, right ???
57 States,,,, (could YOU utter that statement?)
I can imagine not knowing the answer, but thinking the answer could possibly be the moon since:
A. it is not a planet
B. it circles the earth, not the sun
This former science teacher is saddened by that video....
The second brick in the top row of my fireplace wishes to disagree with you. :=)
I believe he uttered that statement in perfect Austrian. He then went on to talk about the Marine Corpse and the Peace Corpse.
But can he beat Wolf Blitzer at Jeopardy?
Here is one attempt of an IQ fix.

I haven't seen even a glimmer of that. He misuses words, e.g., enormity. He mispronounces words, e.g., corps pronounced corpse. He uses poor grammar, e.g., "President Bush invited Michelle and I to the White House."
Big deal, he got into Harvard and was editor or president of the Law Review. Unfortunately he just reinforces the stereotype of someone who has been promoted above his abilities.
I agree. His biggest asset, as I said, is that he is a performance artist. Someone else, with a less smooth delivery, would not have done nearly as well, even with all of the AA benefits. Take, for example, Deval Patrick.
Aren't they being ironic?
I th9ought he was a pretty smart guy before, just a misguided a-hole. I am becoming more and more convinced that he is a moron, a complete idiotic moron. Can’t make a speech without a teleprompter; can’t talk without half of his words being, um, ah; and is self-centered beyond a normal thinking persons standards. The guy is dumber than dog crap.
