Sure, you’re laughing, but are you laughing in shorthand?

I have to. With gas prices I can't afford to buy a vowel...

I have a brother-in-law who graduated from Harvard, cum laude. He laughs whenever he hears people say Obama was a Magna cum laude. He told me 90% of Harvard graduates graduate with some kind of academic degree honors on their diploma’s.

I have several old folks in my family (in-laws) that went to Harvard (they earned it the old fashioned way...they worked hard). They are dead now, but they would laugh.

Obama is a slacker, but someone bought a legacy for him...so he skated through.

Nowadays, everything is for sale.

Carney just made one of the worst excuses possible. I have been an Ivy League professor for 35 years and learned early-on that clarity of speech is just a tad important in this business.

Obama better thank his lucky stars that Professor Rating sites were not around when he honing his “shorthand”.

Obama’s shorthand is called “Doublespeak” in George Orwell’s “1984”. We, the average people, call it “ignorance, threats, and lying” by the Comrade-in-Chief.

There, Jay. Take that and shove it up your smarmy ass.

Carny: "Next question".

Reporter: "Why does President Obama say he stands for the southern part of the XL pipeline while knowing it won't bring Canadian oil to our refineries?"

Carny: "Ixna onaa athay opipeline-a. Or read his shorthand."

Law professor my @$$! Clearly we now see that he really was a product of AA and has no idea of what he speaks.

Whether this explanation is true or not Obama would still be wrong either way.

Washington has long been arrogant but has never yet reached this level of arrogant lawlessness.

With Comanches approaching from the West, Arapahos from the East, Sioux from the West, and Apaches from the South, Lone Ranger turns to Tonto and states...

“Looks like we are in for a rough time Tonto”
Tonto “WTF do you mean WE, White Man’?

The only shorthand here is ‘they’ are once again just telling us we are too stupid to breath the same air as that Assinine Dolt.

If OB is all that intelligent, why does he get his knickers in a bind when someone uses the (perfectly good) word ‘niggardly’?.
