I’ve seen this before, and while it is probably *true* that Obama said that, it isn’t convincing, because it is hearsay (not written or recorded, just what another person recalls him saying, and not documented at the time).
Also I totally believe the big about Obama being a cold fish and a rude ***hole, because that’s how he comes off to me. But again, this is just one person’s word. This won’t convince anyone who doesn’t already kind of believe it.
Carol Platt Liebau used to work with Obama at Harvard. She also describes him as a cold fish.

I didn’t believe my repost of this was going to shape the election, but you know how the liberals like to say that if it saves one life, it’s worth it. Well, if me taking a few minutes of my time to dredge this up from 2008 causes someone to listen to the interview and find John Lott credible and it changes their vote or makes them vote, then it was worth it. You don’t have to frequent FR to come across threads that are posted here. Most likely, you are right, but you never know on the interwebs who will see what.
