And what is this 'gap year' nonsense? Does this mean Harvard has extended an admission to her... whenever she decides to start attending? What if the single 'gap year' becomes two? Three? Four?

I think when all the dirt comes out after Obama leaves office, the children will want to run and hide, just like little Amy Carter did.

Malia should take a semester at community college. Or why not Howard University in DC?

“attacking the innocent child of Barack Obama”

I rarely mention his kids, but I believe this was the one wearing a peace sign T-shirt while her father was putting our troops in harm’s way. Classy...

"And what is this 'gap year' nonsense?"

It may not be nonsense, depending upon how you spend it. In Malia's case the verdict is out. Look, for those of us that may have kids in this age group and those that are in admissions in college it is not an unfamiliar topic. Your 17 to 18 yr old is at the younger end of their age for their graduating class? Take a year to mature. Instances I have heard of? A liberal going to Israel for a year and now question the dominant media because what they saw does reflect what the papers say. Quite an awaking before heading off to college. Going on a mission sponsored by your Church for a year. Ice Skaters taking a year to do one of the touring ice shows before heading to the 4 year university. BTW do your research on it, it is a tough slog, those shows.

Again the point is, some kids aren't mature enough, this gives them a chance to sort it out. Wish I would have known about the concept back in the day...

Note colleges do not look unfavorably on it as well, as long as you are not slumming for year, do something that helps you figure it out.....

How do we know this? BHO told us. Why? For security reasons, shouldn’t he keep his mouth shut to protect his family members?

It’s unclear whether this reflexive misdirection is the result of them being too stupid to understand an argument...

I'll take "liberals too stupid to understand an argument" for $200, Alex...

She would be waiting to see if she could get admitted to Beauty school or Hair Weaving 101 if she was not to spawn of the ONE.
