Sarah Palin's college years left no lasting impression
LA Times ^ | October 21, 2008 | Robin Abcarian

In the five years of her collegiate career, spanning four universities in three states, Palin left behind few traces. Not many professors or students even remember her. (read the rest at the link)

I sent the following email to the author and to the reader rep at the LA Times:

"Very "in-depth" article about Sarah Palins college years ... I'm looking forward to reading the article entitled OBAMA: THE COLLEGE YEARS in next week's edition. It should be a good one since you have had two years to research (based on the comprehensive article you wrote with only a few short weeks of research)!

Will it be in this Sunday's edition?" If you want to comment on this atrocious article as well, the email addresses are robin.abcarian@latimes.com and readers.rep@latimes.com.

“Sarah Palin’s college years left no lasting impression”

Unlike Joe Biden’s law school years where he was caught plagiarizing - which did leave an impression.

Love this: “Sen. Joe Biden, who had a brush with plagiarism at Syracuse University College of Law, is remembered fondly by professors who found him charming.”

A BRUSH with plagiarism??? At the Law College? A “brush”?

Can you imagine if that had been McCain or Palin?

He might have titled it “The Biden Law School YEars left a lasting impression — of a CHEAT”. Joe was at the bottom of his class and had to take a course over again when he was caught cheating by his professor. Won’t see this in the so-called “press”, will we?

Propaganda. Nobody is remembered at big universities. Not even Obama. The LA Times is a sh*t rag.

I went through five years of undergraduate school and three another five years of graduate school at four universities. I am sure that, with the exception of one professor, I left no lasting impression either.

Most of the teaching I received was by graduate students, who are now for the most part back in India, China, Morocco, or Iran, where they belong. Or at least I hope they are.

"I’ve never read one story about 0bama’s time at Columbia."

Curious, is it not? I've seen speculation that it is there that The 0ne hooked up with Ayers and his ilk. Oh, to have an honest press....

Yes, I too am looking forward to the LA Times detailing Obama’s years at Columbia and explaining why he is the only president of the Harvard Law Review not to produce a single scrap of writing. (won’t hold my breath)

Didn't Wayne Root tried to bet Obama a Million Dollars he had a better GPA at Columbia ?

That both were Political Science Majors and same years. Yet he knows nobody who really knew him.

Wayne was told by Columbia don't bother to apply to Harvard Law School.

He wonders how Obama got into Harvard.

Why is it that we know more about Sara Palin and even Joe the Plumber that we do about Hussein Obama?

Funny, I don't remember seeing anything in print about Barry's college days. Yet this article quotes his classmates as saying he's a genius and a tour de force? Kindly provide proof.

I’m ashamed to have attended the same institution that Biden did...ugh, I hope to hell they don’t win, because if he comes back to Delaware, I’ll give up my Blue Hen season tickets. The spectical he caused 2 weeks ago against Maine was rediculious, and I don’t feel the need to go through security to get into a “home” football game.

Thanks JOE!

A classmate calling Obama, or any tangible thing, a “tour de force” demonstrates only that the classmate learned English poorly and French not at all at whichever university he attended.

In the five years of her collegiate career, spanning four universities in three states, Palin left behind few traces. Not many professors or students even remember her.

Yet she became a very popular Governor of the largest state in the Union (with vast resources). What a bum that Palin chick is.

Is this all they got?? Really?? What a bunch of douchebags.

Sarah didn’t emerge from college as a flaming femino-liberal-socialist-lesbo. I’d call that a towering achievement, especially when you consider what college did to Obama’s head. The poor guy can’t think his way out of a paper bag.
