1 By the way, just on CNN Wolf Blitzer and friends were pushing the idea that Obama wad in the top 10% of his class on account of the magma cum whatever stuff. Frustrating.

2 It's not racist to point out that someone who is more white than black- and has no connection historically or genetically with American blacks, should never have been allowed to receive AA slots reserved to the historic victims of racism and slavery

3 Is the blog broke.

4 I'd tell actual candidates to stay off the transcript stuff (well, don't undermine those pushing it, but don't bite too hard on it yourself)

If asked directly:
I can understand why some people might be interested. But I don't need to see them. I'm more into interested in debating his failed policies.

Continued dialog on the same subject. (The reporter who won't give up that bone)

Well I have worked with a lot of very smart, intellectual people, geniuses really, and Obama doesn't strike me as being in that league, so I can understand why some might be interested in his academic background after so much political commentary on his exceptional intelligence and performance. Again though, the policies he has implemented and his lack of leadership as President tell me enough about him to know that America doesn't need, nor can really even financially endure another term of Obama Presidency.

Continued dialog on the same subject. (The reporter really won't give up that bone)

Well I think Americans expect a certain level of transparency when it comes to the President. His grades at Harvard while pursuing a Constitutional law degree can be reasonably seen as relevant and pertinent to his suitability for the office of US President. So yes, since it is reasonable and relevant, I think the President in the interest of transparency should release those transcripts.

Continued dialog on the same subject. (You guess the obvious question)

Why yes, actually I *just* happen to have a copy of mine right here with me. Here you go.

Give me some time and I'll convince them.

9 I'm happy as a clam to let Trump continue his bomb throwing campaign..

Should he happen to implode and take the President with him, so much the better..

Yeah, after reading the first post on Rush, I thought maybe there were 2 Rushes and I was listening to a different one than some of the commenters.

Why does God need a starship

Yeah, collateral damage would be good.  I think people find Trump appealing because he is not afraid of Obama.  He is not afraid of the media.  He doesn't care what the ruling class says.  He has never backed down.  Unfortunately, our side is always compromising and trying to be bipartisan.  They are weak and scared.  Trump has been a breath of fresh air in this regard.  I don't want him to be our candidate, but I am glad he's definitely leaving some bruises and dirt on Teh Annointed Won.

19 Uh, Trump isn't going to be the nominee.

Not even close.  No organization, he doesn't seem to be wanting to spend Perot-type money and no constituency.  In Iowa, he'll finish behind Bachmann if he even pulls the trigger on a run.

So I see no problem with anything that he's doing.

20
There's nothing to worry about with a Trump campaign, my friends.

21 One thing Trump has hit on very hard is his motivation behind the BC issue.
Obama has, by action and inaction, lied about his intentions since his arrival on the scene and we need to know everything about this man with his finger on the nuclear trigger.

22 Reminds me of a comedian I saw a few months ago saying how absurd it was that some religions say they are doing God's will killing other people.  Doesn't God have the keys to the lightning bolt cabinet?

Allah seems to be a particularly impotent god.

As the lawyer hater above says, Trump ain't gonna be no GOP nominee.

The time for concern will be when Trump decides to continue his fool's errand as an Independent.

25 I think we can all agree that the graders acted stupidly.

26 Oh,and all the "birther" shit didn't hurt us one little bit.

27 I'm glad the thread seems to have been messed up.  It allowed it to stay a reasonable length for me to read it and catch up.

28 If Trump runs independent does he sink the GOP nominee?

29 24
As the lawyer hater above says,

We call each other "friends of William".

30 Everyone will have a role this political cycle. Rush is correct that citizens who have been talked down to, been called vile names, and generally handled as beneath the administration love it when someone is willing to stand up to and CONFRONT lies, theft and anti-constitutional policy. Push back, it's what's for breakfast.

31 Rush once made a joke about Bangkok.  Said ol' Rushbo, "Did you know that Bangkok has the highest number of prostitutes per capita?  That's why they call it BANGKOK!"

That's not an exact transcript of the joke but I can repeat it with 97.4% confidence of accuracy.

32 29 If Trump runs independent does he sink the GOP nominee? Yes.

33 These professors in their small departments, bitterly clinging to their correct answers and their grades, graded blindly, intentionally ignoring the sublime awesomeness of Me.

34
steevy, if Trump gets on the ballot as an (I), we're boned.

But it's a longshot, so I'm not too worried...yet.

35 I think we're missing the bigger question here...

As I understand it, Trump doesn't have any real money.  Not Perot-money.

If Trump is to be believed, his concern is getting rid of Obama.  Perot's bete noir was GHWBush.

It was and still is an astoundingly damaging thing out there and helps bolster the negative opinions of Obama. I believe his true approval ratings are below 40%

38 The finest tool in the kit is mockery. Mock early and mock often. No such thing as "Too silly, new sketch!"

39 Oh,and all the "birther" shit didn't hurt us one little bit.

No, not now,  But years from now, when Michael Beschloss or some other noted presidential historian puts word to paper (or pixels to a monitor), it will reveal the clear cancer that has eaten away the heart of America.

It won't be the immense deficits and debt that bring down the country, it will be the "birthers".

It's a narrative that can't be left alone. It will be part of the greater meta-narrative that will haunt us all 'till our dying day.

Hahahahahahaha!

Abso-frickin-lutely.

44 If Trump does win he will remodel everything in DC and name them all Trump and he will hire Joe Frazier to be the official greeter at The Trump House.

45

But it's a longshot

 

Better use the Longbow.

46
good point about the money, friend of William (wink wink)

Trump won't be able to raise money. And he certainly won't use any of his own money. His campaign will go as far as it can as long as it's free.

47 trump said on hannity's radio show he will not run as an independent....he wants obama gone and he knows we all need to unite to get him out in '12

48 47 I hope(and think)you are right.He could "Perot" us if he runs as an independent.

49 Or, as Captain Kirk asked, "Why does God need a starship?"

You think I'm going to fly myself?  The slugs need to something to fly me around in.

50 48 Well,he tells the audience(of that show)what they want to hear.Do you trust him?

51

Why does Obama need so much cover on this issue?

Or, as Captain Kirk asked, "Why does God need a starship?"

So, you mean Obama IS God, then?

52
We call each other "friends of William".



Heh.

53

Rush is also screwing with some of the listeners who have a cow every time Trump is mentioned. He mentions him just to set off that crew. I think it's funny but you probably have to be a regular listener to "get it".

And he used cojones instead of gonads.

54 14 Don't listen to Drew ace.He's a nice guy but the guy would bring marshmallows to a gunfight.

I believe this.

I think he actually won't run in any meaningful sense.  I mean, he'll say he's running, but he won't have any organization.

He might make for a fun Ames Straw Poll, though.

August 13, 2011.  I expect to see a lot of morons.

57 And note that it wasn't but a few seconds after Kirk asked why God needed a starship that all hell broke out.  Well Trump went beyond the BC to the college records only this week and see how fast Obama threw a out bone trying to change the subject.  Now we know what he fears.  Now we know where to keep poking him.

Show him as an ordinary B student and he is wounded.  Show him a C student poster child for racial profiling and he is boned.  Show he used a Fulbright scholarship and he is finished, especially after today's birth cert drop.

Who would have thought the son of god would have so many daddy issues?

66 I had this conversation with my brother about 6 months ago. I said Obama wouldn't release his long form birth certificate until and unless the day came when hiding it became a political liability. Guess what. Same is going to be true of his college transcripts. He's not going to release them until/unless they become a real political liability. My guess, by the way, isn't that Obama was a D-student. His grades are probably acceptable, though not stellar. I suspect, instead, that his transcript is larded up with touchy-feely liberal arts stuff that, with the benefit of hindsight, probably doesn't look too good. Remember Obama himself said that when in college he liked to hang around the Marxist professors.

67 It's about time, Ace. DrewM. and Jeff B. can run the Axis of Vagina without you for awhile. Thanks for giving your readers some credit for once and not assuming we want Trump as our candidate because we're enjoying the sight of him taking the piss out of Little Lord Fauntleroy.

72 I was in the Navy, which is probably why I don't get this.  Will someone please explain to me how any of this will get him voted out of office.  The ghetto nation that elected him doesn't care.  The media doesn't care.   Union leaders don't care.  More people get money from the treasury than pay into it.  How do his transcripts beat that math?   We all know what's coming.  At the very last minute Harvard Law will produce straight A transcripts.   

73

incandescent ragespittle

well isn't that special - they outlaw incandescent lightbulbs but keep their incandescent rage spittle!!!

They are not closers.

75 Trump is attempting to deconstruct Obama one issue at a time, Trump claims to address an issue then intimates something weird about Obama that neither the press nor the elites will question on their own. The GOP can throw up their hands and disavow it. But the press rubs their hands in glee that they can press for more with the intention of humiliating Trump with the public. It backfires because he is largely unvetted.

76 Boston is awful on the power play, but to give up a friggin' goal on the power play?!

They're -1/21 on the power play!

77 I'm not apologizing to Rush.

Stupid Canadians singing about Tom Sawyer.  Talk about cultural theft of ideas.

78 His background was already vetted in the 2008 campaign. Revisiting these old issues will not accomplish anything. Now is RECORD is established, and he is sinking in the polls. Keep the eye on the prize and sink him on issues using common sense. Palin/Trump and their ilk have no chance for victory. It's either Romney or a yet to be announced candidate. Regardless of your feelings for Romney, he will run, act and lead like a conservative.

79

I am not so sure it would help all that much to go after Obama with stuff like the birth certificate issue. The media went after Bush when he was running for reelection and even though the Democrats pulled all kinds of stuff, he was still reelected. Maybe it was because people already knew him, and telling the American people that Bush was a dummie and a draft dodger and that he was somehow responsible for 911, did not get Kerry elected. It was fun for the left, but it did not win them the election.

It is one thing to take off the gloves when it comes to policy, but to make personal attacks that blow up in your face...well, I doubt if that helps anyone but Obama. What if they get his grades and they are pretty good? And what if they aren't? Do people care one way or the other?

I think most people are more concerned with the price of gas and high unemployment than they are this stuff.

80
their lyrics, they make no sense

81

One thing about Trump, he does know how to create jobs and employ people.  He has had huge business successes and failures.  Obama has never employed anyone in his life.  Shoot, Obama's never had a real job where he had to make a payroll, live and die on a budget, or create/produce anything. 

Obama doesn't have a clue about "the art of the deal" because he never sponsored any meaningful legislation in all his time as a Senator.  He has abdicated executive duties to Nancy and Harry.  He thinks he can rule by executive order instead of trying to work anything out with the other side.

We could be screwed. 

85 My guess, by the way, isn't that Obama was a D-student. His grades are probably acceptable, though not stellar.

No.  I'm thinking "B".  Lots of A's in upper-level courses (i.e., easy A's in electives and subjective grading) C's generally in required courses.

Remember, he majored in political science.  He wasn't exactly loading up with calculus or organic chemistry.

I suspect, instead, that his transcript is larded up with touchy-feely liberal arts stuff that, with the benefit of hindsight, probably doesn't look too good.

I think it'll be clear that he didn't take anything that wasn't soft if he didn't have to.  I think the real killer, though, is the titles of his courses.  You know at least 3 have to have Marx in the title.

86 Remember Obama himself said that when in college he liked to hang around the Marxist professors.

What other kind of professors are there?

98 >>We all know what's coming. At the very last minute Harvard Law will produce straight A transcripts. Who cares? That misses the point entirely. The whole point of this strategy is to force Obama to play defense. If he gets to set the agenda with the cover of the msm he does whatever the hell he wants. If he is made to constantly answer questions, well people start to have questions. We've been told endlessly that Obama is a genius with Magic Negro type powers. Everyone who already buys this shit is going to vote for him anyway and those that don't aren't going to vote for him if it turns out he's Einstein's smarter younger brother. But there are plenty of people for whom the jury is still out on Obama. If his aura of awesomeness can be chipped away at by questioning the Obama/msm narrative those are votes that can be captured by team us. All Obama has is manufactured awesome. Doubt is his biggest enemy.

109 It's not just that the establishment media is racist (in a soft bigotry of low expectations kind of way). They are also heavily invested in the system. Newspapers get bailouts.

But they benefit from this ass-backwards economic model where Wall Street can threaten another Lehman collapse unless the debt ceiling is raised. These are the elite; Obama is their guy, the personification of a meritocracy to them, whether deserved or not. They will use every dirty trick at their disposal to reelect him.

I hear a British minority politician complain that the press is very comfortable with those currently in power across the western world and intend to keep them there.

143 >>The problem with being a Transcripter is that they could be released right before th eelction showing him to be the genius the media says he is.....and then what?

Then so what?  It's not like people are going to say "ZOMG I guess the last 4 years didn't happen! I guess he's awesome again!"

Besides, people are getting caught up in the immediacy of the moment here: we are more than a YEAR AND A HALF away from the election, i.e. several lifetimes.  This is a story which will play out, if at all, over the next few months or so at most.  It'll be dead long before the real race begins.

Which is one reason why the strategist in me says it's a win-win bet to go for broke.  Again, it's about softening the motherfucker up in advance of the real game.  Take the sheen off of him, make him look like just another sadsack failed President.  Remember folks, Carter was originally hailed as a "super smart nuclear scientist" before he became a hapless clown dishing out "more mush from the wimp."

144
--What about his Grand-mama?

wow, just the other night Cedric Maxwell mentioned Grand-mama, which I haven't heard in ages.

145 #80 - "His background was already vetted in the 2008 campaign."

Seriously? You feel that Obama got a proper vetting? Had a Repulican tried to pull the bullcrap Obama pulled on his birth certificate, the media would have howled the stars out of the sky! The media got away with painting the guy to be a fricken genius - and they still are - look at Milbank's article today! They all need to be disabused of that notion. Until that veneer gets stripped away, Obama still remains untouchable. Yes, the "real" issues will come, but first, his general character and nature must be revealed.

The problem we run into is when we become invested in saying he did poorly. That is where some of the birther stuff went awry for some. People who were invested in him being born in Kenya did look silly - however, it was not wrong to question why he was so resistant to releasing the actual one - AND it didn't even require him to travel to Hawaii.... it was a mere phone call away. Him stubbornly refusing to release it just seemed curiouser and curiouser the longer it went on.

189 I know, I know.  But what is more effective, arguing about font sizes on birth certificates or asking the jackass about gas prices?

We agree on that.  But here's the thing: it's a two-layered game.  I would be mortified and worried if our Prez candidates started picking up this Transcript stuff (or any other small beer, for that matter).  You're right that they should focus on the big stuff: horrible fiscal stewardship, Obamacare, incoherent foreign policy, gas prices etc. etc. etc.  But us?  And useless vanity candidates like Trump?  We have a different set of operating parameters. 

This, incidentally, is EXACTLY the sort of game that the left has been running successfully against us for over a decade -- hitting hard on this nasty crap below the belt while leaving the Official Politican Types free to float above it all.  If the blogosphere and talk radio is worth a sweet goddamn as a meme generator, it will be to push this stuff.

We did it with Kerry's Swift Boat stuff, to be perfectly frank, and it succeeded.  Nobody wanted to touch that shit in the MSM or even the mainstream GOP political class.  But we forced it out there and it had an effect (and rightfully so, because Kerry was a lying disgraceful weasel about his war service).  Why not try and replicate the same thing here?  It goes to the heart of Obama's identity and character as a nominee.

Candidates should remain focused on substantive issues and the Democrats abuse of procedure.

We shouldn't expect conservative candidates to make the personal and nasty arguments. That's up to us. Take every opportunity to slam this guy for every one of his numerous flaws, particularly his serial lies, lack of transparency etc, when just bullshitting or when talking loud in check-out line. Try to make sure everyone you know and everyone you just met are fired up to vote Obama out of office and those that aren't fired up have their doubts..

I don't expect candidates to carry that water, eg. transcripts, Obama condescension, whatever. If this were a war, it must be total war. In total war targets aren't limited. All are good. Media too. Let these mushy independents in on the secret that the MFM lies through omission daily.

"Donald Trump also stepped back into the limelight for a final bow. 'For the first time in his life, he is seriously thinking about running for president.' Of course, itÂ’s not true: Trump made the same threat in January 2000. His short-lived presidential foray was covered by a January 2000 Slate article: 'Trump is considering a run for president.' It was not just a passing fancy, as Trump published a campaign book, The America We Deserve, one week before the DowÂ’s Grand Supercycle top on January 14, 2000. HeÂ’s back, at another market top."  - Elliot Wave

Yeah, too bad that tornado didn't make it up further north to The White City.

198 I think that the transcripts thing is only kinda partially a thing - the point is that Mr Open and Transparent has to be forced into openness and transparentness. But I don't think people care whether he is a super genius or not. If you don't like him, you probably think he's a dumbass already, and if you do like him it doesn't matter cause he's so damn dreamy. Al Gore's grades and IQ stuff was out there, and the fact that he was a C student didn't faze people on thinking that he was just a genius on global warming. W's grades and IQ were out there, and that didn't stop people from thinking he was a retarded chimp if they didn't like him. So I don't see the profit. Rush is right (surprise!) that people (meaning right leaning GOP kind of people) want to see a candidate who pushes back at least as hard, if not twice as hard. Not slinks in the corner and goes "I better not respond because some soccer mom in the Cincinatti suburbs turns the wheel down on her controller when she hears conflict." Look, Obama is a partisan, snippy hack - if people aren't turned off by his slammage, guess what - you can get away with it too. Remember when Rush said he hoped Obama would fail and everyone except Ann Coulter said that he was out of bounds? Well guess what, he's still there and richer than ever. And a lot more people hope Obama fails at his attempt to "fundamentally transform America."

I also thought that it has been pretty funny today when Ace did that stuff in red on each post.  I have an incurable disease that is killing the gray matter in my brain ten times faster than normal aging would do, so I am heartened to find out that my scattered thinking and indecisiveness will now be thought of as a sign of genius.

216 There was a campaign movie about Oliver North's Senate campaign. I remember seeing it on PBS years ago. As I recall, last few days of the campaign, North was ahead by a couple of points in the polls, and the Dem candidate unloaded a ton of negative ads. I forget who, but I think it was North (as opposed to his campaign manager, but I really can't remember - it could have been the manager) who decided not to respond in kind - to stay above the fray. And of course North lost, by a razor thin margin. I recall the last line of the film was essentially. "Shit, I let up. I'll never do that again."

217

O'Asshat is not a deep thinker, not like Jack Handey.

My  favorite Jack Handey quote is from the book What I'd Tell the Martians (or somethign like that) when he wrote about talking to kids.  Quick paraphrase that a kid asked what rain was and he said "Rain is God crying" so the kid asks "Why is God crying?" and he said "I don't know but it was probably something you did"

222 >>The name of the country BEFORE it was named Kenya in 1963 after Jomo Kenyatta was British East Africa Protectorate. >>The name Kenya did not come into play until 1963.... So how could it be in 1961 on a birth certificate a place of birth is listed as Kenya before it was even a country named Kenya??? False. It was know as the Colony and Protectorate of Kenya starting in the '20 or '30s.

223 Why would I need a spaceship:

Black holes, galaxy mergers, gamma ray bursts and magnetars. Super massive black holes can figuratively "lasso" a planet out of the solar system. A clash between two galaxies can result in a barbaric ritual called "galactic cannibalism" in which the dominant galaxy's super massive black hole eats the weaker one. Magnetars are a cosmic magnetic force so strong it could wipe out data on every electronic porn collection on the planet.

224 "Levin also wants to trash Trump because the Donald has not stated what his plans are for lower gas prices, repealing Obamacare, et al. Well, Mr. Levin, I haven't heard any other Republican candidate step up and fulfill that quota either"

Rush did - he said all they would have to do is ANNOUNCE more drilling, and the price would drop. In fact, he thinks Obama is deliberately driving up the price with his policies only to announce next summer reopening drilling to make the prices drop overnight.

225

The name Kenya did not come into play until 1963.... So how could it be in 1961 on a birth certificate a place of birth is listed as Kenya before it was even a country named Kenya???

I am not so  sure about that, if you bing articles on kenya in 1960 you will find a bunch and they call it kenya. If you bing map of africa for 1960 it will show  the country of kenya.

False. It was know as the Colony and Protectorate of Kenya starting in the '20 or '30s.

And before that it was know as "The Land Where Women Walk Around with No Tops" or "Moron Dream Country"

232 See. GOP is totally afraid of the "moderates" who will go into hater mode the second they hear a "meanie" Republican. Like those people fucking exist. Think about the pricks who are popular - Simon Cowell? Donald Trump? Yes, legislators seem to be preferable when they are all Tom Daschle-y or Harry Reid-y or John Boehner-y - always so disappointed, those guys, in how the other side is. For the executive, people like people who draw in bold, declarative strokes. Competent and not scary is not enough. You need to go out and clearly define yourself, your positions, and your opponents, and their positions.

233 This is why Drew and others are telling me my "Release the Transcripts" campaign is a bad idea, I'm guessing. He thinks they are not willing to believe Obama is less than very smart, and further, I'd also guess, that the middle has that Trained Aversion to thinking about anything that might implicate, even indirectly, race and Affirmative Action. Start going down that road and the Trained Aversion kicks in, and they say, "Oh, I don't want to hear about all that."

What a load of bullshit. Get Erik Erikson to ban anyone who mentions it while you're at it. This is the same crap we heard about discussing his birth certifacte and today the schmuck had to release it because a majority of people weren't actually sure the guy was born in HI despite no real evidence to the contrary. If I was advising Trump I'd tell him full speed ahead. Why?

Because Obama got into office running as a blank slate with some nice happy thoughts and promises written on it. Over the past few years those thoughts and promises have gotten steadily erased as each has proven to be a fraud. People are not happy about that. Now there are lots of open spaces on that slate and not surprisingly things like "Where's the Birth certificate?" are sticking because Obama doesn't have anything good to write there. Obama erased that today. The answer to that isn't let's be nice and just play Tic Tac Toe on the blank slate. You replace it with "Where's the Transcripts?" and force Obama to erase it...or leave it there and let people wonder. People are starting to wonder. Either Obama gives them some more hopey, changey stuff or we give them something.

236 It's more a song of optimism and that he hasn't given up on love. I'd kill myself for you. I'd kill YOU for myself. "This Love" - Pantera

237 National Geographic maps from 1960 show "Kenya." Let it go.

238 You see I really want the BC to end things.It doesn't always happen that way.Documents CAN be falsified.Rember GW was AWOL??I can understand people being skeptical,even moreso because the damn thing comes out with NO reason why he should want to hide it.

239 243 Great song!

240 Teh Donald can push the transcript issue to the floorboards, and I'll enjoy the show, but I'm with Ace on this. The rest of the crowd should go hands off, and the libtard ivies will never ever release a pixel of the data. And if Trump can make it so loud, so enduring, such a compelling thing as he was able to do with the BC, my hat is off to him.

241 Levin trashes Trump for 30 minutes and then refuses to take a single call defending Trump.

If Trump needs defending, then Trump is not Trump. 

242 If Donald Audie Murphy Trump takes over the IraqI oilfields, what will the Kurds do when we take over their portion? He should stick to fucking Czech hookers.

243 My apologies. Levin is taking a few calls from Trump supporters. He isn't being kind to them, but oh well.

244 Look, let's get this in the open right now.
Trump ain't running for President. Period. Not this time, not next time, not any time. He's never even considered actually running, not seriously. He doesn't need to. He makes more money than the POTUS, has more power than POTUS, and doesn't have to kiss hands and shake babies every four years to keep his job.
And this, more than anything else, is what scares the fuck out of BlowBamma. Trump has absolutely nothing to lose in any of this. He already has a job, more money than he could ever hope to spend, private planes, yachts, you name it. Unlike someone like Huckabee or Mittens, if he actually ran - and lost - he'd just shrug it off and head back to Florida to make some more money. So - he has no reason not to keep plugging away at all the stuff that Barry has managed to keep secret (with the help of the MFM). All the carefully crafted subterfuge, gone in a flash, and all done by someone who is just digging around for the hell of it.
Brilliant.

245 And if Trump can make it so loud, so enduring, such a compelling thing as he was able to do with the BC, my hat is off to him.

Where did you get that info from?

248

I also thought that it has been pretty funny today when Ace did that stuff in red on each post.  I have an incurable disease that is killing the gray matter in my brain ten times faster than normal aging would do, so I am heartened to find out that my scattered thinking and indecisiveness will now be thought of as a sign of genius.

So sorry to hear that. 

 

249 >>My apologies if I am wrong. No worries.

250 I don't really care about the transcripts, either. Obama is the President. He is where he is. I'd hammer him more on gas prices, oil prices, commodity prices, the declining value of the dollar, high unemployment, another War of Choice in Libya, etc. Forget about his alleged poor performance in college, and focus on his poor performance as President!

251 "...the middle has that Trained Aversion to thinking about anything that might implicate, even indirectly, race and Affirmative Action. Start going down that road and the Trained Aversion kicks in, and they say, "Oh, I don't want to hear about all that..."

Respectful disagreement.  (1)  When it comes to Affirmative Action (AA) the only real aversion the middle has is for affirmative action itself.  Whenever they have been given the chance to vote on it, they reject it by wide margins, even in such reliably blue states as California and Michigan.  In Michigan in 2006, when ending affirmative action was on the ballot along with the Governor, the gutless (and clueless) Republican gubernatorial candidate DeVos opposed ending affirmative action, aligning himself with the Proto-Obama Democrat incumbent Granholm.  DeVos got his ass handed to him but the constitutional amendment passed by 56 percent, a vote identical to what the Democrat governor.  That means an awful lot of folks who pulled the lever for a Democratic governor also pulled the lever to end affirmative action. (And the voters will never be honest with pollsters about their real views on affirmative action either.  A month before the election where it passed with 56 percent one poll had the amendment being defeated with only 40 percent supporting. Either those polled were lying or every undecided voter broke in favor. )

(2)  A lot of voters who took the leap of faith to vote for Obama in 2008 have got to be wondering, what the hell happened?  They are going to want an explanation.  Some  A lot may be willing to go back to square one with the guy and start asking some basic "who exactly is this guy?" kinds of questions.  One such question could be, is he as smart as the media led us to believe? and another could be, "how come we don't know as much about him as we were told about McCain, Kerry, Gore, Bush, Clinton, etc?

It also proved once and for all that there was no imacculate conception.

 

Rush made the comment that the most surprising thing about the Birth Certificate was that Obama was actually born.

255 I wanna hear his explanation for those hundred books that he tried to get banned from the Chicago Public Library.

256 I don't really care about the transcripts, either. Obama is the President. He is where he is.


Me, neither...except as a purely voyeuristic endeavor.
I keep hearing how he must be some kind of genius because he graduated magna cum laude. Whoop-de-fuckin'-do. I graduated magna cum laude, too. It's not that big a deal.
Now, if he had discovered the secret recipe for Val-U-Rite, well...

257

@80: "Regardless of your feelings for Romney, he will run, act and lead like a conservative."

Of course he will.  Of course, conservative politicans tend to be pussies, so that isn't really a stretch.

Ask and you shall receive, Muckdog.

Also on the energy issue, Trump declares: “Obama’s moratorium on drilling has been a total disaster. How could this guy have people not being able to travel, not being able to fill up their tanks with gasoline, and he’s got a moratorium on drilling? We should drill in Alaska, and we should drill all over until we don’t need foreign oil. We should use natural gas and clean coal. We should use everything in our power.”

Noting that the prices of food and clothing have also been rising, Trump says “part of that is because the dollar is so weak. He’s allowed the dollar to fail.

“He likes it because short term it’s a little bit good for the country in terms of trade. But long term, it’s a disaster. He’s allowed the dollar to go so low that it is becoming a laughingstock, just like him.”

Ha!

276 "You can't seriously be suggesting that you would support Trump in a GOP primary, are you?  Seriously?  Let's not kid ourselves here: the man is a half-Democrat opportunist clown who is FAR MORE RINO-ISH than any of the guys you just dumped on, Mitt & Huck included.  You are literally a drooling retard incapable of critical thinking if you don't see that.  There's really no debating this."

Jeff B.  first of all good work, yesterday - I watched it unfold! It was great. Now, Rush addressed the issue you just put forth - a woman caller was on about Trump being a doofus, and expressed concern that he would spoil it for others. Rush politely led her through the current list of contenders and asked her if she thought they would win against Obama. When she realized none of them, and it was so funny listening to her reaction to each of them -  then Rush said so what is wrong with Trump? Or something like that. His point being that those of us who want Obama out would vote for a wet bag of potato chips if it was running against Obama. The media isn't going to like anyone of the current bunch contemplating running, and will like any more conservative even less. So, just relax. If Trump decides to run and he wins the nomination, we will support him over Obama. Hopefully someone else comes along, but for now, Trump is the only one really out there taking Obama on.

That's my story, etc etc

279

So sorry to hear that. 

Thank you.  That's the first time I've said it out loud, so to speak.

I went on a field trip with my daughter's fifth grade class last year to a "green house".  The tour guide was telling the kids that someday they would have to live by riding a bike to make the toaster work, or the TV, all that crap.  When we were driving home I told my daughter that woman was insulting her whole class because she didn't give future people any credit for coming up with a better solution to the problems of today.

I think the same way about my health.  It's incurable now, but it's not deadly, so I have time for someone to come up with something that will help me.  I will say though, having the country going to hell at the same time is kind of bad timing. 

280 Levin is right. Trump is a Trojan Horse. Let him run around, stirring shit up, but no more.

285 From Beldar:

And by November 2012, no undecided voter is going to be much interested in drawing inferences about Obama's likely performance as POTUS in 2013-2017 based on Obama's college or law school transcripts. It's not that the old evidence will become irrelevant, it's just that it's going to be massively outweighed by the much more obvious (indeed, inescapable) and much more current evidence of Obama's massive incompetence combined with fiscal and regulatory recklessness as POTUS.

The problem with this thinking? Obama will run on the "give it time" line the same Bush did with the Iraq War. The transcripts show why more time isn't going to help.We need to give people an explanation of why this was bad policy to begin with. Part of that explanation is that it was made by a pretty mediocre politician, that's why.

Rush can take care of himself. Remember all the screaming over his 'imitation' of the Chinese Prime Minister's speech? I don't think Rush ever apologized though the entire the chattering class was after his head. I heard him make fun of the episode.

Keep the pressure on. I don't care about the grades, I want to see the various college admission records, tuition records and anything else that might show what kind of aid Obama may have received as a 'foreign student'.

 

298 I don't know what exactly Rush has in mind... Posted by: Ace at 07:43 PM There's an easy way to figure that out... (1) tune in to his free show on the radio or (2) read the free transcripts on his website. You do the same thing of which you accuse liberals of doing RE: conservatives. Instead of actually going to the source and finding out the answer to your questions, you simply speculate. As you point out, liberals do this all the time INRE conservatives. Instead of going to the source to figure out what conservatives think, they speculate about conservatives. Try tuning into his show on a regular basis or just reading the transcripts from his show he posts online each evening.

299 Also, you stated this in your last Trump post: "So why the heck is Rush boosting him every day? ... Does Rush not know the man has given mostly to Democrats?" If you bothered to listen to his show or read his transcripts, he actually interviewed Trump on 4/15 and asked him about this very thing: ----- RUSH: But you, you. Last time you were here I shared with you some questions I had from members of my audience uncomfortable with donations that you have made to Democrats: Rahm Emanuel, Chuck Schumer, and so forth. DONALD TRUMP: Right. RUSH: You explained that. You have to do business in the places you live. They're the ones that hold power, hold office. You mentioned compromise just now. Donald, what are you gonna do if you're elected and all of a sudden they start accusing you of wanting to kill babies and kill old people, which they will. That's what they do. Your friendship's gonna go out the window with these guys when it comes to their political power, Donald. They're gonna come after you the same way they go after anybody else in the Republican Party. DONALD TRUMP: Yeah, you're right, Rush, but I will say this. You know, I've dealt with Democrats and Republicans all my life, and somebody said, "Oh, do you have that much experience politically?" You know, I've dealt -- and understand this better than anybody. I've dealt with politicians all of my life. I've also dealt with foreign countries. I'm doing jobs all over the world. I've dealt with foreign countries for a long period of time. The fact is, I think somebody that got along with the Democrats -- and I do get along -- now, you know, that could change instantaneously. You understand that. But the level of animosity... You know, in the old days "across the aisle" wasn't the worst thing. People got along. Today, the level of hatred, the level of anger -- and I'm the most militaristic person there is, if they treat me improperly. But I think having a little bit of a relationship on the other side of the aisle is not so bad, Rush, where deals can be made. But good deals, not the deal like Obama gave the other day. That wasn't a deal, that was a campaign speech. That was his first campaign speech. RUSH: But they're not gonna want you to succeed at anything. They will stop progress for America. Your relationship with them will change once you become elected. If you become president, you might have the ability to bring them in line, but they will not start that way. They will be out to destroy you to preserve their way of life, their political ideology. Remember, their power derives from creating more and more people dependent on government for their daily needs. DONALD TRUMP: Right. RUSH: You don't believe that. DONALD TRUMP: Rush, you're probably right and probably it won't work out in the kind of manner which makes sense and would be good and then they'll see the real Donald Trump, because I do much better under adversity than I do the other way. I'd love to see it work where people could actually get together and go down the line and straighten out this country. You're probably right, and that's fine, and then I'll do I think an even better job. RUSH: Well, it would be fascinating to me because you do know them. DONALD TRUMP: I know them so well it's unbelievable. RUSH: You have socialized with them. I think that if they tried to attack you the way they attack every other conservative or Republican, you might have a leg up on them because you've got years and years of being able to say, "Well, Chuck, you never said that to me before. You never accused me of wanting to kick old people out of their houses. Why do you think I want to do it now?" DONALD TRUMP: Mmm-hmm. ----- Seriously, man, stop acting like the liberals you spent an entire long post describing the other day. Stop speculating and just go to the source to find out the answers to your questions.

300 I think people find Trump appealing because he is not afraid of Obama. He is not afraid of the media. He doesn't care what the ruling class says. He has never backed down. Unfortunately, our side is always compromising and trying to be bipartisan. They are weak and scared. Trump has been a breath of fresh air in this regard. Posted by: runningrn at April 27, 2011 07:59 PM Yep, just take a look at all the popular people in the GOP right now: Sarah Palin, Chris Christie, Herman Cain, Allen West, Donald Trump. What is the common factor among all of them? They go on the offensive against the Left and don't back down. People have had it with the milquetoast, squishy, go-along-to-get-along RINO GOP candidates like McCain, Huckabee, Romney, etc. They want a fighter. Because they know that we are in a political war with the Left for the future survival of this nation and it is going to take a fighter to fight this political war.
