#4 What do you suppose Obama will do and where will he go after the landslide in 2012?

There will be another Reagan style surge and lots of Mercedes and furs at the next Inauguration. 16 big gala parties all over Washington that night....and the cabinet Team will be all Business.

And Americans don't hang anybody when those people lose. Where will Obama go? What will he do with the rest of his life.
He can't grow an Angela Davis haircut and I don't see him making TV commercial endorsements. And Hollywood will drop him flat, they never stick with anyone who isn't "cool". Law Practice....another book? He might have to look for a job.

And somehow I don't think that his deep faith in God will be much help. Maybe he can sell Insurance in Manila.

#5 Does anybody listen to the radio anymore?

Yes, but mostly listening in to Rush which probably is not Obama's target audience.

It won't because his God is Saul Alinskey.

#9 "For all of the challenges we face, we continue to have the best universities

They could be if they actually taught subject matter and not left-wing ideology. They could be if they weren't driven by political correctness. Our largest State universities take huge infusions of Federal money and consequently look like clones of the Federal government. There is a tremendous cost of complying with Federal regulations and requirements in exchange for the boodle.

#10 There are seriously good university departments all over the country -- one reason why so many if the world's best come here to study -- and a few greats. But that's because there's a bell curve of quality in tertiary education as everything else, and we cannot all be one of the best, unless best is defined so far downward as to mean "and they've got their own printer for making certificates and ev'rything!"

#11 Another thing to work on for Obama is his imperious body language. You can mute the TV and tell he's scolding us just from the height of his chin.

#12 Charles pouty face also. The one that gets me is that pointing finger. Then what is a person got to do to have him bow to us!. What Rodney would say "I ain't got no respect".
