The Left fears Sarah Palin....and it shows.
Barack Obama graduated magna cum laude.
At Harvard, magna cum laude distinction is currently awarded to the top 20% of a graduating class.
Sarah attended six colleges in six years. She was in school for only a few weeks at the University of Hawaii at Hilo in the fall of 1982. She then transferred to Hawaii Pacific University in the same semester as a Business Administration major.
Next, she was off to Northern Idaho College (a community college in Coeur d'Alene) for the spring and fall semesters in 1983. She then transferred to the University of Idaho as a Journalism major in Fall 1984 and Spring 1985. She returned to a community college in Alaska in Fall 1985 (Matanuska-Susitna College). She ended her college soujourn at the University of Idaho with two semesters in 1986. She finished her journalism degree at that same school in Spring, 1987.
There is no record that she worked on the newspapers at any of the schools or the college television stations at two schools that offered that experience. Her grade point average has yet to be released by the campaign.

Grades are everything, folks.
Obviously, if they were, there's be a direct correlation between grades and success in life.
The correleation betweeen grades and success exists, but the correlation is rather weak. Much weaker than, for example, what class you were raised in.
Sarah obviously has some intelligence given how high she climbed in life.
Likewise, Obama.
Both started out as nobodies who become somebodies.
That reality alone shows us how silly it is for people to try to say that either of them are dummies or fakes.
You cannot fake that kind of success, folks.

Grades aren't everything, folks.
Obviously, if they were, there'd be a strong correlation between grades and worldly success later in life.
The correleation betweeen grades and success exists, but the correlation is rather weak. Much weaker than, for example, what class you were raised in, as indicative of where you end up.

Just an example of someone who didn't do so well in school but was still an intelligent human being:
Albert Einstein
"It seems that he continued to show little respect for his teachers, as he was not a regular attender at lectures. He spent considerable time studying physics on his own. Despite the lack of time in lecture halls, he graduated as a teacher of physics and mathematics in 1900, but was unable to obtain a post in the university. It has been suggested that he had not impressed his professors enough, which is perhaps not surprising, given his attitude, and so did not receive their all-important backing for an academic career."
Good grades are not an indicator of honesty or leadership potential.
To what end would you even attempt to make any claim about Obama's Harvard grades? Do you have ANY sort of evidence to support a claim that he had sub-3.3 grades?
Or are just pulling crap out of your butt?
The fact that he was selected as an editor of the review and respected enough by his fellow editors to be elected president - seems to indicate he was very good academically at Harvard. With no evidence to suggest anything to the contrary, why would you even try?
He also graduated with Magna Cum Laude honors in Harvard. That means he is in the top 20% of the class. That's no easy achievement.
But.....but..... we've been led to believe that he's the smartest President in our history....not just the top 20%. Wasn't Bill Clinton a Rhodes Scholar..
....and he had problems keeping his dick in his pants.
I really don't think how smart you are has anything to do with how honest you are....nor how good a leader you are.

That's because the media is good at what they do.
They're good at destroying people.
Good grades are not an indicator of honesty or leadership potential.
No but they are a good indication of intelligence, work ethic, and the rest you get form things like heading the Law Review.

Ah, the party that claims the mantra of 'personal responsibility' blaming others as usual...
Palin Who Attended 6 Colleges in 6 years, Attacks Obama as Professor | ChattahBox News Blog
.Now, in her latest Facebook entry, Palin chimes in on the Christmas-day attempted terror attack and failures in intelligence gathering, taking cheap shots at President Obama, deriding him as a professor and talking tough. And as usual, her nonsensical attacks quickly fall away under the barest of scrutiny.
Palin returned to her usual anti-intellectual meme, suggesting Americans prefer an idiotic chest-thumping leader, rather than the highly intelligent adult President we finally have, who takes careful measure, before making policy changes that affect all of us.
Is this true, are we really only comfortable with the marauding territorial chimp, or the greyback gorilla on meat and steroids model???
Last I heard Palin isn't running for anything. The left thinks she's stupid, inept and a non-entity. Why all the concern for what she says or does???
I would think folks would be more concerned with what the current administration is up to. After all. They are the ones running the show.

He knows how to "pencil whip"?, that should scare the terrorists.

Ah, the party that claims the mantra of 'personal responsibility' blaming others as usual...
Not 'the party', just 'a person'.... Some people can't differentiate between the opinion of one and the opinoin of a group. That is a liberal trait.
Also, are you honestly trying to say that the media does not influence how people view others? Your 'personal responsibility' comment doesn't stand up. Even an idiot knows that the media make or break a person's reputation. Just look at the ridiculous and oft repeated claim that Palin said she could see Russia from her house. Classic example of media influence over the masses.

Palin Russia War Quotes Quotes from the Sarah Palin interview with Charlie Gibson, where Palin showed her lack of foriegn policy experience by saying she would go to war with Russia over Georgia.
The McCain camp has been touting Sarah Palins foriegn policy experience because Alaska is close to Russia (see Cindy McCain video clip below), and sure enough, thats almost a direct quote of what Palin led with.
PALIN: And, Charlie, youre in Alaska. We have that very narrow maritime border between the United States, and the 49th state, Alaska, and Russia. They are our next door neighbors.We need to have a good relationship with them. Theyre very, very important to us and they are our next door neighbor.
GIBSON: What insight into Russian actions, particularly in the last couple of weeks, does the proximity of the state give you?
PALIN: Theyre our next door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
COURIC: You've cited Alaska's proximity to Russia as part of your foreign policy experience. What did you mean by that?
PALIN: That Alaska has a very narrow maritime border between a foreign country, Russia, and on our other side, the land-- boundary that we have with-- Canada. It-- it's funny that a comment like that was-- kind of made to-- cari-- I don't know, you know? Reporters--
COURIC: Mock?
PALIN: Yeah, mocked, I guess that's the word, yeah.
COURIC: Explain to me why that enhances your foreign policy credentials.
PALIN: Well, it certainly does because our-- our next door neighbors are foreign countries. They're in the state that I am the executive of. And there in Russia--
COURIC: Have you ever been involved with any negotiations, for example, with the Russians?
PALIN: We have trade missions back and forth. We-- we do-- it's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where-- where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is-- from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there. They are right next to-- to our state.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
GIBSON: But as you know, the questions revolve really around foreign policy experience. Can you honestly say you feel confident having someone who hasn't traveled outside the United States until last year, dealing with an insurgent Russia, with an Iran with nuclear ambitions, with an unstable Pakistan, not to mention the war on terror?
MCCAIN: Sure. And one of the key elements of America's national security requirements are energy. She understands the energy issues better than anybody I know in Washington, D.C., and she understands. Alaska is right next to Russia. She understands that.
