I'm still waiting for her to tell us how someone gets to be president of harvard law review by affirmative action. (oh right.. they can't)
I didn't find anything ridiculous in your response to that email. Nor did I get the impression that you implied Obama sent it to you.
As far as the notion that voting against Obama is racist, its my opinion that only racists are making that claim while simultaneously promoting Obama because of his race.
Now thats RACIST.
Good post Chic.
so he scored the highest on a test?
And what part of that, exactly, disputes that he got onto law review by being top ten percent of his class.
Exactly, how did you go about determining that Obama was in the "top ten percent" of any class, including preschool???
"For starters, Obama did not do nearly well enough at his previous stop, Columbia University, to justify admission to Harvard Law.
According to the New York Sun, university spokesman Brian Connolly confirmed that Obama graduated in 1983 with a major in political science but without honors.
In the age of affirmative action and grade inflation, a minority in a relatively easy major like political science had to under-perform dramatically to avoid minimal honors. Obama apparently did just that.
The specifics we may never know. As the New York Times concedes, Obama "declined repeated requests to talk about his New York years, release his Columbia transcript or identify even a single fellow student, co-worker, roommate or friend from those years." __Jack Cashill, WorldNetDaily, Sept 11, 2008
Now I would go further, but I don't want you to get too angry. You might be tempted to send your flying monkeys after me.
It is usually (in 2001, at least) a combination of grades, a writing sample and interviews. I imagine it was the same when he was at Harvard.

Not in my school. Was top ten percent only. Nice to see you again, Reilly.
What on earth are you talking about. Let me explain this to you slowly, sweetie. I don't want to tax your brain too much. It's not about class placement before law school. The top ten percent of a law school class is given the opportunity to be on law review. It does not matter how the person did before.
He only got onto the Harvard Law Review in the first place because he made that cut-off.
So your efforts at smears about his Columbia years are pretty unimpressive.
Sending you original souce material is useless, since comprehension is the heart of (one of your) problem(s). Let's bullet-point the items under discussion,
1. Obama did not get into Harvard on merit.
2. He was selected for his position on the Law Review, in part, for racial balance.
3. He hides all of his academic records, probably because they would put the lie to the fantasies you left-wingers have created about him.
4. Further, alllow me to voice these questions: who wrote letters and used influence to get him into Columbia and Harvard? Who paid for this education, since his financial disclosure forms do not list student-loan payments? Why the secrecy?
Now, respond to the above, preferably item by item, or go back into the corner and we'll continue to water you twice a day.

Good article, though.
And I'm pretty sure you liked the NY Times when good ole Judy Miller was shilling for you guys and banging the drums to go to Iraq.
It was supposed to be a message about racism. Clearly, the only racism that is being spewed is by the Obama people.
However, they obviously did a good job because he did very well while he was there.
On what basis, do you say that Obama did very well?
Keep in mind that Obama's supporters have saturated media outlets and internet bandwidth for the last two years with stories of Obama's "academic degrees and honors." Now they viciously attack those who want to see Obama's grades and scores on standardized tests.
Do you always change the subject when you lose?
