Just pre-empting the predicted liberal spin on this story:
Obama applied for a position as an adjunct and wasn’t even considered. A few weeks later the law school got a phone call from the Board of Trustees telling them to find him an office, put him on the payroll, and give him a class to teach. The Board told him he didn’t have to be a member of the faculty, but they needed to give him a temporary position. He was never a professor and was hardly an adjunct.
The other professors hated him because he was lazy, unqualified, never attended any of the faculty meetings, and it was clear that the position was nothing more than a political stepping stool. According to my professor friend, he had the lowest intellectual capacity in the building.

A good original article by directorblue, and many valuable comments. Although the article isn’t well-sourced it is logical, and ties in with Steve Sailer’s “America’s Half-Blood Ptince.”
Golden Dancer always comes apart as soon as you examine it…
Birtherism has found a new front. Ms. Taintz would be proud.
It fits with the observations of Obama in the Senate. From the time he arrived, he was the worst Senator at missing votes, and even worse at committee meetings where the real work is done. Obama was usually late (showing disrespect for his colleagues) and offered nothing at all. During one meeting he slipped a note to his aide which read “Please kill me” – unfortunately, the aide took it to be sarcasm.
He had a worse attendance record that the final four years of either Strom Thurmond or Robert Byrd’s service, and both those men were suffering from the health problems which would lead to their deaths in office, so at least they had an excuse.
The man’s a buffoon, a placeholder, an actor who reads a decent speech off teleprompters and has a demeanor which is easily confused for intellectual seriousness, but only disguises a condescending solipsistic narcissism with no depth at all.
Ever hear the story of how he was elected President of Harvard’s Law Review? It was related by one of his colleagues at the time, and before the 2008 election, but failed to get much attention.
It was a prestigious spot and there was tough campaigning to get it. You had to have a majority, and no one could muster it. Ballot after ballot with shifting alliances and multiple candidates. It got bitter, angry, old friendships ended over the nasty infighting.
Finally, the major candidates withdrew, one by one, as they realized they could never get a majority, and the second, third, and fourth tier candidates had the same experience. Near the end, almost no one was even speaking to anyone else.
On the 53rd ballot (yep!), they finally turned to the one guy who hadn’t pissed off bunches of people – because he hadn’t said a word during the hours of voting. No one could even remember if he had voted. Obama did nothing to earn or win the office, it was his by default.
You really are a moron.
Jut remember that when Mittens loses against the clown this fall.
I do hope I’m wrong, but the real difference is marginal.
For those of us who never used a dictionary for a pillow when young:
>‘solipsism’: the view or theory that only the self really exists or can be known.
>‘narcissism’: self-love; extreme vanity’.
NTTAWWT, of course.
“Well that just can’t be, you haters. Barack Obama is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being we’ve ever known in our lives.” – The American Media
So Obama was not only leading from behind, he was leading from so far behind that he was in front as everyone was just about to lap him as they left the arena? Yeah, I can believe that.
I hereby denounce myself, comrades. While exercising this AM, a ditty popped into my head, “If you’re unemployed and like it, Vote Barack …” to the tune of the children’s song, “If you’re happy and you know it, Clap your hands”.
Best to go pack my bags for re-education camp after Glorious Leader’s coronation, er, re-election…
Working on your bug out kit would be wiser.
Obviously, but I was trying to keep it light and jokey.
Solzhenitsyn’s remark about how they all burned at the camp with remorse thinking about how they should have resisted rather than going to the Gulag quietly has always stuck with me.
If that be treason, let us make the most of it.
You’re right, that birtherism bit is a bunch of shit. I have it on good authority that Obama wasn’t born, he was hatched out of a fucking rattlesnake egg.

How dare you imply Barrack was birthered. He was created by some mad Marxist scientist to destroy tyhe Wester
Off are lithium again? But tell us all how you got out of your straitjacket. Barrack is headed to a massive defeat and the dhimmies know it. That’s why they’re retiring in droves.
Of course you can, you voted for Barrack’s drivel and promises. What’s that tell us about your IQ?
