Ingraham: "If I were" Obama's teacher, "I would probably hold him back a year," then make him take basic economics and history

Everything I need to know, I learned in Kindergarten.

Excuse me, it's naptime.

Ingraham is a lawyer who was a briefing clerk for Justice Clarence Thomas. Her problem isn't that she isn't well-versed in the law, it's that she is a hard-lined partisan who really hates anything she believes is "liberal." She would have given Obama a failing grade even if he had brought about 0% unemployment in the first 10 months of his presidency, a chicken in every pot and a paid-for Lexus in every garage.

IRONY, Amen to that.

It's not that their ideas won't see the light of day. I had a few professors who were very conservative. It's just they also recognized their responsibilities as professors were to expose their students to a variety of ideas. My teachers exposed me to both conservative and more liberal schools of thought on many subjects. Students are supposed to be taught the many ways to reach a conclusion if multiple ways exist. It's not realistic to believe that there is only one viewpoint for every problem. They are also taught how to properly back up their conclusion with proof. Many of the conservatives who attack acedamia don't care that many of the same professors they criticize are very conservative. They just want to make a boogeyman out of something. So they preach against anything that may cause people to think rather than mindlessly repeat and believe in something.

Oh, its no attempt, Dolly -- its full-on swiftboating.

And the reason why is obvious: the wingnuts simply CANNOT believe that a black man has obtained as much education as Obama has, and definitely cannot believe he's holding the position he does.

This explains why {college dropout} Sean Hannity assigns "grades" -- all F's -- and why Ingraham talks about "holding him back" a grade: these a-holes get a perverse sort of pleasure by treating a man with Obama's education {which has far exceeded theirs} as a "bad student" . . .

That says it all!! St Ronnie is called up as a hero for everything Republicans distort!.Reganomics never worked for anyone except the Rich!!Tax cuts did not create lots of jobs... just made the rich richer.Additional profits from reduced taxes will only be reinvested in job creating expansions if demand goes up for those products or services.It probably goes more for bonuses and increased payout to executives than for job creation!! He was a likable grandfather to many but was not sensitive to the needs of common citizen or minorities in particular!!His policies reflected that.Why he is touted so much is beyond me..how about Iran/Contras!???
