I, for one, am certain that his acceptance had nothing to do with him having attended a prestigious preparatory school with a Yale alumnus and President of the United States for a father.[/quote]
I don’t think the math works out that he’d in college while 41 was POTUS.

He graduated from Yale and Harvard prior to his dad become VP if I’m not mistaken. He was accepted based on Legacy. [/quote]
Yeah, I get that. I’m just pointing out that taking a swipe at someone’s schooling, and trying to insult their intelligence while doing it, using a statement that is ridiculously false is… Well pretty fuking funny, in a “that really destroys your entire position” type of way.
I know it’s wiki but:
Yale 64-68
Harvard 73-however long it took him.
Seeing as HW didn’t get elected POTUS until '89 looks like the entire point was utter bullshit then. I mean, 41 wasn’t even in the House when 43 started college. 41 was Chair of the Republican party when 43 got into Harvard… You know right around when Nixon was going down and republican brand was in the shitter, so I guess Harvard of all places folded to Republican pressure (lmao) and admitted 43.[/quote]
Oh ya, I’m with you. Ivy league is Ivy league and getting in is only the beginning anyway.

To be fair, I’ve heard that once you get in they try their damned hardest to have you graduate with a great GPA and credentials and such.
Anything less would tarnish their reputation.[/quote]
I suppose that could be true. I would think the opposite though, if they push people through that end up being idiots wouldn’t that tarnish their reputation even more so?

My edit came down, so people won’t know what you’re talking about, lol.
But yeah… She just needs to get out in front of the economic news and do so in a less business person way… It’s going to hurt her badly though, the left is going to have a fuckign field day with the false bullshit facebook meme’s.

At this point I don’t think she’s gonna get the nomination anyway. She’s the Mitt Romney of this election and my gut says the party isn’t going to use the same kind of candidate against Hillary (or whoever).
As bad as it sounds (I think it’s fine, but that’s not the world we live in anymore) the fact that she’s a woman should help her if she gets the nomination. I think it really helps her if Hillary doesn’t end up begin the Democrats candidate.

That’s why they only take the very best at enrollment =P It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy of sorts. Take the very best and give them a stellar education and a stellar resume. You’ll have to be a damned idiot to fail outright with that.
But they wouldn’t have picked you if you were a damned idiot!
Anyways. Honestly, I think Bush 43 is a very capable individual. I think Obama is a capable individual too. I still strongly disagree with most of their policies and what they did throughout their presidencies.

Agreed. But this is America. If you disagree with someone, it HAS to be because they are stupid, no one smart can disagree with you.
(because if you admitted those that disagree with you were smart, you might be the stupid one… Can’t have that.)
She’s gonna get slaughtered on the layoffs. Slaughtered!
Lefty’s are drooling to pin that shit on a Republican. [/quote]
Barbara Boxer tooled her in the California Senate Race in 2010 over this very issue.
Here’s what the announcer in the Democratic incumbent’s ad says: "As CEO of HP, Carly Fiorina laid off 30,000 workers. Fiorina shipped jobs to China.
“And while Californians lost their jobs, Fiorina tripled her salary, bought a million-dollar yacht and five corporate jets … Carly Fiorina. Outsourcing jobs. Out for herself.”

HA! Too funny. I swear I missed my calling sometimes. I’d give Axelrod a run for his mustache oops I mean money.
