Education Policy

'Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin seems to have switched colleges at least six times in six years. The transfers included two stints at the University of Idaho before Palin graduated from there in 1987 with a degree in journalism. Federal privacy laws prohibit the schools from disclosing her grades, and none of the schools contacted by The Associated Press could say why she transferred. There’s no indication any were contacted as part of the background investigation of Palin by presidential candidate John McCain’s campaign.' [AP]

Wow, you guys in the liberal media are really out to get this woman, aren't you? I guess she must be the most evil, most villainous human being in America, the way you guys talk.

No. 2 Jaroslaw says:

Thierry - you're mentally challenged. The Republicans have out and out lies about Obama on their websites or did until recently; there is nothing wrong with investigating the truth. Transferring colleges six times in as many years probably happens to less than one tenth of one percent of the total college population.

Don't you think that MIGHT possibly be worth looking into?

No. 3 Rachel Cohen says:

Why? She ran out of money? She wasn't an affirmative action recipient? She was homesick? She missed her boyfriend? What's the BFD?
Obama switched schools as well. And he'd gone to the most expensive private school in Hawaii.

@ #3,

You are the average wingnut. Either you are uneducated or you got an education but lack common sense or connectedness.

Of course Obama switched scools, but he graduated from Harvard. Obama went to expensive schools because unlike then Chene, Bush and McCain, he didn't have RICH fathers and grandfathers - Obama had to bank on his INTELLIGENCE. And I can assure you that Obama is not just better suited and more educated than McCain, Bush and their dumbo side kicks, he is versed in all the issues we face.

The propaganda that he went to the most expensive schools without telling the real truth that Obama's father got a scholarship to Harvard. He was a goat herder. His mother was on Welfare with him and it was his endurance that took him to harvard. NOT RICH PARENTS!!

You stupid Republicans or racists - whichever suits you or combo - just don't get it. You can lie only so much. The reality is that if Obama doesn't win, we will be stuck with a senile puppet and a corrupt uneducated, unversed person with a handicapped child wearing lipstick. IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THAT AMERICA DESERVES THIS..

Ignorance, Idiocy and Prejudice will bring America to its knees. Democratize that!!

No. 5 Eleanore says:

Wow, Coco. First of all, I absolutely LOVE how you stoop to such a low level and call Republicans stupid and racists. I mean, I'm not a Republican, but I have the decency as a liberal to be a big person and stand for what I believe in without degrading the other party. I feel sorry for you, I really do. You're just another person who has let the media influence your life so much that you can't form your own opinions, and you have to call Republicans racists just because they're not voting for an African American man.
Obama has my vote, but really Coco, you need some manners and decency. :)
