Obama loves to lecture others
Barack Obama has been called a lot of things since he hit the national stage:Celebrity,elitist and even one who “pals around with terrorists.” But as his poll numbers come back down to earth,and an emboldened conservative movement sharpens its attacks,the label that seems to be sticking to Obama as much as any lately is that of “professor.”
Speaking to Tea Party activists in Nashville last week,Sarah Palin did her part to keep the “professor” dig in circulation.
"They know we’re at war,and to win that war we need a commander in chief,not a professor of law standing at the lectern,” the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee told a frenzied crowd.
Obama’s years on the University of Chicago’s faculty have proven a double edged sword. While his supporters accept his higher education experience as evidence of a thoughtful pragmatism,the “professor” label has just as easily been used as a bristly brush,painting the president as an out of touch dreamer who formed theories in the Ivory Tower that can’t be translated into concrete policies from the White House.
The attacks on Obama aren’t new to politics,and they reveal longstanding stereotypes about the professoriate that continue to speak to a subsection of the electorate for whom higher education is regarded with skepticism,a number of political thinkers and academics said in interviews.

The corruption we have in Washington needs to be cleaned up,and yes,we should question everything they are pulling on us. Raise your voices and let it be heard. Let's be like the heroes of the past,such as Paul Revere and Patrick Henry. These were valiant men who loved America.
Mack Daddy in our house is what he is.
Professor Obama needs to pack up and go back to the community organizer ranks…..with the well respected and highly desired ACORN groups,or what even "new and improved "name they have whitewashed themsleves with lately.
Possibly he can contribute to the ACLU,the American Criminal Liberties Union,seem these and the SEIU,or Federal Employees union are the only groups that his bribes will imperess anymore.
Maybe Rev Wright was right,"he is just anoither Politian that will say anothing to buy a vote!"
