Constitutional Twat

Why Obama Voted Against Roberts

“ As some of you know, I have not only argued cases before appellate courts but for 10 years was a member of the University of Chicago Law School faculty and taught courses in constitutional law. The problem I had is that when I examined Judge Roberts' record and history of public service, it is my personal estimation that he has far more often used his formidable skills on behalf of the strong in opposition to the weak. In his work in the White House and the Solicitor General's Office, he seemed to have consistently sided with those who were dismissive of efforts to eradicate the remnants of racial discrimination in our political process. In these same positions, he seemed dismissive of the concerns that it is harder to make it in this world and in this economy when you are a woman rather than a man. - Sen. Barack  Obama  Rama-Dong-Dong.   ”

The problem I have with this narcissist Pretend President is he also pretends he was, or embellishes his role in a lot of things.   Let's put one of those in a proper resting position right now.  Obama NOT a University of Chicago law school professor. [Chicago Sun Times] He did not hold the title of professor of law,” said Marsha Ferziger Nagorsky, an Assistant Dean for Communications and Lecturer in Law at the school, on East 60th St. in Chicago  [Democratic Underground] Barack Obama may well know a lot more about constitutional law than the average person, or even the average lawyer. But he is not a Professor of Constitutional Law. Nor is he an assistant professor or associate professor. At most, he's an "adjunct professor," which is not the same thing at all.  (We report you decide, wot?) [Powerline] Frankly, Obama's credentials seem a bit thin to be teaching constitutional law at a school of Chicago's caliber, even as an adjunct professor teaching a non-core course. Obama does not  appear to have practiced in the field of constitutional law, nor did he clerk for a Supreme Court Justice or  publish in the field. I'm guessing this was a "marriage" of convenience. Obama got something to add to his resume and the University got an upwardly mobile minority faculty member. And in the unlikely event that some of his students were complaining then, they probably aren't now.  Powerline made this spot on observation about Barry Barry Mo Mary's would be ilk ... I hope Obama was smiling when he said this because, if anything, constitutional law professors are less likely than their fellow Americans to respect the Constitution. As Obama surely knows, some Con Law profs view the Constitution as a malleable document that's worthy of respect only to the extent it can be interpreted to mandate, or at least not impede, the enactment of their preferred political, social, and economic agenda. The respect in these cases is not for the Constitution but for the agenda, and perhaps for the professor's own cleverness in manipulating the Constitution to accommodate it. ”
