In what way, Charlie?
Don't confuse the number of times a talking point is repeated with actual importance.
Bush's grades were part of a piece of the way he talked and the way he attacked the job of president, e.g., http://www.slate.com...d_man.single.html Did his grades tell us anything different about the way he did his job? Obama's college grades would tell us what, exactly, about him or the way he does his job? Cheers, Scott. |

Considering
the current reports that he has closed himself off...I'd say right now they would be particularly relevant and important.
And I really don't expect anything from you except that you will jump to his defense. Regardless of what has been done to others in equal or near position. Sure, understanding today's complex world of the future is a little like having bees live in your head. But...there they are.

<sigh> In what way, Charlie?
I'd say right now they would be particularly relevant and important. I ask again - How? Cheers, Scott. |

I'll tell you why people care one way or the other
Bush II seemed both STUPID and LAZY.
And people really wanted to know how the hell he got though his college years. People look at Obama, his history, his books, his accomplishments (that were not driven by a rich connected daddy) and easily see the intelligence. So those for him know it doesn't matter, and those against him are scared, so they'll try to pick apart anything they can. Sorry. Non issue unless you are looking for some type of smoking gun. If I was him I'd limit it too. Why give the wacko something to pick apart while you were in college? He's already done the job, judge him on that. |

You mean like how his long form birth certificate
was relevant?
Hawaii released the short form, legally good enough to get a US passport. Unacceptable to the Tea Party and wingnut RepubliCANTs. Then Obama releases the long form birth certificate - and it's STILL NOT GOOD ENOUGH. Hell, just this week Gov. Goodhair was talking to The Donald and then was quoted in an interview that he's still not certain that Obama is really a US citizen. In other words, he's continuing to pander to the stupid people who support the RepubliCANT Party and will do anything to de-legitimize Obama's presidency. "Chicago to my mind was the only place to be. ... I above all liked the city because it was filled with people all a-bustle, and the clatter of hooves and carriages, and with delivery wagons and drays and peddlers and the boom and clank of freight trains. And when those black clouds came sailing in from the west, pouring thunderstorms upon us so that you couldn't hear the cries or curses of humankind, I liked that best of all. Chicago could stand up to the worst God had to offer. I understood why it was built--a place for trade, of course, with railroads and ships and so on, but mostly to give all of us a magnitude of defiance that is not provided by one house on the plains. And the plains is where those storms come from." -- E.L. Doctorow |

obama never released the long form
they were very careful that the form(which has been analyzed as photoshopped) never came from him

If obama never released the long form
would the RepubliCANTS and Teabaggers ever have stopped their incessant whining about demanding proof that he was born in the USA? Not a fucking chance!
