Please

Last summer the Obamas took a one week beach vacation to Hyannis Port. Bob Burton the assistant press secretary was asked what was on Obama's reading list. Burton had a list of five books at the ready, and exclaimed at length what a voracious reader was Obama. This I doubt based upon recent history. A voracious reader reads everything.

If Obama has included a book on geography in his past readings he would have learned the Austrians speak German in Austria, not Austrian, which after 47 years of living Obama failed to learn. Hey anybody can have a senior moment or a low hand shake. (Just in case it comes up, BOH, the Australians speak English, sorta, in Australia).


Obama also needs to spend some time in Webster's, there he would learn the "s" is silent in Corpsman. To date, no rank, in any known military, has ever bestowed the rank of Corpse Man on any member in its service. Neither have our beloved Marine Corps,ever stormed a beachhead with anything other than living, breathing souls. If Obama would actually learn some American History, he just might come to learn a thing or two about life in these United States and how we got here.

Seven years, five of which at Ivy League Universities, Occidental, Columbia and Harvard Law, plus a couple years as a practicing attorney/University of Chicago guest professor, seem somewhat wasted when one somehow misses such basic pieces of knowledge. Does it not make you wonder what else is missing??? I've rarely met a doper who had much going on upstairs. These people were the folks more concerned with getting high, than they were with learning what the instructors were teaching, whether it was High School or College, Ivy or otherwise.

Now it confirms my intial suspicion Obama actually thought his first 100 days assignment to his Cabinet to cut $100 million from their departmental operating expenses was a significant number. What a neophyte. Who was really impressed by that sophomoric farce of an exercise but only the truly moronic.

Burton needs to enroll Obama into some remedial math and reading classes. A good no child left behind elementary.
