White House press secretary Jay Carney tells the press corps that President Obama's attack on the Supreme Court was misunderstood because he was speaking in "shorthand" since he is a former professor of law.

Henry: The president is a former constitutional law professor. One of his professors is Laurence Tribe. He now says, in his words, the president

There’s something you have to wonder about. If the President was this well versed on Constitutional law, and actually taught classes in Chicago....how many lawyers in the Chicago region think and practice law in this same manner today?

His class in election law was pretty small potatoes, just another undemanding elective to fill up students' schedules.

They would have learned what they needed to know to practice law from other teachers who presumably knew what they were talking about.

Assistant gasbag is more like it. I always resent how some people think of Zero as a Chi-Town "thug"

He's just a skinny little twerp ass, rump swab on a power trip.

Keep digging, Jay; with all that manure there’s just GOTTA be a jackass in there somewhere.

Did anyone click over to the other video? The Press Corp is actually laughing at him trying to answer questions about this...

Good one (your ROFLMAO sign language).

I can see Obama giving you the middle finger in return, saying it means, "Bless you, my son."

“But it does appear that 0bama does not even know ‘shorthand.’ For how he spoke, one might just call him a traitor. For his threat reveals his intention to break his oath of office and undermine judicial authority.”

Obama only speaks well when speaking Arabic; I wouldn’t call the teleprompter thing “speaking” as much as “reading aloud”.

That is the most absurd thing I have ever heard. After bill clinton, we all understand political ‘shorthand’...democrat AND republican.
This astard said what he meant and meant what he said.

Not if its “Marxist Shorthand”. Then they get shoved up otherwise discrete areas.

These idiots think they are so smart to think they can talk around the issue while discussing the very issue. The court smacked his lackey over it and he decided to dump and sit on the excrement he intends.

Carney: What I acknowledged yesterday is that speaking on Monday the president was not clearly understood by some people because he is a law professor, he spoke in shorthand.

Duh, no wonder me no understand. Obama speak in shorthand. Obama use big words. He so smart. Americans so dumb. What an elitist POS!

LOL!

In my best Reagan imitation, “There he goes again, speaking shorthand.”

I had better see some funny but hard hitting Anti-Obama commercials from this.

Looks like a law degree from Harvard means you are ignorant of the US Constitution.

Cut your losses with this guy Harvard, he's ruining your reputation.

I hope they pay Carney a decent salary because even a kool aid drinker like him most wonder as he lays his head on his pillow at night just what the hell his boss is doing

No..his official title was “senior lecturer”. Whatever the hell that is...but it ain’t no REAL teacher :)
-——————————————————————————————I had a bunch of those lecturers in engineering school. My preference was for tenured professors. (I am being polite here about my preference and experience with lecturers)
My skin crawls every time Zero is referred to as a professor.
