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

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

It's a Hawaiian good-luck symbol.

Cheers!

To Obama’s goat-like political base, this explanation makes sense.

Then again, if Obama said it was because the moon was in the 7th house, his backers would buy it - and so would the MSM... The bar's not too high for dems.

"...since he is a former professor of law..."

Carney, of course, can't help lying - - it's in his job description as a mouthpiece for a Democrat.

Repeat a lie often enough, the Democrats and their newsrooms know, and some people eventually believe it.

The skinny little POS Ubama was no "law professor", let alone a frpofessor of constitutional law. He was a guest lecturer who was little more than an occasional substitute teacher for the real professors.

Here is an interesting recent post from freeper, AnAmericanMother:

"He was an "adjunct professor" = a non-tenure-track resume-enhancer for local lawyers to 'give back' to their alma mater. It's also a way for the law school to keep in touch with local law firms or (in Obama's case) do a favor for some influential local politician.

"I was an "adjunct professor" for years at my law school, but I was never under any illusions as to the importance of it or that it meant that I was a particularly learned person or great lawyer. I was helping out my school and getting something nice and public-spirited to put on my resume, nothing more.

"-- this sort of position I suppose is technically speaking a "professor" because it's in the title, but it is either unpaid or carries a very small honorarium. IIRC, I got the whopping sum of $200 for a whole semester's work. Didn't even pay for my outlay in gas and paper, never mind my time."

Right On! No one seems to understand this - he was a lousy guest lecturer, not a law professor!

What a joke!

Supreme Contempt

Three branches of government become one as president becomes king.

Photobucket
A 'Constitutional Scholar' Who Doesn't Understand the Constitution

Barack installs himself as head of all 3 branches of government.

After 3+ years, we have found that Obama's purpose and agenda did not fit the meaning of his words and promises. He always felt that the Supreme Court was inconsequential and Congress was just something to go around if one wanted real social justice.

So now President Trojan Horse, the former 'lecturer' on the Constitution at the University of Chicago, was forced on the defensive Wednesday and has set forth a 'good example' of judicial activism. He's disbanded the 'do-nothing' Congress and the nine Supremes.

The 'You'll Never Be Able To Go Back To Your Life As You've Known It' Act was signed into law by the all-infuriating Barry Jackwagon Obama who said that 'in order for all of us to get along and go along the three branches of the American government are hereby decreed to be headed by the Jug Eared CinC Cipher who resides in the Oval Office.'

With his new authority the Supreme Ruler commanded it 'a duly constituted and passed law' of the land.

Barry admitted his first big premeditated lie to the American people was when he took the oath of office... to uphold and defend the Constitution. He said it was a 'major lie.' Then the all- knowing and sensing president also muttered something to the effect that his entire life has been leading up to this revolutionary moment and that resistance was futile... The planned hell-holes you all will eventually end up in don't allow vacations or SUV's...

He's doing whatever he wants with impunity and he knows that no one is going to call him on it.

Where can I get myself an official Obama Dictator flag. Do they sell them on his website?

I’m a pilot and we all speak “shorthand” and in acronyms. I couldn’t understand him at all. To me, it sounded like he was speaking “Austrian”.

Misunderstanding Obama is not limited to laymen. The other day a panel of federal judges ordered the DoJ to explain it in writing, and affirm that Obama recognizes the authority of the courts.

He’s about as much a “law professor” as he is a “US citizen”

And the only “shorthand” he knows, he learned from his college roommate.

No, Mr. Carney...it’s NOT called shorthand....

It’s called “Dumbass”.

There...fixed it.
