President Obama threatens to circumvent Congress with his ‘pen and phone’ strategy

http://www.glennbeck.com/2014/01/15/president-obama-threatens-to-circumvent-congress-with-his-pen-and-phone-strategy/

“Do you hear what he’s saying,” Glenn asked. “He’s got a phone, and he’ll call the universities. And he will get people called into action. He will call the labor unions. He will call the non-profits into action.”

One guest said that equality can only be achieved by NOT teaching White children for 100 years.

The North tried that against the South after the Civil War, suppressing industry and education for whites as well as blacks. It worked, before easy interstate travel, ubiquitous access to higher education and the Internet. Now, you have families like the Robertsons who defy all nasty racist stereotypes -- they are smart, educated, have two children of color adopted into the family, people love their clean show and appreciate their praying -- how can that be? sniff the producers.

Ah, college presidents. That’s the job you get when you serve absolutely no real use with regard to real academic courses.

And, of course, that’s why the Obamadork invited them to the Felon House. Equal non-achievers discussing subjects none of them could possibly ever understand.

These termites are up to no good. Lefty coordination is in the works, in preparation for the 2014 midterms. The shiny object for this election will be income inequality, like the War on Women was for the last. The Dem schemers are enlisting compliant college presidents, giving them their marching orders.

I’m guessing that when the presidents leave the White Hut, they will be saying to each other “Well, at least he’s OUR dumbass!”

I doubt it. My son attends Purdue, the other graduated from there. I’ve met Daniels a few times. Daniels was a coup for Purdue; he’s instituted a tuition freeze and capped salaries. The academics hate him. He won’t get invited to the White Hut. He displays “wrong thinking” as he actually expects results.

Even though I’m an IU grad, I’m glad by boys have or are getting degrees that will have real value.

Barky needs to be outfitted with a straight-jacket, a leash, and a muzzle. After the shock treatments.

Why, instead, doesn’t he invite teen-age girls, especially inner-city minority girls, to the White House? He and his wife could tell them to stay in school, to study instead of having sex with their serial boyfriends and having children out of wedlock. Then they might eventually have children raised in a stable family who would qualify totally on their own for admission to the more competitive universities. That would be *real* affirmative action.

If someone could get us the names of the 100 college and university officials attending....I’m sure we could find their salaries....should be public information.
