A day after President Obama declared that his administration is not “some academic exercise,” Lawrence Summers announced plans to step down as director of the president’s National Economic Council and return to Harvard University. Christina Romer just left her post as head of the White House Council of Economic Advisers to go back to the University of California, Berkeley.

The current administration has suffered from a historic lack of private-sector experience,

“Academic exercise” is another way of saying “Cluster F***”.

The sooner this regime is gone, the better.

Here is what Brit Hume thinks of Obama’s economic team. Would make an excellent political ad for Republicans.

I was thinking about this yesterday. The Obama admin and the democrats have decimated the lives of so many people to prove something to themselves.

What idiotic, arrogant, miserable jokes they are. Anyone who has a child attending any classes these failures teach should be refunded their tuition money ASAP.

“Obama Administration Has Been An ‘Academic Exercise’”

Yeah, an exercise in the stupidity and worthlessness of affirmative action.

It is basically a study in how to destroy the best country in the world. We need to get away, as far as we can, from the New World order. The American people need to say NO.

When I was still in school, many, many years ago, I had a prof that said “If we weren’t careful, there would be only three to four governments in the world.” In his way of thinking, this was the plan for the future. I wish he was still alive today to hear his opinion of what is going on today. He was right on. When you look at the EU, the plans for the NAU, etc, you will see what he was talking about.

In Woodwards new book it says that Obama hands out homework assignments to his staff.

Funny how they always scurry back to their little academic hothouses to ponder why their latest marxist theory didn’t work as planned.

They’re all going back universities...where it doesn’t matter if you’re a complete failure - as long as you have tenure and you tell the rest of the faculty how great they are.

“...The sooner this regime is gone, the better...”

Insert “Criminal Thug” in front of “regime”.

There! Fixed it!
