[Are you kidding me, a 2.6 GPA and this guy became the leader of the Free World? One thing is certain, if we leave him in, we won't be free for long along with a lot of other predictions Winston Churchill made. I guess that sorta explains the dumpster diving in NYC by desperate people looking for food, the long gas lines there as well, Joe Torres's cousins remarks yesterday that "New York City was a Hell, not made of fire, but of water" and the story that's emerging of our presidential dufus's lies to cover more of his lies.]
"The shroud over President Barack Obamas college records recently spotlighted by Donald Trumps $5 million challenge is prompting Americans to share what theyve got, and The Daily Caller is getting its share of leads, including one story that the president scored a GPA of only 2.6 at Columbia University.
The 2.6 grade cant be confirmed, is contradicted by some evidence, and it doesnt say anything about the courses, professors and associations Obama was immersed in during his two-year stay in Columbia.
But the source is credible, and hes contributing to the collective effort by Americans to find out more about their president who is a champion of a greater role for himself and other government officials in Americans personal lives, social norms and career opportunities.
The source for the 2.6 number is a successful Silicon Valley entrepreneur and a Columbia alumnus who maintains good ties with the university.
In 2004, after Obamas successful speech at thats years Democratic convention, a Columbia University official told him Barack Obamas GPA, he explained to TheDC.
This person told me that he [Obama] was a pre-law, poli-sci major, had a lot of incompletes, and as best could be determined after sorting through the incompletes, had a GPA of 2.6, said the businessman, a former Marine Corps combat veteran.
The source asked not to be named, but TheDC has verified at least one $2,500 contribution he made to Columbia.
The claim matches some of the other reports about Columbias arrivals in 1981, and some of Obamas comments about his college career, including his 1981 transfer from Occidental College to Columbia."

[I dunno about youse guys and the supposed 'Grade Point Inflation' the author was referring to, but I had to earn every freaking 'A' I received, but the following article is where the dufus really shows up in this supoosed "Smartest evahh". Remember, GM and Chrysler took in every U of M affirmative action graduate that came knocking on their doors over a thirty year period and look what happened to them. I know, I know, I know the UAW is still alive but just stop and ask some of the bondholders of the old auto makers where their money went? Its all in "Money Heaven"]
"The burning question is why Obama didn't give orders to defend our consulate and American lives in Benghazi. The answer is becoming clearer each time President Obama and Secretary of Defense Panetta issue a denial or explanation of their inaction.
To the president's surprise, he chanced on an honest reporter during a local interview on the campaign trail in Denver. On October 26, for the first time, Obama was asked directly about the explosive reports on CBS and Fox News, a week earlier, that the CIA and our military denied direct requests for help by the Americans fighting for their lives during the seven-hour battle in Benghazi.
Denver TV's Kyle Clark twice tried to pin Obama down by asking the key question: "Were they denied requests for help during the attack?"
Obama's answer is the proof of his guilt, and it gives us a clue as to the doctrine informing his decision to do nothing. The most damaging part of Obama's evasive answer is this:
... the minute I found out what was happening, I gave three very clear directives. Number one, make sure that we are securing our personnel and doing whatever we need to. ... I guarantee you that everyone in the state department, our military, the CIA, you name it, had number-one priority making sure that people were safe.
This is the blatant lie that condemns the liar. The president says here that immediately, "the minute I found out what was happening," he gave the order to the military, the CIA, to everyone, to secure our personnel in Benghazi and do "whatever we need to."
Yet the undeniable fact is that nothing was done. We know that the CIA security agent in Benghazi, Tyrone Woods, asked for permission to rescue Ambassador Stevens when Stevens was still alive and in the safe room. Woods was told twice by the CIA to stand down. He then disobeyed direct orders and rescued the survivors at the consulate, but it was too late for Stevens and Sean Smith.
Secretary of Defense Panetta tells us the military had gunships and Special Forces less than two hours away in Sicily but felt it was too "risky" to send in reinforcements or air cover. It would have been normal military procedure to pre-position air cover and assets from Sicily to Benghazi, but Panetta says this was not done. The air support and FAST platoons, we are told, were left in Sicily. All the U.S. military did was send two unarmed drones to observe the battle.
So if President Obama is not lying about his directives, he is saying that the CIA and the Defense Department and our military chain of command disobeyed the direct order of our commander in chief to do everything in their power to rescue our people under attack in Benghazi. And that as commander in chief, Obama did nothing in response to their dereliction of duty
That doesn't happen. No one believes that; the president is lying. He did not issue directives to the CIA, our military, and State to "secure our personnel" and "do whatever we need to do."
We know it was not the CIA on its own that made the decision to abandon Ambassador Stevens and the eight others with him in the consulate. The CIA say they did not advise anyone in the administration to deny help to the Americans in Benghazi. A CIA spokesman on October 27 issued this statement:
No one at any level in the CIA told anybody not to help those in need; claims to the contrary are simply inaccurate.
General Carter F. Ham, the combatant commander of Africa Command (AFRICOM), says he was never asked to send help.
Congressman Jason Chaffetz, Utah Republican, said that General Ham told him during a visit to Libya that he had never been asked to provide military support for the Americans under attack in Benghazi.
On October 18, General Ham resigned."

[Then on top of all that comes word that Nancy Pelosi is getting copious amounts of CAIR monies to assist with her re election campaign. Do you remember the unnamed Intel Officer during those few immediate post Benghazi Congressional hearings alleging that the "Taliban was already in the buildings.." in Benghazi? Well, the Taliban was not only already in the buildings at Benghazi, they're in the Pentagon building here at home, the House of Representatives buildings, the Senate buildings and the White House. Remember the means by which the citizens of Troy were defeated!]
