Freepers are so dumb they're actually criticizing Obama
Edited on Tue Feb-24-09 11:54 PM by pnwmom
for not looking directly at the camera when he gave his speech. And applauding Jindal for doing so.

In case any freepers are reading this: Obama's speech was directed to the 535 members of Congress who were in the Chamber with him -- of course he didn't just stand there, staring robotically into the camera like Jindal.

I don't know about the Harvard thing, though.

With that hands-on ability, she looks more like an engineer to me.

How about MIT?

:)

10. She's graduating from Harvard in June!
Her major is Clinical psychology.
She was just accepted to Washington University at St. Louis in a 6 year Masters/PHD program. :bounce:

But I get the "Hands-on" Ability jive from the photo......but her forte is writing and research.

Thanks for asking though. I'm proud, and appreciate the interest. :)

12. LOL, I missed the '09 part -- thought she was a toddler, still.
My baby girl graduated from that other school in Cambridge -- hence, my bias.

I'm so glad for all our kids' sakes that Obama is making sure that they're going to have a future.

15. My daughter Brittany graduated with a degree in
Clinical Psychology from George Washington U last May and is now in her first year in the PhD program at Michigan State. You must be so proud, I know I am.

By the way, I agree with you.... Fuck 'em.

9. They don't realize it. Remember, they're still waiting for him
to show his birth certificate.

11. Oy...and Jindal putting in his pitch like he was Prez threw me off.
Edited on Wed Feb-25-09 12:19 AM by vaberella
Did you notice where he was talking from was similar to when Obama talks to the press. Fuckin' pissed me off.

17. I didn't even watch it
I watched Andy Griffith till Jindal was done. I figure I will hear bits and pieces of it. I watched President Obama he was great.
