Freeper 'investigates' Obama's time at Columbia.
Edited on Sat Nov-01-08 05:25 PM by Fuzz
NEW REPORT on OBAMA's MYSTERY YEARS at COLUMBIA:

"Recently" I traveled up to the Campus of Columbia University to do some research on BHO's "missing years" as a student at Columbia College.

This is my report (fwiw).

I looked through every page of every issue of The Columbia Spectator published during bho's time on campus (Aug1981-Jun1983).

No smoking guns. Nothing of any great immediate value BUT some interesting leads for further pursuit and some strange stuff to report...

First, what I didn't find is almost as interesting as what I did find...

* BHO is never mentioned in the paper during the period

* No photographs of BHO

* BHO never ran for any College Office

* BHO never participated in any varsity or intramural sports

* BHO "probably" was not an active member of any club or service organization(INCLUDING the Black Student Organization)

--------------------------

I deleted a bunch of stuff, you can go there and look if you want, but here's the REAL KICKER!!!!

--------------------------

One other interesting point -- though a non-sequitur.

I had forgotten that Columbia was STILL AN ALL-MALE SCHOOL during the time bho attended (Columbia went coed the year after bho left)... Although Barnard was across the street and there were girls "around"... Since Obama apparently lived WAY off campus -- he probably had very little opportunity to meet and socialize with girls at school...

So... Obama knowingly transferred from a co-ed instituion in sunny Los Angeles with (presumable at least a few) hot girls so that he can go to an ALL MALE school in NYC? Well, to each his own -- but not a choice i would have made at 20 years old...

Oh -- did i mention? -- that Columbia College was famously the "gayest school in the Ivy league" at the time? And not just the student body -- one of the reasons that Columbia was so late to go coed was that many of the (gay) faculty members at the college resisted the move strenuosly. You can draw your own conclusions but I don't think it is out of the question that Obama engaged in a certain amount of sexual experimentation while at Columbia. THe story about the girlfriend featured in "Dreams from my Father" has always smelled funny to me... fwiw.

I'll head back to campus soon to check other resources and will report again when done.


A report from my recent visit on campus at Columbia University where I reviewed every copy of The Columbia Spectator published during Obama's years at the school...

No smoking gun - but some interesting stuff...

8. Knowing Obama he probably had a job to pay bills
while in school and from everything I have read about him he was very serious about his studies. I think sports are more for fun and staying in shape with him after high school.

15. A lot of DUers claim everybody they dislike is gay, too. Generally with equally thin "evidence."

17. other famous columbians:
Al Haig
Thomas Dewey
Pat Buchanan
Norman Pohhoretz
George Pataki

All engaged in "sexual experimentation" no doubt. And Dwight Eisenhower was president of Columbia for a period in the late 40s. Hmmm...

And Lou Gehrig....clearly batted from both sides of the plate.

Oh, and not that it matters...during the time Obama was at Columbia (and for years prior to that), Columbia and Barnard had a reciprocal agreement whereby students from one school could attend classes with students from the other.

And as someone who attended Columbia (albeit as a graduate student, not undergraduate) in the late 70s, let me note that everyone was getting laid.
