Irregular Times Diaries: Unfit DiscussionIn a time of the spring, old paths are obscured and new growth begins.
You know, Clinton, when you call someone else a liar, you need to be sure you are right.
“Sen. Obama consistently and falsely claims that he was a law professor.”
http://www.hillaryclinton.com/news/release/view/?id=6752
“From 1992 until his election to the U.S. Senate in 2004, Barack Obama served as a professor in the Law School…. Several times during his 12 years as a professor in the Law School, Obama was invited to join the faculty in a full-time tenure-track position, but he declined.”

Obama’s rubber. Clinton, you’re glue. It bounces off him and sticks to you.

The Hillary Clinton campaign claims “professors have tenure while lecturers do not”.
That’s complete nonsense. There are different tiers of professors, starting with adjunct professors, who teach a class here and there, and then on to associate professors, then full professors, all the way to professors emeritus.
Only someone who hasn’t been to college would believe the claim that “professors have tenure while lecturers do not’. Maybe that’s who the Hillary Clinton for President campaign is aiming for.

[…] The same press release contains another silly attack - the claim that Barack Obama was never a professor, even though the University of Chicago hired Barack Obama as a professor, and called him a professor. Go on to the diaries to read more about that. […]

Not terribly surprising that U of C backed up its favorite son, especially since Michele served on their hospital board. Law school professors are usually JDs, not PhDs as in other academic settings. Obama was still claiming to be a U of C professor when he ran for office in 2004, although technically he was on leave and never returned. I work for a college but would never claim to be professor, more like adult educator.
Well, that’s one of the Hillary talking points about Obama padding his resume, want to try for the other 9?
