Sarah Palin's Undergraduate Odyssey

POSTED BY: Ethan Ris

I really wanted to not write about Sarah Palin today, but my God I just can't help myself. The latest news is that Palin apparently had a somewhat non-traditional college experience. As in, she transferred schools six times…

1. Palin matriculates as a freshman at the University of Hawaii at Hilo. She drops out "after a few weeks because of the constant rain there."

2. Palin enrolls at Hawaii Pacific University, a private college in Honolulu, as a Business Administration major. She leaves after a semester.

3. Palin transfers to North Idaho College, a Coeur d'Alene community college. She completes two semesters as a General Studies Major.

4. Palin transfers to the University of Idaho as a sophomore, in the Journalism program

5. Palin transfers to to Matanuska-Susitna College in Alaska and completes one semesters.

6. Palin heads back to the University of Idaho for three more semesters and graduates with a degree in Journalism.

Now, a lot of Americans may be able to identify with Palin's undergraduate odyssey – but not her running mate, John McCain. McCain only attended one college, the United States Naval Academy. But maybe he should have considered transferring – ideally to a school where he wouldn't have finished #894 out of the 899 graduates in his class!

  1. Was she in a sorority ? Anyone know why she was where she was ?

  2. I have recently been looking for a job and I find it interesting that you have to have more education to be a librarian than you do to be President or VP of this country.
    What's up with that…oh, I know, you have to have money, a certain pedigree and powerful friends that network you into the top spot.

    Lucky for Palin, they needed to pull a female, evangelical rabbit out of the hat to get the women and christians back on board to vote republican.

    At least they didn't pull the gay marriage thing out again like they did to put Bush back in office in 2004.

    Oh, I wish the American public would wake up.

  3. The whole college degree thing is pretty clear to me. She transfers six times in six years to some real academic powerhouses, I would love to see her transcripts. Everyone knows the old trick where those who are academically challenged transfer all around to pass the required classes for their degree. I mean what the hell is a Matanuska? I believe it is code for "if you have the money, we've got your grade." Face it, this woman, this ticket is no brain trust. On the other hand we have a Harvard Law Graduate. Oh go ahead and bash Harvard as a pompus uptight Ivy League pretense but admit it, you would and so would Sarah Palin, give your front teeth for a degree from Harvard. Don't lie. We are on to you people.
    Face it deputydog, you have no brain, and your candidates stand for nothing except prolonging a war that we all agree was predicated on a lie and fear. You do not want a democrat in the White House because you are afraid your taxes will go up, you selfish child. I am sure that when you or a family member is sick, your health insurance covers a visit to the doctor. It is a sin that the wealthiest country in the world does not have universal health care. I already know the first words out of your mouth will be that I am a socialist or a communist or something else because I believe we all deserve equal opportunities, the opportunity to continued education beyond high school, if desired, should be for anyone, not only the rich. I don't propose giving it away, you must work part time, make passing grades and stay out of trouble and graduate on time. Imagine everyone who wants a better job getting a better job! Imagine the expanded tax base! We might not have to raise taxes on the most wealthy 2% of Americans to make ends meet. The war has us so tied beyond our means, the dollar is no longer king. The Euro is the preferred currency in International Circles. That my friends is darn sad. I believe the way I believe, I vote the way I vote because it is the RIGHT thing to do. You and your party will deny healthcare to the poor and working poor. I am a proud American greatful to share what I have with those less fortunate. I was raised from nothing. I earned every penny I have ever saved or spent. No one gave me anything. I have been blessed in so many wonderful ways. I thank God for my blessings and then ask myself what would my God think? No, you republicans do not have a monopoly on God. I am a proud faith based liberal. Go spout your fear based hate on the republican site. Republicans never offer us the Hope that comes with Change, only the Fear based lies that keep us stuck in the status quo where they can continue paying little or no taxes.

  4. You wanna know something really scary? I'd rather have Moe, Larry, Curly, and Dick with their finger near the button than Palin.

  5. Hey "deputy", I hope you are not on the clock when you post to this blog. But then again, you are probably just another lying republican that cheats on his taxes and timeslip. Speaking of cheating, is it true that the bimbo charged the state for 312 days of per diem while staying at her own home? Is it true that her husband is on the state
    payroll? Is it true that her husband and children charged the state of Alaska $43,000.00 for travel expenses? Is it true that after the bridge to now where was cancelled, she kept $223,000,000.00 and spent some of it on a road to the bridge that got cancelled? It is true that she was elected with only 17% of the vote. one more thing, I have been to Alaska and if you want to see some hot chicks, check out Good Time Charlies in Soldotna. Believe me after going there you will agree that sara has a lot more in common with pit bulls than you have been led to believe. Good post Kyle. By the way, taxes MUST go up because of the fiscally incompetent republicans.
    Just like sara (Mrs. Patato Head) the chimp is going to leave us just as she left Wasilla…deep in debt.

  6. MCPETE you are pathetic as usual. Taxes must go up because people like you and Kyle. If you wanna give your money to the lazy unfortunate people of this state then go ahead. Yea if my family gets sick or I get sick and go to the hospital my insurance ( which I pay for ) covers most of it after my deductible. Like it should be moron. Why should I pay for your healthinsurance ?? If you want health insurance get your own. Why do Americans pay for the illegal immigrants whop have no medical insurance ???? This country is taxed to death because of idiots like you. All you can do is preach hate. MCPETE you are wrong on so many levels you are a complete idiot. Show some facts to back your STUPID comments. I have asked you before and you still CANT GIVE ANY FACTS.. Kyle , you seem smart what makes a person rich ???? 25k 35k 55k 75k 100k 150k 200k ayear ??? 75k is far drom being rich, so since Obama has made it clear for everyone to see that he will raise taxes on 75k a year I guess you are wrong about only the rich being taxed. You are right , the europeans have such great health care, why in the world do the rich ones come here for health care services ????? I bet you never even been over there ?? I bet you have absolutely no idea about their health care system. I bet you have nothing to base your opinion on. Opinions are like asses eveyone has one…Obviously mcpetey can not read or does not understand what he reads or he would know I am not on the clock while on this blog. Try reading the posts again moron…….you guys act like kids pointing fingers at everyone calling them names, lying about crap and acting like you know everything. Pretending that you care , when was the last time you gave to charity Kyle ???? When was the last time you sacrificed for someone you do not know Kyle ???? Would you lay your life on the line for someone who is not immediate family Kyle ?? I seriously doubt you would. I thought Dems and Libs were the Party of caring and compassion??? Reading these posts one may think you are a bunch of hate mongers.All you do is trash talk people , on here that is but in real life I bet you dont. Very pathetic. I still wait for the facts give me some links ????????????????/ and not from WIKIDPEDIA so come on you smart guys show me some facts too back your ass up ??? I've shown mine now if you can show me some dam facts, if not it just shows how you have none…………

  7. Well…this is all fine and dandy…but I'm the atheist here and you can only imagine what it looks like from here. "The old guy" who crashes 5 planes and the hockey mom a'la pitbull with lipstick. By the way, in Miami-Dade County, FL you need a wild animal permit and an insurance policy AND a 6+ft high fence to legally own an American Pit Bull Terrier, FYI. So back to the clumsy soldier who crashed 5 planes and the beauty queen from Alaska. My only fear is that we've got 87 religious groups around the world ready to blow eachother up and we're gonna stick the fundamentalists to run the show? Lemme tell ya….that's got 2012 Apocalypse written alllll over it.

  8. Wouldn't it be great if the Bush, McCain, Palin and CHENEY families all went out huntin' together? It'd be a real swell day for 75% of the nation. GO CHENEY!!!

  9. Hey "deputy" at least I am not a parasite that feeds on taxes. I am sure that you are always willing to lay your life on the line for your fellow man. BULLSHIT. YOU ARE PATHETIC. Now smart guy, refute the facts or go on your own neo-con job blog. You are boring. By the way clean out your ears, Obama said he was going to raise taxes on people that make over $250,000.00 per year. That would mean even a parasite like youself will get a tax break so now are you going to vote for Obama or isnt that good enough? Maybe you dont need a tax break because you already make more stealing money from the people you roust or from selling illegal guns that you keep when you roust or the illegal drugs that you dont turn in. Punk.
