  1. Yes well, you can see why McCartney would feel intellectually superior to the former president, given his superior educational credentials………oh wait.

  2. Obama knows what a library is because his Uncle Frank told little Barry what a great one they have in the Kremlin.

    “Gol-lee! Really, Uncle Frank? Gee whillikers, when I grow up, I wanna be a Communist too!”

  3. Why would anyone who was paying attention during the period of the Beatles, new left and the sexual and moral revolution be shocked at anything a former rocker of that period would say? Particularly a man who is amongst the most spoiled, feted and rich on the entire planet.

    These people may be many things, but “class” is not in their repertoire.

  4. K,
    You are right, we shouldn’t be surprised, at the sentiment anyway. What surprised me was the need he felt to express the sentiment. I mean I could think of a lot of things to say if I found myself in the company of a president I liked a lot. Making a joke (based on a very stall meme) about his predecessor isn’t one of them.

  5. McCartney’s divorce settlement with Heather Mills cost him approximately £800/hour, 24 hours a day, for the four year duration of their marriage.

    I don’t think he can talk about other people’s marriages.

  6. McCartney didn’t go to college. Bush did.
    Bush has a graduate degree, an MBA.
    Bush learned how to fly jet aircraft. Dangerous ones, F-102s.
    How can a doofus like McCartney dump on someone’s intellect that has intellectual aciievements far beyond his?

    Disclosure: I was a Stones fan, not a Beatles fan

  7. “I was a Stones fan, not a Beatles fan”

    Nice thing about the Stones is that they never tried to be more than they were.

    Disclosure: Still a Beatles fan. In their day, they were the best at what they did, but pretty much incompetent in every other area of life.

  8. Was it McCartney who in the ’60s praised that other librarian Mao? If it was, it explains why he fits in with Obama’s crowd.
