And, despite your enlightened views on education, wages, and supporting the elderly, you consistently support the party that has universally done violence to any possible program that would advance those causes. Is this irreconciliable internal inconsistency why you are such a recalcitrant belligerent drunk? Or is it the other way around?
It's the marxist left that has since the days of Dewey have dumbed down education. Chicago math, is the latest outrage that should start a shooting war. Euducation should be like Marine Corps boot camp. DRILL and KILL. And we shouldn't be supporting the elderly. We should be enabling the elderly to support themselves without working. (Privatization, instead of taxing them out of it, from the first day they work on the books, to support someone else that bought in. Yes, Pay me taxes, and take my (unenforceable) IOU)
Thank you for that clear and lucid explanation. Enjoy your weekend, cycle off the purple drank after a couple hours.
Thinking, is...an exercise that pays dividends..you might wish to try it sometime. Now Google ITA. Initial Teaching Alphabet. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initial_Teaching_Alphabet then Chicago Math. Note the chronological distances apart, and note that the latter is still in force (as part of the C0mmon Curriculum) and the former, a relic of the early 70's.
Simple declaratory sentences. Proper grammar recognizable to someone who went to school in this country within the last century. Making your point without inscrutable references to impossibly obscure sources. You might wish to try it sometime. After they cut you off at the bar.
The Tea Party extremists: why don't they just start their own party. Because they are taking down the GOP with another potential gov shutdown over PP. This without any investigation and based on videos made by a group with no credibility. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/polit...-grows/ar-AAedsaB?li=AAa0dzB&ocid=mailsignout And they wonder why a guy like Trump is popular. And beating the tar out of the other candidates including Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee, etc. Some of their key members are saying they are tired of compromising. Well in that case don't run for Congress because that's what it's all about.
Hillary is a much weaker candidate than she seems at first glance. That's why Obama rolled her when he went all in early in the primaries. She has the backing of the Clinton wing of the Democratic Party but she doesn't have the bonafides to excite Liberals and she doesn't have Bill's ironclad lock on the African American vote. She's at 68% net favorability with adult African American voters. Bill was never under 85% with that group in '92. Now in truth African American voters will overwhelmingly support her in the general election but they're not convinced she's golden in the primaries, at least not yet. The other factor is that Bill is a double-edged sword. He remains very popular with non-Liberal Democrats but his legacy over the years has been tarnished by the effect of his policies on urban society in America. He didn't make bad choices most of the time but the results were bad for a lot of people. Replacing welfare with stop and frisk is something that urban voters can't ignore completely and that happened on his watch. Seeing educational funding drop over time is another blot. Watching globalization steal good American jobs has effected everybody outside the top 2% or so and Bush destroyed Bill's economic legacy by leaving such a fiscal mess by the time he left office. I don't see Hillary as any kind of lock at this point. I don't think she'll lose to Donald Trump but I would not be surprised to see somebody with a very catchy very bad idea come out of nowhere to win the election.
Odd..the quote you embedded was what you askedfor minus my penchant for using punctuation to elicit speech patterns. Clearly they never cut you off at the bar, because you could not quote my John Dewey rant, which in the age of the interwebz, the average 6 year old can do.
Your grasp of politics...or should I say blind party line towing...is astounding...and a second reading of your post, indicates a complete divorce from reality.
Before you retort to me. explain why... Is anathema to the candidates of the left... What Democrat is running as a PROUD LIBERAL? Name one. You are one and good at arguing it. Lots of proud conservatives out there. Name 6 proud LIBERALS.
Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren and half the Democrats in congress, maybe more. The Democratic Party has been getting more Liberal over the last couple of cycles as the Republicans have gotten more Conservative. That's why so many people are really frustrated at this point. They're sitting in the middle of the spectrum and neither party is talking to them. Obama's biggest sin was removing Howard Dean from his prominent role in the party. Dean and Jim Webb were carving out a major piece of the moderate spectrum for the Democrats and creating a good sized majority. Obama and Pelosi pushed Dean aside and the Democrats have been dealing with an electoral problem ever since. Not a Presidential problem or even a Senate problem, a problem with heavily gerrymandered House districts and no blue dogs to contest them. The Senate issues were based on the normal cycle of which seats were up in each 2 year cycle. The Republicans helped the Democrats out 2 straight elections by running candidates too Conservative to win statewide offices. Then last time around they got smart and ran people closer to the middle of the spectrum and broke through. Now the tide will turn again as the Republicans are suddenly defending many more seats than the Democrats and Conservative voters are demanding returns from the guys they helped elect and pushing them too far to the right in the process. It's a cycle.
If you heard any of Trump's speech in Dallas tonight he just isn't a good speaker. And while he tries to hit hard with the key popular signature expressions of his campaign so far, I thought he was basically boring. We've heard the same thing a thousand times and knowing the American public it'll eventually get stale unless he comes up with some new material. I thought he was barely articulate.
You realize of course...PCL wouldn't get that in a million years, unless someone explicitly explained it to him? But you get my vote for post of the year.
