I've said it before, and I'll say it again. No way I'll vote for either of the demented Democrats; I've paid my UNfair share of taxes, and everything else about 'em sucks. Truly.
McCain? No way. Too old to be a Democrat-in-Training? Nah.
Alan Keyes? God forbid, he's as sorry a sanctimonious pontificator as I've had the misfortune to witness.
So, let's see who the Libertarian nominee might be.
Come to think of it, with all those congressional probabilities
making for a more socialist country, we'll probably start selling
our stuff and moving to Costa Rica or the Urca neighborhood of Rio
de Janeiro. At least you can smoke on the beach...

NICE NONWORK IF YOU CAN GET IT
Re: Windsor Mann's Money for
Nothing:
Public school teachers do more whining about their jobs than any other profession I can think of. That seems strange to me considering they normally enjoy lifetime employment and receive a very decent salary considering they are, by industry standards, only part-time employees. (And please, spare me the stories about the 4th grade teacher who goes home and spends hours each night grading papers and preparing for the next day. Nobody believes that anymore.)
I do have a question, though. College professors claim tenure is
absolutely necessary to protect "academic freedom." Can someone
please explain to me why a 2nd grade teacher needs tenure?

Maybe someday, in a distant future, Americans will figure out that
a union's primary purpose is to promote and protect the jobs of its
members. Ergo, even under the best of circumstances, the concerns
of student and their parents come second to those of
teachers -- period.

THE LOWER 40
Re: Peter Ferrara's The
Strategy of the Smart Surrender:
It is highly unethical that the bottom 40% wage earners pay no
tax at all. What is their contribution to America? Asking for a
handout? It is morally imperative that they pay the very least 5%
in taxes so that they feel part of the American tax paying
experience. People have to learn they are expected to pay their
way, too. That means turning takers into givers. If, after all
that, they need help then help should be given. But first pay in
before you take out!

Peter Ferrara underestimates the power of "sound-byte politics." The siren song of "entitlements" coupled with the reality that 60% of Americans pay little or nothing for the "upkeep" of the country gives the "free lunch" espousers a huge advantage over the advocates of "economic growth."
Growth is in the future. Something for nothing is right now.
Gimme, gimme wins in a rout.

Re: Lisa Fabrizio's Right-Wing
Perverts:
It's tiring listening to these scatter-brained liberals who
behave worse than juveniles. Any criticizing of them or even a
perception of such by them invokes screeching and howling that has
me rolling my eyes in disgust. These are types of people who when
they are unable to make reasoned, and persuasive arguments resort
to mass protests, shouting down their opponents, making personal
attacks, character assassinations, death threats, and then claiming
to be victimized. These people have no dignity and display childish
selfishness. Too bad we can't legislate people to grow up!
