What Makes Us Wise?

“That is extremely thoughtful and probably very near the truth. To put it in a more homely metaphor: 'Wisdom is knowledge stewed in a pot of time'”
Sarah Palin Dissed John and Sam Adams, Ben Franklin, the Original George W. and the Rest of the Founding Fathers!

“I agree with the observations and analogy...I would add: About one third of the people in the colonies remained loyal to the crown and fought against the revolution. Today about one third of the citizens of this nation are registered Republicans, and they too are fighting against changing the status quo.
Some things in human nature do not evolve as rapidly as we might like.”

Bush's Banned Interview: An Insight Into Insanity
Commented Jul 11, 2008 at 16:11:52 in Politics
“Complain, point fingers, condemn all will those in the Whitehouse for the past 8 years...it remains a fact that it was a MAJORITY of voters who re-elected them! Americans are the slime, the scum, the culprits, our leaders are just our reflections. Look around you, 4 years ago over 50% of all those you see supported George Bush, Inc.
So screw you, screw us. It is probably time that some other bunch of idiots in some other nation suffering from delusions of grandeur take over the 'hog-herding duties'.”

“Look, fella, MY VOTE Flew out the back of a "Voting Machine" down here in North Carolina, OR Didn't You Hear??
So, NO, you're NOT Right! "ALL" Americans DID NOT Vote this Disgrace into the White House.

“Well, he was NOT elected by a MAJORITY of the people..it was pretty much a split down the middle in those elections. Still, you're right about 50% of the American populace. AL Gore should have coasted into the White House and John Kerry, blehhh. It was the political genius and strategy of Karl Rove, Ralph Reed and their ilk that persuaded the south atlantic/ midwest bible belts, with the "who would jesus have voted for?" mentality. Nothing like being endorsed by god to appeal to a bunch of idiots, in the throes of religious fanaticism. Manifest destiny conquered this country and it continues to conquer our destiny as a nation. So, yeah..we may just be screwed, no matter who takes over the "hog-herding duties" with delusions of grandeur..ours or some other nation!”

“Actually, a majority not only did not vote for him, a majority voted for someone else.”
Obama's Faith-Based Plan
Commented Jul 03, 2008 at 11:00:47 in Politics
“It seems to me that not to long ago the 'progressives' were loudly decrying the Bush/Rove faith-based plans as being contrary to the Constitutions tenets. Most, if not all Constitutional scholars agree with that view. So Obama supporters you are either twirly-eyed religious nuts who have deserted one ship in order to board another, or you are ignoramouses without the reasoniong ability to see your own fallacies.
As for Obama, welllllll this religious streak may be partially blamed on inherited traits if the following graphic(family safe) is to be believed,

“Show me proof that the faith based initiative is contrary to the constitution? Where are you sources?
I think your one of those racist that come here often to bash O'bama. Go back to reading MeinKapft magazine and bring your dirty style of fascism somewhere else.”

“didereaux you don't need to be an insulting arse just because your a Republican who hates Obama supporters ! I think we all know where the religious right and the rest of you right wing nuts got us ,,HELLO BUSH ,Hello Iraq ,Goodbye Economy !
I am a Obama supporter and I don't agree with his views on religion and government .I don't think religions should be tax exempt for one and I certainly believe in separation of church and state as written in our constitution ! I also disagree with Obama's vote on FISA which I hope he changes ! I still wouldn't vote for a Republican who would rather spend trillions of our dollars on a war for oil ,condones torture, spying on US citizens and tax the poor and middle class while they give tax breaks for the very rich !
Nope the Republican party is not my party because I am not a millionaire who are the only class of people who their party benefits !”

I'll Trade You the 2nd Amendment for the 4th

“there is one thing, and only one thing about this article that is notable...the utter lack of fundamental knowledge of our countries history and in particular our Constitution. The author would seemingly demolish one granted right, for a compromised second. He would be wise to actually study the issue, at least to the depth of the average middle schooler.
there is no excuse, nor forgiveness for anyone who suggests a willy-nilly dis-embowelment of the Constitution. Perhaps the author is more versed in such things in another country or culture?
Disgusting!”

“What the heck are you talking about??? He said that he would agree to the most liberal (not politically) reading of the second amendment, in return for the same from the conservative camp as regards the fourth! This means that BOTH of those amendments will be at the strongest that they could POSSIBLY be!”

“Middle schoolers know the correct usage of the word "countries" (sic).
Middle schoolers know you can't cherry-pick which rules to follow.”
