I give them an F and say fire the bastar#

I will never listen to what they say again, however, I never did anyway.

I don't expect you or others like you to care. I have never experienced that delusion. I am aware that you and those like you care when you are forced to submit, via personal action, law or some other mechanism forcing a response that would have you (collectively) weaseling for a way out of the predicament.

Individuals like you generally don't care until their is a concern about the bar of soap on the floor and hearing heavy breathing. I see no philosophical difference from you and the thieves on wall street, mortgage scammers, and insurance companies. You maintain proof of your fifth column affiliation; all your phoney conspiracy "interests" to the contrary.

The stink of the pile of s--t is more worthy than your yella livered cowardice. I see nothing bold, brave or daring about what you do. Granted, this is a public correspondent "conversation," and perhaps nothing is being done, that being said doesn't preclude the possibility that someone wanting to uphold the ideal of citizenship hasn't already acted from what you or I, Mitch and Michael and the rest have written.

A forum of ideas, may lead to subjectively defined "positive" action. Remember, you care enough to blog, even though it's B.S. because you are not sincere.

Yes, bad things do happen to good people.

that you tube 'trailer' was truly hilarious. Now that is a gift!

Those individuals abilities came from self determination and simple luck we like to call opportunity -- not from deliberate societal expectation demanding and stemming from a government of the people by the people and for the people. It is like a farmer expecting fields of wheat without sowing seeds. Their might be a few ungerminated seeds from the previous season; that seems to be what we are getting.

Are you suggesting Welch, Obama, and Volker are gifts given to a mankind unaware of the problems to which people like these are the solutions?

How Nietzschean.

course, maybe they are

For reasons that you info might understand; most people who live in this valley know who I am, and if they want to know me they can. Unlike your fright, I have the security to be able to write without fear.

Keep blogging in your burqaa!

I understand gaffes and foot in mouth disease. I might be mistaken, but Dan Rather is from Texas and older. Undoubtedly, there was time and opportunity for him to have conversations where various epithets and local "colorful" phrases were used with complete comfort. The person growing up in this type of environment has to be aware that using such language that they may have grown up with has been left behind as socially unacceptable -- but as he and Sen Reid are acutely aware (perhaps) blunders may occur.

The doctoring of Obama and Rice are different -- willful acts based on premeditation without regard to other peoples or society's consideration. I have a sense of revulsion when I consider that these individuals expect me to respect them.

I did not grow up with that type of language and don't find it hard to not use negative epithets. When I do use them it is deliberate. When I say the Tea Party has a lot of functionally literate red neck racists; it is deliberate. These "red neck" racists are just as proud of their station as any inner city ghetto thug -- consumed with ignorant pride.

Our political process is/has evolved to where it models the lowest scum cartoon denominator within a mosaic of demographics as the superman of the future, with the simpleton on par with Da Vinci and Jefferson. This country continues to drift away from the ruthless form of meritocracy necessary to buttress our government and the blend of social capitalism so necessary for the development of citizens. We have become complacent about the clones of Claudius as captains of industry, elected officials and civil servants. All to rarely we get Jack Welches and Obamas and Paul Volkers.

Instead we seem to be desperately enabling the next idiot into positions of power and influence, and it is they teaching through marketed culture bequeathing a poisonous intellectual laziness that has us at the precipice.

So we black face, blame people who see themselves as "white," "black," latino/hispanic, blame immigrants and every imaginable demographic as the demon destroying America instead of self development, education, creativity and work.

I agree with your standard, which is partially why I wonder where Michael's unapologetic exacerbation of the Joker's mask comes from. Perhaps from the same place that gave rise to Dan Rather's unfortunate "watermelon" reference last Sunday?

At what point does the proclivity of the left to point out racial insensitivity step over the line of concern and chin deep into the realm of bias? It is a poor model indeed that depends on the existence of something that all but the truly depraved detest.

Cheers,

My decorun is intact. Yours? Not so much. Perhaps a sign of a lost argument in the making.

Best, Con Man
