Are you kidding me? Do you think that Senator Obama wants to end Vietnam?

Get real..and please join us in the 21st century. We have one of the most corrupt governments in history and you’re focusing on the fact that Professor Ayers and Senator Obama know live in the same neighborhood – even though Ayres despicable acts took place when Obama was freakin 6 years old!!!!

The issue stems from a state version of the federal Born Alive Infant Protection Act, which proposed that any “viable” fetus surviving a late-term abortion receive sustaining medical care. Obama opposed the measure not because he disagreed with overarching purpose, but because of objectionable side-provisions such as a failure to immunize doctors from legal prosecution.

It would really elevate the level of political discourse if everyone would stop trying to make points by pointing out that a certain candidate opposed a popular piece of legislation even though they know the opposition was based upon “side provisions.”

But the biggest concern of the American people is the economy. Go figure….

Literally the dumbest post EVER.

That’s just because the Finns can’t go outside. The air is too polluted with umlauts.

Just asking.

Ha! ;-)

Gotta run, enjoyed our conversation. See ya!

You know, only a child or a petty fool would link to a picture like you do. Which are ya? You obviously don’t want to be taken seriously.

I won’t be responding to your inane posts anymore so type away to the wind fool.

You could redeme yourself if you would explain why republicans don’t support our troops after putting them in harms way, oh yeah, you’re more concerned about Iraqi’s…..nice.

PS. Finnish public schools have no sports. Zero. Considered a distraction from the task of learning.

There ya go Frosty. More money is spent on sports than on education here. The football players are what school is all about. Sad and destructive. See columbine, etc.

btw, your husband sounds like he might be intelligent and handsome. Keep your fingers crossed for us though.

Why are you against a free Iraq?

You sound like my husband. I hope you are both right. Fingers crossed! :)

Freedom Rebel:

Good morning to you! :)

Yes, those are inspiring stories. Perhaps we could take a cue from the Finnish school system, consistently rated one of the best in the world.

Over there it is very difficult to become a teacher. Their university system to become a teacher is very tough and so if one becomes a teacher, it’s known that they are the best of the best. It is a highly regarded profession, despite not paying extraordinarily well, and thus schools routinely employ the most dedicated, most educated, highest achieving people around.

No, I’m sorry you can’t comprehend a sentence when you read it. As I suggested before, try taking a class.

None of your lies or distortions came from TP. They come from right wing attack sites and they are full of distortions and the few facts in them are distored to your advantage.

That kinda makes you the devil doesn’t it?

Why don’t republicans support our troops?

McCain may own one or more himself or with his wife, while other condominiums may be owned by a Family Trust or his wife. It’s probably best that he check the property records before giving a potentially wrong answer.

Hey, good_golly4…here’s a question for you: How many sisters does Cindy McCain have?

Do you think she should’ve checked the records first to remember that she’s got two half-sisters before lying and claiming she was an only child?

I point my finger accusingly in your direction and dub thee “TROLL.” Now go away back to your bridge and wait for your goats while the adults who actually read the news have a serious discussion.

I believe we have the highest percentage of child poverty among first world nations and the stingiest social safety net among same.

I think it’s a big part of the many ills that afflict our society, including problems in the schools.

Good Morning Frosty Cupcake :)

Very true. Also their lack of a positive role model in their lives. We see time and tme again how one person can make a huge difference in the life of a childor teenager.

My examples are the Ron Clark story (Ron Clark is an American teacher who has worked with disadvantaged students in rural North Carolina and Harlem, New York City. He is known for his books and multiple teaching awards.) Lou Ann Johnson’s wonderful story that prompted the movie Dangerous Minds. (Determined to have them trust and respect her, she quickly changes her presentation, wearing leather jackets, teaching karate to her students and cursing in the classroom. Creating her own curriculum for her “mentally challenged” and extremely antagonistic class, she starts having them read poetry, using Bob Dylan lyrics to teach symbolism. Johnson rewards her students for their hard work by giving them candy bars to say good job, toy prizes and trip to a boardwalk theme park.)

All of those kids and teenagers had been written off by the school and the administration as uneducatable, losers for life. It is amazing how wrong they all were, time, a little patience, creative thinking, & looking at life through their eyes made all the difference in the world. These children and teenagers went out to do great things with their lives.

I’m not saying it has to be a teacher, just sayin’ look at what a difference one person made in their lives. Truly amazing people that worked the problem and found solutions.

List all the things that Chimpy McFlightsuit has done to justify the laughable GOP claims of “family values , compassion , honesty and integrity” , dipshit.

BTW

Ms Clinton is about as “left” as you are honest and intelligent…………..

Are you implying that the award winning Think Progresses content is no more creditable than a Superman Comic Book? Strong accusations coming from a Bleeding Heart.
