This convoluted mess has now reached the laughable point when your have a “Phoney Indian” like Elizabeth Warren taking advantage of race that she has no proof of for personal advancement. Did someone with legit credentials lose out to this fraud?

Say DT, are you going to address the latest trio of GOP thought:

1. Slavery was a blessing in disguise
2. Parents have the biblical right to off their kids
3. Evolution comes from the pit of hell

Maybe I just missed that post

Dilemma: Our ideals are for freedom, progress and opportunity… but our society isn’t structured so in reality. A disadvantaged youth provided with some avenues of escape by LBJ’s Great Society have (or are becoming) memories.

America is still race driven. I’m seeing my nation as not being able to focus on equality. What would it take to blend in our opinions to be able to choose the best Americans from the shirkers? 2012 can’t seem to be able to do it. Are we still unable to pick out the most ideal students to take to a new level of academics? In my lifetime, we did have a brilliant writer who tried to suggest that all American children can be introduced to an ideal set of standards only to be castigated as some kind of enemy of American values. Ayn Rand was an Atheist therefore the enemy of everything.

We don’t seem to want our children to excel academically and to simply live the same lives of the parents. Increases in Science, in particular, and academics, in general, has made incredible increases in teaching the subjects and many Americans have zero interest in these new things. Assuming that the status quo is better for the kids is a false assumption as it changes the focus from academics to the bible.

Gov.. Romney is a good example of religion over taking basic academics and could be a danger to all Americans. If he wins, we had better get our sons and grand sons prepared to go to war or simply move to another nation. He will bomb Tehran as an opening act to get us all prepared for another 12 years of war in the Middle East. If I were younger, I would be buying a property in Costa Rica or somewhere near or in the Central American nations.

My age group has donated too many of our family members to fight for whatever the President desires. Our president is elected by the American people who clearly want wars. Wars mean jobs?

So we can start by having the Supreme Court be appointed in a more equal choice of judges. A Romney Supreme Court will focus on more wars for Jesus Christ. This has never worked for any nation/
