There are plenty of "educated people who don't understand a budget. For example, MadRyan, Obama, and Congress


Bullshit...

Isaac Asimov was talking about folks like you when he uttered this quote...



the only way my statement is bullshit is if we are conversing in two different languages.... or Websters and Oxford changed the definitions of the words overnight...

madryan, if you want to encourage intellectual discussion you need to stop starting your arguments with "Bullshit". :thu:

Avoid childish put-downs like telling people to go take a civics or a sociology class. :cop: :nono:

Treat everyone with respect whether they are a garbageman or the president of Harvard. It's called class. :usa:


I'm running a fever and got 2 hours of sleep. I don't feel like being civil lol...

Besides... I'm really tired of the crowd that blames Obama for everything. I really don't like the guy, but it's as bad as the blame Bush for everything crowd. They're what's wrong with this country IMO. They don't understand how government works. They keep voting for the same morons who actually draft the legislation, and they don't understand the real power structure in DC. Low information voters on both sides make my teeth ache.

Thanks man... My kid does this to me once a year or so. Brings some nasty bug home from that Petri dish they call Preschool that just knocks the crap out of me. I have a midterm this week and tons of stuff to do and I'm sick as hell.

Good times...
