Cheers Star Blasts Liberal Elites: 'You Don't Want an Ivy Leaguer' in a Disaster
NewsBusters ^ | 2/23/15 | Scott Whitlock

Posted on 02/23/2015 9:09:51 AM PST by AT7Saluki

Your World anchor Neil Cavuto referenced Scott Walker and noted, "He didn't finish college. So, he doesn't have that prestigious degree. He could be up against an Ivy Leaguer like Hillary Clinton."

Ratzenberger zinged, "You know Ivy Leaguers and I know Ivy Leaguers. And I tell you, those are not the people whose houses you rush to after an earthquake." The actor mocked, "It's not like, 'he's got an MBA from Harvard. He'll know what to do!'" - See more at: http://newsbusters.org/blogs/scott-whitlock/2015/02/23/cheers-star-blasts-liberal-elites-you-dont-want-ivy-leaguer-disaster#sthash.qfTXoTQ1.dpuf

The William Buckley quote is really applicable here: “I’d rather be governed by the first 2,000 names in the Boston telephone directory than by the 2,000 members of the Harvard faculty.”

Thank you. I think we're going to need to review this idea in the coming months.

Liberal Poison Ivy Leaguers don’t have a particularly good record of governance.

This stuff always reminds me of the Phillip K Dick short story “The Variable man”.

Some 200 years in our future is a war between earth and the Alpha Centauri empire and both societies are fully dedicated to the war and evenly matched. Both societies are so highly specialized and bred for their specialties that they become incapable of doing even the simplest things outside their training and class.

The variable man was plucked out of time from right around the time of the first world war. He threw “modern” society into chaos because he could fix things in a world where he should have been completely useless.

The book is out of copywrite so you can grab it here if you’re interested.

It’s OK. Buckley went to Yale.

We’ve been on a Yale - Harvard merry-go-round since 1988. Time to try something else.

“Imagine a show with John Ratzenberger, Mike Rowe, and Larry the Cable Guy traveling around the country doing different jobs. Kind of like Top Gear for American jobs.”

Just have them do a talk show on MSNBC.

Prescient, given that the Ivy League was founded in 1954.

“You know Ivy Leaguers and I know Ivy Leaguers. And I tell you, those are not the people whose houses you rush to after an earthquake.”

I wrote many prepper articles on another website and a lady wrote in saying she would like to live next door to me. Hopefully, she read all those articles so she wouldn’t have to live next door, she would have the info. herself and save herself. That was the purpose of those articles.

I have a lot of education but that didn’t mean zip when putting together a survival plan and carrying it out. Common sense and what you need to stay alive is not in a university program.

We have many excellent preppers on this website and, to my knowledge, no one has brought up whether they finished grade school or any other school. :o)

Sam, Cliffy, Carla, and NORM were with the series from beginning to end. But did they all actually appear in each and every episode?

Kelsey Grammer (Fraiser Crane) is also conservative.

Do you happen to know where one can catch these movies? TBN? Hallmark Channel? DVD’s - ?
