Carl liked Giuliani and Romney. No wonder.
Ask any Freeper that you encounter pushing this horsecrap to defend the string of logical assumptions that they are making.
I happen to know that a teacher's child is exposed to all manner of extra educational material - because my mother was a teacher.
We had stacks of textbooks and workbooks all over the house. We had maps and books and more books. We were STEEPED in education, and I only had one parent who was a teacher.
Two parent-teachers would inundate you with knowledge.
This is a vile and evil lie.
“Incredibly absurd” is correct.
I think you nailed it. They are trying to save what is left of their backsides. McCain never did take the gloves off, really.
Palin had to be the attack dog, and they had her on a tight leash. I understand if you go too far, you risk inciting someone on the fringe to violence, but McCain never played the Odinga card or the Ayers right bower; only Hannity did that. And whine, whine on the left, too many negative ads. How negative was the MSM towards Palin? Much worse and their sycophants.
What finally got out there about there about Ayers, unbelieveable how the left yawned over it.
McCain has no one to blame but himself. He truly suffered for the country, but couldn't wow the crowds like Sarah could. I doubt Romney could have overcome being a Mormon (wasn't a problem with me), I never heard of Pawlenty, she was the best pick and, I guess, an easy target.
Maybe Alaska will come to its senses and secede lol. Doesn't sound like such a bad idea to me. The one who started the party evidently got murdered after trying to buy plastic explosives (can't really condone that for sure), but if they are pro-life (don't say on their website), anybody can contribute to them whether they live in Alaska or not.
I'm not sure seceding is warranted or a good idea, but it wouldn't hurt to send a message. I'll hold off on that, just kicking it around.
Is Africa a continent?
I know but I don’t have to go that far. On its very face it is absolutely absurd. I can barely bring myself to reply to anyone who says they believe it. Primarily because that makes me very suspicious of where they are coming from.
Easy. Guns beat golf clubs any day.
They need to have their noses rubbed in the raw scheisse of their "logic". So have at it. ;-)
LOL There is a real question in my mind that anyone who honestly believes this kind of nonsense can be affected by logic and reason.
How stupid does one have to be to believe this??
1. Sarah Palin was raised by TWO school teachers.
2. Sarah Palin was a standout student in elementary and high school.
3. Sarah Palin went to 5 different colleges and has a 4 year degree.
4. Sarah Palin was a business owner, a mayor and a governor.
5. And finally Sarah Palin is a mom. She has one child graduated from high school, one kid about to graduate and three more that are winding their way through the school system. If you're a parent who is even remotely interested in your kids education you would think that the fact that Africa is a continent would have come up at some point.

As an educator myself, I am very aware of this.
Secession is the coward’s way out. If we believe in the Constitution and all those things that have made this country great we must fight for it.
Reality: Americans have had it pretty easy since WWII. No serious attack on our country. And no need to be part of the fight against communism and Islamo Terror. It is true that a small per cent of the population have sent sons, daughters and spouses to war. And too many of these families have lost loved ones.
But by and large the average American has just gone about his/her life with little or no concern at all for any of that.
Up to now the only threat to America was external. The election of the Marxist Obama to the Presidency makes this fight internal. Americans who want their country back will not be able to sit on the sidelines while soldiers do the fighting. It will be interesting to see if they have the will to fight and win their country back.
I've got things in my life to deal with. Then maybe I can see more clearly where to go from here. I don't know how to respond to the rest of what you wrote because I don't see it all in such simple terms. The pen is mightier than the sword. Well, that sure works against us. Aux arms, citoyens? Not bloody likely and foolhardy unless in self defense when there is no other choice.
People are already fighting back economically which may be the best way to go for now but may further impact the downturn of the economy.
