Ditto. Proud retro.
Mr. Sperling, founder of the University of Phoenix, believes that conservative voters with traditional values are a millstone around America's neck, one that suppresses excellence in education, science, and the arts, and is bent on crushing "differences in ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation," along with "public education, childcare, and other services needed by working parents."
Memo to Mr. Sperling: That's going to be a hard sell considering how far advanced we are from the rest of the world medically, financially and militarily. It's not because we raised a lot of dummies in this country.
"Metro America." = predatory, do-nothing, degenerates.
. And since they comprise only 35% of the population and are heavily dependent on such "extraction" industries as oil, coal, gas, farming, low-wage manufacturing and military installations -- in Mr. Sperling's world, all non-essential economic activities -- Red State voters are irrelevant as a political voice.
Retro America feeds, clothes and provides Metro America, without Retro America, this pusbucket and his ilk would freeze and/or starve to death!
Proud millstone.
What this fool does not notice is that "metro" Americans, once you get to know them, really aren't nice people at all. And they know it themselves. Once they have kids they move to "retro" areas where they can actually afford a house and the kids will hopefully acquire some normal values.
The steady population shift from "metro" to "retro" America has been going on for fifty years.
Why is it, then, that so many people are moving from "blue" states to "red" ones if we hyperchurched, flat-earth bigots in need of Democratic enlightenment are a millstone around America's neck?
Right-were a millstone around the neck of productive America, but the founder of an online diploma mill is the voice of the future.
"Mr. Sperling, founder of the University of Phoenix, believes that conservative voters with traditional values are a millstone around America's neck, one that suppresses excellence in education, science, and the arts,..."
What in heck is the University of Phoenix?
Is that a degree mill? I wonder because this twit is the intellectual equivalent of Barbara Streisand.
Oh. Online diploma?
Gee. And I spent all that time sweating in lecture halls.
a push for "Atlas Shrugged"
LOL!
My truth is that I am a Retro American.
Waving the retro flag here in Pittsburgh PA.
Kinda reminds me of a bumper sticker my cattle rancher neighbor used to have on his truck: "Don't criticize ranchers with your mouth full!"
Why doesn't everybody enter the contest on that website, and if you win the Toyota Prius, sell it and donate the proceeds to W'04.
That should annoy them.
Man, these guys who view "flyover" country with superior disdain really, really chafe me! The arrogance is breathtaking.
