They call themselves "progressive" but they haven't changed a thing in thirty years. The same crap over and over.

She must be on Karl Rove's payroll.
"This is what happens when you make one too many trips to Starbucks before sitting down to write."
Sorry to disagree, but no amount of Starbucks could induce such an altered state. Have you considered the article may have been the result of too much bong? Too many bong hits is well known to induce a sense of wisdom while actually creating intellectual malfunction.
"The way Clintoon "cast his policies" was one of the main reasons why he failed as a president."
Absolutely. Dickie Morris just polished clinton's innate ability to stand on all sides of an issue. Something Kerry never was able to do...it might have been interesting if Kerry had hired Morris into whoring for him...
Is it now forever impossible to talk about values with those with whom we disagree without anger and loud voices and politicizing? Even though I know I could never abandon my principles, I'm saddened at the prospect of perpetual strife and discord. Maybe we could somehow create a forum people would agree to discuss issues with civility or some kind of structure that would optimize creativity and critical thought and de emphasize criticism, am I dreaming?
Didn't he write a book about masturbation?
How can you win someone over when you call them stupid and/or treat them as though they are?

You can't. Ask Alan Keyes.
Amen!
It was a actually a short essay. But Rousseau was far from being alone in the 1700's, Ben Franklin wrote teatise on farting that was wildly popular in Europe.
The peculiar part of the deal is that the humor which was fashionable in the Salons of people that are now required reading in every US college, would be denounced these days, ala Beavis and Butthead, South Park, et al.
The liberals believe that anyone who doesn't believe the same way as they do is stupid. They also project their characteristics onto others. They can't believe they were bested by stupid "W".
"That's what happened to Jimmy Carterhe asked Americans to take responsibility for their profligate ways, and promptly lost to Ronald Reagan, who told them once again that they could do anything they wanted."
Uh, not exactly. President Reagan said we could ACCOMPLISH anything we wanted to.
She cannot even cite a quote without lying.
She has to be a Democrat.
Also you do not see her using any of her money to help the less fortunate.
And these arrogant @ssholes wonder why they can't win an election.
Their arrogance is beyond belief and reality.
Right Arm!
We love the stupid bastards-we just hate their stupidity.
Proregressives, better identifies them.
I'm a proud Ph.D. bearing ignoramus. The problem with so many liberals is that they aren't as smart as they think, but they have bought into this notion that the left represents intellectually sophisticated ideas. They are not even smart enough to figure out that what they see as highly intellectual is actually hooey. Example: any utterance of Noam Chomsky. They embrace the hooey because they think it's so smart, and they so want to appear smarter than they are. They must have an inferiority complex, maybe brought on by sitting next to people like me in high school, people who grasp an idea the first time they hear it and never study (at least in high school).
The rest of this piece pretty much proves my point. Pseudo-intellectualism masking lack of critical thinking skills, used to promote the writer's own personal opinions.
Please, Lord, keep the leftazoids so willfully blind!
