People like Fineman are no different from a group of Deadheads in the predictability of what they like, think, do, and believe. They are all members of the “Look at me I'm so sophisticated” club. Ironically, truly self-determining creative people don't generally follow a predictable blueprint in life the way that the Finemans of the world do.

That they think they are thoughtful and progressive’ just adds to the reality of how pathetically shallow and uninformed they truly are. These are the kind of people who buy Stilton and brie, know the differences between a Brunello and a Cabernet, have seen La Boheme at the Met, have traveled in Europe, think Carl Marx was a smart man with a nice vision, and generally think that one can only be smart and educated if one goes to the right schools and comes away thinking the same way they do.

The truth is that people like Fineman are the ones who hate and judge unfairly. It is they who need to be educated and who need to get out of their artificial self-supporting small worlds and expand their minds.

As one who appreciates both Stilton and Brie, and knows the difference between a Brunello and a Cabernet...but graduated from Okie State and also prefers a red beer more than Karl Marx...I wish to lodge a complaint with the NRFRC (National Respect for Rednecks Commission).

I love it! I actually think that part of the problem with American politics is that we have too many people who went to the same east coast universities. Academic inbreeding with the same consequences as other types of inbreeding..

That’s a good opinion, pieceofthepuzzle, and I respect it.

Semper Fi, buddy.

I rather have enjoyed cock fighting in Jamaica, West Africa, Puerto Rico, Dom Rep, Haiti, Colombia and Brasil

doesn’t bother anymore than ringing a chickens neck...which I have done

I also like bull fighting...if done well

I do not like dog fighting though I own those type dogs ...larger version and as a boy before leash laws I do admit we were entertained watching big male dogs just go at it till someone separated them with water or a fire extinguisher or bb guns etc

but now...people are more pure and noble...and I’m a relic

only a few states have cock fighting..Arizona and Kentucky..not sure who else?

Shall we say that graduates of land grant universities are in no way responsible for the fix we're in.

But graduates of Ivy League schools seem to be intimately involved...

I bet Fineman likes a different kind of cockfighting.
