Look, it may have been a valid post, but it's also funny as hell. You'll learn to check your preview for spelling and errors in grammar. I still slip up sometimes. Having a headline like this is too big a temptation for cheese comments, all your ____ belong to us comments, and the average Holy Grail fan. And the whooping llamas.

Most of the attacks are because the answer to your question is so obvious, i.e., allowing socialists to take over our institutions, media etc., that most posters didn't even want to deal with answering you so they attacked your spelling. Your other choice would have been zippo responses.

Besides, you should be glad that people call you on it. This demonstrates that language, like DNA, has mechanisms in place to correct misreadings and, in this way, ensure some measure of continuity rather than the chaos of unbridled mutation.

Damb!! Where can I learn to talk like that????

"Okay, I'm 24 years old. I graduated summa cum laude from Georgia State University. However, it's worthless, I presume? It doesn't mean anything that I practically spent all of my time reading in the University library."

I hope that I step on no more tobes when I bring up a new subject here...

Does anyone else find it interesting that sometimes a young'un graduates from college thinking no one else has ever gone that route...neither has another ever worked so hard or learned so darned MUCH???

I wish---just as a case study---f.f. up there would let me know:

Are you the first in your family to graduate?

I don't think I ask this with malace...I'm just curious as to what leads certain graduates to this concept of themselves...?????

Help an old woman understand???????

You'll find the answers to all your questions in George Lukacs, "The Process of Democritization." It will tell you all you need to know about the PC culture!

Last Trekkie I saw was over in a corner playing with his Tribble.

I'm sorry to say that WTC 9/11 and probable future incidents will be the only means by which the sheeple will be awakened from their 40-year slumber.

But I'm afraid we have further blows to endure before that happens.
