bio:I was born a poor black child. I remember the days, sittin' on the porch with my family, singin' and dancin' down in Mississippi... no, wait: that's the opening of The Jerk. More information is available at my website, but just barely.

Obama totally deserves to be pilloried and heaped with scorn. I mean, why doesn't he just flip the switch on the America-mo-tron to "maximum awesome" and instantly solve all of the nation's troubles? Jerk. Wait, what's that you say? There...

Commented on Teacher asks YA author if virtual visit can take place "with us being able to see you, but you not being able to see us"

Commented on Campaign to get UK government to apologise for hounding Alan Turing to his death

teapot commented on Hope is fading
Zyodei - we mostly agree on this issue, it's just we are arguing slightly different points and something got lost in translation: Capitalism, in the sense that it made America great, is simply economic freedom within a framework of honest laws. You seem to think I was having a go at capitalism, which is not true. Any economic system is likely to have expoitable loopholes - and the people who can, usually do end up greedily exploiting them. My tirade about Capitalism was more about user Navigator's blind and all-too-simple rhetoric. Furthermore I think you hit the nail on the...
lhughes commented on Hope is fading
He's a fraud. If you 30 or younger be afraid. You've either signed up for (or you are a victim) of a generation of low wages, unemployment, underemployment, spiraling health care costs, social security costs, property taxes (in blue states) and a crushing federal deficit. If you're not worried then you're probably a looter and on the public dole. Otherwise, do something to change this....

"To end the wars." I believed, like many others, that when Obama-the-candidate said he was for the war in Afghanistan and against the war in Iraq, that he was just saying that about Afghanistan only to win some Republican votes. I thought he was saying it with a wink, and that once in office, he'd say that he was actually for ending both the wars. So he did not fool me, but I fooled myself. My only remaining hope is that the only reason he's continuing to fund the war in Afghanistan is because he's afraid that if he stops...
zyodei commented on Hope is fading
With regards to "self-reliance" - again, I truly do believe that, on an individual level, this is what made America great. Not assuming that others will do stuff for us; and conversely, seeing that if someone is down there is no one but us to lend a helping hand. That's my definition of self-reliance, and on an individual level it has been one of the most powerful goods in the American character. Now, I certainly see where you're coming from - it's hard to crow about American self-reliance when we collectively rely on slave labor in China to make everything...
claybarham commented on Hope is fading
Here's why Obama and his crowd are losing Americans. Martha Stewart, in a recent TV interview, demonstrated why the elite hate ordinary people who stray into the public eye. She earns the title of Mean Martha with her demeaning responses to questions about Rachael Ray and Sarah Palin. She did us a great service, however, because she gave us a concrete example of the differences between the elite herding class and the herd, them and us. The few elite rule the many, as is tradition in the world outside of America. The elite herding class has moved into most all...
