A good formal education is an indicator for many of intellectual
curiosity. It is much more than "merely a process."

While no one can deny the intellectual and worldly success of the
self-taught in many fields, the fact is that a college degree is at the
very least a rough indicator that its "owner" had enough self-discipline
to stick with a course of study, and satisfy the intellectual
requirements and standards for graduation.

At its best, a good formal liberal arts education forces you to think
way outside the box, and exposes you to ideas and people whose
backgrounds and thoughts are very different from yours.
Bull****. There has emerged a culture within the academic system in
which only one set of liberal or progressive ideas is believed and
discussed.
Awwwww....Tom's ideology is going down the toilet, where, of course, it
belongs. You righties are getting stranger and stranger..."Black Man in
the White House" is really driving you over the edge.


A black man in the White House is meaningless to a guy who won a court
case to adopt a homeless state orphan who was black. A black Marine's
blood runs in my veins and saved my life. I don't see color - I never
have, I never will. It's only "progressives" like you who see color
in humanity - ordinary people like me live the ideal of "not be judged
by the color of their skin but by the content of their character".

You owe me an apology.


Ok:

Tom's ideology is going down the toilet, where, of course, it belongs.
You righties are getting stranger and stranger. "Black Man in the White
House" is really driving all of you righties *except Tom* over the edge.

Better?


No.

And that's the last time you will ever engage me in a discussion on
anything.

I had a feeling there was a lot more to it than my bundling you in with
the rest of the "We hate the president because he's black" crowd. Well,
Tom...it's my belief your (meaning the GOP, of course) right-wing
ideology is going down the toilet, where it belongs, and you righties
are getting stranger and stranger.

The proof of *that* is apparent every day on the news.
