The reality is that being academically educated has nothing to do with being able to competently run anything, in fact, most of the time it is an impediment. The best leaders I have known rarely had much education. I may be well educated but I would never expect anyone to expect me to lead, it simply is not within me to lead. When you get to know somebody who is brilliant but a failure it is exasperating because it is difficult to see how someone so smart could so often fail, yet smart failures are very common. The best leaders never flaunt their educations because they want their followers to identify with them, thus Brook's "educated class" is by definition a set of poor leaders. So, YES, I am anti-intellectual because I see most "intellectualism" as being the mark of a failure. So what you're saying is that you'll disagree with Obama about anything and everything, even before you know what it is? Yep, everything Obama bad, everything Republican good. Thanks for proving my point! Reading problem? I don't see the words 'Obama', 'Republican', 'good', or 'bad' anywhere in the post above yours. Do you? You've done NOTHING here but spread political bull****, lies, and distortions for months.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - **** off, asshole. I'm done with your bull****. You've completely gone haywire and can't even think straight. I suggest you drive up to herring's house and straighten him out. I can recommend a couple of good restaurants in his immediate area. I'd pay $1000 for a picture of Herring covered in Aunt Jemima syrup and Uncle Ben's rice. You sound as kinky as Harry and myself. nice to see you join the club. Next time we meet in Halifax, maybe you can "join' us. Are you sure you want that. You don't want anyone coming between you and harry, do you? Wouldn't be me, though. I can't come at all. This is too funny. the guy that's been crying about people spoofing him is getting into the act. Get rid of your apple if you want to fool anyone. That and the 'eternal-september' stuff. No one ever said he was too bright, except Donnie, and maybe the plum. Oh no, she was talking about herself. They left you outside in the cold. |
