The right hate education and the educated.
Reality has a left wing bias.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

I’m just saying, you’re all about liberals not calling out the discretions from their own side.  I think you should take your own advice once in a while.  And, quit it with the “poor me”, shtick.  After all the shit slinging you do around here about us being sensitive, whining, crying snowflakes, how far do you think that’s going to get you?

Yes, yesI know Tiz, it was metaphorical. But how many people have said these statements as that and people take them literally. I can think of quiet a few, some of them I call friends, which I'm certain a lot of us have friends like that let's be real. I'm not saying censor your words but rather be careful what you say as this is the american public at large in which a good chunk aren't known for their smarts or even having a brain. to understand the word Metaphorical.
