faux_paws: janet smola's son and nepotism

i've been reading around about how janet smola's son doesn't have a teaching degree. i think people don't really understand what that really means. first off, i too am a recent graduate with an english degree. on top of that, i want to teach (maybe not as much as i did before, after reading these mildly hateful and groundless posts). i specifically chose to make my major "english literature" and not "education w/emphasis on language arts" and the reason is because it enabled me to learn more about my subject.

Q: What political party do you believe God favors?

baroombrawl: "Callin out" or "woffin"

I hear and see these two words (callin out) more and more!
Seems everyone is using them now instead of just stating their case for something and letting it go at that!

Fred Garvin: Wall Street Plummets on Obama Stimulus, Bank News

Fred Garvin: Why Obama’s new Tarp will fail to rescue the banks

Bonkers: Words thrown around today

an 09 collapse; retail closing fast; commercial buildings sitting empty; depression soon; possible revolution; worse than the 30s; need bailout for some foreclosures and credit cards; (banks can't operate if they can't collect); no manufacturing base to fall back on as we did in 30s; a global Katrina; our dollar is half of 08 prices---and gold is twice 08 prices---of course it is--it is based on the dollar.

Davids mom: Response to Muddle/Abortion

To have the ability to put ones feelings on the written page is a gift. Muddle has that gift. After reading his contribution regarding his feelings about the practice of abortion in this country – I certainly understand his political stance on the subject. There was one sentence that stood out – the sentence where he stated that he and his wife made the choice to have their child. I applaud that decision. I feel that decision was based on the values and principles that they learned from their home training – as well as the community support. I just don’t feel they made that decision based on a ‘law’ imposed by government.

MsEgalitarian: Irony

Could someone please tell me how on one corner of a neighborhood you have joe creepo/joe pervo getting arrested for performing indecent acts while his wife runs up and down the street drunk and then on the other corner you have decent hard working citizens trying to live there lives: meanwhile joe creepo uses the HOA of their neighborhood and the police department to harass the good folks? Is our police department so bureaucratic that they can't see between the lines? That twenty or some odd number of visits to the same house, with no charges might be a form of harassment by someone? Do they not also see that community dollars are being wasted on an unemployed busybody's meddling? And, puhleeze....Don't get me started on the irony of the home owners association in my neighborhood....all of these players are buddies!
