That's exactly the kind of thinking he's talking about...

Keep studying, punk...

Maybe one day you'll discover a new way to redistribute wealth, or legalize abortion...

No, it will be proof that Diebold electro-frauding works and that there's no such fucking thing as a "liberal media".

Elvis, we need all kinds. One of the things gw said in the most recent debate is the problem with poverty and low-paying minimum wage jobs. He said we need more education funding so Americans wouldn't have to take those jobs. So he was basically saying that we need to import labor from other countries to do our shit work. So that's what he thinks about that.

I feel that education and intelligence are two different things. It's just an unfortunate fact that less-educated people are much easier to lie to.

Diebold electro-frauding ??

Prepare for four more years of crap like this, folks...

And he does support increasing the minimum wage, as do alot of conservatives, but not to the point where it discourages skill advancement and education...

Could you please define "shit work" ??

He never said anything about not taking "those jobs"...

I feel that education and intelligence are two different things.

I agree, which one are you...

It's just an unfortunate fact that less-educated people are much easier to lie to.

This was true in the old days when the liberal media on the evening news was our only convenient source of information...

Today it's a new ballgame! Anyone who wants to inform themselves and has access to the internet can freely do so, and are doing so...

And yes FORD, the media is generally liberal, no matter what you say...

Moron? I've got a graduate degree and seriously considered going on to get my doctorate but then realized that I wanted to do something with my life. SO I went out and got a job and actually work to make the world a better place, rather than spewing nonsensical theory to anyone that is forced to pay attention to it.

Too-shay...

Then why don't you use it to think instead of spouting bullshit party lines?

[McCarrens]

Well, me being a reporter and all, I work pretty hard to not spout party lines all the time. I come here to let off steam and bitch about the liberal media and what it is doing to this country.

Why don't you ask gw to define shit work? Wasn't it him and his buddies in washington that decided to re-define "full employment" to make their employment reports look better?

[ELVIS]

It was your term, now please define it...

[JimmytheWurm]

Don't be stupid

Asking for a definition of "Shit Jobs?" I live near Kennett Square, "the mushroom capital of the world," and the only people I know of who have to shovel shit and work in the mushroom houses are Mexican. About %10 speak english and if it were up to Bush he would relocate our entire country to somewhere like Iraq where the American people can get a boost on the backs of hard working foreigners who have no other choice. Why doesn't he just reinstate slavery?

Furthermore..."It's just an unfortunate fact that less-educated people are much easier to lie to."

"This was true in the old days when the liberal media on the evening news was our only convenient source of information...

If anyone can go online and educate themselves, why is our president an idiot?
Why do I meet stupid people who care only for themselves every day?
The internet disperses as much nonsensical bullshit as any politician that has ever lived. You need to be intelligent and educated to begin with if you want to seperate fact from fiction. Unless you are just online to join the cult that believes that Earth was populated by aliens.

What are we talking about here? Are we saying that the intellectuals in this country are idiots? This statement is idiotic. And if you think that intellectuals talk down to you then you need to educate yourself so you can speak on their level, otherwise, shut up and listen! If you don't understand or are frustrated by what people say, then you are missing the point and need to keep quiet until you understand what is going on.

Are we comparing our scholars to the Bush Administration? There is no comparison. We have a two-party system that forces us to vote for one sleazy politician over another, if it were up to me, MENSA would be running our government.

Hey, she's an actress, so she's as qualified as Reagan was.

And if she crossed her legs in press conferences, it would be far more entertaining than anything Junior ever did.
