Andy9o8 2 #7 April 24, 2015 It's like Bill Rehm (rehmwa) & I were discussing in another thread a couple days ago. College kids are finally astute enough to identify wrongs and injustices - and they treat every realization as though it's ephiphanous (since it's all so new to them), but they're still too inexperienced and immature to take the time to analyze a solution or, in cases like this, to dig deeply enough to separate the pawns from the policymakers. And so they act like idiots. Then they have kids of their own who they see acting like idiots, and the final piece of the puzzle falls in place.

A perfect example that everything wrong with mankind is Pres. Obama's fault. Yea, sure, Jerry Baumchen PS) And there are a fair number of issues that I strongly disagree with Pres. Obama on.

Your inability to ascertain the difference between what is a liberal to you and your ilk and just someone not marching to your very special drum is what has polarized this country to the point of paralysis.
