I think assuming that their perfect world would be one in which everyone is equal, even if it's because the undesirables no longer exist, is kinda unlikely. They have to have someone to feel superior to.

There are no fans of Sarah here who fit that “cultist” bill.

Sure there are; they're the ones who cannot conceive of any flaw in her and think that someone who can [and does] see them as attacking her.

In short, I find her cult of personality people to be far more off-putting than she herself is.
I have no use at all for people who are unwilling and unable to even attempt to hold to what they claim are their principals… this is, at its root, why I have begun to loathe the Republican party (they make no stand for government accountability, fiscal responsibility, abolishing current gun control laws, abolishing abortion, repealing the ACA, and so on) and why the pro-Romney argument that we could/would "hold his feet to the fire" if he was elected was so laughable.

Now, I will gladly and quickly admit that she's far better a candidate than a lot of candidates.
Conversely, I do have severe misgivings of one who defends John McCain's indefensible behavior; and as she has done so [repeatedly] I am not convinced that she would, on the national level, be a good candidate.

Or are you, too, unable to accept that others have valid perceptions and opinions which differ from yours?

You posted a message from Jim Robinson, where he says:

She may very well support McCain out of loyalty and I have no problem with that.

It is perfectly fine with me that he holds his own opinion and valuation — we disagree in that I do find fault with being loyal to McCain and defending him from e.g. Arizona's censure (IMO that was, and is, a matter between McCain and his constituents & Pailin's willingness to defend him therein perhaps shows that Palin has more loyalty toward McCain than the American-system… perhaps even the Constitution itself as one point of contention was the government's domestic spying and McCain's part therein).

Note that I am not saying she's a bad candidate, or that she is indeed more loyal to McCain than the Constitution, just that the possibility exists, especially when she has never stood against him on anything. [Granted I do not remember anything that, as a Constitutional issue, they were involved in together (like McCain-Feingold) where she would so be tested, as she was a governor and he was/is a senator from another state and thence they did not have a lot of overlap in their official capacity.]

Onyx, I have not admitted to being an anti-Palin troll — I have admitted to sometimes trolling (to do otherwise would be a lie), and I have expressed that I find the Cult of Personality supporters of a politician to be off-putting (whether they be pro-Palin or pro-Obama); I have also expressed that I find supporting and defending McCain to be worthy of questioning one's "conservative" credentials.

Ansel has taken it upon himself to "connect the dots" and say that the above qualifies me as anti-Palin… but then Ansel is also the sort who denies that supporting the War on Drugs and Constitutialism are mutually exclusive philosophies despite much evidence to the contrary (and will gladly accuse one who opposes the War on Drugs on constitutional grounds as being pro-drug).

I've been long afraid that my dad is a Freeper. Today my wife and I went to see him and my mom. I used his laptop to look something up on Amazon for him, but when he looked away I opened a new tab and typed "free" and nothing popped up to auto complete.

My dad is very right wing. He has a Phil Robertson Facebook avatar and you constantly have to be aware of what you say around him. I told him I listened to podcasts once and he went on a rant about how podcasts are a gateway to liberal indoctrination, for example. But, he isn't a Freeper and that makes me happy.

Million jars of peanut butter dumped in New Mexico

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Nearly a million jars of peanut butter were dumped at a New Mexico landfill this week to expedite the sale of a bankrupt peanut-processing plant that was at the heart of a 2012 salmonella outbreak and nationwide recall.

Bankruptcy trustee Clarke Coll said he had no other choice after Costco Wholesale refused to take shipment of the Sunland Inc. product and declined requests to let it be donated to food banks or repackaged or sold to brokers who provide food to institutions like prisons.

They're used to it.

The whole article had someone from a food bank lamenting the disposal; the stuff wasn't being disposed of because it was actually suspected of being contaminated as such, but because the company was shutting down due to a contamination incident which, as far as the article says, may not have affected the peanut butter being disposed of; but which would still open them up for litigation.

Ah, ok then. Still seems like the logic to freep is "You filthy socialists shouldn't be giving food to the poor, unless there's a chance for it to be unfit for human consumption, in which case you filthy socialists aren't respecting christian charity by not giving it to the poor.

American Jews need to understand a concept that can be expressed the four little words:

It. Can. Happen. Here.

On one hand I’m horrified at the growing anti-semetism, particularly on college campuses (I saw some in undergrad back in the 1990s). On the other hand I have the sober realization that most American Jews have been, if not outright enablers of this sort of thing at least blissfully ignorant of it.

The truth is that Christians have been doing most of the heavy lifting for the past couple decades when it comes to support for Israel while the Jewish community has been able to play free rider and toe the Liberal line. But the truth is that the first, best and most effective advocates for Israel and against anti semetism are ... Jews. Time for them to get off the bench and into the game.

I consider this to be great news, and I mean it with all my heart. By and large a lot of Jewish people in the US and Europe support fascist/socialist governments and institutions. So it is only right that these same people experience the consequences for their misguided support of these beliefs. I know, I know, not all Jews or Catholics or Christians support these fascists but a lot do, and sad to say that the one’s who don’t also feel the brunt of this crap too.

But the one’s who seemed so surprised are the one’s who are also leftists, what did they think that “finely” fascists and Muslims were going to like them.

Hell, Hitler had 2-3 NAZI SS divisions in the Balkins assigned to the “Final Solution”. And yes it can and just may happen here. But they will scream for conservatives to save their butts before then.

The shooter needs to to file a counter suit naming the family and the states. He needs to present evidence of what a horrible human dogpile the deceased was. He also needs to prove what horrible parents the dogpile had growing up. He needs to seek attorneys fees and damages for pain and suffering. He needs to sue the state for not taking better care of its dependents.

Here in Ga, a shoplifter was banned from Walmart and showed up to shoplift some more. She was recognized and chased by someone in law enforcement. Not remembering all the details but she got in her car with her shoplifting buddies and I think drove toward the law enforcement officer. He ended up clinging to her door and she was driving erratically. He shot her and killed her. Her ‘friends’ said instead of shooting her, he should have shot in the air ‘to scare her’ and she would have stopped.

Idiots.

The lawsuit one is particularly hilarious because one of the things that they really pound into your head when you're getting your concealed-carry license is that if you shoot someone, you're almost certainly going to be sued for wrongful death. The only case that I can think of where the family didn't sue was an incident where a bouncer at a bar had a knife pulled on him, to which he responded by pulling his gun and telling the guy to back off and then ran around the entire building trying to get away while getting jabbed in the back before he finally shot the guy in the head in front of a dozen witnesses. Poor guy was really broken up about it, crying about how the guy's mother was going to feel the whole time that I was slapping bandages all over his back on the way to the hospital.

I don't see a lot of movies but I went to the theater recently. I was pretty surprised to see a trailer for a Noah movie, and even more surprised to see posters all over the place for a Jesus movie and some other movie called God's Not Dead. Seeing that Freepers are actually upset about at least one of these movies is a pretty big surprise.

A Teacher's Take on Common Core (Vanity)
Posted on 3/31/2014 8:27:20 AM by A_perfect_lady

I have been a Freeper for 12 years and a teacher for 10. I work in Los Angeles, in a public school, and I teach English. I want to say something about Common Core, although my observations will be strictly limited to my particular domain: English. I cannot comment on the Math portion.

I will begin bluntly: I do not understand the conservative outcry about Common Core. Perhaps it’s only because I teach in California, but to me it is an improvement, at least in some ways. If you aren’t a teacher (and most conservatives aren’t, which is a pity) you don’t realize what California standards were like. Oh, the goals themselves weren’t particularly remarkable… in the end, the goals are always the same for English, no matter how they word them: children should be able to summarize, identify, describe, explain, compare, analyze, evaluate, and synthesize the plot, characters, setting, theme, mood, tone… same stuff they’ve done for years.

What was noxious about California standards was their pressure to conform to a liberal reading list. The text books they issued looked as if someone had gone down a checklist with authors arranged by skin color and nationality. I could almost hear the editor muttering to himself, “We need an Indonesian.” Very few authors were classic writers noted for their skill. They seemed to think one short story by Hemingway, one by Poe, and one by Bradbury was sufficient to represent the Dead White Males of the Pre-enlightenment Era (that’s sarcasm, for those of you in Rio Linda). The ESL textbooks were even more pointed: children were directed to read essays on how FDR saved America, how nuclear power is bad, bad, bad, how the 2nd amendment is contingent upon government permission(!), how migrant workers are victimized by pesticides… yes, it was cheery stuff.

Now comes Common Core, and one of the first things they addressed in the training was this: children raised on the simplistic language of modern-day PC authors cannot comprehend anything else, and did horribly on the periodic assessments. The periodic assessments, created by people who apparently hadn’t gotten the memo, had included excerpts from The Odyssey, Anne of Green Gables, Call of the Wild, David Copperfield… could a child raised on the toothless prose of Gary Soto and bell hooks even comprehend the long, intricate sentences that were common to writers many years ago? No, they couldn’t. Imagine that.

So this is what the Common Core material suggests: classic writers. Documents written by the Founding Fathers. Greek mythology. Mark Twain. Louisa May Alcott. Yes, really. Common Core steps away from guiding the teacher’s curriculum along the PC lines of “authors of color” and “writers who champion social justice” and actually recommends classics, but makes no effort to control what the teacher chooses. This, my Friends, can only be an improvement, because liberals were in charge of our books for too many years. Any choices by teachers will swing to the right because frankly, they were so far to the left that there was no way to go further unless you have 7th graders reading Andrea Dworkin, and teachers with that attitude would have already been doing it.

I don’t expect a wave of support… my sad experience is that many Freepers hate teachers with such a livid passion that I wonder about them. But I wanted to say this: Common Core is much less prohibitive in English than the previous standards. Again, I cannot speak to the mathematics, the science, the history… but I can tell you that in English, it’s an improvement, for the reasons I have given above. Okay, flame away.

Yeah? Let me know when the system adopts phonics again to teach speaking English; which is of course — a PHONETIC language.

While I would applaud any improvement in our schools, I am suspicious of any program that doesn’t teach the way kids were taught back when the USA was number one in the world in reading comprehension and writing, not to mention math and science. Today, we rank below freakin’ Zimbabwe in all international standards.

There was nothing wrong with teaching rote memorization for math, phonics and writing comprehension for English and all the other “old fashioned” techniques. They actually WORKED! But somewhere along the line, the unions and their puppets (teachers) decided that we should bring the smart kids down to the level of under-performing students and that parents should have little say in their children’s education.

Now, it’s been downhill all the way. I interviewed a new college graduate last week for a job. The application was filled with spelling errors and the kid couldn’t speak good English.

I’m a senior in a CA high school. The public school system is awful. For example, I had to ask my history/government teacher why exactly she keeps referring to the US as a democracy. She made something up about it being “easier” to do so. I have to constantly listen to communistic “solutions” for fixing the country, along with constant whining about “rich” people not giving poor people money. While I have never excelled in math,I did fairly decently until I moved to CA. The explanations are nigh impossible for me to grasp. I can say that I’ve never had a problem with my English courses, but perhaps I don’t know what I’m missing.
