Also I just finished Hunter S Thompson's eulogy for Nixon and god drat did he hate that man with an absolute passion. I've loathed a few people before but I cannot even come close to the screaming hatred with which he regarded Nixon. And yet, in 2004 he said he'd vote for Nixon over Bush/Cheney, which is really telling

So the CIA found that the GOP faked documents regarding Bengazhi to frame Hilary Clinton. I doubt this will get any coverage in the media, and somehow Rush and his ilk will spin it around saying that the CIA is just a tool of Obama and the Clintons, so of course they'd say that.

To be fair it was a very banal and un-sexy bit of fraud on Gowdy's part, nobody was taking the Benghazi hearings seriously and they made Clinton look so good that harping about it after the fact just seemed mean.

My mom is the same way (although she notes that he still sponsored/funded more government programs than any of his GOP successors.)

Pope Guilty posted:Nixon was a monster, but he was from before the days when it became an article of faith in the republican party that the government must be abolished. Things that happened under the Nixon administration -created the EPA -created OSHA -created "The War on Cancer" -opened up relations with China -ended the draft -lowered the voting age to 18 -Title IX (Which is awesome) Things Nixon proposed -Guaranteed HealthCare -Guaranteed Minninum Wage All of this done to out-liberal popular liberals at the time. The "true believers" have taken over the party. No longer do people just say racist poo poo to get elected or talk about getting rid of various programs. They're ACTUALLY DOING IT. Of all people Barry Goldwater predicted this with frightening accuracy. "Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible drat problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them."

Nixon proposed the GMI as a replacement for all welfare/social spending programs. Really screws people over if their needs exceed the GMI and they can't work, and it's a lot easier to rail against and neglect increases for the GMI than it is for a whole web of social programs. It's like debt consolidation for assholes.

Another school closure due to Islamic related issues. http://time.com/4154591/islam-arabic-school-virginia/ quote:Some parents thought their pupils were being indoctrinated Guess what gravy swilling man-boy weighed in http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2015/12/15/students-practice-calligraphy-by-writing-there-is-no-god-but-allah.html I love how so many on the right wing honestly believe that children are somehow so fragile and susceptible to "indoctrination" that merely being exposed to the ideas and practices of another religion is enough to turn them into junior-jihadis.

No, that's not the point. The point is it would be just as wrong to do something like, I dunno, recite the Nicene Creed or something in a Latin/Romance language class. It's a breach of church/state stuff. UFOTofuTacoCat posted:Can someone tell me why Rush calls the San Bernardino shooter "Farooq Syed Climate Change"? Because Obama said a thing where he thinks Climate Change is under reported in comparison to terrorism, and terrorism makes the news too much. Plus someone else sometime said something about climate change being a greater threat, overall, than terrorism. And I'm sure there's an argument somewhere about climate change being a partial cause of terrorism. Doctor Butts fucked around with this message at 15:08 on Dec 18, 2015 |

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/17/upshot/how-a-quiet-corner-of-iowa-packs-such-a-fierce-conservative-punch.html?smid=fb-share&_r=0 Interesting article about how NW IA is super conservative and affects the caucuses there. I came from that area, I agree with everything in that article about how ultra conservative it is. I am so glad I moved away. The best part is how people from uppper NY moved to NW IA because they felt NY was too liberal.

The thing that irks me the most is that it's really hard to incorporate any kind of cultural teachings into a lesson plan unless it's explicitly Judeo-Christian or neutered to not include any kind of faith based information. I went to a Jesuit high school in Indianapolis where they made a great effort to make us aware of different religions and cultures. Our first year included 4 quarterly cultural units for social studies and a world religion class that devoted equal lesson plans to several faiths. I took a class on liberation theology my junior year. Granted it was a private school but I'm pretty sure I didn't just flip a switch and change from Lutheran to Roman Catholic because I learned about Jesuits. I just can't figure out at what point in education, from K to 12, where someone can actually teach a course and say, "This is X culture, they value religion a lot based on their history, here are some historical lessons" without some soccer mom or blue-collar dad screeching "  THAT'S RELIGIOUS INDOCTRINATION  " but they're ok with optional prayer led by school officials in group settings like athletics.
