They went back in time and interviewed me as a middle schooler!
Seriously though, someone should really tell this kid about the evil socialist things the Mao and Lenin crowd have already gotten their hands on: fire departments, police, water treatment, public transportation, and the school he attends.
Maybe he can count and read GDP numbers. Yes, a shocker coming from public schools, but I guess there are rare bright spots.
those damned socialist public schools. Who needs em? Thanks Libertad.
LB, this is not the exact kind of over-the-top nonsense you distance yourself from constantly?
You claim to have voted for Obama, health care reform was one of his most important campaign promises. How is that campaign promise now a “socialist revolution?” How does the government “gain control of everything” if we get health care reform?
And again, isn’t this the stuff you pooh-pooh in order to sound like the “reasonable Republican?”
I keep trying to give you the benefit of the doubt, LB, and then you keep proving what a hypocritical piece of crap you are.
Find one of your posts or replies to me in which you don’t levy some personal insult. I’ll bet you can’t.
I don’t even read your posts any more. You have made yourself completely irrelevant by the way you’ve conducted yourself here, in my eyes.
Your last diary on this blog was “A rational look at birtherism,” wasn’t it?
And you have the balls to call me irrelevant?
I insult you because you are a disingenuous hypocrite who needs insulting, and I’m not sorry about it in the least.
I’ll give him that !
Kid, you get an F for the day. Next question.
The kid is spending time with his dad. His dad is making him socially and politically aware. Some day he’ll grow up and think for himself. At least he won’t be apathetic.
I don’t care what people believe as long as they believe in something.
In his famous letter about watering the tree of liberty with blood.
He wrote that letter in reference to the Whiskey Rebellion and said of the participants:
“(Their motives) were founded in ignorance, not wickedness. God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty…. Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon & pacify them.”
not the Whiskey Rebellion. (I knew I’d get something wrong.)
He was sitting on his ass in Paris at the time, so he could afford to be sanguine about people shooting each other an ocean away. That’s why that quote has always irritated me.
That whole attitude is my least favorite thing about TJ.
…who allows his son to listen to Rush. I see a child abuse investigation in the works…
they just listen to what their parents say and repeat parts of it and think they are very smart.
Reminds me of this kid:
http://politics.videosift.com/…
Actually it’s a big dilemma for me. On the one hand I want my kid to be smart and therefore not agree with everything I say just because s/he can’t think independently. On the other hand I don’t want him/her to end up like David Horowitz just because s/he wants to rebel.
First build base values (Tolerance, Fair Play, Compassion and the toughness to make them happen are what I shoot for)
Then build base knowledge (How things work-fact based-School house rock “I’m just a bill” kind of stuff)
Then develop learning skills and decision making skills.
Build in a self critical correcting mechanism that allows you to fail or be wrong without harming their self esteem (still working on a plan for this one).
Keep lines of communication open.
Turn them loose and hope they don’t end up on girls gone wild.
Building in humility without making their childhood miserable seems like it’ll be the hardest thing.
from parents, who actually practice/model the behavior.
