@Debra Law,
Quote:You don't know me at all. Pretending you do is just that: pretending.
I never claimed to know you, I'm just saying that being a lawyer does not make you a normal American.
Quote:And mocking and devaluing education is a problem. Defunding education is a problem. An uneducated electorate, however, is much easier to manipulate. The uneducated, whom Trump proclaims to love, gobble up propaganda and serve as useful idiots.
I didn't mock education, I mocked you being an intellectual elitist. Only a elitist would mix up the difference. Can you seriously look at some of the people coming out of college and say what you said with a straight face? It's today's colleges that are producing the people who say they want an education but don't want to pay for it. They don't understand what it means to earn something. Some of and their teachers were asking to be let loose from their mid-terms/finals because Trump won the election and they were depressed and needed their safe spaces... pussies. They might have an education, but they have no idea how to act and behave like adults.
Quote:No cake for decades. If you believe the proverbial cake only went missing over the last 8 years, then you might be among the uneducated. I hope you're not among those people who gobble up propaganda with a voracious appetite.
Tell me all about it college educated Lawyer... tell me about the lack of cake. The only propaganda being spread is the lie that the American Dream is dead by intellectual elitists who already have their slice of the pie. People like you who want the govt to take control and tell us what's best.
Quote:You say Obama didn't fix anything while acknowledging that obstructionists stood in the way of progress.
Call them obstructionists all you want to but Obama had a majority his first 2 years in office and wasted it. He went extreme and the American people told him what they thought of that in every election since. The DNC has lost seats in Congress since 2010.
It's curious that you call the check and balance system obstructionist. For a lawyer you sure don't believe in the Constitution.
Quote:Why didn't the obstructionists do some fixing then? Who were obstructing the obstructionists?
I guess you missed the part where Harry Reid did everything in his power to make sure nothing left committee to get voted on by the Senate. At one point there were over 200 bills that had passed The House but died in Reid's Senate.
Quote:I think Obama tried to mend relations between the races, but I believe it was the racists who were offended that a black man was sitting in the White House and had the audacity to criticize a cop. There are far too many racists in this country who have done nothing but tear President Obama to shreds. That is troubling.
There it is again, more claims of unfounded racism against a President who elected mostly by white people. He commented on a case that was not really a case except that he made a deal out of it and called the police stupid. Then to fix his stupid comment, he invited them both over for a beer. Lame! This false cry of racism at every corner is part of the reason Trump won, you guys beat that drum too many times.
Quote:It's the people occupying positions of power in the executive branch that execute laws or fail to execute the laws.
You mean Obama?
Quote:Bureaucrats and heads of agencies wield enormous discretionary powers.
They should hold almost no power as they are not authorized via the Constitution to hold power. They pass laws that end up getting overturn by the courts because they overstep their bounds. The only people who should be creating law are those in the Legislative branch. Under Obama, he bypassed the Legislative branch and allowed those with no Constitiutional power to make the laws. Check the court decisions on his EPA and other depts that were overturned.
Quote:When the regulations change as you say they will, then I'm sure that an abundance of money will flow into the pockets of the richest of rich. Maybe some of that money will trickle down to you. More likely not. More likely you and your children and grandchildren will suffer grave harm caused by deregulation and the lack of oversight. There's no question that our environment will also suffer grave harm, and what will people do when our environment can longer sustain life? I suppose you're okay with toxic waste in your back yard and contaminated drinking water?
Well according to people like you and the intellectual elites it is already that way. You were the one who said Decades of no cake... You claim the American Dream is dead.
