Yes, reading IS fundamental. Read this again.

Thomas Sowell is a brilliant man, and a great thinker. Knowing his frame of reference, he would absolutely be the first to tell you that the problem with education in America is that it has become a fascist enterprise of the left since the 80s and teacher's unions being taken over by socialist ninny's

That's why my kids have been homeschooled all their lives. Not only are they much smarter than the average kids their age, they are now productive members of society who don't fall for media propoganda.

Kaiser Wilhelm started that.

When a grape tells you that it is purple or green, you should listen because grapes don't talk much.

And they would know it better than the orange.

Or you could be an ostrich, who has their head in the sand

.

Then let me help you. There in no other nation in this world that has more legitimacy to exist.

NONE.

The lying hypocrites that support terrorists in Israel, don't ever support those same people where they suffer worse in other nations.

It's transparent. They hate God.

and you support Margeret Sanger, a bigger racist than even Hitler.

Duly noted

you mean like Trump DERANGEMENT Syndrome?

Yea, those people are really hypocrites, right?

Could not agree more

CBS chief foreign affairs correspondent confirms that journalism has been replaced by propoganda




On Monday, former chief foreign affairs correspondent for CBS News Lara Logan dropped a bombshell on the media: she told retired Navy SEAL Mike Ritland that the media are wildly biased to the political Left. “This interview is professional suicide for me,” she stated, after agreeing with Ritland that most major media are “absurdly left-leaning.”

She stated: "The media everywhere is mostly liberal, not just in the U.S. But in this country, 85% of journalists are registered Democrats – that’s just a fact. No one is registering Democrat when they’re really a Republican. So, the facts are on the side that you just stated: most journalists are Left, or liberal, or Democrat, or whatever word you wanna give it. How do you know you’re being lied to? How do you know you’re being manipulated? How do you know there’s something not right with the coverage? When they simplify it all and there’s no gray. There’s no gray. It’s all one way. Well, life isn’t like that. If it doesn’t match real life, it’s probably not — there’s something wrong.

Compare Logan’s accurate take on the media with the words of opinion writer Jonathan Capehart of The Washington Post and MSNBC, who described the media’s wild malfeasance on the Jussie Smollett story this way:

Just the circumstances and the way he told the story, and what he said happened to him sort of fit in with a narra -- not a narrative, but a reality for a lot of people in this country since President Trump was inaugurated, that there is an atmosphere of menace and an atmosphere of hate around the country that made it possible for people to either readily believe or want to believe Jussie Smollett.

Capehart’s Freudian slip is actually rather important. He was correct that many in the media granted credibility to Smollett’s hoax because it fit a narrative. But then he corrected himself to state that it wasn’t a narrative at all – it was a “reality for a lot of people in this country.”

Now, this slip is fascinating because it reveals the unfortunate truth about many media members on the political Left: they mistake their narrative for truth. Opinion becomes fact. Those who disagree with a given “fact” – fact which is actually opinion – are then labeled ignorant, or foolish, or malevolent.


Is this an innocent mistake, a matter of mere confirmation bias to which we are all prone? Or is something deeper going on?

Since the 1960s, the radical Left has claimed that most human interactions are governed by power dynamics. Critical theory suggests, for example, that free markets aren’t actually voluntaristic arrangements of individuals engaging in mutually beneficial trade – they’re a reflection of hierarchical arrangements created by the rich. Thus, critical theorists suggest that a regulated market controlled by “the people” – progressives – would properly rejigger economic relationships. Similarly, critical theory suggests that free speech isn’t actually free – it’s a system set up by those who have powerful distribution mechanisms for their speech at the expense of others. Thus, critical theorists suggest, along the lines of Herbert Marcuse, that certain opinions must be silenced in order to even the playing field – “repressive tolerance” must be applied.

If you believe in such critical theory, you aren’t likely to be shy about the application of your own political power to these supposedly hierarchical systems. After all, if you believe that systems of speech and economics are constructed by the powerful, then you should use every means at your disposal to act against them. If you can blame some nefarious right-wing forces using hidden mechanisms of power for all the systems you don’t like, then you can use institutional power to tear away at those systems.

Thus, media bias becomes not an evil, or even an error to be mitigated, but an affirmative good. Objectivity, in the critical theory framework, is an illusion used by certain powers against other powers; thus, the illusion of objectivity can and should be used by more legitimate powers on behalf of certain political interests.

Most members of the media surely don’t think like this; most members of the media probably fall prey to confirmation bias rather than ideological self-justification. But the continued insistence by members of our media that they are not prone to such confirmation bias, when they so obviously are, suggests that at a certain point, confirmation bias shades over into affirmative enjoyment of Leftist power politics. And that is truly dangerous, because politically-motivated players using the façade of objectivity to press forward an agenda aren’t journalists at all.

They’re simply liars.

That has never happened. More false narrative to avoid looking at the horrible truth of your positions


You admit to liking Farakhan? Wow...easily the top racist in America.

You excuse Margaret Sanger for wanting to snuff out your race? Wow. just wow.

Dude, I went through that for almost the last 10 years of a 22 year marriage. In my case, she had an episode of mental illness brought on by the stress/fear of 3 people murdered in our neighborhood (one behind my house) in 6 months time. It was weird. She see any speck of dust or dandruff or lint as a little animal that wanted to bite her.

I would never leave her for that, she couldn't help it. I loved her enough to stick through it. But during that time she also developed a germ-phobia and I couldn't touch her without being sanitized, which killed all spontaneity.

So I bought a new house and moved, which seemed to fix that.

Then she started pre-menopause, menopause, then post menopause and peri-menopause (whatever the hell that is?) and suddenly she started complaining that I hurt her...and I'm not "that" big? She simply stopped enjoying sex and avoided me. I travel constantly in my job and only got home 4 or 5 days per month quite often so it was easy for her to find other things to do when I was home (vet, shopping, visit her sister, etc). And it was hell to feel like I was forcing myself on her.

After a while I really believed she was trying to force me to commit adultery so she would have moral grounds to divorce me. (she's very religious). So my choice was the stigma of a divorce.....or adultery. We've been divorced almost 2 years now. I still love her but just could not go through that anymore. I've had a lot of anger about it, feel betrayed after all those years of being faithful and good to her. Having trouble trusting women now, and swore off "old ladies" because of her. Just starting to get over all that.

But now I've got a connundrum. I have old fashioned values...but not living like it. I want to know that my next partner LOVES sex all the time before I get married again. Raised 2 families already so it's all about the bedroom now. I can get companionship and friendship elsewhere if I have to.

I don't really like that...but it is what it is until some girl convinces me otherwise. There went all my chances of finding a date here, eh??

Let's hook up!!!!

7 Quotes from Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood


“We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population.”

In a letter to Dr. Clarence Gamble in December, 19, 1939, Sanger exposited her vision for the “Negro Project,” a freshly launched collaboration between the American Birth Control League and Sanger’s Birth Control Clinical Research Bureau. The letter echoes the eugenic ideologies still visible within the corporate vein of Planned Parenthood today.




“I accepted an invitation to talk to the women’s branch of the Ku Klux Klan.”

In 1926, Sanger spoke at a Ku Klux Klan rally in 1926 in Silver Lake, New Jersey. Following the invitation, Sanger describes her elation after receiving multiple speaking requests from white supremacy groups. She writes of the experience on page 366 of her book, An Autobiography:
I accepted an invitation to talk to the women’s branch of the Ku Klux Klan … I saw through the door dim figures parading with banners and illuminated crosses … I was escorted to the platform, was introduced, and began to speak … In the end, through simple illustrations I believed I had accomplished my purpose. A dozen invitations to speak to similar groups were proffered.




“They are…human weeds,’ ‘reckless breeders,’ ’spawning… human beings who never should have been born.”

In “Pivot of Civilization,” Sanger penned her thoughts regarding immigrants, the poor, and the error of philanthropy. Sanger’s ideology of racial and social hygiene bleeds through her writings on breeding an ideal human race: They are…human weeds,’ ‘reckless breeders,’ ’spawning… human beings who never should have been born. Organized charity itself is the symptom of a malignant social disease…Instead of decreasing and aiming to eliminate the stocks [of people] that are most detrimental to the future of the race and the world, it tends to render them to a menacing degree dominant.




“Birth control is nothing more or less than…weeding out the unfit.”

Sanger famously coined the term “birth control” with the intention of eliminating the reproduction of human beings who were considered “less fit.” In her writings from “Morality and Birth Control” and “Birth Control and the New Race,” the Planned Parenthood founder noted that the chief aim of the practice of birth control is to produce a “cleaner race.” Sanger’s vision for birth control was to prevent the birth of individuals whom she believed were unfit for mankind:





 “Human beings who never should have been born at all.”

In “The Pivot of Civilization” and “A Plan for Peace,” Sanger describes the eugenic value of eliminating
persons – minorities, the sick, and the disabled – through sterilization or segregation





“I think the greatest sin in the world is bringing children into the world.”

In an 1957 interview with journalist Mike Wallace, Sanger advocated that the greatest evil is a family that chooses to bring children into the world. Sanger, who advocated for a system requiring every American family to submit a request to the government to have a child, told America Weekly in 1934 that it has “become necessary to establish a system of BIRTH PERMITS”






“But for my view, I believe that there should be no more babies.”

In a 1947 interview that surfaced via the British Pathe, Sanger described her desire for women in the developed world to cease completely from reproduction.  When asked by the reporter whether this would be impractical to ask women who desire children, but would no longer be able to conceive in 10 years, Sanger said, “I should think instead of being impractical, it is really very practical and intelligent and humane.”





These are the very words of a racist. The Democrat/Socialist/Fascists wish to continue her vision of eugenics.

But they won't defend innocent babies...for love of blood money.





.

shhhhhh....let them find out the hard way in the next election that the Democrats are no longer closet socialists, but outright fascist.

It will be the end of the DNC and it can't come soon enough.

Anyone who wants to know the truth can find it.

But ask a Venezuelan, not a liberal hiding behind a computer in north America. They exploit the situation for political gain.

Dude, I'm writing from Israel. I've been staying at a kibbutz about 10 miles from Gaza and NOTHING is going on from Israel's side.

These are impure lies. Period.

And this appears to imply that Israel has been murdering civilians daily, but the only time 60 were killed was during the Gaza riots in May 2018 where HAMAS (on terrorist list of almost every country) was rushing the Israel border, launching bombs on kites, and throwing malatov cocktails at soldiers guarding the border. Those cowards were using women and children for human shields. Really nice people you support there.

Hamas got what they asked for. Israel was extremely restrained and humane not to just bomb them out of existence. Too bad Israel didn't go kill every member of Hamas, imo.

You've chosen the side of liars and brutal murderers. You like Arafat and Abbas? Move to Bethlehem and give you about a week before you come crying back to America. THEY are brutal crooks, stealing all foreign aid given to Palestinians (aka Jordanian arabs) and putting it in their Swiss accounts.

Here are the people you love MURDERING an entire Arab wedding party in Gaza because they had the audacity to play joyful music.

Wait....there's something else?

Yep, we have to be careful when making a good law since Democrats WILL ABUSE the law later.

100% bad

God bless South Carolina!



That's not true. They outlawed BDS (which only hurts Arabs living in Israel) and blood libel myths that have been perpetrated to justify murder for many centuries now. I mean telling lies is probably covered by freedom of speech, but when those lies are used to justify murder it seems different.

What is this about killing 60 civilians? I don't remember hearing about the US Senate doing that, and I know you can't mean Israel, because they don't harm anyone who isn't trying to harm them. You mean they killed a bunch of blood-thirsty terrorists?

GOOD! Thank you, Israel, for protecting innocent people!





.

Of course you do...they're criminals like all other Democrat's in government.


I think they will look good in orange jump suits.

You don't go from journalism to a job in the new administration if you are known for your hard-hitting pieces against that party or for being even-handed. You get that job because your prior work has proven that you're a loyal member of that party.

George W. Bush's former comms director is chief political correspondent for ABC News. Oh wait, I'm sorry that would be Bill Clinton's. Bill Clinton's former comms director is chief political correspondent at ABC News.

I still can't believe that John Bolton's brother was president of CBS News. So sorry. That's Ben Rhodes' (Obama's National Security advisor) brother who was president of CBS News.

But what about when a former TIME bureau chief became a mouthpiece for Bush? Probably showed some strong bias, huh? Ahhh I did it again. That was Jay Carney, Obama's second press secretary.

CNN giving a morning show to someone who worked in the Bush administration still gets me, though. I mean, come on now. Excuse me again, that's Jim Sciutto, who worked in the Obama administration.

The killer for me is the fact that Mike Pence's own brother gets his own primetime show on CNN. And it's all about how they "get after it." Oh my goodness gracious, my foot is in my mouth. That's Chris Cuomo I'm thinking of, brother of Democratic New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.


And then there's that Bush donor who co-anchors the CBS morning show. She's best friends with the Bushes, even VACATIONS with them. Incredible. Oh no oh no, that's Gayle King, an Obama donor who's vacationed with them and is openly friendly with Democrats. I'm so silly.

My favorite was the time that a right wing political hack who was working at Fox sent debate questions to the Trump campaign. Then when it came out and she was fired, the RNC hired her. Oh wait that was Donna Brazile, Hillary, and CNN


George Stephanopolous: Former White House adviser to ex-president Bill Clinton, went on from his administration position to become an ABC News anchor. He has no journalistic qualifications. Stephanopolous's wife said they would move to Australia if Trump won. There’s still hope that they mean if he wins again.


NBC News hired Chelsea in November 2011 to serve as a special correspondent. Her annual salary was $600,000. Chelsea Clinton is highly educated but has zero journalistic experience or qualifications.


Christiane Amanpour: Chief international correspondent for CNN married to James Rubin since 1998.Rubin served as the Assistant Secretary of State for Public Affairs in the Clinton White House. Also a senior policy adviser to then-Sen Joe Biden and Hilary Clinton campaign staffer.

Laura Jarrett, daughter of Obama family friend + confidante,Valerie Jarrett
(she even moved into the Obama family home in Washington) was hired by CNN to cover the Justice Department. Laura has no journalistic experience or qualifications,the Obamas even attended her wedding.

Claire Shipman: Contributor on “Good Morning America” and Senior Correspondent for ABC News is married to Jay Carney, former press secretary to Barack Obama.


Ben Sherwood: President of the Disney-ABC Television Group (the biggest television company in the world) is the brother of Elizabeth Sherwood who served at a very high level (in various roles) in both the Obama and Clinton administration.

Donna Brazile: Former Democratic National Committee chair and high profile CNN commentator. Wikileaks exposed her leaking questions to Hilary Clinton's 2016 campaign manager John Podesta. To its credit, CNN severed ties with Ms. Brazile over the scandal.

*adapted from several posts read recently on Twitter.

I was simply pointing out that your characterization of an ACTUAL eye witness as "random" was flawed and nothing more than misdirection to avoid even looking for the truth.

I got more misdirection, as typical, but the point stands.
