remember, there may actually be a price to pay for attempts at voter suppression TP ... it helped get out the black vote last election ... first time blacks voted at a higher rate than whites ... and last year or the year before was the first time more whites died than were born in the U.S. ... and over 50% of the population increase betwen 2000 and 2010 was Latina/o ... and you keep alienating YOUNG women ... the demographics clearly are not in your favor, so what's left? Voter suppression ... I understand .... but I don't think it'll work in the long run, and maybe not even in the short run ... we'll see ...

I understand the Left's need for propaganda. I understand the Left's need to cheat. I understand the Left's need to divide in order to conquer.

Your time may be coming to an end. The Constitution's requirement for a limited government helps all people without regard to skin color or any other attribute. People should be free from government interference with their lives in any area not granted to the federal level by a written Constitution.

It is very hard work to be on the wrong side of nearly every issue. I do understand.

Come to the right side. Life is much better when you do things because they are right to do instead of the wrong things that move the nation into a hard tyranny.

I would if you guys had won the last two elections ... Maybe in 2016? I don't see how you can lose with a Rand Paul/Ted Cruz ticket, and Sarah Palin and Ron Paul in the wings, poised to assume the positions of Secy of Education and Secy of State, respectively. Remember, Santorum expects to be appointed as Pope of the United States, with Ryan, Scalia, Alito, Roberts, and Thomas as his Cardinals ...

I see someone has been reading to you again ... that's a good thing ... you said something smart ... it was refreshing, and I like how you balanced it with several dumb things ...

Socialism is very appealing. It is how FDR won election after election. The Marxist has learned well. As have you.

Some of us are life long learners. Some of us are not.

Refresh your well of understanding. It will serve you well. But not you only. Those of us who endure you may be served as well.

I'm not sure how socialism worked its way into this, but O.K. ... that's cool ...

On another note Mister ... Do you realize how often you write to me? ... people are starting to talk ... maybe we should stop "seeing" each other for a while ...

most life long learners I know have to be because it takes them a really long time to learn things ... some of us get things in five minutes and don't need a lifetime ...

I agree, but as Plato said, “We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.” And you're not a child ...

No true at all. The amount of underemployed college grads is up over 10% since 2000. A significant jump considering the 1.5 million underemployed college grads.

How about lowering tax rates on all businesses? In fact lower them so that they are the lowest among the top 20 nations. Then others will send their businesses to the US.

We are no longer a free nation. We are not even in the top few.

Please, even if we lower taxes business will not come back here. You and I both know that. They'll go to China where they can get cheap sweatshop labor and have the government turn a blind eye on people suffering. Corporations are just fine even with high taxes.

If corporations were "just fine" what's up with the economy?

EXCELLENT! You're finally getting it! THat's precisely the problem: INEQUALITY. Corporations and the super rich keep getting richer, but the workers, the middle class, etc. go no where ... in the 50s, CEOs made about 50 times more than their average worker ... now it's closer to 300-500 times ... Wal-Mart's CEO makes 1043 times the median wage of his workers (btw, the Wal-Mart median wage for a family of four is just below or just above the poverty threshhold) .... but good ... you're geting it ...

Inequality? Really? How would you suggest the situation you describe be solved? Would you rather lower the reward for the successful to be more "equal" to the competency of those not succeeding or implement policies that allow for more success among everyone?

I suppose since the NSA is spying on all Americans now, that local governments are tracking our every move with cameras, what could possibly go wrong with a national identity card? We already have that by the way. The social security account number only needs a picture and a bar code on our wrist and we can enter Utopia. Forward Comrads!

And you don't think state IDs can't be accessed by your NSA set up by the Father of Liz Cheney! How foolish. And how ridiculous of a straw man. Again, why 50 different 21st century Jim Crow laws instead of just one National one? You know that answer.

Been looking for you, dood. See Bear Bryant Jr. is the only SECession coach to vote for 9 conference games, not 8. Which nonconference foe would he have dropped this year--Georgia Southern, Kent State, CO State, or D-2 Chattannooga? And you keep missing FL, SC, GA.
