I have a few far Left friends and we never discuss politics. I like to discus it, but they prefer to steer clear of the topic. We get along pretty well that way, sort of.

Some of them are pretty smart people, too, so I don’t know why they buy into those idiotic ideas, especially when they are otherwise decent people, although I think the reasons are mostly emotional. For example, one woman I know has a deep need to identify with her parents who are Lefties, though also otherwise decent, mostly.

(Those I am criticizing for being morally bereft are the leaders who bear the responsibility for deceiving people when they know their “solutions” don’t work, or they should.)

As to being at risk of becoming a Lefty in college, it depends on who you are when you get there, where you go, what you major in, and who you associate with there.

As to the need to go to college today, it is important for high tech fields, and being certified competent to say, practice medicine, design a building safely, etc. But if one learns a trade, one can make a pretty decent living, sometimes even better than a lot of college grads. One fellow I know got a BA in philosopy, and he ended up working in a shoe store. Not that working in a shoe store is a bad thing, but spending all that dough to get through college is kind of the wrong way to prepare for it.

Besides, if you want to go to college as an adult there are lots of programs you can get into in your spare time, to upgrade skills needed to change fields, or to make more money in the field you are in, or just for fun.

As long as they can keep the con going, it doesn’t matter that we see them for what they are, as long as enough people believe them, especially judges who they need to keep ruling in their favor, or at the very least, not against them.

From my teachers I learn that… “It’s the nature of good people to DO good.” That tells me all I need to know about the Leftists.

It is, however, a shoddy thing to do to delegates and supers who went there to cast their votes for Hillary and represent their districts.

This week, in the wake of falling poll positions for His Messiahship, they couldn’t risk a public display of just how tight this race was, or a “recreate ‘68″ and having BHO lose the nomination at last minute. So they reneged on that agreement.

For Hillary to be the cheerleader in the protest of the new tradition (special for Obama…) of “no nomination votes are allowed”, it would be the death of her DNC career. If you think they ostracized Lieberman, that would be kind compared to what they would do to Hillary if she openly kept that wound open.

I never again want to hear a Democrat speak those words to me. They have lost all credibility on the issue.

They’ve debased themselves to a new low…. hard to believe. Now they resort to Obama campaign tactics (i.e. eliminate all the competition by refusing to have a full roll call vote) merely to give the appearance of “unity”. Did Hillary’s speech tonight sway them to Obama? I’m doubting it. Since she gave a rowser (in a Dem’s view, anyway), they’ll probably be more disappointed she’s not the nominee.

Frankly, I think the Hillary delegates and supers will be more than disappointed. And well they should be. The DNC called the game off early, and will not allow the teams to play it out in full.

INRE the Pakistan post… I know this subject doesn’t draw the comments, nor the readership. But many do read, perhaps pick up some extra tidbits. I think most of what I comment on now won’t necessarily become more obvious until further on in time. But perhaps they’ll remember reading, and it won’t be a bolt out of the blue - or an event that was unexpected.

But mostly, I write these as archival for myself. Between here and Sea2Sea, I have quite a databank of old news articles that I constantly backcheck as new events happen.

BTW, no one has deleted the “3 million visitor contest” post. It’s up there, and the caption contest continues. At this writing, up to 54 entries.

Hillarity - What’s that, Obie, I can’t hear a word your saying over the shouts of my supporters. And besides, I’ve got this terrible case of Laryngitis . . .

O’Bumbler - But you promised!

Hillarity - So, sue me.

If her supporters want her bad enough, and put up enough of a stink…, and if she doesn’t do anything to get them to stop…

I think that no matter what she agrees to before hand, when it comes time to play she can do whatever she wants if she’s holding the hand she seems to be holding. And, if he is at all perceived as attempting to strong arm her, his campaign is in the toilet.

Don’t you think this qualifies as family business? Should Republicans be telling Democrats how to run their party or their Convention?

FA bloggers cheer deliriously at any signs of Democratic discord and holler totalitarianism when the Democrats display unity. Oh, well, I guess that way whatever happens you can get your warm fuzzies and high-five each other or altenatively prophesy the coming Sovietization of America. Whatever makes you happy.

But you’ll have your Convention. Then there is the general election. That’s where you get your chance to argue your case in front of the American people. But until then I guess you have to have something to talk about on this blog. Pass the popcorn.

Did you notice you didn’t get a whole lot of comments on your posts about internal Pakistani politics? Guess why?

Hint, it wasn’t that there was something wrong with your post.

But Curt’s random picture with funny faces on Hillary and Barrack yielded a whole Animal House full of puerile flatulence and fellatio jokes. I fled the pollution early on, but I see it ran to 43 comments, before someone apparently deleted it. To FA’s credit, I might note.

Anyway, thought I might troll on by and say “Hi.” Since I was in the neighborhood.

This is incredible. But remember, Obama is a radical socialist. He belongs in Russia, where he can feel at home.

This is hard to believe. That a very basic, traditional vote at a convention will be knocked out. Hillary supporters should file a protest. The DNC rules allow for the opportunity for delegates to change their vote to Hillary from Obama. Will the Dems respect their own rules?

And, why doesn’t Hillary strongly protest and hold her ground — in the name of Democracy. I guess it’s because these are all birds of a feather.

Doesn’t Barack Hussein Obama realize he’s a loser.

Obama has is, without a doubt, the worst Democrat candidate ever.
