You’re Messing With the Wrong Generation (Quintuple Barf Alert!)

Your post should be hanging in the administrators offices of every high school and grammar school in America as an example of just how much the education system in this country has gone downhill, being taught by the same Gen X'ers most of you and your ilk in this thread want to highlight.

Well what can I say, I am a product of the dumbed down boomer educational system.

BTW, You forgot the apostrophe in adminstrators so I would advise you to check you grammar before posting about someone else's.

Those aren't Gen X'ers. Those are called kooks and crybabies. They span all generations.

LOL -- Touche'. It just strikes me that Xers (and Yers) do it more.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Some schools have more than one administrator, some are administrator's to more than one school, some are district administrator's, Sherlock.

Yes, we know you're a product of the dumbed down school system, I already pointed that out in two posts.

[Pagey]

In college we learned that people like you are called sociopaths but we think you're just plain evil.

Boy, Talk about Calling The Kettle Black Ms. Becky "Sycophant to Bill and Hillary Clinton" Burgwin. LOL at her feeble attempt to distract attention away from her Saul Alinsky Tactics.Nice try though Beck.

[SaveTheChief]

I hate hippies. They want to save the earth but all they do is smoke pot and smell bad.

The president elected first by the X'ers is currently in the White House

Nice try. Gen Xers don't generally vote. They just whine. sf4dubya is correct with his statement. Your reply is incorrect.

GWB was the first, but won't be the last president elected by the Gen-X voters. After GWB, there most likely won't be any more boomer presidents -- ever again.

Military Industrial Complex

Blah Blah Blah, how misguide coud she be? Try this one on for size Beck:

Dwight D. Eisenhower's Farewell Address to the Nation January 17, 1961 (excerpt on the Educational-Research Complex)
>Akin to, and largely responsible for the sweeping changes in our industrial-military posture, has been the technological revolution during recent decades.
In this revolution, research has become central, it also becomes more formalized, complex, and costly. A steadily increasing share is conducted for, by, or at the direction of, the Federal government. Today, the solitary inventor, tinkering in his shop, has been overshadowed by task forces of scientists in laboratories and testing fields.
In the same fashion, the free university, historically the fountainhead of free ideas and scientific discovery, has experienced a revolution in the conduct of research. Partly because of the huge costs involved, a government contract becomes virtually a substitute for intellectual curiosity. For every old blackboard there are now hundreds of new electronic computers.
The prospect of domination of the nation's scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present – and is gravely to be regarded.
Yet, in holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we should, we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.

The actual problem is the Educational-Research Complex, but Becky could never comprehend it.

Huh? That doesn't make any sense. Pretty much 100% of people who are electable -- both parties -- are boomers.

[Pagey]

OOPS: How misguided could she be?

[BigSkyFreeper]

Bush won't have to depend on just the Gen X'ers. Bush's base is the United States of America. Kerry's is just the marginal segement of the hippies, dopesmokers, kooks and crybabies filled with rage and anger. They're only concerned with the removal of Bush from the White House, anything beyond that is beyond their capacity to think.

You are all added (As well as everyone who Freep mailed me),

Welcome to the Ping list.

[Howlin]

William F. Buckley disagrees with you, but never mind that. He must be lying.

[qam1]

Some schools have more than one administrator, some are administrator's to more than one school, some are district administrator's, Sherlock. Yes, we know you're a product of the dumbed down school system, I already pointed that out in two posts.

Ok now you are putting it where it doesn't belong, But as for your assertion if there is more than one, Then the apostrophe goes after the "s" as in "Administrators' offices". Geez, learn your grammar.

[qam1]

William F. Buckley disagrees with you, but never mind that. He must be lying.

OK, Can he give me one issue where Pataki is less Liberal than Hillary?

[Howlin]

William F. Buckley, Jr., from NRO:

"Meanwhile, George Pataki is running strong. Speaking without notes he delivered thunderous approval of his record, stressing such music for the ear of his audience as hugely reduced welfare rolls, reduction in crime, and a forthcoming billion-dollar tax reduction."

So I guess you're position would be that Buckley is lying and that Hillary would do those same things!

Never mind, don't answer. I'm really not interested in arguing with a dimbulb.

[BigSkyFreeper]

This from the clown who uses "ai'nt" instead of "isn't" LMAO!

[Howlin]

You know what drives ME nuts? Gratuitous capitalization. :-)

[BigSkyFreeper]

Heh. I know what you mean. :)

[Amelia]

Gratuitous capitalization. :-)

Now Howlin, don't be Hateful. You know there's Nothing wrong with Capitalizing whichever words You would like to Capitalize. ;-)
