I don't think Alexander was paying much attention in class either. He killed one of his best friends while he was drunk.

There's a "Calvin and Hobbes" strip where Calvin tells Hobbes how he had a chance to cheat on a test but didn't--he said it just wouldn't have felt right to cheat on an ethics test.

I don't think I even knew the word in grammar school.

It was 10 commandaments and do unto others.

Don't swear, steal, be rude and don't step on Mrs. Cullian's lawn.

This is a day of Obama saying this and Obama saying that, and everything coming out of his teleprompter is full of crap.

Barry must have learned “ethics” at Harvard Law School, how else would he be so good at screwing the country to pay off his cronies.

I studied Aristotle's ethics after college. While in college, however, I have some vivid history class memories (SMCC, Dr. Woods) about Alexander. Those thoughts came to me much later as I studied Aristotle's Ethics. Alexander, for instance, was the first general in history to send some men home on leave during winter encampments; and he also left locals in charge of captured territory to, among other things, send annual "tribute" to Macedonia.

Aristotle's Ethics is non-denominational, common sense stuff.

“I was not always the very best student that I could be when I was in high school, and certainly not when I was in middle school,” Obama said, speaking at Benjamin Banneker Academic High School.

*******

Could someone please explain to me again how Hawaii student Obama---who admits above that he was not always the best student--- was able to be accepted at and pay for his expenses at private and selective Occidental College in California? Strange. Very strange.

Obama ethics is the proper loading and passing of the crack pipe.

but if you’d ask me what my favorite subject was back in 8th grade, it was basketball.

WTF??? Basketball as an 8th grade subject? Was recess a subject also...........it's been so long I don't remember.
