After the 1960s the left took over public education in America. That was the plan and it has worked. Now they have successfully "educated" the minorities in our biggest cities. Minorities now understand that they are victims and, as such, are fully entitled to housing, food, and spending money. Anything unfortunate that happens to them is a result of racism. Racism if prevalent in our society and all whites are racist. But by definition, an African-American cannot be racist. Once you understand that, you understand how the Marion Barrys of our world are elected to office. It's all part of the plan.

You seem to miss the main point. Mirkarimi is like most liberals-- a hypocrite. He can't help it. He truly doesn't see that his behavior is exactly like the wife beaters he regularly puts in jail. He's above other people. He's one of the anointed and therefor not subject to the same rules as the masses. Just like Gore asking us to limit our carbon use while he jets around the world and lives in a mansion. Just like Michael Moore claiming to be part of OWS while living in a multi-million dollar lake-front home. (actually his SECOND home) Just like Obama asking us all to sacrifice, while he jets with his wife to Chicago to celebrate Valentine's day. They don't think like you and me. They're the elite.

Romney should know that anything he says will be taken out of context, but he still keeps giving his opponents ammunition. I keep waiting for Newt to say, "I'm thinking about making Romney my vice president. Joe Biden has shown the main job for a vice president is to say one stupid thing after another. Romney can fill that bill quite nicely."

In other words, it's okay to be religious, just not outwardly so. Don't live your faith day to day, do it in the secrecy at your place of worship. Hmmm....kind of like China, or the Soviet Union.

The criticism of Cain is that he fell for this race baiting. Correct response: "I learned a long time ago that accusations and innuendo in the main-stream media should be checked thoroughly when a conservative is being written about, especially during a political campaign. I've been a victim myself. I'll comment on that after I've gotten Governor Perry's response, but I've seen nothing in his history to show he is racially insensitive."

It's typical of liberals to idolize those with an advanced degree and to be blind to their failings. Obama has a law degree from Harvard but has no economic sense, no experience in business, and a propensity to say stupid things when not reading from a teleprompter. A phd suffix after a person's name does not bestow common sense on that person. Your description of business and the free-market system shows an ignorance quite common among the intellectually elite. A brief look at the history of economic systems of various countries past and present will show the success of free markets and the failure of statist systems.

Unions became powerful in private industry. As a result of the imbalance in management/worker power, steel companies were forced to move operations overseas, car manufacturers were forced into bankruptcy, and much of industry was forced to either export operations or go out of business due to loss of competitive edge. Union leadership is not stupid. Seeing their membership diminish, they looked around for a sector that could neither go bankrupt nor export jobs overseas. They settled on government. Government had an additional benefit. If in private industry the union bosses attempted to bribe the negotiators sitting across the table from them, someone was likely to go to jail, or at least get fired. In negotiations with the government...

We will pardon your ignorance on what re-distribution of wealth entails. One of the basic foundations of our country is the right of property, that is, keeping the fruits of one's labor. If I work harder, smarter, or more efficiently, I make more money. I should not be forced to share it with the slackers or the less industrious. I believe in charity and want to help those less fortunate than me. But it's my privilege and my duty to decide who is worthy of that charity. It is wrong for me to abdicate my charitable responsibilities to the government.

Great coverage on the war. One point of clarification for President Obama and politically correct crowd, "40 female U.S. Marines and Navy corpsmen" should be translated to "40 female U.S. Marines and Navy corpse-women."
