Hypocritical Protesters - "Down with Principles!!" "Up with Media Exposure!!"
Interesting how these folks who believe strongly enough in something to give up their lives and to go to Boston/NY to protest for/against it, but then immediately sacrifice their 'principles' to vote for someone 'who is not Bush'.

They'll be out in droves in NYC to harrangue the Republicans, knowing that our wonderful liberal media will give them the spotlight they desire. It's no surprise to Americans that protesters in Boston had no spotlight. Who would bother to protest the party of enlightenment, inclusion, and pro-'little guy'? Those are the media's and the DNC's definitions, not mine.
I wonder if poor Americans, minorities, and gays notice that the Democratic leadership is made up of white millionaires? I thought these downtrodden folks were tired of the white man's lies?
Sometimes I despair for Americans - the liberal media plays us like fiddles and those who are not intellectually disciplined enough to question the propaganda that is CNN, CBS, NBC, ABC, NY Times, etc. are easily swayed by populist rhetoric. I blame the 'liberalization' of education in America. Anyone who has attended college after 1960, like me, has been the target of 're-education', Soviet-style. "If you don't believe us, you are obviously a reactionary and need further 're-education". In modern academia, Left = Corrrect, and Right = Ignorance. Fantasy and lies have replaced reality and honesty, and true academic impartiality is arrogantly attributed to narrowmindedness.
As a business professional, I haven't made hiring decisions based upon educational background in some time. I've always attempted to place into context the applicant's recent work history and accomplishments, and their educational background was always a supporting criteria. But these days I find myself going the other way. Should I see schools like Yale, Princeton, Bryn Mar, Stanford, UCLA, Berkely, and just about any other formerly top-notch school, I look deeper into the applicant's history than I did before. What I find is disturbing - applicants that attended these schools overwhelmingly list accomplishments such as 'diversity specialization', 'gender-neutral communications', 'affirmative action program expert', 'racism-free taxonomies', etc. But when I ask in interviews for them to elaborate on System Development Life Cycle, I get answers that demonstrate an alarming lack of fundamental scientific, logical thought.
So generally I stick with hiring immigrants and Americans who developed their expertise in the marketplace, and mostly do not have college educations. Degrees from many of these Ivy League socialist factories are becoming a liability in the market. I don't hire them anymore, that's for sure.
Adios MF,
