Ah, the hallowed halls of academia. I like the people there, but sometimes (okay, that's probably an understatement) their thinking is a bit whacky on political stuff.

Needless to say - anyone - and I do mean anyone - at my company, who did this to anyone - and I do mean anyone - would be fired.

Obama Lays Plans to Kill Expectations After Election Victory; by Tim Reid, The Times of London: “Confident in an Election Day win, the campaign looks to lower supporters' expectations on concerns their hopes of 'change' are unrealistic, a senior aide says “Barack Obama’s senior advisers have drawn up plans to lower expectations for his presidency if he wins next week’s election, amid concerns that many of his euphoric supporters are harbouring unrealistic hopes of what he can achieve.” “One senior adviser told The Times that the first few weeks of the transition, imediately after the election, were critical, “so there’s not a vast mood swing from exhilaration and euphoria to despair”

Uh oh, Obama supporters still have to pay for gas and their mortgages. They aren't gonna like that. Hey, I bet they don't even know he won't actually be President till January 20th.
Well, at least they gotta pay until that first day when he is sworn in.

Ayers, apparently still proud of his bombings in 2004:

Spending a weekend with an accused domestic terrorist shows what kind of guy he is:

Back in the winter of 2004, I spent a weekend crashing at Ayers’ house. ..

...The whole weekend was a political awakening for me, and I began to understand just exactly whose house I was staying in. Ayers drove us all over Chicago — he showed us the statue in Haymarket Square that he bombed in 1969. The city rebuilt the statue in May 1970, and he bombed it again six months later. The statue was dedicated to fallen police officers who were killed during a clash with labor supporters during the 1886 Haymarket riot...

What ever happened to the grown-ups?

So far today, I've dealt with attacks from people almost as old as my parents, calling Republicans "scum," me a racist hatemonger, and a "christian freakshow."

Just when I was about to throw in the towel, I noticed that the calendar hanging in the dry cleaner's shop featured Norman Rockwell prints of kids. I flipped through it and thought about the way life used to be, when my parents were kids, when nobody thought it would kill a kid to have them pump and carry water, or to fish, or play outside with (GASP) nothing more than a ball to entertain themselves.

My dry cleaner is Korean. I have probably posted here before, but he is the best American I know. Good product, fair price, service with a smile.

I refuse to believe that all is lost as long as we can still remember a better time (maybe not wealthier, but better). We may have to count out the older jackass baby boomers like Exhibit A here as a lost cause, but the younger generation can still grow up, learn some civility, and take responsibility for their own lives. I suggest we focus on them. I'm not going to stay quiet any more.

Frank Putz is on Fox. His hair is the same color as his tie-- orange.

Yeah... the nice thing about a rug is you can change them to match your neckwear.

Cute.

A cheerful take from one of instapundit's readers: I pretty much concur.

Trouble is – when the evil folk who earn more than $250K fail to provide the necessary dollars to fulfill the dreams of The One, the sliding scale of evil will appear. Soon, those who earn $175K and then those who earn $105K will be identified as evil and have their property confiscated.

The story is always the same. The socialist/communist/fascist state destroys the productivity of the middle class, confiscates the fruit of their labor and enforces a two class system – the many (who labor to support the State), and the few – The One, his family and his chosen disciples (who enjoy the power, status and wealth that the State provides).

There is no such thing as simply slowing down and enjoying the dole.

The thief comes to kill and steal and destroy. That’s it.

Ayers drove us all over Chicago — he showed us the statue in Haymarket Square that he bombed in 1969. The city rebuilt the statue in May 1970, and he bombed it again six months later. The statue was dedicated to fallen police officers who were killed during a clash with labor supporters during the 1886 Haymarket riot...

Example - I had a discussion on tax when I bought cigs. I mentioned that the cig tax had been raised to two bucks per pack. She said something that made me ask "you do know who raises taxes, right?" She smiled and said Republicans - as if she expected me to pin a rose on her. I explained that the state reps AND the gov. are Dems and that they raised the tax. She looked pained and then said "But - I'm a Democrat!" I said "So am I." (The fact that I'm a Dem is my ace in the hole in these little discussions).

From 10,000 people, to all the VIP's in this school and a good sampling of current students, too.

Might make them pay some attention.

So, if you know a Columbia U grad, alum, or current student, let them and their parents know what kind of institution they're dealing with. This is the same institution that runs the Columbia Journalism School, and which happens to administer the Pulitzer Prize.

Your standard response when getting calls from their alumni department asking for donations or other solicitations should be short, sweet, and to the point.

There's hardly ever a reason to respond to someone saying "Yeah, right... loser," unless that person is offering to cut you in on a fabulous but secretive opportunity to aid his uncle, the crown prince of Nigeria.

There are a couple of odd things about this email, though. I'm sure Shouman, as a poster here, can help me understand them.

First, I'm unclear why he's writing to the Business School at Columbia to demand that they "as journalists" release the tape.

Second, I'm unsure that the Columbia guy's response was necessarily sent to Shouman. Notice which email addresses are redacted.

Third, I take issue with Shouman's insinuation that the people have a 'right' to the videotape. He couches it in language about learning about candidates, but it's clear what he means. To which I say: No. You don't have a 'right' to that tape. Just like many other people don't have 'rights' they claim every day. What you have is a right to cancel your subscription to the LA Times, or to refuse to send your child to Columbia.

And lastly: If the LA Times doesn't truly have a deal in place with their source, they should give up the tape immediately or be punished with widespread subscription cancellations.

If McCain proposed something like this they'd go ape excrement!

re: #244 Cognito

There's hardly ever a reason to respond to someone saying "Yeah, right... loser," unless that person is offering to cut you in on a fabulous but secretive opportunity to aid his uncle, the crown prince of Nigeria.

There are a couple of odd things about this email, though. I'm sure Shouman, as a poster here, can help me understand them.

First, I'm unclear why he's writing to the Business School at Columbia to demand that they "as journalists" release the tape.

Second, I'm unsure that the Columbia guy's response was necessarily sent to Shouman. Notice which email addresses are redacted.

Third, I take issue with Shouman's insinuation that the people have a 'right' to the videotape. He couches it in language about learning about candidates, but it's clear what he means. To which I say: No. You don't have a 'right' to that tape. Just like many other people don't have 'rights' they claim every day. What you have is a right to cancel your subscription to the LA Times, or to refuse to send your child to Columbia.

And lastly: If the LA Times doesn't truly have a deal in place with their source, they should give up the tape immediately or be punished with widespread subscription cancellations.

F*ck you Cognito .... didn't Senator Government say the public had the "right" to see Ryan's divorce papers .....You will always find an excuse ...if Senator Government and his Chicago Thugs had not forced the issue with the divorce papers he would not even be a Senator ....

Comparing a specific city (Parma) and visible 'signs' of support both in 2004 and this year. I know, I know... it's better than a stinkin' poll, however.

Better yet. Imagine if Bush would have proposed this during the 04 election cycle.

I heard he gets ALL the babes.

Hey, just cause they're undecided doesn't mean they're easy.

It's just that "Hey baby, want to have a look at my latest poll?" isn't much of a pick-up line.
