Wed Mar 25, 2015, 12:10 PM
Mar 2015

and put in place an education system that deliberately "dumbed down" the general populace to the point where the incorrect spellings in the image in your OP are commonplace.

The sheep like stupidity and fawning obeisance to privatized corporate government exhibited by ignorant conservatives is the evidence of Reagan's greatest and deadliest success.

I think by far the most important bill in our whole code is that for the diffusion of knowlege among the people. no other sure foundation can be devised for the preservation of freedom, and happiness...

preach, my dear Sir, a crusade against ignorance; establish & improve the law for educating the common people.

Whenever the people are well-informed, they can be trusted with their own government.

I've made a few stoopid misteaks in the few months since I've been spouting here. I do like "desructive" - sort of a combination of destructive and disruptive.

(I think your post was implicitly enclosed in <sarcasm> tags.)

is easier than fooling the educated. The Repubics have turned ignorance and fear into electoral success. They have perfected the exploitation of fear and ignorance and have the gullible forging the chains for their own enslavement. Immoral but clever.

They truly believe that our fight for civil rights is an infringement on their liberty.

The fact that the sign is wrong from their original intent, yet still correct with respect to their ideology, shows just how much hate resides in their hearts.

Other slogans that would work for them.

Liberty or equal rights?
Liberty or a livable wage?
Liberty or education?
Liberty or your health?

In their mind damn near every move a government can make is an infringement on their liberty.

When I said "their" in my last sentence, I should have written "In the white male conservatives eyes."

Poor taste on my part to not separate the two. The difference is really big. It is the white male conservative point of view. Expanding liberty for women around them is an infringement on their personal liberty, in their eyes.
