    Univ. of New Orleans!

    And I challenge them. I challenge them to the best of my ability and they love when I do. However, I get looked down upon for this, for not agreeing with their views and disruptting class. They never like to see the other side and this stubborn vantage point influences those that sit back and take it in. That just because I'm a 21 yr old student, I must be wrong and the professor is right. That my views are nullified by the professor's.

    I'm saying that its the innocent minds that go there to learn their profession, come out being influenced by the professor's liberal views. They didn't ask or pay for that.

      Cory, good for you but do you have the ability to discuss your points with a professor on a one to one basis? Rather than disrupting the class. That may be a better method.

        Not exactly. I believe it was more like 46% of those who were eligible to vote and actually bothered to do so!! 61% of those who could vote, did vote. And 46% of those voted for McCain (58,343,671) versus the 53% (66,882,230) who voted for Obama.
        Don't get me started

          Bill,

          You obviously missed a word. ABOUT. It means "not exactly". You just crack me up when you do things like that. It really drives home the point about how you guys can only see what you want, and totally miss the substance.

          You guys got what you asked for. Now let's see how it plays out...

            If what's going on in Canada right now is any indication of how extreme "Liberalism" is going to work out at a government level... we shouldn't have to wait too long to find out...

                It is called the parliamentary system...DEMOCRACY. Yes,we can boot the idiots out. You were stuck with the Dubba. Only with a majority government can a Canadian, British, etc. parliament remain in power without the consent of the other parties

                  No I got it, it was hard to get the right tone. Sorry, in my head it was funny, but it definitely got lost in translation.

                  Like the Hertz commercials... Not Exactly". Oh well, like I said, funny inside my head!!

                    Honestly, you think this is because of Obama?? Couldn't have anything to do with the last 8 years of Bush?? Wow??

                          Classic. Everything is either Clinton's fault from 8 years ago, or Obama's fault for being elected 6 weeks ago. Bush? Bush who? All the Demoncrats fault.

                          Simply amazing.

                            No, sometimes it's other corrupt politicians. Like this one:

                            AFP version (google "illinois governor arrested" and it pops up first)

                            Fox version

                              Sadly the truth is that they come in both flavors, corruption and greed knows no party boundaries. And that is the real heart of the issue. The problem is each side tries to pretend it is just the other side which is corrupted. While they focus our attention on their mock outrage at each other we end up the ones who are truly screwed.
