Is my absence the last two days the reason my ears were burning? It might come as a surprise, but my life doesn’t revolve around sitting in front of a computer screen all day. I have things to do and places to go.

It makes me a little sad to see how you people, rightwingers that you are, view the rest of us, who live in your neighborhoods and partronize your businesses.

Rex, you are the saddest puppy in this whole litter! The examples you used have been around for over a year. We know that there are exceptions to the norm, always. For all you know, that 51-year old wunderkind might have several college degrees. There aren’t many public safety workers who get hired with GED’s, only, and frankly, I don’t know any. The youngest retiree from my former workplace was 53 with 35 years, service credit–he is one of those exceptions.

I wonder, Rex–are you using your calculator to figure out how many non-profit, 15 million dollar-income years, are going into Meg Whitman’s billion-dollar kitty, over the remainder of her lifetime. Let’s lay off those billionaires, now, when there are your own demographic cohorts to pick on.

Poor Rex, you went to college and became a teacher, and instead of using your education to do work that is meaningful to you, you sit around and hate on those who chose a different route.

And the fact that you have lived a good life, ftheunions, is the reason you hate people who worked in the public sector? Wow! I’m sorry for your children, that they are being indoctrinated with your type of hatrid.

The disdain that you Rex, and BobA hold for Ted says a lot more about you than it does about him. He is very learned and knowlegable from my standpoint. I imagine that he was either a lawyer, or an undercover PS worker. But, I have never met him–he could be a 21-year old girl, for all I know.

I’m hoping for better days for all of us, this year.

I recognize that with every new government employee, there is a contraction, however small, of our liberties. If you don’t recognize this then you don’t understand or are part of the government waste.

Steely Ted,
No sour grapes here! In fact, I think I lead a pretty good life. And that’s precisely why I have such disdain for the public sector. You see, I recognize that my pretty good life will be much more difficult to achieve for my kids and, really, any kids today. I recognize that with every new government employee, there is a contraction, however small, of our liberties. If you don’t recognize this then you don’t understand or are part of the government waste.

Rex:

Somehow I don’t see Seesaw (no pun intended!) as the type who runs away. Besides, she’s smarter than Teddy with half her brain tied behind her back!
LOL….Teddy is a dork. But seesaw wanted examples, I just gave them to her and NOW she is MIA.

The truth is, the way they want everything to be run, America will go deep into debt, the rich will practically have their money taken from them and then be repettitively raped and thrown in to jail for being rich, the 99% of America won’t be taxed, college will be free unless you’re from the “one percent”, and the borders will be open with a big sign that says “come on in!”

You’re right so let me state my point more subjectively. The closer one is to the New York Boston corridor, the more likely one is to be a flaming liberal. Especially if said person works for the federal government.

I’m a California native who has traveled extensively and I can tell. And ignoring their northeast accent, I can tell the difference between an eastern conservative and a western conservative.

Eastern conservatives usually display liberal sensibilities in the way they think which is easy to detect when one understands the differences in the way liberals and conservatives think. It has much to do with being saturated in liberal ideology in their formative years.

They epitomize the saying: what is a conservative? A liberal who got mugged by reality.
