		<description>REALITY: USING THE “L” WORD
Many select words have been used to describe the modern democrat. Some words are “liberal” and “progressive”. They are, of course, really secular socialists. They vote as secular socialists. They support secular and socialist positions year after year after year.
I have always maintained that secular socialism is a very “hard sell” to any thinking logical voter. So what is the modern democrat salesperson to do? The way to “get around” exposing the secular socialism principles its necessary to avoid mentioning them. The modern liberal does this various ways.
The most common “delivery systems” for secular socialism are crisis creation, distortion, opponent smears and lying. The most important of these is the bold serial lie. It works a surprising percentage of the time because its so darn confidently given, so darn boldly expressed or so darn sincerely repeated (and echoed by the lapdog media) by modern democrats that all common sense analysis leaves the listener.
Today Rush “took off the gloves” and said this a couple dozen times. Liberals (as he calls them) lie daily because its the only way to promote their agenda…has been his synopsis for years.
Think about how many bold serial echoed democrat lies you have heard just in since June 2008. Now think about the media “fact checking” percentages. Think about the arrogant refusals to answer, to debate, to accept responsibility, to face a microphone.
Point 1: Its way past time for America to realize that the secular socialists are to be fact-checked daily if not hourly before you ever consider supporting these liars.
Point 2: The lying is of zero concern to the modern democrat because they have NO ethical or political boundaries (conscience).
Hence answering voters respectfully, being transparent as promised or always low-balling new program costs by 300-900% matters not.
Its about democrat power, its about democrat control, its about their political religion….secular socialism.
Simply allow these two points to light your path to daily truth.

		<description>Liberals must lie because liberalism is a grotesque deception that cannot withstand the light of scrutiny.Unmasked,  liberals are alien to everything American and would likely be unable to be elected in the bluest of the blue states.</description>

Tiresome game, very childish.  In reality, nothing more than penny ante liars and cowards.</description>

		<description>Are you kidding? Whatever it is, it is emphatically not the babes. C&#039;mon. We have Mary Catherine Ham, Michelle Malkin, Laura Ingraham, etc. They have Rachel Maddow.

No, it&#039;s not the babes.</description>

		<description>in subject matter and then a one to two year pedagogy curriculum on top of it to get a teaching certificate.  That&#039;s a response to the fact that in many cases at the high school level, the kids really were smarter and better educated than the teachers.  Here in AK, they call it a Masters of Art in Teaching or MAT program.  All the people with BAs in Education are grandfathered in though.</description>

		<description>If you look at the curriculum in the universities today, you have to have an education degree to be a teacher with a focus in (fill in the blank) and that degree is made up almost entirely of education course with a scattering of coursework in the subject matter one will use to educate young minds. 

I seriously thought about getting such a degree and it was a real turnoff for me, especially considering I had enough science courses already to fill the requirements for the degree.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m with you, I always believed we&#039;re the party of the first of the two.  We&#039;ve believed in the stewardship thing because of how we were taught and it&#039;s just right.

I do take one issue with the recyclng thing.  I live in a condo with both trash and recycle bins and it takes two trucks twice a week spitting out pollution to make it convenient for us to conserve.  Before living in the bay area, I grew up in CA central valley, one of the worst air polluted areas in the U.S.  Much of the smog comes from the bay area.  The consequences of good intentions and all that.</description>
