The ONE is a gracious god

[Tarheel]

I make a point to avoid The ONE's messianic rallies that are broadcast but did any of you X'ers see this fucking moron ONE worshiper at that rally in Ft. Myers, Fl. yesterday?  I'd say that I was shocked but I think this is really what his followers (read as "obsequious sycophants") think of him I suspect!

Let's just drop all fucking pretense of his humanity and build a temple for The ONE...he probably shits marble anyway (to take a cue from "Amadeus"); this video is about a minute and a half long, well worth watching just to see this student's reaction to being called on by The ONE to ask a question in his presence:




Just for Kaos, this is an example of "Nipple Economics" in action.

I'm not even gonna touch the obvious portion of this. 

I realize I am an old fuddy duddy now but c'mon chief.  You are talking to the President of the United States (like it or not) and you can't at least come up with a pair of slacks and a collared shirt? Really? Well tell you what.  When you start contributing to the economy you can have a voice in it.

I didn't watch his speech on TV the other night.  Instead I watched some NCIS that I had recorded.  I read bits and pieces of it on the web the next day.  I just can't stand to hear his voice.  It was like it was when Clinton was in office, it makes me sick and I can't change the channel fast enough.  I did watch this for the sake of the post.

It still amazes me that people have this "Jesus" complex of him. Dude had to have pissed himself.  Trust me, there are some here at work that guzzled up the kool-aid and are just in awe of him.  The libtards will turn on the tv and turn it up so loud they can hear him in their cubes. It is annoying as hell.

I was watching the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show if that tells you anything about my viewing priorities when it comes to The ONE versus anything else. 

Of course writing that sounds like I'm being disrespectful to dogs when the opposite is true.

There IS a fucking pathway, Obama.  He's ALREADY in college.  Why not tell that dickcheese to keep studying hard and working hard at Mickey-D's so that when he gets his degree, he'll be able to apply for a job?  Why spin your answer to sound like you're going to pave the way for this kid's success?  Why make it easier? 

Working hard to achieve something that's difficult is what separates the top from the bottom.

Do your students have as hard a time grasping that concept as mine do?

I guess that this entitlement mentality doesn't surprise me at all anymore.  What does surprise me is the speed we as a nation went from the Greatest Generation to the entitlement generation.

C'mon Sani...it was a MLK Jr./Obama combo T-shirt.  This IS and WILL BE the apparel of choice for the next four eight years, so go ahead and get yours now before our economy collapses and you'll be forced to pay double for one down the road.  You fucking racist, you.

I agree.  And what really pisses me off is when I hear stuff about the unemployment rate, and how I'm "lucky" to have a job.  No.  I have a job because I bust my ass when I work.  I have a job because my clients know that if they give me an assignment, I'll fucking get it done.  I have a job because if I see my technical skills could be improved, I buy a book and learn a new skill.  That's not luck.

How dare you improve yourself and not the collective.  Time for a trip to the re-education camp.

It's either luck or greed with Democrats dumbasses.  You're greedy for wanting to improve your skills and improve your lot in life, and you're lucky because you know how to read, you can afford to purchase a book, blah, blah, blah...  Fuck 'em...  It's time for another revolution.

Yes. 

Some of it is just kids being kids.  High school boys are concerned about pussy and girls are concerned about social status, jolly rangers, bubbles or whatever the hell else they think about. 

But they definitely don't understand that life is a competition.  Those who are the most competitive will often be the most successful.  My students expect their half assed work to be given the same grade as the good work. 

For example, I showed my students a picture of a nasty great white shark with its mouth open and its teeth exposed.  I asked for a poem that described the image of the shark in a new way.  I had a girl turn in a poem that was 14 lines long, rhymed, made excellent use of alliteration, included figures of speech, AND had a point.  She got full credit.  One kid turned in this:

"The shark is scary.
I think he's hungry.
The shark is scary." 

He seriously couldn't understand why I gave him a zero on the assignment.  He threw a hissy fit and said I was being unfair.  For some reason, he thought because he completed A poem that it should be counted as a great poem. 

Something's going on in elementary school.  I sure as hell don't do anything to promote this kind of thinking.  I wonder where it starts.

Well...I suppose with a little more work it could be considered haiku.

It'd still be a bad haiku.

Why are you trying to fail Tarheel's son?

Why are you trying to fail Tarheel's son? 

Obviously I need to have a meeting with the Principal; my mixed-race child is a lot more eruditer than that.
