    Which is quite amazing considering the fact that everyone else fell asleep within two minutes. Real endurance is required to last any longer than that listening to some politicians expel hot air.

    Love the way one radio personality refers to that hot air as “bovine fertiliser”.

    Also forgot to mention,in addition to some politicians, all right-wing Fox News types and pundits (Rush, go to the head of the class). My B.S. detector reading goes off the scale. MSNBC is the most effective antidote to this contamination of the airwaves.Interesting to note that a recently-released study conducted by Fairleigh Dickinson University revealed that those who watch Fox News know considerably less about the news than those who watch no news at all.

    Webster’s dictionary-liberal-generous; ample; profuse; favorable to reform or progress; not too literal or strict; free; one who advocates great political freedom.

    socialism-

    a theory of social organisation aiming at co-operative action and community of property. (Jesus?)

    Capitalists hate that last notion, but it was given on the highest authority.

    Eugene V. Debs said it best “Jesus was the greatest socialist the world has ever known”.

    That’s why the elites of his time had to do away with him.

    @dfowensby@carlyle620@gmartin997Thanks for the input. Great to know that liberalism is not such a dirty word after all.

    Why are they boring? Because they have no substance, no meaning. If they did, they could be held accountable to concrete promises which they never intended to keep. So, it’s best to obfuscate.
