And most don't know what brought us to this point, and those that do I hope are reading this and will wipe that smug, granite countertopped smilee off their faces and begin to feed society and it's inhabitants rather than steal their daily bread.

If you volunteer and you get it, yay, funemployment.
If you volunteer and you don't get it (there are too many volunteers), you have identified yourself as someone who wants to leave.
If you don't volunteer and you just get laid off, a package would have been better. #timemagazine

Does anyone see the end to the bloodletting? Which industries are next?
Makes for a Merry-Fucking-Christmas.
Thanks Santa. #timemagazine

Nice straw man though.

Also, while we're on the subject, what do you mean when you say "card-carrying"? I'm sure this is a metaphor, because I know that, as a liberal, I was never issued a card. How many liberal policies do you have to support in order to be a liberal? If you vote for Barack Obama, does that make you a liberal? Also, as a public school teacher, aren't you obligated to teach according to the curriculum standards that your district gives you? Standards which are determined by the district heads, who are themselves elected by the community?
Or are you talking, specifically, about that big survey that they did, where they asked all the public school teachers in America what their political affiliation was? What was that survey called? I don't remember the name of it.
And, I guess, uh...just to be clear, you can't really be using college campuses as an example of brainwashing schoolchildren, right? You weren't really serious about that, right? Because in the first place, by the time you're in college you're supposed to be past the effective age of brainwashing, and in the second place, you're not legally bound to go to a particular college, or even to college in general.
And, just for the sake of argument, I'd like to see the documentation regarding the regular occurrences of discrimination against conservative "thought" (I put that in quotation marks, so that you way you can include not just conservative thought, but stupid conservative shit too, like putting creationism into the science curriculum, if you want). Just to see if I could defend it.

I mean, besides whoever at Gawker draws the short straw and has to parse their latest lame equivocation posing as journalism.

"The creamy notions of postpartisan cooperation — poured abundantly over Obama's presidential campaign a year ago — have curdled into suspicion and feelings of helplessness."

Really? Koyaanisqatsi, for example, was shot with some kind of video camera. And I don't know if I'd call it objective, despite the fact that it's showing images that are clearly really there.
On a vaguely related note, the whole film is now on Youtube, and this blows my mind.
