There is some jaw dropping stuff there, including the frequent use of the word "hu" instead of he or she.

That is just the nature of the institution. It is always about my work, my career, my this and that. <br /><br />Something else though. Right wing people who complain about left wing people, but fail to bring arguments are dangerous. Win an argument for once, based on reasoning instead of shouting. "Hell no you can't" is not an argument. Reminding people that Reagan exploded the budget deficit is a fact. Can we keep to the facts, instead of demagogy?Niels Teunishttp://nielsteunis.comnoreply@blogger.com
