DC Tom Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 here we go again with the all inclusive terms. guess i'm not everyone (everyman?). i think he's quite bright. What's he read? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob's House Posted October 24, 2015 Author Share Posted October 24, 2015 you keep using this inclusive word "people". I submit that there are plenty of specific people that are very well informed on these issues. I'll believe that when I hear one of those people give a plausible explanation of how this is supposed to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdog1960 Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Cut him some slack. He said "issues," not "solutions." because we have seen so many effective solutions from cons. even the great reagan. What's he read? i suspect he's read "everyman". you?

Is everything "left" & "right" to you? Do you not realize that they are all incompetent and full of **** no matter what ideology they pretend to represent?

FireChan Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 here we go again with the all inclusive terms. guess i'm not everyone (everyman http://www.cummingsstudyguides.net/Guides3/Everyman.html - it's a classic!)?. i think he's quite bright. he had the credentials to get in to and graduate from univ of chicago. i don't think he grabbed any coat tails to do that. i'm trying to think of a repug candidate that is brighter. Jeb? Trump? nope and nope. also rans? nope,nope,nope…. oh and i'm wondering where the word bloviating might source to in your post…but not wondering hard. Rand went to medical school. Those credentials are much higher than U of Chicago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdog1960 Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Rand went to medical school. Those credentials are much higher than U of Chicago. me too. sorry, doesn't carry much weight around here. but i graduated undergrad. rand didn't. and that's where many actually learn to think. med school is a very difficult trade school. nonetheless, he's clearly bright albeit misguided.

FireChan Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) me too. sorry, doesn't carry much weight around here. but i graduated undergrad. rand didn't. and that's where many actually learn to think. med school is a very difficult trade school. nonetheless, he's clearly bright albeit misguided. Learn to think about what, exactly? Rand didn't graduate Baylor, so what? He still attended for 3 years. Does the lack of a shiny piece of paper mean he didn't "learn to think?"

Does the lack of a shiny piece of paper mean he didn't "learn to think?" it's pretty curious really. i guess duke didn't require an undergrad degree but that was about the time i was applying. everywhere i applied sure as hell did. and a damn good gpa. kinda makes me wonder…. oh, and learn to think about just about everything. question standard beliefs. learn how to analyze data. learn how to reason. learn how to test hypotheses. learn how to research scholarly journals. stuff like that.

Chef Jim Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 you keep using this inclusive word "people". I submit that there are plenty of specific people that are very well informed on these issues. So are you really usuing these words literally to be all inclusive whenever they are used? This is the argument you're going to make? So when someone says people drive me crazy or people are stupid do you take that to mean every person on the planet or just in these cases to make a very stupid point? i hope you're consistent with this but I highly doubt it.
