“That’s far too pedestrian for me.”
I have pedestrian tastes. That’s why I drank Amstel Light and PBR before I quit drinking.
“Why because you went to college and lived in ENY? PUH-lease. How exactly does this give you a larger perspective than most?”
Well, that’ll get you some points in my book! I’m just saying.
Let me see again how I managed to offend so many people this time.
“Again, the beauty of our social structure is revealed.
No matter how much they may try to create a “dynasty”,
natural social selection brings them back to reality.”
From this statement, I get called
Self-satisfied
Smug
Unaccomplished
Gleefully (ghoulish by implication)
etc.
etc.
So you see folks, why someone like The What was sometimes necessary to bring a dose of reality back.
both cobble and bxgrl turn this political-social statement into an emotional tirade accusing me of denigrating an esteemed family.
Put it this way,
Had I put down the Bush family,
would the response be equally as strident?
“i never got the whole kennedy thing. personally i think they were an ugly lot. not to mention dull as doorknobs. what are they even famous for?!”
Go back to sleep, Rob.
Caroline Kennedy was socialized from childhood to insulate herself from the public eye. She wasn’t wired to be a Senator, she did everything wrong. I am sure she really did not want to be a senator.
“At once,you betray a flawed hubris and a presumptious fallacy of logic.”
Too complicated for Democrats.
i never got the whole kennedy thing. personally i think they were an ugly lot. not to mention dull as doorknobs. what are they even famous for?!

“It’s not smugness cobble,
my personna here on the OT is an exaggerated response to the other posts I see.
Perhaps I enjoy holding a mirror to a society too willing to live with hypocrisy. I don’t pretend to know more than everyone on life, I only claim to have a larger perspective on it than most.”
Grandiose much?
Why because you went to college and lived in ENY? PUH-lease. How exactly does this give you a larger perspective than most? Your arrogance is over-whelming!!!!
Glad to hear, Dona.
