George Carlin:Wake Up America

hes not lying.

I agree, He has the American system figured out to the enth degree. I'd vote him in as president any day, then you'd see some changes. To all that disagree with George, I'm sorry about your low IQ, You just may have to be euthanized,~LOL~.

Do you think he's right about just be happy with what we have? I agree with most of what he said but that.

Is your avatar a picture of Frederick Douglass? Kinda looks like him.

i think the 'be happy with what you have' part is a nod to the idea that the control of the direction of the country and government is way out of the hands of the people. we like to think that if we could just elect this one man...everything would change. i'm afraid we're all in for a let down. but i havn't given up hope yet.

and, um...wasn't frederick douglass a black man?

Yeah, black............Thats Karl Marx

Does George really believe that it is the exclusive fault of the "real owners" that our schools produce functional illiterates? Teachers are simple pawns of the "real owners"???
It's not quite so simple George.

Seems to me that there is plenty of blame to spread around...the NEA comes to mind.
I have always enjoyed Carlin's humor, but in this case his left leaning diatribe falls short of credibility.
Hyperbolic prattling!

George is exactly correct. We are being duped by the controllers of the society. those that can't see this are either one of the controllers, a wannabee, or just plain stupid. Which are you?

George over simplifies the issue....the school system is a joke....but to blame the "real owners" (controllers) exclusively is simply shortsighted and dumb. Like I said, there are many that need to shoulder the blame.
