Although the women of the United States are confined within the narrow circle of domestic life, and their situation is, in some respects, one of extreme dependence, I have nowhere seen woman occupying a loftier position; and if I were asked... in which I have spoken of so many important things done by Americans, to what the singular prosperity and growing strength of that people ought mainly to be attributed, I should reply, To the superiority of their women.

  1. I earlier put the thought out that I should not put what I know in print.
    But, haha there goes the but, but, Hillary signed the Small Arms Treaty -The United Nations one, you know the bull pen that corrals mostly Muslims. They who would like nothing better than to disarm the USA Citizens. So, the Senate would rather not take the heat for Ratifying such a UN-Constitutional wrath upon the people.
    Inters Senator Feinstein to try and pass a Ban On Small Assault Arms - you know, just as the Dems have for years, a little jab at dismantling the Constitution under the peoples nose step by step; not one fell swoop like the UN Treaty.
    Now we know why such was used at the tragic event.

  2. I find it hilarious that people here call the Heritage Foundation and Michelle Rhee leftists. When in fact, the left wants nothing to do with either one of them. Seriously, this is funny. Michelle may call herself a Progressive but real Progressives hate her and her policies. That's the fact of it.

  3. Certainly not nearly as hilarious as your compelling desire to comment against evidence that Iserbyt cites concerning operant conditioning to include change agents and illusions of school choice which are all part of Rhee's resume.

    How is that any different than the majority of conservatives hating Ron Paul and his policies who would have done much, much more to further their ideals and agenda than all the other idiots they tried to get elected who merely call themselves conservatives?

    You're funny. xD

    1. LMAO, Frank, no where in my post did I say anything about operant conditioning. I find it hilarious that you read something that wasn't there. Rhee is no friend of the left. She's the opposite of any educational model that the left or even teachers or teacher's unions have been advocating. She's corporate. Leftists do not like corporate models. The Heritage Foundation is corporate. Leftists are not pro corporate and never have been throughout history of the left. EVER. Rhee and Heritage advocate the corporate model which is predicated on the Skinner behaviouralist model. This is true in much of advertising. You can even trace behavioralism to the American home and the practice of handing out kids allowances. Corporations want nothing more than automatons working in their grey cubicles not questioning or putting up a fuss on how they are treated. Ever work on an assembly line? I have. It's the same treatment. This is called right wing fascism because it is controlled by corporations. Which also control your government and it's policies. It also controls both parties including the Tea Party in the GOP.

    2. You appear to be a proponent of union fascism. At least you appear to understand that the fascist element is rampant in both parties. There's hope for you yet. Stick around.

      Just start thinking of corporations, the government, unions, the mafia, drug syndicates as the same thing, gangs. They're all simply gangs. Rhee simply fought off one gang to replace it with another, but the end goals remain the same, drive a wedge between children and parents and extolling the virtues of diversity and independent thinking by demanding conformity. You will be assimilated.

    3. I've known there has been fascism in both parties. Unions are the opposite of fascism. That said, many heads of unions have been bought off by the corporations they work for. This happened in the machine shop my mom worked for. Unions are not gangs. They are the workers. Both my parents were union members and neither one of them were part of a gang. That is so insulting to call someone who works hard all their life and then turn your back on them to imply they are criminals. There are no wedges driven through parents and children that weren't already there through the dynamics of the family in the first place. The corporations want you to assimilate. They are the ones in power making the decisions, not the unions who comprise of less than 7% of today's workers.

    4. That is I've known there has been fascism in both parties since Nixon was in power.

    5. Excuse me? Sure some of the small local unions do help with their workers best interest in mind, but the big unions are nothing but gangs, with the biggest notoriously run by some of the biggest criminal gang families. Their goals are the same, maximize their take of the loot from your mom and pop workers. Unless your mom and pop were employed by the union itself and an integral part of the gang, they were just the sheep from which these vampires suck their blood. They're organized just like the corporations that you appear to hate so much with the bulk of the loot going to the few in charge.

      And the union officials all fight amongst each other to maintain control of their turf, like petty drug dealers fight over a street corner. I worked for a shop where several tried to bring in the Teamsters local 560, in awe of the big name of of the day, Tony Provenzano. They were only too happy to give a look until they found out it was a small shop and they would only pick up dues from a dozen people or so, they kicked the table scraps to a much smaller and much less powerful local because it wasn't worth their time.

      I was subjected to a few of the thug tactics perpetrated by SEIU that union bosses like Dave Regan incited against healthcare workers in California to influence their vote between choosing SEIU or NUHW to represent them. Of course that fight was over some 90,000 dues paying workers. Look it up on youtube for it's full of examples of SEIU thuggery in that battle and then come back and tell me how insulted you are. They're fascists, and they don't care about your mom and dad except if they can convince them to help out with their thuggery over fellow workers.

    6. Those unions you are talking about that loot the mom and pop workers are the ones in bed with the corporation that the workers work for. Yeah, I agree, they are vampires. Not all unions are this way.
      LOL, as far as the SEIU is concerned, my husband belongs to that union and is a public service worker. They do nothing to protect his wages or his job. They aren't even preventing lay offs of much needed health care workers at a time when there are shortages. The teacher's unions doesn't do any of this either. That's the myth about teachers unions today. They don't protect the teacher, teacher aides or other workers belonging to that union today. Yet teachers get blamed for everything wrong in this country. Both the left and the right thinks the unions do protect them including the bad teachers. It's a myth. The administrators (once again corporate controlled even in public schools) in the education system run the schools; not the teachers, not the unions. Even though the unions capitulate to the administrators on almost every decision. It's a joke.

    7. The problem is that we need strong unions but ones that actually stand up for the workers they represent. We don't have that. And you can bet your bottom dollar we don't have any representation in D.C since both parties are puppets to Wall Street.

    8. Here's an article that proves your and my point.

  4. Oh, and our friend, TMOT, has another drive time up where he adds some incite on this issue, My Dependent Independent Daughter, educational conditioning to further separate our kids from parents.

    1. This man's rant is misdirected. His beef should be with his daughter. The school is acknowledging the privacy of the student, who is of adult age. She has adult rights to privacy including grades. Yet she is dependent on dad for financial help to pay for tuition. His rant has nothing to do with education itself. He's only exposed his lack of reasoning and critical thinking on the matter. Ranting against the democrats and the so called liberals rather than reading about the policies of the school before his kid enters the school. Faulty thinking on his part. Personal responsibility starts at home.

  5. Thanks for keeping the conversation going while I've been feeling under the weather
    Leftists are most indeedy pro corporate - just look at who they get donations from. It's beyond naive to think that corporations don't fund most of liberalism in this country because it increases the collectivism they so desire
    The unions were bought off a long time ago by the big money. We do need unions to stand up to the big money, but it's a slimey, sneaky creature to hunt, and if you're not careful, you'll wind up doing what it wants unwittingly.

  6. Oh yes, liberals are most certainly pro-corporate. I agree. True leftists are not. There are no true leftists in office. Bernie Sanders come the closest.

    1. Leftists can't get elected because they are not pro-corporate. That is what the difference is between a liberal and a leftist. Obama is a liberal.
