    He fits right in in Congress, don’t let fact confuse your reality.

    What’s next from Tubs, “The civil war was fought to keep football played with an oblong pigskin and not a round ball you kick all over the yard.”

    I guess growing up in Arkansas and a B.S. in physical education can only get you so far…..like maybe as a US Senator.

      People in this country bitch and moan about how awful public schools are at teaching American history. The majority of history teachers in public schools are “Corches”.

        It all starts at home, not the teacher for the most part.

        The biggest difference I see in private versus public school other than it starting at home, is the teacher/student ratio.

            Of course, you got to have something to work with first (genes/desire).

              desire more so than genes. environment trumps genes with education.

                It is highly genetic, desire is driven by this.

                  My quick google scholar seach showed that with higher IQ, the less the environment matters:
                  “Nonshared environmental influences on grades were strong when IQ was low, but decreased across the range of IQ. Shared environmental influences common to age 24 educational attainment and age 17 IQ were strong when IQ was low, but genetic influences common to IQ and education were strong when IQ was high. These results suggest that the causal mechanisms linking educational variables with intelligence differ for people with different levels of intelligence.”
                  Interesting idea.

            I would also say parental engagement is higher in private schools.

          And it’s worse to sleep with your teacher if you are home schooled.

    • When I said we needed a bit more diversity of career backgrounds in Congress I meant “not a supermajority of lawyers, mix in some scientists and doctors” not…former head coaches who won a game 3-2.

    Oh, they are everywhere. Georgia’s own Hank Johnson is not the brightest bulb in the room either. He was concerned that putting additional Marines in Guam could be problematic. In the course of that questioning, Rep. Johnson expressed concern that adding thousands of Marines and their families to Guam might cause that small island to “tip over and capsize”:

    What’s worrisome is TubbO is smarter and better informed than most Americans and many college graduates. It’s appalling but predictable.

      Like people who say the civil war had nothing whatsoever to do with slavery?

      Too bad for those idiots that the secessionists wrote it down in the documents of succession. States rights are prominent. As in, the southern states have the right to keep and maintain slaves. But watch stupid come behind me and provide cover to the confederacy.

      It can’t help itself.

        • Actually, stupid fucks believe bumper sticker history, rather than original sources. I’m not defending anything. I’m simply pointing out the idea of a war being about righteousness vs evil is not just stupid, it’s mind-numbingly stupid.

          But please continue to expound on how raping Southern women and starving Southern children was all about compassion. Bonus points if you can spend more than 12 words on the topic.

          I told you what it would do.

          Preserving slavery was superior to placing genteel southern slave holders at risk to the unfortunate but common ravages of war.

          Did the southern states have the option of simply banning slavery before secession?

          Of course they did.
