Just learned that Donald attended military school starting at age 13. The staff there must be so proud.

Wiki also says he spent two years at Fordham before transferring to Wharton. 

Does Wharton have an undergraduate program?  Does not compute.

QuoteThe Wharton School awards Bachelor of Science in Economics degrees at the undergraduate level and Master of Business Administration degrees at the postgraduate level, both of which require the selection of a major. Wharton also offers a Ph.D. program and houses or co-sponsors several diploma programs either alone or in conjunction with the other schools at the university.[5]

Well there you go.  Another academic institution that I'm sure is glowing with pride.

Hey, it's +1 to the number of US presidents they can count.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

We can turn even this idiot into presidential material!

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

In my experience, not much good ever comes from a wall of text in a .jpg format.

Both parties in favor of increased deficits would be so totally ossum.

Republicans are supposed to be the ones against though.

Are tax cuts expensive to administer? Why would they have to be paid for?
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

It all comes back to us, the voters (collectively, of course).  If voters punished parties consistently for talking the talk but not walking the walk on deficits, we'd have two parties in favor of decreased deficits.  However, as long as the voters think it's logical to yo-yo between the two parties regardless of what each of them does, then why should parties give a shit about anything, whether deficits or treason?

Very few people actually care about deficits.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

I do. Oh wait you mean people in DC.

I think he meant the general population, and I agree.

That's why I think having a noticeable deficit hawk constituency used to be a great advantage for the US, because it's such a tempting short-term, banana republic trap to fall into.

If only Paul Tsongas had won the 1992 Democratic Primary.

Yes, well known banana republics such as Norway, the UK, France and Germany. :rolleyes:

They all manage to provide extensive public services without racking up debt like they're Greece.
