Here's the link from Daily Kos:

PRESTO! <br /><br />You've missed the whole point of the story. The progressive left is proud of this behavior.

I googled Daily Kos, as I didn't know it and am still confused why you referenced it. I googled Reid giving the finger and came up with quirky blogs of people doing such acts. However, not any news accounts of an action that would have warranted a report. All leads me to believe it is photoshopped.<br /><br />I don't mean to sound like I'm hitting you with a bible, but I was thinking of 1 Peter 3:8-10 which teaches not repaying insult with insult. That is the message I was referencing to the above parent. Her daughter would have more credence in her political conviction when not stooping to the low level her peers were at (or the Reid photo).

The media and their endless pursuit of making " their man " appear perfect, and their nastiness they show towards opposition, and covering up the scandals involving the current adminstration, Yes the future depends on us being responsible adults, and agreeing to disagree, but the current power base has made it clear with statements, and behavior, that opposition will not be treated kindly, and has even gone so far to say " vote for vengence" POTUS Obama, and " we will know who you are, and make you pay." valerie garrett. So if this is a small example, this is what they are seeing, and apparently this is what America 0r 50% of America agrees with. very sad!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3907677492250052991.post-86914353910321796022012-11-10T11:28:29.636-06:002012-11-10T11:28:29.636-06:00Becky, the photo of Mr. Reid is not photoshopped a...Becky, the photo of Mr. Reid is not photoshopped and was published many places including the Daily Kos, where I'm surprised you did not see it yourself. Mr Reid is simply an example of a political leader who has made a career of saying nasty, false and, lately, illogical things about other people. His unfortunate habit of using his middle finger to make his points may only subconscious, but certainly serves as an example to others of how to behave.Anngiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09442409692601789090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3907677492250052991.post-62393540797849390042012-11-10T11:02:26.830-06:002012-11-10T11:02:26.830-06:00I am so sorry your daughter experienced such disre...I am so sorry your daughter experienced such disrespect. I do hope she was able to model standing your ground for your beliefs in a mature way.<br />I'd keep her away from this site with the photo shopped picture of Harry Reid. It is a very disrespectful image of a political leader whom this site apparently disagrees with. Not a very good way to teach tolerance, which your daughter is trying to understand.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01816040843535148733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3907677492250052991.post-310821847665372502012-11-10T08:33:02.157-06:002012-11-10T08:33:02.157-06:00Where can you start.

My first infraction, as a (wimpy) conservative, was to banish all political information from my car. I teach at an urban university and the few incidents of "keyed" or "tagged" cars with Romney or Akin stickers convinced me that I should avoid the nuisance. There were also incidents of my students (college "men" and "women") being pretty crass as they "discussed" the issues in the election. Frankly, I don't have much hope about impacting such behavior anytime soon. In full view of young people, it seems like anything goes if you are a celebrity or politician (unless you are a conservative): manslaughter, rape, philandering (even "fooling around on" the Secretary of State) and you get to be a bigger celebrity or an elder statesman. I taught high school in the "Lewinsky" era (urban high school) and that made for some insane school events. The progressive movement seems to have gotten all they wanted. catdaddio42https://www.blogger.com/profile/04638862949378906309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3907677492250052991.post-911055031131506832012-11-09T10:58:57.021-06:002012-11-09T10:58:57.021-06:00Stlgretchen..

I am sorry to say it, but this transformation of our children happened long before this year.. when I was a child it started (I am 53 right now).. sociologists, and Psychologists were continually telling parent to let children "express themselves", to not crush their "personal individuality". that corporeal punishment was. "a sign of incompetent parenting". As more and more people turned to this new form of "parenting", we were told that children had to have space to "spread their wings".. at this point the schools started ti fill up with teachers that taught kids to "stand up for themselves", and to not let anyone, "tell them how they should live." I don't say these things as an indictment of all teachers, Psychologists, or Sociologists, but as an indictment of a system that has effectively cowed parents into having little to nothing to do with the way their children are raised.. As a good example of what I am stating, look at the vitriol that is made against home Schooling, the current system sees this as a loss of control... Remember that so true saying, control the Children, and you Control the Future ...

Maybe competition at a younger age is not self esteem crushing but rather character building.Anngiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09442409692601789090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3907677492250052991.post-15575264624922500562012-11-09T07:56:44.726-06:002012-11-09T07:56:44.726-06:00"I am convinced that this type of “targeting”..."I am convinced that this type of “targeting” does nothing but breed hatred, racism, and cultural intolerance. "<br /><br />Yep. Teaching has had two goals in America, the first was to enable students to become self aware, reasoning, self governing persons, pursuing the Good life through virtuous thought & action. The second has been to create skillful calculators and human capital useful for societies needs and aims.<br /><br />The first, tends to result in people who are interested in doing what is right, and being respectful and considerate of others - their sense of power and success follows from how able they were to be, and do, what was right to do.<br /><br />The second tends to result in people who are focused on either working with, or rebelling against, what is required of them by society. Their attitude towards other people depends upon which group the others belong to, and the 'wrong' group is the opposition. Their sense of power and success follows from how much power and success they manage to use their skills to acquire.<br /><br />Those who target youth to promote one thing or another, are not the instigators (except in terms of the vicious circle picking up speed), but the results of one of these educational ideals.<br /><br />If anyone is unsure which has had American in its grips (the classroom) for over a century... see if you can guess which one <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdajUraK0LM" rel="nofollow"> this professor is professing to his students.</a><br /><br />P.S. I wish you'd put the word 'privatization' in scare quotes as well. Although these systems are being promoted as such, any system which combines 'private' money aimed at 'profit', with public funds aligned with the furtherance of government rules, regulations and power, is not concerned with Privatization, but with spreading the wealth around, by other means. <br /><br />Similarly with their supposed pursuit of 'profit'.
