    Man it explains alot.
    Does it give an explanation as to why some brains make it so difficult for some to spell properly?

    The study, conducted at New York University, suggested that while conservatives are known to be more structured and persistent when making decisions, liberals are more open to new experiences. Researchers have traced these stereotypes to differences in brain activity.
    So, one party can make up their mind, and stick to something, and the other is wishy-washy?

    You're RIGHT, TDM, it DOES explain a lot.

    Lends to the quip: "Liberalism is a mental disorder".

    Conservative: Do it this way. This way works.
    Liberal: In the interest of doing something different, I'm going to do it a DIFFERENT way. I know, I know it works your way, but I like the esteem-boost I get from calling myself 'progressive'. Seriously! I have a LOT to prove! My parents didn't instill me with self-confidence or common sense, so I'm going to do it a way that fails, ONLY because I MUST...BE...DIFFERENT.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    Have a wonderful evening.

    Less time posting; more time taking night classes, please?

    At this point, even if you happen to be right about something (which has yet to happen), nobody is going to give you the time of day, because you post like an illiterate fool.

    Perhaps THAT'S why you don't have a job...the inability to fill out a simple application.

    maybe you people need to realise staying the course is not inherently the right choice.
    Is that like repeatedly making the same claims? Or chanting?
    Like "study after study", or "Bush stole the election", or "Bush lied"?

    What does "espcially" mean and what is an "arguement"?
