Why do the Republicans get so many votes??? I am flummoxed.
MrScorpio
(73,631 posts)Too many people like being lied to and the Republicans are expert liars.
When people accept lies, they'll accept anything. That's makes it so very hard to admit that they could be wrong.
It's much easier to believe in more lies.

(12,008 posts)So, if I'm working from an early classical source, like Haydn, and it asks for oboes and english Horns at different times (but hardly ever english horns), is it ok for me to sometimes substitute one for another if otherwise doing so would require having two english horn players just sitting around doing nothing for the most part?
I guess I could make this decision myself if I knew more about the period instruments. How different were 18th century double reed instruments from those we have now?
MrScorpio
(73,631 posts)Why be overly complicated, when you can do a remix instead?

(15,540 posts)why did so many Democrats, some of whom are my friends and highly educated, vote for Rick Snyder?
MrScorpio
(73,631 posts)There are times when education and politics can't account for simple naiveté.
But then, I'm pretty much of the mind that a lot people WANT to be fooled.
He didn't fool me.

MrScorpio
(73,631 posts)We need to rebuild and reinvest here and the same needs to be done for the rest of America.
In order to do that, we need to have our government get off of it's ass and stop deferring to the corporate elites and monopolists.
