    Maybe it would be an idea if he learnt the meaning of words like "liberalism"?

    Just a thought, like.

    What do you mean exactly?

    I know it's supposed to be a rant, but if you're gonna start making sweeping political statements, it might be an idea to back it up with a few facts. No offence, but that's the poorest rant I've ever read. It's the sort of thing I'd put on an out and out liberal website if I wanted to give the impression of being unbiased.

    Wow, for a second there I thought someone had played ctrl+c, ctrl+v with the Daily Mail.

    Very poor, I'm surprised you are allowing such a political 'rant' without any evidence to back it up.

    No mention of "baa baa black sheep" and "blackboards"? Colour me amazed.

    I recently read an article

    Is there a link to this article?
    I think that teaching us we will succeed no matter what is disgusting and should be stopped.

    Whereas teaching someone that they are not good enough to suceed? Surely he should be arguing for teaching people how to succeed rather than for telling them that they will fail. As he put it, given hard work and effort it is possible to achieve good results...

    But but, if you're nude, where do you put your ipod and copy of the Guardian?

    They cover my particulars. I could do an iPod nano joke here, but it'd be at my own expense, so I won't bother.

    His rant is a testament to the skewed version of the world the media can portray. He's also made the mistake of equating these few one-off cases of lunacy with liberalism. He's angry at the silly things that occasionally go on in the world, nothing more.

    He seems quite angry, as though other people achieveing things in different ways somehow takes value away from what he has achieved in his way.
