==Smear?==
==Smear?==
Why was my entry on MLK removed as a smear? Even PC-opedia (wikipedia) admits he plagarized parts of his dissertation. His sexual transgressions are no secret and covered in his biography Let the Trumpet Sound by Stephen Oates (p. 265, 283) and its no secret he took most of his ideas from Gandhi and Thoreau, among others. It's all true. -Mike LaTorres

==Grammar lesson==
'''<nowiki>== Superiority Complex ==</nowiki>'''<br>
'''The liberal believes they are superior to others.'''
:One should decide beforehand whether to render this in the singular or in the plural, either:<br>"The liberal believes he is superior..." or <br>"Liberals believe they are..."
:That done, the entirety of the next sentence could be incorporated into the preeceeding:
'''The liberals believe that they are mentally superior to others, claiming the intellectual high ground and warding away challengers with ridicule and other rhetorical devices that serve nothing more than to mock and deride.'''
:The next part is just silly. Democrat is a '''noun''', democratic is an '''adjective'''. Once that fact is accepted then the etymological screed below is seen in a different light.<br>
'''A good example is the classic Democrats versus Democratics statement. Liberal Intellectualism will say that it is not proper to use the sentence with the word Democrats, it must be proper, so it must be Democratics. However, 'Democrats' will suffice rather well and the reader understands regardless. There are many instances where <i>Democratic</i> politicians use the word Democrats. Howard Dean says "Democrats have a lot of work to do among seniors." The nation's liberal newspapers use the word Democrats. Google's spellcheck prefers Democrats. The website for congress is addressed 'democrats.senate.gov' Excuses for insisting are endless and a part of Liberal Intellectualism thinking.'''
Please endeavor to learn and know the basics of the language you are trying to write in before attempting to incorporate your thoughts into cogent arguments. Thank you. [[User talk:MargeryCampbell|Marge]] 16:51, 28 August 2008 (EDT)
