Sounds about right.

Chris Matthews: The worst thing you can say about Democrats now is that they’re “too pure”

“[T]hese guys set too high a standard for public office.”
 
When it comes to our kids, we seem totally lost. It’s not just that millennials tend to be these narcissistic, overly sensitive, entitled kids who are unable to cope with the realities of life, it’s that we’re the ones enabling this dreary, flaccid, cultural malaise.

So far this year on college campuses, we’ve seen the banning of phrases like “land of opportunity” because they might be offensive; the removal of the American flag from “safe zones” because it endorses American superiority; and the canceling of screenings of “American Sniper” for fear of offending Muslim students. Teachers are even afraid to give low grades because of their students’ emotional fragility.




What kind of adults are we raising them to be? Look no further than the advice the New York Times recently prescribed for being a modern man, which included such absurdities as owning a melon baller and a shoe horn, while sanctimoniously dismissing guns. And the advice that young woman are getting from a media enamored by social justice warriors is even worse – politically correct, unrealistic and even dangerous.

Since I wrote a book about deviance and debauchery on Wall Street that included anecdotes about the celebrated misogyny and objectification of women in the workplace, I get snidely asked all the time, “What are you going to say to your daughter?”


So now that I have a daughter, here’s my advice for her:


  1. Stand up straight.
  2. Know how to change a tire, but whenever possible, let a man to do it for you.
  3. Your physical appearance matters. That’s the world we live in, and it’s also how we’re wired.
  4. Inner beauty — intelligence, personality, confidence and a sense of humor — becomes more important as you get older. Wits never sag.
  5. You are more beautiful than you will ever give yourself credit for.
  6. It’s my job to keep you safe. That’s why it’s also my job to teach you how to use a gun.
  7. Take good care of your skin.
  8. Don’t worry about dieting. Eat healthy, exercise, drink in moderation and everything will fall into place.
  9. Gender is not a social construct. Embrace the differences between men and women.
  10. Read more. It allows you to borrow someone else’s brain.
  11. It’s safe to assume that almost every guy you meet wants to sleep with you.
  12. If anyone says it’s OK to be fat, they’re lying to you.
  13. Let him pay for dinner most of the time.
  14. Just because you can fit into that tiny dress doesn’t mean you should wear it.
  15. Don’t sleep around.
  16. Play sports. You’ll probably run, throw and fight like a girl, but that’s magnificent.
  17. Money is important. It won’t make you happy, but it solves many of the problems that will make you unhappy.
  18. You will regret getting a tattoo.
  19. If you are blessed with the gift of being able to create and shape a life — embrace it. You’ll probably find it more rewarding than any career.
  20. You have all the power over boys. Let them cherish and revere you.
  21. Ignore the boos; they usually come from the cheap seats.
  22. Don’t try to party like one of the guys. You don’t metabolize alcohol at the same rate, and that’s how bad things can happen.
  23. Success is doing whatever it is that you love, and doing it well. But… (see No. 17.)
  24. Just because your brother might go on spring break with his friends doesn’t mean you can. (See Nos. 6, 9, 11, 22.)
  25. Finally, remember that rules are for the obedience of fools and the guidance of a smart, strong woman.

Although accepted by some grammar professionals, your usage of the word in red shows your
lack of grammar skills. It stands to reason that you a Democratic shill would become unhinged
and resort to that type of usage.

Carry on Schiff Lover.
