Don't worry, Burch. You'll gain wisdom as you grow older, as you can obviously tell from the intellectual rigor of our posts.

Since this thread has morphed to the standard political party dichotomy (real or imagined), I'll comment on the "size" of the federal government. El Cap's chart uses the number of federal employees as a proxy for the "size" of the federal government. I question whether the number of direct federal employees really measures the effect of the federal government on day-do-day lives of residents of the United States. How does one measure the effect of the regulations enacted by this Administration? It's been particularly aggressive in interpreting its right to enact change without changes in legislation or court interpretations, and those changes all seem to have the effect of tilting the economic playing field in favor of the largest donors to the Democrats.
BINGO..... Someone gets it.
Nuff said.
Nixon was worse...
Yup, he ended the war. Bastard.

Not retired yet, still work full time. I'm good at time management. :-) Going bouldering in an hour.
"Burch is at a min is too busy positively mentoring (Big Brother) a young man/men on the weekends and NOT thinking about himself. "
Wow, so if he doing that who is posting under his name at the moment?

JE
This is purely partisan spin
What evidence do you have?
And as a rebuttal, ALL the Republican Deregulation favors the Republican Donors, that's the Party Motto
"We take your money and change the Government anyway you want"
Curbing pollution too costly? we will deregulate it for you so you can pollute all you want, just give is 10 million.
And as JEB would say, we court the 1% by giving them free stuff.
AND... The Republicans are all lies about shrinking the Gov., they grow the size of the Gov. the most, then put it on the credit card and refuse to pay it down by raising taxes.

"Bob, if you think it makes any sense, for such a prolific climber and route setter, who lives in a beautiful place that allows all this climbing/birding/etc, to spend as much time as you do "battling" over these moronic threads...I don't know what to tell you."
I do OK Burch, married 40 years, three wonderful kids and two wonderful grandchildren, written 16 different guidebooks and have travelled to numerous countries plus working full time for the last 40 years.
Thanks for the advice, maybe send it to Chief instead or look in the mirror.

That Burch, IS his "full-time" job. Just as Fry's.... Go figure.
Cus as much time that they both spend on this site during "working hours" in the cultivation of political hate, they most assuredly can NOT have any "regular" job. They would be, ah, too busy....Working?
Unless of course they are cheating their employer out and not doing so, working, rather posting here unceasingly on ST and then claiming they are and getting paid for it.

Parsing out "time wasters" on supertopo, per political affiliation, is hilarious!
I think it's pretty clear, that's done on a bipartisan basis.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ And what "political affiliation" would you say I am Contractor?
Hint: I voted for Obama.... Twice.
If I am not mistaken...
MANY that post on this forum do so while at work...
EDIT:
Are you now stating that they are ripping off their employers, LOcker?
Pretty sure that posting on ST during working hours is not in their employment contract.

I gave that up a couple of years ago, LOOcker. Mind boggling to say the least trying to decipher when you were serious or jerking the glue gun peester.

Obama Hope Dope... Nope. I just played into his horseshet twice about what he "promised" he was going to do for us Vets.

Ok guys, go to some- "post a picture" thread and make up!
What a freakin chump! Boner now admits that he was going against his "judgement" just to appease the Tea Party shetbags and torpedo any creds for the other side?!
He repeatedly took big steamy turds in the aisle so no one would cross it. And it took the Pope (not Obama being re-elected) to remind him- You sir, are an arsehole.
There are some really good republicans in congress, but they're basically human shields for the crazies at this point.

Bob D'A,
No doubt you are man of great accomplishment in the field of climbing.
You have mentioned you have a successful marriage of 40 years, worked fulltime 40 years...still working fulltime, great kids, grandchildren, a body that let's you still pull 13's, an author of several guidebooks, probably a bird expert and smart enough not to end up in the military. You have been very smart and fortunate.
Why so worked up over politics?
Are the democrats going to save humanity?
Are the republicans going to destroy humanity?
Now I get on here sometimes cause I like my ideas challenged, but I'm no expert on much. These politicians...we only know what we read.
To me character is the great crises of Washington DC. Anyone who has been in that corrupt cesspool for over 10 years cannot be clean.
Boehner ain't leaving. He'll stay in the same home, move a decimal point over on his salary and die super wealthy, just like the democrats do.
There is a lot of wisdom in Burch's words.
