What question is that again?
What answer am I not recognizing?
Oh ferchrissakes. No. Give me a scolding, if you must, and you probably must because that’s what you do as sure as the pigeon pecks the pellet button, for not dancing to your stupid Million Questions tune, but I ain’t gonna dance. If you’re genuinely curious about which questions he’s answered, rereading the thread for meaning is the best way for you to find the answer; I ain’t gonna read the thread for you.
Dummi, you said the same thing in your last post to this person almost to the word. And it wasn’t even an actual point, but just more name calling. You sure you’re not a bot?
At long last, can you think of anything at all to say except the tired “snowflake” thing, which is already staler than white dogshit even among alt-righties and fascists. And they don’t mind being dogshit, as long as it’s white. Get a brain fool.
If you pump out a million written things, you’re going to make a few typos.
DeVos’s percentage is way above what a literate person should be able to get it down to, though. Her Tweet at Trump’s inauguration had at lest three, and arguably four, grammatical errors in it. You only get 140 characters in a Tweet, so that’s something of an accomplishment.
A typo is when your finger aims for the correct key on the keyboard, but actually hits the wrong key. “DiBois” or DyBois" would be typos for “DuBois.” The tweet at issue spelled it “DeBois,” which is a spelling mistake borne of ignorance - unless perhaps the writer was suffering a grand mal seizure at the time.
Is “Lybia” a typo?
Ummmm…clearly. The i and the y were switched. Did you really need this explained to you?
From Machine Elf above: “A typo is when your finger aims for the correct key on the keyboard, but actually hits the wrong key.”
Interesting how when whoever typed that word aimed for “y”, he hit “i”, then when he aimed for “i” he hit “y”. I guess there is “cross-fingered” just like there is “cross-eyed”.
Hitting letters out of sequenec is so common that I did it in this sentence.
Do you genuinely not know this?
Who ties your shoes for you?
Loafers.
And a bike helmet.
I was using the term “typo” to mean “any small error of spelling or punctuation made while typing something,” but I’m glad progressive and Trumpist posters have found common ground on nitpicking this.
Of course “DeBois” is a trivial mistake. So is “Lybia”. Whether it is a “typo” or a “misspelling” is not material as to the triviality.
(LOL, see The Independent | Latest news and features from US, UK and worldwide )
The Department of Education called it a typo, too; I’m just not inclined to give them any cover. I’d have a little more respect for them if they owned it by admitting it was a spelling error. Calling it a typo is a bit like saying “the gun went off” instead of “I pulled the trigger when I shouldn’t have.”
So why didn’t John McCain vote against De Vos. Remember his (justified) opposition to Colleen Bell?
You know who else voted against Bell? Lamar Alexander, Mitch McConnell. So it is more important to have a qualified Ambassador to Hungary than Secretary of Education.
and FTR Susan Collins voted no and Lisa Murkowski abstained on Bell.

Well, this one isn’t a joke.
Quote:
A Department of Education website explaining the rights of students under the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act has vanished. That’s the same law that confounded new Education Secretary Betsy DeVos during her confirmation hearings.
DeVos dodged questioning about the law last month, insisting it was up to individual states on whether to grant disabled students their educational rights, even though it’s a federal law that applies across the nation.
New U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions has also blasted the act for its “special treatment of certain children,” blaming it for the “acceleration in the decline of civility and discipline in classrooms across America.”
The website appeared to stop working shortly before DeVos took office, the Seattle Post Intelligencer reported.
The Department of Education site now attributes the broken link to “technical difficulties” and instead sends people to the 159-page text of the very technical, complicated statute. The department site also lists available special education programs…

It is a real problem and you’re right, it’s no joke.
The quote from Sessions is fucking ridiculous. Absolute horseshit.
Jesus Christ. My calling it a typo was equivalent to minimizing murder? What have I done?
Go directly to jail. Do not pass Go, do not collect $200.
The twitter handle is @usedgov?
Used the government to advance her religious agenda?
I’m sure there are much better jokes to be made, and i know it’s us ed gov, but i can only see used gov and think " what is she using the government for?"
And yes i also know she has her own handle too.
If the content of my post was repetitive it is only because it bears repeating. Shitty logic, lies and bad arguments are still shitty logic, lies and bad arguments even if your side does it.
