Sorry if my post came across as a lecture.
So much to reply to! We’ll try them in order and endeavor to be terse.

Yes, our politician’s failure to give simple and direct answers is frustrating. Many examples abound but Charles Durning in Best Little WH in Texas plays it out nicely… http://videosift.com/video/Best-Little-Whorehouse-in-Texas-Dance-a-little-Sidestep

When I read your first sentence I did not “hear” a voice rising at the end to indicate a question and judged the ? to be a typo. If you remove the ? and read it again, you might agree.

“I guess when people read and become educated they can be viewed as proud of their accomplishments and full of themselves.”
That seems straight forward.
“Those that feel the need to[p] point out this pride are often at the other end of spectrum...under educated and envious of the success of others.”
While not a Merriam-Webster entry, it seems a fairly clear belief/observation. I understood.
As to “over educated”… I think that was your word choice from Page 5, Sep 5, 12 00:43:15.

You don’t think that “You have my full attention now kitty” especially coming at the end a paragraph that says, in effect, justify your stand, isn’t meant to be just a tiny bit intimidating… or a dare maybe? The only time you refer to RixPix by name, you call him kitty. I could probably write a dissertation on that alone.

I thought “interesting” was self-explanatory. RixPix relates a conclusion based on his life experiences. Your assessment based on your experiences seems to be that others (the under educated) have one upped with a more valid “real life experience” that invalidates RixPix’s.

I did clarify the “Do” sentence with “you, I guess” as I wasn’t sure which class you assigned yourself to due to the “one upped” comment. Yes, you do appear to be knowledgeable and literate. Over educated? Perhaps if one was referencing the needs of a specific job, etc.

The next sentence starting with “You”. I saw the quote only as an example of the type of rhetoric that the “under educated” views as being pompous, nerdy, over educated, self- important, etc.
It would have been a better example to contrast it with a sample of the more common vernacular as used by such inspiring speakers as Will Rogers, Martin Luther King and JFK.

As to differing definitions… well, that’s what makes a horse race.

Enough! Any more of this and I’ll be accusing myself of indulging in illusionary acts of… whatever it was you wrote.

Thanks for indulging me. I’m not sure we’ve changed anything but you made me think and I’ve rather enjoyed this too.
