You should sue the person responsible for your self-education.

Was that a witch doctor?

Sounds like a psycological problem to me (if it was caused by smashing your finger).

I have had some dealings before with Rossignol and the St. Mary's Today.

St. Mary's Today was sent the same press release that went out to all major sources in this area so they know about me.

I have a hunch that the old goat might actually like my candidacy so he is keeping the heat down low. Most campaigns only win in the last few weeks or days before an election and us in the business know that.

If you want to go ahead and press the issue with St. Mary's Today yourself then do feel free to do so. I can handle whatever comes along.

While I fully endorse self-education (I myself am a self-taught computer programmer), I find it disturbing that you would dismiss an academic education as a co-dependent mindset.

You're conflating morality with competence.

I find this disturbing.

The platform talks louder then any experience.

How about a construction worker that thinks dead-beat dads are far more detrimental to society and the future, than a thriving industrial military complex that breathes more life into the local economy than any other single factor in the history of its inception?

Please, oh please discuss it here.


Child support is always a good friendly topic in the forum. I think we would all benefit from a lively discussion on that subject.

Mr. Cusick, do you think you are a good representative of the Democratic party as a whole?

Many Doctor's disagree that the contractures come from drinking. I did use to drink but I stopped virtually dry about 18 years ago when I was about 31 years old. I did not mark the exact date and on New Years I had one glass of champaign. My Dupuytren's Contractures came from a job injury when my small finger on my left hand got caught in a truck railing and crushed the part of the finger. Then the contractures siezed the left and the right hand with contractures in both. One of my Doctors said that the body will be hurt on any one side and it will affect the opposite side in the same fashion and that appears to be why the contractures went to my right hand. I do have a link that explains all about Duyputren's Contractures at the bottom of my Biography page but I do not remember the link now as I write this.

No, never in the military. See the website for reason why child support is unjust.

If you are going to run for public office, these are valid questions. You seem to be very good at skirting around questions. So, you have no college education? And I do agree that self-educationing one's self is important, but it does not take the place of a certified degree, this way there is legitimate proof of an education. As far as your work experience, I feel that is a very important question. An informed voter is a intelligent one, I would never consider voting for any candidate without these basic questions answered.

Self education is a great idea, IF you began life as a genius, like an Einstein.. but alas, if an idiot self educates what do you get?


An idiot that thinks he's educated!

"Virtually Dry" Is that one of the steps in AA.. I'm not sober yet, I'm only at step 6.. Virtually Dry..

Or does it mean you don't drink online, only in reality??

Why didn't he answer my questions?

I will point out that one of our school houses ( at Carver E.) has already caught fire and burned down and yet we still send students to classes in these out side "relocatables" and tell the teachers if they smell smoke then get the students out. Now I am not college educated but I can figure out that we must stop bringing in more people / more students and we must make the schools safe again, BUT - BUT - BUT, all those college educated ones like Hoyer and McKay and Bohanan and more are still bringing in more big business and more people and expanding the Base and yet their college degrees do not tell them that one school house has already burned and we got lucky so stop bringing in more of the problem. Plus we recently had a disease outbreak at the County Detention Center and the overcrowding there made so it could have been worse then it was. We got lucky again. The same is true all over the area. It is those educated with greed that make so their educations are putting us all in real dangers.

It is not being wise to value work experience over the candidate's platform. Plus I did give answers to the questions you posted - self education does count big time, and a construction worker can be wiser then a college educated person. Those are my beliefs.
