equality

Please elaborate on that? I hear these type of statements everyday but yet they are never backed up with any kind of proof. In the rare times that the speaker is actually questioned, the predictable replies will be "Duh?", or "You don't know what it's like to be a black/minority in America", or references to 50+ years ago and slavery. You never get responses referring to the trillions of dollars spent on Civil Rights, redistribution, Affirmative Action, urban development, minority outreach in every type of job imaginable, etc.

Explain to me how Affirmative Action is not racism?  For the life of me, I cannot see how it isn't.  Talk about inequality!

Exactly as I stated in my post. You won't acknowledge any of the laws and standards enacted in the last 50 years...you have to resort to the slavery argument. So predictable and so tiresome.

And it is also predictable and tiresome that you won't answer the question posed.

I'm sure you'll just convince yourself it's impossible to argue with a board full of Right Wing nutcases. Again, predictable and tiresome.

I guess we'll have to wait for another topic for you to make an asinine comment then run from it. Shouldn't take long.

So you're looking for someone to "care" about you in the fed gov...good luck.

I've been working since i was 12 years old. So the answer to your question is no. I do care about the elderly, kids that are in need and adults that are truly in need. "not just abusing the system".

And im tired of some of the rhetoric that you guys preach all the time also. Maybe you need to learn something about people that are not like you before you make asinine uneducated comments

This is the hidden content, please

This article was written by Paul Waldman, a senior Fellow for Media Matters, an organization that had its beginning with the assistance of the Center for American Progress( a Democratic think tank) and some funding from Moveon.org.  Of course, the aformentioned organizations "certainly" have no political bias associated with them.  Pure and objective as the wind driven snow.

    • Really good hire! As I stated previously on this thread, Mike T has been an essential part of WB’s success the last few years & is a student of the game & I have a ton of respect for how he goes about things as a coach. Big on teaching kids how to do things the right way to prepare them for not only basketball but the game of life. He’ll be fine there, my only question is what kind of talent does WB have returning?  Best thing about this situation for Mike T is WB will be 5A for at least the next 2 years, so he should win a lot of games & have some deep playoff runs.
    • So which coaches kid gets the QB job? Trotter or Barrier
    • A Winnie land owner (and others) sued the State of Texas after they built IH-10 a few feet higher in order to help contain storm flooding. Sure enough a hurricane hit and flooded the land. The storm improvements worked!! Unfortunately the state sacrificed several people’s properties in using the interstate highway as a dam.  Richard DeVillier tried to sue Texas under our laws and Constitution and the US Constitution under the Fifth Amendment “taking clause” (eminent domain). After a favorable ruling in the federal district court on the right to sue Texas directly, the Fifth Circuit Court in New Orleans overturned that ruling and said that the DeVlier had no authority to sue Texas directly.  On Tuesday a unanimous US Supreme Court ruled that DeVillier and others had the right to sue Texas directly under Texas law and under the Fifth Amendment of the US Constitution. The case is now sent back down to the lower court. DeVillier and others have not won their lawsuits as the case has not been decided on its merits at a trial. He still has to go to prove his case. What they did win was a unanimous Supreme Court agreeing that he has the right to bring Texas to trial for taking his property with just compensation.
