My dearest bodypilot90, I think you nailed it. But don't you know that democrats aren't REQUIRED to have a plan other than tax the hell out of everyone? Well....everyone who achieves. All they do is attack attack attack attack attack, race-bait, play on the jealosy of small minded people with their class warfare garbage, and whine. It's not about having a plan to them - it's about getting into office to promote their left-wing social agenda! I will say this - Kerry gave some inkling of a plan in one of the debates. It was totally stupid and bereft of any semblance of logic, but a plan he did hint at. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

Is it just me, or is TX Mike a catalyst for alcoholism? Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

I sense a distinct lack of knowledge concerning deficits here on both the left and the right. Not just this thread, but dz.com as a whole. Perhaps I am incorrect, but the context of several posts in the political realms leads me to this conclusion. If anyone hasn't done so, I highly suggest they review the Bureau of Public Debt's website http://www.publicdebt.treas.gov/ a bit. You'll be surprised at what you find regarding the debts makeup, the increase of the debt in our 'surplus' years, etc. It's a larger problem than many realize.

I disagree. Tax returns are an ideal method with which to do so - no race involved. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

Hi Bill & SkyDekker

There is no thought process involved here dude. Judging people by their race is wrong. I refuse to do so. Those who choose to do so often cite poverty as a reason. Poverty, as the figures you posted show, knows no racial boundaries, so I consider that entire line of defense stupid. Exactly what thought process is involved? The folks who produced the study you're exhorting about have produced some statistics based upon a random sampling and presented little data other than responses to the questions they asked. Let's perform a hypothetical study. Suppose you sample 1000 people and ask them if they have had an STD. Publish NOTHING about the demographics of your sample pool other than the results. Is your research, based upon a random sample of people, worth anything? can its results be extrapolated and used accurately to describe the general populace? No - it's not worth anything and cannot be used to describe the general populace in any manner. Comeliness, age, religious beliefs, physical infirmities, culture, and a myriad of other variables that exist would skew the data. It is impossible to draw credible conclusions which can be extrapolated to the general populace without the added data for perspective. Such statistics are meaningless. The paper is nice and is of interest, but due to the manner in which its research is presented I have little respect for it.

Not just Fox. Remember - I watch/read CNN as well http://www.cnn.com/2003/ALLPOLITICS/11/05/intelligence.flap/index.html #'s/percentages. It matters not which metric you use. Poverty knows no racial boundaries either way. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

Zac, you should be very scared at this point. I need ninja lessons badly - Gwen is out to kill me. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

Look again. Greater percentages - NOT #'s; raw #'s are given by your link as well. Neither predicates support of any racially discriminatory program. Now affirmative action based upon parents' tax returns would be probably supported by conservatives. The reason the memo is important is due to the committee from which it came. Also, that level of strategy is not 'staffer-level' stuff. And the poll about Fox doesn't impress me in the least with its scientific merit, for the reasons I posted earlier. I think it's shaky at best. Given the right sampling pool, randomly selected, I could produce some pretty skewed stats myself. I just don't trust an RDD sample on such without further statistical breakdown of other data with regards to the sampling pool presented alongside it for perspetive. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

OK. I ws going to stop posting because I need to do something, but because I like you I'll respond. The link reflects what I said - poverty knows no racial boundaries. Poor folks of all races.

Dammit! I initiate this thread with a bi-partisan post, get all sorts of hate mail, and now here you go screwing with me. I don't think school vouchers will solve the violence in the inner cities. I DO think they would help raise the education level of some of our nation's poorest. The NEA is a political spending machine. They also file for tax exempt status under 501C, which is disgusting. As long as they do this, I give their political tools no credibility whenever the 'pay their fair share' mantra is heard WRT taxes. The organization is so left that Stalin is worried they'll overtake him. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

Thanks! Not one equation in that document. Their sampling base was obtained using an RDD -random digit dial - method. Little info on their base was provided. Average education level, news intake, etc. Only party identificaton and news source. Not very credible in my opinion. Random - absolutely. Interesting? Definitely. Firm base upon which to draw conclusions. No. Shaky at best. Thanks for the link. Interesting skim. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
