  1. What does Bush have to do with this discussion? Are you actually defending Obama by claiming that because Bush did something that it's OK for Obama to do it too? I thought you claimed Bush was a lousy President? Bush started a war, does that make it OK for Obama to start wars, too? More BDS? I'm expecting a nationwide epidemic in the next few months, ending in the early part of November. I think maybe he was questioning where all this indignation was ergarding time off during Bush's term. This would be a better example of hypocrisy than Obama's tax return.
  2. Right, when OJ Simpson tells everybody how to create an decent relationship with your ex-wife, I am sure you will be all ears. Or Madoff's dissertation on business ethics.
  3. Did he advocate people not taking advantage of current tax laws? I am sure Obama is a hypocrite, almost all of us are. But this is a piss poor example.
  4. Isn't that inherent to insurance. The many pay for the few.
  5. Smoked horse meat is very taste, albeit a little salty.
  6. Disputed and there are conflicting reports. That doesn't prove somebody was on his chest beating him. Doesn't even prove anybody was in the vicinity.
  7. Unproven, Possible, but not proven.
  8. Exhibit B, ladies and gentlemen. Hey, it takes a lot of effort to keep those maids on track. And choosing colors and fabrics: we know Mitt, being a guy, can't help her with that. Yup. My grandmother was a stay at home "mother" to 8 children. Never mind that she only saw the children for 1 hour each day, the rest of the time the kids were with the staff. At night bedroom doors were locked to ensure uninterrupted sleep. I'm sure she had a very busy time telling staff what to do though.
  9. Oh goodie, another made up story.....
  10. Oh, goody, another made-up scenario that has nothing to do with the case
  11. Perfect we have our pigoenholes established. Let the games begin.
  12. Lets hope those two Corinthians weren't gay.
  13. Which is what makes this case so interesting. Wonder if a lawyer can jump in here, but in claiming self-defence would Zimemrman have to prove that the initial assualt was unprovoked, or would they only have to prove he was assaulted?
  14. I don't think it is a payout for votes. I think it is an ill conceived solution to institutional racism or bias. Take the Toronto Fire Department for instance. In Toronto roughly 47% of the population identifies themselves as a visible minority. Toronto is extremely multicultural. Yet the far majority of fire fighters are white males. Actually it is quite unusual to see a fire fighter in toronto who is a visible minority, specially in more senior roles. Do I think that forcing them to hire a certain number of visible minorities is the answer? No. However I do think there should be a very thorough review of the TFD hiring practices. There is no doubt in my mind that the department suffers heavily from institutional racism and bias. Liberals at least are trying to solve the problem, ill conceived as it may be. Many conservatives refuse to see there might even be a problem. I find that much more unsettling.
  15. and you can see what's so terrible about that scenario - Dave might be a great guy if you judge his actions throughout his life. He might be responsible, excellent at catching dogs and taking care of the strays..... But if he has a bad name, or his eye color is not acceptable, then he doesn't stand a chance but that's ok - there are entire groups out there with self righteous outrage making sure that these meaningless bias' live on Perception is everything, you life, wealth and happiness depends on it.
  16. Don't blame Ron, blame the Satanic power of evil. Sometimes the force is just too strong.
  17. I was thinking Health-o-phobe.
  18. Just call for Batman and pray he gets there on time.
  19. http://freebeacon.com/hostile-workplace/ So women should be placed in better paying positions regardless of ability? How very Liberal of you. This piece is useless unless it relates to females being paid less than males in equal positions.
  20. Here is your whole post and the quote you replied to. Highlighting is mine: (I am assuming you know that Sybrina Fulton is Martin's mother.)
  21. Of course she has. She is hardly unbiased. Its her son who got shot. I'm sure that when one of your loved ones is killed, you will be very concerned about the fate of the person who pulled the trigger..... Perfect timing Oh I was referring to the special prosecutor Oh And for Trayvon's mother? look 2 posts up thread
