It appears as though he agrees with you in silent majority fashion.

He was really bright. I dont know where he ended up, but I do know he is probably at the top by now. He did it with ability.

I dont know who you are refering, but it sounds like some whites also get an unfair hand up. That stinks in my nose just as bad. Was it George Dubya ? He cant have been a dummy, didn't he get to fly navy ? quote: ORIGINAL: rulemylife quote: ORIGINAL: splorff When I need to fly, get my teeth fixed, have a kids appendix taken out, or get anyone of thousands of other things done, I want a fully competent person to give the job too, especially say, where surgery and medicine are concerned. I want to know the physician got A grades at infant school, and again at middle school. I want to know also that he got a first, or at least a 1:2 at university, and that he has good aptitude for his field. I want to know his IQ is way above normal. I want the best in clinical excellence, not just for me, but for all of us. I do not want some AA dreamer behind the scalpel, simply because his hide is a pleasing shade to liberal enablers. I have read of AAA pupils denied access to med school, to make way for CDD pupils, where the AAA pupils were denied this because their hides were white. The CDD pupils were accepted because their hides were brown. This had pleased the liberal selectors. If anyone thinks that this is progress, then they really must be the deluded fools I think they are. Positive discrimination is foolish and dangerous. Descrimination based on ability is not only acceptable, but necessary for the common good. If those with dark hides do less well against those with pale and fawn skin then so be it. Clearly others are more worth candidates. This is not an example of racism. This is an example of selecting the most able. Sits back quietly drumming his fingers, awaiting to hear the ridiculous charges of - Racist, nazi, bigot etc etc Would that be anything like a certain former President getting a legacy admission to Yale despite his subpar grades? But hey, that Presidency thing is no big deal. A child could do it. Hell, an overgrown child did do it.

No, that was image on TV. Hipshooter was the navy pilot. As was W's dad. He got into the Texas Air National Guard in front of about 160 people (no stats on who was black, white, green, grey and so on in that list) as a draft dodge outta Viet Nam as a favor to his connected dad. Privilege? Sure. Hey, all Colin Powells kid got for a bone, was head of FCC. Thats how them white folk will do you.

A spoiled child who did not have the credentials to be admitted into Yale or Harvard but nevertheless was because of his family name. A spoiled child who became the Decider without having a clue what he was doing. A spoiled child who sank this country into the worst recession since the Great Depression. A spolied child who used Daddy's connections to avoid Vietnam yet involved us in two wars.

If you're going down that road, the case has been made that W was our first afirmative action president.

Were you not just recently telling us of how you fired employees because they voted for someone you disliked. And you want to talk to me about maturity?
