Can you just imagine living One Street outside the ,...."Promise Zone?" One street away they're driving Cadillacs and you,...... you'll just have to make due with your 6 year old Chevy! Man, that's going to SUCK for a whole bunch of people! "You believe that shit! My layabout brother-in-law has a new condo and a baby Cadillac!"

What fun is dog whistling if you then look around guiltily and jam your hands in your pockets and say "Aw shucks that wasn't what I meant!"

What fun is dog whistling if you then look around guiltily and jam your hands in your pockets and say "Aw shucks that wasn't what I meant!" Well, looks like Adam Smith of Chic-fil-a fame stopped by looking for his "free" glass of ice water. You are aware that no-one can actually "hear" a dog whistle, correct? ("Racist Dog Whistling?) lol (your sentance structure sounds oddly familiar) So, someone criticies a destined to failure "program" coming from President Pantload, arguably the worst president this country has had to endure using the words,..."inner city" and "midnight basketball" (another failed democratic "program") and they're a racist? If you watch the television news for a month you'll hear the term "inner city" a dozen times at least. And if you think only blacks live in the inner city then you better look in the mirror before calling someone else a racist. You can't debate the merits or drawbacks of said "program" itself without calling other members, Racists? Look Cowgirl, one of the mods told me that "the hide button is your best friend." You're done. And if you come back under another name you'll be done then too.

When you can debate the merits or drawbacks of said program, then others might.

Yeah, so far you have nothing. You don't know what it is, don't know what it does, don't know what it costs, what it is supposed to help... So, are we talking about vacuousness and imbecility in promise zones in Boston and those who didn't even measure up to the amoebic levels or what? Promise Zones”, located in San Antonio, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Southeastern Kentucky, and the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma. These areas – urban, rural, and tribal – have all committed, in partnership with local business and community leaders, to use existing resources on proven strategies, and make new investments that reward hard work. They have developed strong plans to create jobs, provide quality, affordable housing and expand educational opportunity, which we’ll help them execute with access to on-the-ground federal partners, resources, and grant preferences. Each of these designees has a proven track record of working collaboratively; their officials work as a team with business, faith-based and non-profit organizations; and with the public to ensure that opportunity becomes real for every member of their communities. And precisely what is wrong with attempting to foster these things in America? How would you do it, other than posting cretinous sentence fragments, that have absolutely no sensiblility that don't even have the shameful qualities of non-sequiturs? I mean, other than you know some irish people in boston, and who the fuck doesn't, what discussion is there, pro and con, because I see only moronic slobbering passed off as some sort of witty repartee.

Isn't that what we've been doing for the last 200 years or so? That doesn't sound,...."new" to me, does it sound... "new" to you? "Promise Zone" sounds like a bunch of post pubesient kids playing spin-the-bottle and when it lines up on you and a member of the opposite sex you both go over to the..... "promise zone" and kiss until the other players tell you to stop. It certainly doesn't sound like something adults would come up with, does it?

mnottertail -> RE: "Promise Zones." (1/14/2014 10:15:49 AM)
I guess what we have been doing for 200 years in towns like Los Angeles (which has not been in America for 200 years) isnt working, and I agree I think we should courts martial malingerers rather than pay them for their reprehensible shiftlessness in government service, that sounds like spin the bottle.

mnottertail -> RE: "Promise Zones." (1/14/2014 10:34:41 AM)
Or they could put up signs 'There are irrefutably some real serious dumbasses in the world who don't have brains enough to pour piss out of a boot, and are not shy about oversharing it with those who are.' I would only expect promise zoners to be able to understand that advanced level of third grade English.

This week, appearing for the nutsackers in their world reknown play, "Ineptitude and Ignorance, the Nutsacker Drearm", no nutsackers, they are embarrassed, and believing that they are fooling anyone by calling themselves independant.

I know that Bean town is a welfare patient town, all the drunken shanty crew out there, but they are not a promise zone.

That's for sure, I'm an Independent and I don't want any nutsackers who voted for President Pantload around me either. Now, you seem to know a bit about these ",...Promise Zones" maybe you could share? About this "New" ......"Program" that President Nutsacker wants to foist on people. Oh, and I thought I heard something on the radio today about,...."Job Training!" Now there's a ,..."program" I haven't heard much since the "C.E.T.A." days. I dunno though, some of those potential ,...."Promisees" might not want to hear that! E.B.T. runs big in ,...."Promise Land.!" "Whoa, whoa,...JOB training? WTF?" What kinds of jobs do you think they might be talking about to train people for? And will it be on-the-job training or actually sending people to college to be Engineers. Nurses, Doctors, Lab Technologists? Let me turn that radio up,......"I'M ON THE HIGH......WAY....TO.....THE......*PROMISE ZONE!"*
