  16. Baggs, your description of the UM admissions policy is total bulls***. The policy is not about taking "less qualifed" applicants - I am so f***ing tired of that tired old rant - it is about ensuring diversity - with diversity a value in education - in the educational process and is a factor that is used in choosing among equally qualified candidates, a factor but not the factor - athletics, children of alums, geographical diversity vs home state representation, special academic distinctions, are among many things that play a role in the UM admissions process, in accordance with the US Supreme Court decision in Bakke - for Bush to call the process "quotas" was a bald faced lie and he knew he it because the legal brief that wass filed on his behalf fromt he Solciter General never makes that point because the UM process is not about quotas - but it was Bush playing to the race card and speaking of how many times you have heard liberals say this or that, have you ever heard me say that? Can I state how many times I hear conservatives say things I think are defamatory? That is not substantiation of anything. I need no lectures from the party of Strom Thurmond and Trent Lott about policies of the past in race. Progress in the Civil Rights movement has come in this country via the Democtratic party, with the need to mention Illinois' own Everett Dirksen and other moderate Republicans (where have they gone...) who assisted in passing the original Civil Rights Act. Funny how the Twin Towers occupies a different place in people's thinking rather than the bombing of Fort Sumtner or the bombing of the Murrah Building. What is the difference? I think I can see it. To me, waving a confederate flag is the equivilant of waving a flag for bin Laden, who killed far less people than died in a few hours on the Gettsyburg battlefield but represents an equal evil. if you have to discriminate to ensure diversity how is that good for the country..and its not total bulls***..those two girls sued because they had higher scores...now a case can be made that because someone coming from a ghetto doesnt have the same opportunities to succeed..via preperatio nfor these tests that if their score is close to someone coming from a richer community it could very well be that that person fro mthe ghetto is indeed smarter...but thats where my plan comes in..in my plan no one is discrimnated against...how could you be aginst that???..in my plan all 4 of those people would have gotten in..no controversy.. its not about quotas???..thats exactly what its about...its giving extra points to somebody based solely on skin color or ethniticity..while others get nothing..IT IS WRONG about saying this and that..youre right..im sure conservatives have said just as many stupid things as liberals..but conservatives arnt the group that runs around calling everybody who doesnt agree with us racist..its liberal democrats that do that..while a klu klux klan grand wizard sit with a bid "D" next to his name in the senate...all im saying is if all these liberal democrats are going to run around and demonize our presdient or our party..they should atleast clean up their own house first.. progress in civil rights did come from the democrats..no doubting that..that was ahuge mistake by republicans...but it was 30 some years ago..times have changed..i can make an arguement that says the two parties have almost done a complete 180 since the 60's??...look at abortion..you have pro life and pro choice i nthe republican party..while the republican party still stands mostly for pro life people like tom ridge and christine todd-whitman are supported by our party..they are pro choice...name me one pro life democrat??? btw..another thing we agree on..the civil war..im not versed on the civil war..thats why i didnt jump in that arguement...i never studied it like i should have...i know the arguement about state rights and it has some merit..but there is no doubt in my mind that it was used as a viel with the real reason keeping slavery in tact...i dont know how anyone can deny that..other than that i leave that subject to you who are not as ignorant on the subject as myself..
  17. 70% of americans are for this war..23% are against...when the percentage is that one sided it means the middle of the road people who usually swing these things one way or another have spoken...in favor of president bush... if bush won the presidency with less than 50% of the vote and now 70% of the people are in favor of his actions pertaining to iraq..thats means alot of people that voted for gore are backing bush now... so let me ask you..could it be that maybe you might be wrong on this??.. i respect your views on things because you take the time to really study the issues...more time then i do id bet (who do find the time anways?)...but i also get the feeling that whatever bush decides to do you will find a problem with it.. the best case for not going to war i have heard comes from democratic representive peter defazio..he said that why are we going to war with iraq when al-qada and north korea pose a much greater threat to our safety??...i have to admit that is a great question..one that i would like to ask president bush myself...im sure they have intelligence that we dont but logically speaking, from what we know, we should be hard pressed to get north korea first, then al-qada..(though one could make the case that despite not getting bin-laden we have pretty much destroyed their network of cells to the point where they are almost non functional), then iraq...by the way i voted for defazio 3 times...you ever vote for a republican ?? off on a tangent here..defazio is the democrat i have the most respect for..in '90 he was a state rep in oregon...the democrats who held all the power in the state at that time made a deal with the republicans that if they voted a certian way on a education bill they would agree to open up some state owned land to logging...well the republicans held up their end of the bargin and when it came time to for the dems to hold up their end they all bailed...except defazio..he came out and said we made a deal with the republicans and should honor it...the dems ripped him a new one..said he should go join the republicans...told him they would do everything to see he gets no supports in the future if he didnt chnge his stand...well he didnt..and eventually he got the land opened up for logging...which is why he is a US representive right now...eventhough politically we disagree a guy with that kind of moral leadership is someone the democrats should be looking to as a leader..
  18. okay lets see.. track record on federal appointees??..want to elaborate...he has a nicaraugan up for a federal bench poisition right now that the "racist" democrats are trying to block by filibuster..you cant have it both ways support of the confederate flag??...oh please..god what a stupid thing to rally around..talk about racist and divisive..how many times have i heard liberals refer to southerners as crackers , hicks ect...you got to be kidding...for god sakes you support the party that has klu klux klan gran wizard robert byrd as its ranking senator...the guy that klinton called "the moral compass of the democratic party"...you better clean up your own house first before you go around calling anyone else racist..atleast the republicans in louisiana had the common sense to vote david duke down by a huge margin... university of michigan admissions process is racist..it should be opposed...and this policy exactly follows the definition of racist..because is discriminates and keeps people in a certian group from following their dreams or career choices(in this case white)...thats racism...keeping people from economic gain...there is a simple way to do this where no one gets hurt...have your regular admission process followed..then if there arnt the right number of minorities you can add them in as extras to the percentage is acceptable..this last case there were only 2 people..your telling me a school the size of michigan couldnt find room for 2 more students??..no, they gotta make a politcal stand here instead...but saying to qualified applicants we cant take you because we have to take someone else less qualified based on skin color is total bulls***... as far as us trampling on everything you hold dear???...welcome to the club...people who support bush have to listen to him being demonized everyday as a racist , a hiltler, the devil..ect ect ect..this coming from other americans.. and i hope the NRA is owed bigtime by bush (though i doubt thats the case) im a lifetime member of the NRA...you guys on the left demonize the NRA w/o even looking at what the organization does...they have the very best (any police dept will tell you this) program for teaching kids to stay away from guns..its been proven time and time again by researchers that if you put a kid in a room with a gun thats been through this program he is like 10 times less likely to play with that gun then a kid that didnt go through the program...they also have numerous programs for the enviorment..they work hand in had with the department of fish and wildlife all over the country to improve the enviorment where hunters hunt..to ensure the deer ,elk and bird populations remain healthy....these animal populations have thrived under these programs.....hunters are the original enviormentalists..think about it..if hunters dont make the enviorment and the animals they hunt strong and healthy very shortly they'd have nothing left to hunt...w/o the NRA , dept of fish and wildlife and hunters for generations deer and elk wpould be all but extinct in this country..turn of the last century(1900) they almost were...
  19. you caught that one huh HSC??? ...i dont know who will be the surprise...thats why they are a surprise..if we can guess who..then they arnt a surprise anymore
  20. if its purely offensive numbers jose should be higher than 15..his power alone from a ss is a huge advantage in most fantasy leagues
  21. i didnt put harris on that last because ,one , he would have gotten all the votes and two , he is not a starter going into camp...
  22. thats easy..you stick jose on SS, bat him 2nd and leave him there...and tell him to do whatever it takes to put t his team in a position to win..somehow..whether with the glove , bat ,baserunning , bunting ,productive out ,whatever , jose will find a way to get it done
  23. No way do you put him ahead of Wright ..... Danny proved himself last year. Rauch has POTENTIAL but hasn't proved s***.... yet. wright won 14 games last year as a rookie...and everyone wants to move the kid out of the rotation??...ill take danny over garland myself
  24. would be hilarious if this episode ruined boreass' career..
