What policy decision is everyone so opposed to?
We were simply talking about Republicans being "spineless" for voting in favor of Sotomayor.
Then Kaos goes on this rant about Minorities takin' over. We're catering to the lowest common denomonator, etc.
Seems like either a completely out of left field comment, or he's emphatically upset that someone not of the master race dares to join the supreme court...
You're the only fuck who sees anything about race in my commentary. I think that makes you a fucking RACIST.
You're reading waaaaay too much into it.
My position is simply this: I don't really give a fiddly fuck how anybody votes on Sotamayer because it really doesn't matter. "By the people and for the people" has been overridden. Our government's concern is now primarily "by the special interest group and for my re-election campaign." Fuck them all.
Republicans ARE spineless. Democrats ARE spineless. They no longer represent the people they claim to represent and are interested only in party maneuverings and power grabs. Richard Shelby's JOB should be to reflect the will of the people he represents. Do you think he does that?
So what fucking difference does it make?
And fuck you for injecting race into everything, you fucking racist. My "rant" had NOTHING to do with "minorities taking over." The "lowest common denominator" comes from education where teachers are forced to tailor their teaching to the lowest level, often leaving the more intelligent kids in a state of boredom because we're afraid to admit that ALL kids just aren't bright. Some need extra help. Others need to be on advanced tracks to make maximum use of their skills. But we can't do that, it isn't "fair." Has nothing to do with black, white or asian -- although the asian kids are pretty smart!
We've reached a point to where our government thinks it can legislate equality of outcome as opposed to equality of opportunity. And that's ridiculous.
It's people with their heads (and dicks) in the sand like this who fuck up every legitimate opportunity for discussion. Scream racism and watch folks run for cover.
