Hey Razor.. i just read your last Pm..
I don't think that would be a good idea.
Maybe so, but I still think official "Volvospeed" logo packaged condoms would be the new pegs.
...well, at least go on new pegs.

French is a language for the lazy. They forget to pronouce the ends of words.
STOP STALKING ME!!
-
French is just too tough. More signifiacntly, the Chinese are learning English, not French. I don't know if that's good or bad for Uncle Sam. Me thinks bad.
And this post does not belong in Political Discussions since Chirac left the room there was, in fact, no political discussion.

I did.
You are good and merciful.

BIG BROTHER IS ALWAYS WATCHING...
You should read the subsequent two.
Hey Razor.. i just read your last Pm..I don't think that would be a good idea.

you're kidding right?
Of course. But are the people I am mocking (who routinely play the race card or sex card) such as Jesse Jackson kidding? Sadly, No.
-
It may not explicitly talk about, homosexuality, but if you attended one of their meetings, you would see that it is discussed.
that description is pretty general aside from part about women and equality. this may be because the groups are directed based on the members and what they would like to discuss at each meeting.
furthermore i dont think a program that encourages diversity and acceptance is a waste of taxpayer money.
I think in America today, diversity and acceptance are done deals. It's like continuing to smash the egg with the hammer.
-
It was when you were born, which raises the question, why are you here?
Ahhh, the intellectual and untouchable "I know you are but what am I". Dastardly!
-
Razor is the poster child for birth control.
Nice Zap. I suspect you are the reason Roe v Wade is in effect.
responsibility is the purpose of planned parenthood. its there so people can get condoms and other forms of birth control. am i wrong?btw whats RvW?
Responsibility is the responsibility of the individual ultimately.
Condoms simply mean reducing the odds of pregnancy (or infection for that matter). It does not eliminate it by any means.
And you mean to say that people can't get their own condoms and dental dams?
And as far as teaching responsibility, that is the domain of the parent and secondarily the "system".
And FINALLY, what is more responsible, setting up a high-powered campaign pushing hard for abstinance, sexual responsibility and consequences or handing out rubbers?
-
I am NOT advocating DEPORTATING those who are already here. I am merely saying NO MORE FOR NOW, UNTIL WE SAY SO. And for those here, lets make you legal. And if you refuse to become legal, you go.
I can't think an anything more fair.
-
It's irrelevant. RvW is a "dead man walking". tick tick tick.
Time to take that refresher course on "How To Be More Responsible with your Sex Organ" ladies- that is unless you like raising kids alone.
Okay, now Theresa is soooper-pissed at me!
-and I thought the Pol Forum was dead. Silly me.

Those protesters are all racist, white supremacists and male chauvinists. The obviosuly hate her because she is black and a woman.
GAWD I LOVE SAYING THAT!!!!! Feels soooo good for a TruCon (not NeoCon) to say that.

Why is it a hot issue, again?
500,000 people protesting in Los Angeles in opposition new (and weak) Congressional Legislation that appears to begin to go after illegal immigration.
And its the big topic on capitol hill this week.
I think its going to be a hot issue in November.
-
This is THE hot issue this week and possibly through the election.
Personally I think the only way to go is:
1. ALLOW THOSE ALREADY HERE TO REGISTER AND STAY AS LEGAL IMMIGRANTS (120 day registration period) Basically, a FINAL AMNESTY
AND
2. IMMEDIATE AND TIGHT BORDER CONTROLS BY WHATEVER MEANS NECESSARY
AND
3. IMMEDIATE DEPORTATION FOR WHOMEVER ARE STILL ILLEGAL AFTER THIS FINAL AMNESTY.

I read it twice. WTF did they say???? Here's the LINK (and down below)
No disrespect to anyone, but I think if ANY culture needs proping today, it's the American one and our sense of self as a country WITH borders.
And the thing about girls and women in equity with boys and men...by a large margin boys are dropping out of schools at a far, far higher rate than girls (according to my sources) I have not verfied this for myself.
If ANYTHING, it's the Boys that need the help.
Reads like a rehash of institutionalized multiculturalism (which is Anti-American Culturalism basically- anything but our culture, self-guilt, shame, etc)
Looks like another taxpayer funded boondoggle.
THAT BEING SAID:
There is nothing about homos in the description of the program. Obviously, the web-site opposition needs a bit of education and intellectual honesty and some anger management seminars.

The S.E.E.D. Project on Inclusive Curriculum (Seeking Educational Equity & Diversity)
Peggy McIntosh, Brenda Flyswithhawks, and Emily Style, Co-Directors
Key Ideas behind the SEED Project
• Unless we as teachers re-open our own backgrounds to look anew at how we were schooled to deal with diversity and connection, we will be unable to create school climates and curriculum which more adequately equip today's students to do so.
• Intellectual and personal faculty development, supported over time, is needed if today's schools are to enable students and teachers to develop a balance of self-esteem and respect for the cultural realities of others, in the U.S. and in other parts of the world. S.E.E.D. seminars often involve other school staff along with teachers; SEED seminars have also been held in colleges and universities, and with parents and students.
• Teachers and other school personnel are the authorities on their own experience. When teachers experience being put at the center of the process of growth and development they can, in turn, more successfully put students' growth and development at the center of their classrooms. What Peggy McIntosh and Emily Style call "faculty-centered faculty development" parallels student-centered learning and achievement.
• Both teachers and students need an awareness that respecting oneself and understanding one's own authority is intimately related to one's ability to respecting and listening to others, since they too are authorities on their life experiences. The S.E.E.D. Project works within schools to deepen the practice of a democratic balance between self and others in classrooms, schools, and society.
• Without systemic understanding of gender, race, class, and other interlocking societal systems, individual educators who try to transform the curriculum will lack coherence and creative flexibility in dealing with current events and scholarship, old and new. Group conversation, intentionally structured, can support teachers and administrators in creating accurate, nourishing curriculum material, and pedagogical strategies that are more gender balanced, multiculturally equitable, and globally attuned.
• All education can benefit from asking key questions: What would curriculum and pedagogy look like if the lives of women and girls were seen as co-central with the lives of men and boys? And how can curriculum and teaching methods provide, in the metaphors of Emily Style, both "windows" into others' experiences, and "mirrors" of each student's own realities and validity?

I think teaching is one of the great tragedies in modern day. Teachers play such a vital role in the perpetuation of our way of life and they are largely underpaid, overworked and crapped on by many. To me its one of the most noble endeavors today. If I was gov or pres I'd find a way to:
1. Double the pay of classroom teachers.
2. Force parents to participate/give them easy access to monitor classroom activity and performance.
3. Allow kids to be kicked out of school easily
4. Make teachers stick to core curriculum part of the time and allow them time for their own course-realted topics.
5. Streamline (remove) most administration.
6. Teach fundamentals first.
7. Relegate sex ed to anatamoy and leave the moral coaching to the parents.
8. Protect teachers with decent lawyers who will interface with threatening parents.
I could go on.

I think parents are the key to many problems. Teachers can only do so much. Parents need to take a proactive role.
Separately, IMO, forced busing is a horrible idea. It simply averages out all of the schools into an average instead of having one or two stand out and having one or two sink low. At least in the latter case, attention can be focused on the lower achieving schools to bring them up and the students get to stay in their neighborhood.
What do you do for your district?

This is part of the title of a book by Jonathon Kozol. I saw him speak at my school a few weeks ago, and have been meaning to post about it. This man is a very passionate educator!!! His first year of teaching (1964), he was fired for teaching poetry to his 4th grade class. He has spent the last decade or so visiting inner city schools. He has found that not only are children being academically judged on a higher gamnet, but they are beginning to be racially segregated. I haven't read his book, but I plan to.

edit: i've had a few glasses of wine, so please excuse my poor grammar and spelling.
Don't you think they should allow the kids to pick whichever school in the district they would like to attend?
That way schools compete amongst themselves for the better kids and the kids get to pick.
Sounds fair to me.

I'm curious what her religious background is...
Christian.

That looks so cool. Why the serious look? Looks like you're already after "The Disciple".
I smell a movie script coming forth, born of my festering fingers. "The Disciple"

Murchison is not hard to find. Go get on it.
Brilliant and horrific. This guy wouldn't stand a chance. Murchison

Do you dispute the FACT that the impetus behind taking military action in Iraq was based on lies?
Do you dispute the FACT that the social security program is drastically underfunded in a budgetary climate where the government is 'attempting' to cut the fat not increase spending?
Like, maybe this is masked superiority of being a proud Canadian over seemingly ignorantly proud Americans. But the absolute lack of intelligent responses is only fueling that complex!
Anyone, Bueler!?
You didn't seem to respond to mine about the attack on women's right to pregnancy (as you put it above)
I take personal offense that you deem my contributions "seemingly ignorant" and your complaint of an "absolute lack of intelligent responses".
Let me state my observation that you seem to be AmeriPhobic and think Canada is the greatest thing since sliced bread. I am happy you love your country.
"LIES" Lies are intended to deceive, I'll paste from a recent post countering your accusation of "LIES".
1. US, British, French, Russian, Israeli intelligence, all in agreement, indicated high probability that Saddam still had WMD's
2. At the end of the Gulf War, Saddan had confirmed WMD's.
3. Saddam never accounted for their destruction.
4. The goofing off at the UN took 14 months even after 8 years and 15 resolutions (we ended up with 17?) and 14 months is plenty of time to slide those WMD's to, say, Syria or the neighborhood.
5. Saddam consistently obstructed UN inspectors and hampered their efforts.
6. The finding of buried MIG-25 Foxbats in the desert demonstrates how hard it is find something over there.
7. The Bush Administration had to make a decision as to the RISK that Saddams WMD's could reach the hands of Al Qaida who had recently demonstrated the means to deliver them (9/11) in the US (something Iraq could not do).
I believe the decision was made simply to act rather than not act (to be proactive and aggressive). The US coulda pulled out after removing Saddam but are staying behind because of what happened after Gulf War I and the shot at a democratic ME, Islamic country (which may prove to be a valuable ally). I don't buy the war for oil crapola. Venezuela is much closer and woulda been much easier! Plus, we'd be invading Japan now to stop production of the Prius!
Now there is new info from a former Iraqi Rep Guard general:
I would like reply by simply saying I think that the decision to invade Iraq was not directly to fight terrorism but indirectly. The risk of Saddam passing a WMD to a terrorist organization was simply too great. There is a lot of evidence that he had them and now new evidence in a new book from one of his generals, Georges Sada
So go ahead, your turn to provide evidence supporting your "LIES" accusation.
I am anxiously awaiting your information.
Reminds Me Of Canadians :p
