Banking on Death

A good friend from college has a nice post:

Now how about that. The former Head of the House of Slitherin and former World Champion Blowhard made a very compassionate remark and showed just how much he is concerned for the wellbeing and safety of the citizens of the gulf states region:

The hurricane is going to hit New Orleans about the time they start [RNC Convention]. The timing is, at least it appears now, it will be there Monday. That just demonstrates God is on our side,” Fowler said, while laughing. Fowler also told Spratt that “everything’s cool.”

Yeah, God is on your side cause he made a Jack-Ass speak. Yeah, everything is cool. Some people will die, some will come home to flooded homes or no homes, and you are ecstatic about that because it "helps" you politically. I wonder if he would have gotten any laughs about that had he said it while waiting in line to get on a bus heading out of town. Jerk.

"Policies such as affirmative action only prolong racial prejudices and call attention to color rather than turn a BLIND EYE TO IT."
Pure,RACISM...

"Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,

God also created Blacks, Latinos, Asians, and every other minority group in this country...
You are preaching Christianity but turning a blind eye to those in need is certainly not what Christ taught.




Shame on you!

Rio - How narrow is your understanding of affirmative action?

The best person for the job, Period. That is not racist, that is not Pro-White. that is Pro-Performance. Who CARES what race a person is, the best person for the job should get it.

I shouldn't be considered over a white man for a job because I'm a woman. The kid in my high school who got terrible grades and poor ACT shouldn't have gotten into a top tier university because he claimed he was hispanic (well, he's 1/8th).

I don't care what color or gender you are. The best person should get the job, or admission in school.

AFFIRMATIVE ACTION, Rio, is racist. It prefers minorities over whites. My friend who got top grades at Notre Dame, volunteered with the fire department there, became a Paramedic, and left behind a 6-figure income to follow his dream to be a fire fighter could NOT get a job in the City of Chicago... because he was a White Male. You tell ME that's not racist? He didn't get a job because of the color of his skin.

Think before you speak, Rio. Affirmative Action is RACIST. Let's drop that and look at the most qualified person for a change!

Let me guess. you got poor grades but feel entitled?
