    Seriously.

    You are a sick person.

    The reason I gave was slander.

    I find it curious that building trade unions are the whipping boy here but aren't the police and fire unions just as closed off and hasn't that been a "liberal/progressive" issue to open them up?

    Seems like you have lots more cops and firemen jobs out there then say a "building tradesman" and they come with better pay, benefits and community prestige.

    Seriously, you need to go to the corener of the internet where Boom currently resides.

    I have 16 years in education and just calling people racist just to give you something to do during the day is not what this site should be about.

    Asking why Republicans haven't addressed this is like asking why South Carolina Dems didn't lead on taking down the flag.

    This is an issue the Dems could lead on. They choose not to for political reasons.

    So, please, keep talking about broad issues. Talks is cheap. Desegregate the building trades now. That would make a real difference in the lives of African-Americans. These are good paying jobs, that don't require a college degree. They're exactly what the African-American community needs.

    Getting Condi a green jacket didn't help a single person, but Howell Raines has a legacy!

    16 years in education doesn't preclude one from being a racist, whether you are or are not. White guilt on the other hand ...

    What's a corener?

    Isn't that a doctor that deals with dead people?

    Compared to the NHL of the building trades, police and fire departments are the NBA. #toydepartmentcomparisons

    I hadn't thought about this so in that regard I'm appreciative of YankeeFan's posts today, which *is* what this place is about.
