Its just a reflection on how under-qualified and terrible Obama has been as president. You see through the smoke and mirrors of his viral marketing campaign and what's left is you see an apologist in chief who is unable to unify the parties and has gridlocked this country.
As a psudo Harvard grad, I'd be upset if someone who claims they were from Brown was on my pay level.
So it's about cover up? If that's the case, then that's where the focus should be. The cover up allegation has nothing to do with what day Obama did or didn't call it terrorism. That said, even the cover up issue is a stretch and it wouldn't have seen any real air time if we were out of election time. But that's a whole other topic (and I can guess what all the usual posters on either side of the fence will have to say about it lol.)
mobes23, I'm curious why you think they sent the ambassador to the UN out to every Sunday news show to tell everyone that the attack on the embassy in Libya was spontaneous. [video=youtube;6oOxAyU8QwM]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oOxAyU8QwM[/video] I think it's because Obama and Biden were out spiking Bin Laden's head in the end zone and this significant failure in our foreign policy arose to mess things up for them. It's an election year. Obama isn't proud of his domestic agenda and if the foreign agenda is also a mess, what else is there?
Hmm, the three studies that I read had no reference to your question. They were dirrected at the truth or fiction of race, sex and sexual preference bieng a factor over all in what X workers made. I do believe , as you may also, that there are and always has been favoritism in the work place, cant really fight that. Good employer or bad, it is Our chioce to work for them. fact is there have been jobs that I hated but stuck with because the pay was so good.
In today's world, I agree with what you earlier wrote, two people in the same position, the harder working person makes more money. The study I would like to see is how many minority or women are CEO's in Portland vs. white men. What is the ratio in upper management positions, ratio of partners at large accounting or law firms, ect. Portland use to be terrible in these numbers but hear it is slowly improving.
What I came away with after digesting all the information was that there was about a ten hour a week difference. The thing that held females back was the demands of raising children. There was very little difference in race, more was based upon education. Believe me I understand that, I was a single father. I hadto take jobs that allowed my schedule to be more flexiable. Income was no where as good what I could hae made. BUT, it was a choice I made for my daughter.
Gallup has actually shown a widening of polls in favor of Romney after the debate. Gallup is now 52%-45%. The day of the debate it was Gallup 50%-46%. Rasmussen has remained steady at 49%-47%.
I understand your point and don't ahve a problem when someone makes that choice. Issue I have is not everyone gets to make taht choice. I have a problem when say 25% of the population is minority but 90% of the partners in all the major accounting firms in Portland are white males. Don't know if those are the current numbers, but I'm all about even playing field and making sure people can at least get on the feild to make those choices. The reality is it is a lot easier to be succesful in life if you come from money and have parents or relatives in positions of power. So it's not always about how hard you work, it's who you know. Don't know I to change it, but that is the issue I have problems with.
Just from anecdotal evidence, I've been amazed by how many of the big accounting frim associates are women who are gorgeous. I thought at some point those cute young associates would make their way into the partner ranks, but it still seems like 90% of the partners are white dudes who have a passel of young beauties doing their grunt work.
If true, this is shocking: http://www.powerlineblog.com/archiv...d-of-the-rules-was-intended-to-help-obama.php
uh, what is shocking or even interesting about that? Other than the completely misleading headline? barfo
Sorry I got distracted and forgot about this, but my point was that left leaning media will admit their defeat when wrong. I don't think they were necessarily going easy on Obama. But hey, I'm wrong often.
In the clip you sent, don't you find it pathetic that the left leaning media, even though they "admit their defeat", was almost needing suicide watch? That was a meltdown. Additionally, why in the world would a national media need to "admit their defeat"? Shouldn't they be neutral, thus making a defeat impossible?
