Star Member Cali_Democrat (25,158 posts) I think folks should probably refrain from posting opinion pieces from Fox 'Democrat' Kirsten PowersLast edited Wed Aug 19, 2015, 01:23 PM - Edit history (1)She just attacked Hillary and the DNC in her latest column. Fox News trots her out as a Democratic analyst, but of course all she does is attack Dems. I thought everyone knew this. That's why I'm surprised to see her stuff peddled here. Here's a sample of some of her other greatest hits (from google): Kirsten Powers: Obama ‘Normalized’ Left’s Anti-Speech Mobs with Attacks on Fox News Kirsten Powers: Christians thrown overboard left to drown by Obama Kirsten Powers: Obama's Latest Attack On FOX News "Gratuitous," Is "Beneath The Office Of The President" Fox’s Kirsten Powers Rips Obama for Being ‘Largely Silent’ on Christian Slaughter Kirsten Powers to Obama: Stop hectoring Christians and start protecting them Kirsten Powers: I'm Tired Of "Having To Defend This President" And Obamacare ----- There's plenty more where that cam from. Oh....and be sure to check her book which will be released soon: "Kirsten Powers writes weekly for USA TODAY and is author of the upcoming The Silencing: How the Left is Killing Free Speech."
Kirstin can be as looney as they come still but one thing that happens on Fox with libs is they actually have to listen to other opinions.Unlike DUmb****s like you Cali who know they can`t answer for the leftist stupidity when called out.
The willful race based destruction of a generation of kids
madville (2,933 posts) 51. I got bused into the city in the 80'sWe lived out in the predominantly white suburbs and they bussed us about 15 miles into the city to add some white kids to a middle school that had previously been 90%+ black, driving right by two other middle schools along the way. In my opinion it was a disaster, there were daily fights, white vs. black brawls involving 100+ people would shut the school down for days at a time, there were close gun shots in the blocks surrounding the school at least weekly, teachers would just tell us to close the windows. I know the white suburban neighborhood kids I grew up around became the biggest racists you had ever seen within months. Luckily we moved after I had only gone there one year. Interestingly we moved to a rural county with one middle school that was about 50/50 black and white and things were relatively calm because everyone had grown up in the same small town their whole lives. Elementary school may work better though since the kids are younger. Those were different times also, dropping "rich" white 12-14 year olds into the poorest part of the city back then was definitely the wrong way to do it, things were still segregated within the school.

Response to cali (Reply #53)Mon Aug 17, 2015, 11:19 AMmadville (2,933 posts) 56. I responded to a comment about bussingSure bussing in students from higher performing areascould boost the school performance numbers on paper. It doesn't address the underlying issues for the individual students, like poverty or poor home lives.

I respect her as a reasonably sane Democrat who has generally sound thoughts, given her different basic assumptions. In addition to simply lusting after her, of course.
There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
