I am shocked...SHOCKED, that rich people's kids get into fancy schools

more easily than “ordinary folk”

At Penn, there is a fraternity… Well, I’ll give you an idea… Denzel Washington’s son pledged this fraternity and was accepted as a member. He was “rushed” as they say in fraternity parlance, due to his celebrity status.

Economically he was among the poorest members of the frat. There were a number of billionaires’ sons, as well as people whose parents were worth nine figures rather than ten. This fraternity house had maids and a butler, and the shopping for food was done for the members, absolutely no house work needed to be performed, and there were other perks, which I will not mention here due to their salacious nature .

The scholastic performance of the vast number of the members was below average, but as we all know, that doesn’t matter at all whatsoever.

I think about the individuals I know who attended Yale, who were my contemporaries and their absolute academic brilliance, and then there was George W. Bush, who could not put a single sentence together which made sense.

Anyone else not surprised?

You mean like the people who benefitted from “affirmative action” policies.

Knucklehead apparently doesn't realize EVERY frat/sorority has a "rush" week when potential members are screened.

I'd say being Denzels kid is just as effective as being a billionaires son/daughter.

I wouldn't want this former "dentist" to be anywhere near my teeth if he was, in fact, shocked by this fact..

Liberals disgust me. (Now I don't have to remember to put it on each post).

Because only the left goes searching for that which is not there in a desperate attempt to be offended about something.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Many people do not see evil until the gas is flowing into the chamber. That is why they get on the trains in the first place.

...

Given the scarcity of knowledge and honesty on DU, it is entirely possible that PCI posted deceptively, thinking that many/most DU-folk would not know that, and those who do would not call out his deception because it feeds the economic envy that is indigenous to ProgDUmb.

Maybe they “rushed “ him because they needed another butler  :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:
Life is tough and it’s even tougher when you’re stupid

Basking in the glow of my white Privilege and toxic masculinity while I water the Begonias with liberal tears!

I will give up my guns when the liberals give up their illegal aliens

We need a Bull Shit tax to make the Democrats go broke!
