Unions and the Wisconsin Governor

[Breadburner]

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the face of the modern left--bracketed by a lock to a pole.

She should have tried this in Yellowstone.....

And here's Kirk.

Go Kirk.

Are you confused about the movie reference?

Why would I? I introduced that movie to this thread. Read my post that our cop quoted and responded to. Seriously, are you 2 related or something?

[Townsend]

Must be the pain meds.

Srsly?

Wow.  I hope potential clients don't read your ramblings.  They won't be potential any more.

"It's a simple ad, with a simple story, about a career GOP politician's misplaced priorities," Winston adds.


I wonder what these vermin are gearing up for? http://www.bradblog.com/?p=8611

I guess those education-concerned teachers that walked off the job, shutting down schools, and dragging their students to protest with them have a higher ground to stand on.

I think it's time that government operated more like a large business. They should simply fire all those expensive, whining teachers and replace them with Mexicans, Filipinos, and Chinese.  Imagine the money it would save!

They do a pretty good job at roofing, lawn care, upholstery and probably more.  Maybe we should give them a chance.

Many of our teachers are Mexicans, Filipinos, and Chinese.  Do you have something against diversity in our teaching staff? . . .and I don't think that their pay should be based on race.  Do you?

I hope you weren't intentionally trying to be raciest.

Sarcasm or irony - I always have trouble confusing them.  I thought it was over-the-top enough to not merit <sarcasm> </sarcasm> but maybe I was wrong.

And no, it was not racist - though that is in the eye of the beholder, at times. It was meant as a swipe at the outsourcing mentality that grips American business, where getting something done cheaper is synonymous with doing it better. While that serves the bottom line and the stock holders, it may not actually serve the customers.

Remember ValueJet.

I get bit by some TNFers occasionally because of misunderstood sarcasm. For the record, I think this forum is pretty-well behaved when it comes to race issues.
