You know where the door is and don't let it hit you in the ass on the way out
Cool, so you'll be on the next flight out right? By the sounds of it we'll be better off
Right, those damn liberals and their book learnin'. As if the neo cons are just bursting with Rhodes scholars. More like country bumpkins who couldn't spell cat without the c and tDid you just use the words "liberal" and "think" in the same sentence??
they've been tryin for years..... seems there is no consensus on how to proceed. I say instead of being negative, they should inspire each other to excel and have positive aspirations. No one coddled the boat people , but now most of their children are doctors. Attitude is what fixes the problem.
For once we can agree,...
Bearing in mind that the boat people would have immediately experienced discrimination,...and still succeeded.

Tiger Moms!
That's the difference between facing one generation of direct discrimination, where your family and family values can help you pull through, and having to face the same things after centuries of efforts to destroy your family and your community, so that you have to face it from a broken home.
Jeezus dude, it was just a joke.Right, those damn liberals and their book learnin'. As if the neo cons are just bursting with Rhodes scholars. More like country bumpkins who couldn't spell cat without the c and t
Next time I'll add a smiley

Reminds me of a funny story about the father of William Randolf Hearst. Apparently Hearst's father was not book smart and at one time he ran for government. His opponent said he can't even spell 'bird.' To which Hearst senior said 'well, if b-u-r-d doesn't spell bird, then what the hell does it spell?' Apparently his opponent was left speechless. Slam dunk!

I'm put in mind of the fairly well known academic joke "Be kind to those you give "A's" and "B's" to someday they will be your colleagues, but be particularly nice to those you give "C's" and "D's" to, someday one of them will be Chairman of the Board of Trustees."
Which is a better way of saying that it is dangerous and frankly just plain uncouth to look down your nose at those not as well educated as you, somehow otherwise "beneath you."
Watch this Haiti prison documentary and then tell me how lucky we are to live in a democracy like Canada:
It is quite easy for a great many of us to forget that the Western World and particularly the English Speaking Realms and the U.S.A. are not the world.Watch this Haiti prison documentary and then tell me how lucky we are to live in a democracy like Canada
