I would agree with you IF the only point being made was about the name....it was NOT the only point and I sure hope folks read a bit better than it seems they do based on this thread. Agree or disagree but keep it in context and read the entire thing. |

For those who want a bit more than the OPs interpetation of the article, my I quote the first few sentences from the article...
"The Boston bombing crime shows that comprehensive immigration reform should not be only a southern border problem or even just a problem of illegal aliens. It's also a problem of foreigners who are admitted legally but should never have been admitted, and of others admitted legally on a visa but are not tracked to make sure they depart when their visitor's time expires, as U.S. law requires." Boston Marathon Bombing Shows Immigration Not Only A Border Problem - Investors.com This was the point of the oped, and I do not think she did a particulary good job at presenting it, but she does not deserve to be taken apart personally on here because of her age and any other personal slams that have been aimed at her. Is this thread to be about the personal lacks of the writer or the article ? |

Bucco. That was a very sane answer.
People who show hatred, push you further into your own views and make you angry.
They don't change your mind, they make you more entrenched. Hatred is obvious from a hundred paces on this forum. And the usual logical approach by so many of you that I look up to is calming. Thank you Bucco. |

In my mind, Ms Schlafly lost her credibility many years ago with her inane views on women's rights. Her comments on the Violence Against Women Act were something along the lines of "it shouldn't be enacted because it promotes divorce and hatred of men". Such wisdom, NOT. I don't waste my time reading the views of people I don't consider intelligent.

This thread is hopelessly off track of the original topic about a column in today's paper. Personal attacks, name calling, and political statements render it unwieldy to clean up, hence it will be closed.
The admin has opened the door to allow discussion of current events topics as long as they stay away from name calling, partisan references, overt political topics, personal attacks, and extreme rants. Sadly, few of these threads seem to last more than a few hours before they degrade beyond repair. It's unfortunate that we can't discuss important topics with respect and civility. Dismounting soapbox.... |
