OK, how about some rational opinions about this issue that seems to be ripping our country apart at the seams.
and if not go online to the congressional library you'll see that it's always been partisan. Less so when there's a war.

The difference now is that there is instant information about every single bit of who said, she said. No need to blow things out of proportion, but delving into our history is proof that not much has changed....other than instant news.

It seems to vary a bit though. There are some politicians who bring people together others who are extremely divisive. Trump is one of the most polarizing politicians in US history.

"There was also widespread speculation, based on Riggs' unusually poor play and large number of unforced errors, that Riggs had purposely lost the match in order to win large sums of money that he had bet against himself, as a way to pay off his gambling debts."

How about the match between:

Martina Navratilova 5 2
Jimmy Connors 7 6

Connors killed her.

How about ALL the rest of the matches between men and women? The ONLY time a woman wins is when the deck is stacked!

Bobby Riggs was in his 50s when he played King who was in her prime.

There IS a REASON there are women's sports AND men's sports and we're not all mixed together...there wouldn't BE any women in sports if there wasn't "woman's sports".

It's NOT what you were made for. Sports comes from hunting and the skills needed to hunt. Something women aren't made by nature to do. I'm sorry...I'm JUST the messenger...I didn't make things the way they are...I just TELL you the way they are.

Wackadoodle's silly article made me wonder why the first cave woman was not boxing the $hit out of the first caveman?

THIS is however true. As "sports" are now...they ARE rigged towards what men are better at. The ONLY way to change it...is to create a "sport" that does fit women better then men. Good luck.

It is SO easy to prove men are better...

EXACTLY...my God woman...you ARE dense.

Go look at the men's column...now look at the women's column...is there ANYTHING that the women BEAT the men in? Just ONE? No...there isn't...meaning men ARE superior to ALL women in sports.

Let's do a thought experiment...I know...it's HARD...but bear with me.

The minorities are ALSO inferior to white people the same way women are inferior to men in sports. They are BETTER at certain sports but INFERIOR in everything else.

Let's say in education...if we divided education into white/Asina and black/Hispanic...we would see the same thing. A GAP...where one side ALWAYS outperforms the other.

THIS is the reality of the racial/gender situation. Delusion, pretending, laws, QUOTAS does not "make it" reality...it destroys. We've gone from #1 to #25 BECAUSE the population has gone from 90% white to 49%.

The villages will change too IF we allow an influx of minorities...it's what ALWAYS happens...when it's "white" it runs well, is organized, is calm and peaceful, everyone is prosperous...when it's "minority", diversified...it sucks...EVERY time.

You can't come up with even ONE example where there is a 99% black ANYTHING that turns out good?

...."“In a not so past life, I was a big law attorney in Chicago. My honeymoon period of practicing law lasted for about 17 minutes. Every day, I woke up absolute dreading going to work. You see, ever since I was in elementary school, I imagined living a big, meaningful life. But in order to live that big, meaningful life, one must be passionate about what s/he does. Quickly, I learned that I was not passionate about practicing law, so continuing the course would mean I would have to defer my dream of living a big meaningful life. "

Methinks you need to go back and read your own post again, then read mine...and realize that I simply pegged your rant perfectly.

I'm the one that stated I believe in 'checks and balances' by not putting one party in charge of everything, but all you EVER do is to stand on your soapbox, lecture of the evils of anything to the left of your extreme right positions...and refuse to acknowledge yours and your own party's failings.

That you think soft-pedaling denigrating remarks should give you some kind of brownie points, versus those of us who are simply direct with the truth...is a very good insight into your own insecurities.

While you love to view yourself as a pseudo-intellectual who evaluates both sides...you're simply a blinded Chump Apologist.

I don't believe he has a clue as to how desperate he comes across to decent, intelligent folks when he stands on his soapbox bloviating...while never being able to support his own position with facts or links.

It's clear that he actually thinks people should believe him...based solely on the fact that he's the one saying it.

That takes a special kind of deafness...and an inability to utilize cognitive thinking.

The fact that he's been caught many times plagiarizing, tells me that he pours over other extreme right-wingnuts material to find nuggets...that he can slightly reword and pass off as his own.

Pretty sad and pathetic...when you think about it.
Can't you think for yourself ? ggeeezzz

They did nothing meaningful...these are bullsh!t companies selling CRAP. Lets see what we have here...

A secret shopper? THAT is the great accomplishment?

"While working for a corporation, I wrote reviews in the local African-American newspaper for arts events and restaurants. I absolutely loved being a secret-shopper of sorts. Then, a few friends asked me to secret-shop their small businesses, so I did."

What else... Assessment tools?

"I decided to develop one of my research projects into Clearview360, a company spun out of the university, which offers a suite of assessment tools for healthcare organizations. Clearview360 provides tools that assess patient experience, health literacy, cultural competency, and employee engagement of healthcare organizations.”

Tush-ups? Really? THAT is a great achievement?

“I started my business because after the birth of my fourth child I did not feel comfortable or confident in my fitness clothing and found that other women had the same issues. So I created “Tush Ups” which have a built-in seamless panty, slimming effect, and rear pockets where removable buttock enhancement pads can be added for a boost."

Selling jewelry?

"A self-taught graphic designer, I founded TurnerHill – a brand identity design firm – and worked with small businesses and non-profits to create memorable and engaging print and online identity systems. A web developer with a passion for style, I sought to update my professional look with jewelry that could make the transition from client meeting to social dinner. Finding this however was a daunting task. Either the jewelry was way out of my young professional budget, cheap in quality, or there was barely a selection at all. This was a problem so I set out to fix it. I created ERIN/ANDERSON – the online destination for desk-to-dinner fashion jewelry at a guilt-free price point.”

That's the fist four...I'm not wasting my time with the rest...THAT is ALL you could find? The BEST that blacks can do? A secret shopper, assessment tools for customer experience, butt lifting pants, and jewelry...

Yup...they're surely our equal...just FULL of Newtons and Einsteins.

The 1% of blacks and this is it...their great achievements.

How about the OTHER 99% who don't amount to sh!t? What about them? How come you never bring up the 99%? The ones who live by MLK Blvd...the one's YOU are AFRAID to go visit...there's no way I could get ANY of you liberals here to walk down MLK Blvd in St Louis or Chicago, or Detroit...but I DEFY you to find a road that is in a 99% white town like the villages where a black can't walk in PERFECT safety.

You are protecting another species that would like to see you gone.

You write in all caps...you call me vile things...and you're completely, 100% wrong.

Why do YOU Rocky HAVE to defend them? Why can't they defend themselves? You defend them like they're children or retarded...because compared to US...they ARE.

I'm trying to get you to open up your eyes so we don't lose this FORMERLY great country to Mexicans/blacks.
